The board support package includes the following components:
- U-Boot 2016.11
- Linux 4.9.3
- packages:
- alsa-utils for basic audio usage of the on-board headphone jack
and microphone
- iw and wpa_supplicant for managing the wireless interface
Two Linux patches are necessary to enable audio and wifi support. Both
patches are fetched from the Linux next branch and are probably mainlined in
Linux 4.11.
A Linux configuration fragment enables the wireless device driver, which
is not enabled by default in the mainline defconfig of the board.
The wifi chip needs a NVRAM configuration file which is provided in the
rootfs overlay.

DEVELOPERS file, remove C++ support.]

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
