Embedded Linux Support for Yocto Project Development

Easier, faster Yocto Project based development

Timesys has decades of experience with embedded Linux development and support and is a founding member of the Yocto Project.  As part of our development solutions, we offer a unique Yocto Project development support service that enables you to bring your own BSP.  When you subscribe to our Yocto development support, we will help you throughout your product life cycle — starting from your proof of concept on a standard development kit BSP, to your custom BSP development for your custom hardware.

Bring Your Own BSP Support

Our “bring your own BSP” Yocto development support topics include:

  • Development environment/host setup issues
  • Yocto meta-layers issues
  • Build or configuration-related issues with libraries and packages
  • Run time issues

By reproducing the issue on the development kit or on your custom board, our engineers help you find the right set of patches, configuration settings, etc. related to booting the board, device driver operation, kernel configuration, networking connectivity, and more.

Additionally, we offer an optional Jump Start training to help you learn Yocto and bring you up to speed with building an embedded Linux device based on Yocto Project standards.
