J721EXSOMXEVM: Can the storage requirement for the Yocto SDK build process be reduced?

zxj

Part Number: J721EXSOMXEVM

Hello,

I am using Yocto to build tisdk-adas-image and tisdk-default-image, and I noticed that the process requires downloading more than 13,000 intermediate components. However, my build environment has only 200GB of storage.

I noticed that the FAQ states that the image requires at least 250GB of storage space, but I only want to build an SDK with essential functionalities and do not need so many complex features. How can I build the image within the 200GB storage limit?

You can try following the recommendations here: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/5.0.8/dev-manual/disk-space.html#conserving-disk-space

You should also try building the minimal or base images instead of the adas/default images if you want less features.

Thank you for your reply. I tested the tisdk-base-image and successfully installed all the middleware.

However, I encountered the following issue during the process: After recompiling the kernel files, I deleted deploy-ti to ensure that the generated image is the latest. However, when I ran MACHINE="j721e-evm" bitbake -k tisdk-base-image again, I found that deploy-ti was not regenerated. Could you please explain why this happened?

My specific steps were: delete deploy-ti -> run ./conf/setdev -> execute the MACHINE command.

I was able to recreate your issue.

bitbake doesn't know that you deleted the deploy-ti directory, so it doesn't think it needs to rebuild the artifacts within the depoy-ti directory.

You will need to clean the recipes that generate the artifacts, and then rebuild the tisdk-base-image.

MACHINE=j721e-evm bitbake -c cleanall linux-ti-staging u-boot-ti-staging mc:k3r5:u-boot tisdk-uenv
MACHINE=j721e-evm bitbake tisdk-base-image

In the future, don't delete the deploy-ti directory. Instead, look at the last modified date of the generated artifacts.
