Nvidia Xavier AGX

Yocto Project on NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier

, ,
In this article we discuss how to get started with Nvidia Jetson AGX Xavier and build a minimal custom Linux distribution using the Yocto Project (YP) and OpenEmbedded (OE). At KOAN we are long time developers and users of the Yocto Project (since 2012) and OpenEmbedded (since 2009). Those open source projects are our favorite tools for creating customized distributions for IoT and AI.

Linux embedded development after the lockdown

, , ,
We are currently working to complete activities started before the lockdown but more surprisingly we started new projects too, because companies that want to remain competitive must take advantage of this moment for a rapid recovery. With our services we help companies as always and more than before by offering solutions to speed up their time to market. Here you can learn what we have been doing.

Yocto Project features survey

Yocto Project new features survey

Yocto Project can nowadays be considered the 'de facto' standard among the automated generation systems of embedded linux distributions. Experienced users appreciate the features offered by Yocto Project and its complete customization that allows to adapt it to any specific requirement. However, from the beginner's point of view, the situation is a bit more complicated due to the Yocto Project's particularly steep learning curve. The tools that can support the development with Yocto Project are Toaster, that allow the configuration of the builds through a web interface, and the 'extended SDK' (eSDK), based on Devtool which allows the system to be tuned or extended without editing configuration files.
Trusted bootchain

Secure Boot and Chain of Trust

,
Ensure your device is not running tampered software by verifying its authenticity before execution. Establish software authenticity all the way from the bootloader to user applications. Our secure boot services help implement: Verified bootloader (NXP i.MX / QorIQ, Qualcomm Snapdragon, TI Sitara, Atmel SAMA5, Xilinx Zynq and more) Kernel verification (FIT image, SoC specific mechanisms) Root filesystem verification (dm-verity, IMA/EVM, FIT image) Filesystem cryptography, Filesystem-level encryption (dm-crypt)

Yocto Project Meta Layer Linux STM32MP1 by Koan

Koan is proud to provide the unofficial Yocto Project BSP for STM32MP1 based boards. This project is not endorsed nor supported by ST. ST OpenSTLinux is based on OE, our BSP extends the use of ST meta layers with Yocto, using latest commits on the branch 2.6 ‘thud’ on each meta layer.
