https://git.automotivelinux.org/AGL/meta-agl-devel/plain/docs/../meta-agl-devel.md?h=master ---- - -<!-- WARNING: This file is generated by fetch_docs.js using /home/boron/Documents/AGL/docs-webtemplate/site/_data/tocs/devguides/master/meta-agl-devel-guides-devguides-book.yml --> - -## Introduction - -The `meta-agl-devel` layer contains components that are being tested or -still in development. -The layer also contains software packages that Original Equipment -Manufacturers (OEMs) need but are not included in the AGL software. - -## Sub-Layers - -The `meta-agl-devel` layer contains the following files and sub-layers: - -``` -. -├── meta-agl-telemetry -├── meta-audio-4a-framework -├── meta-audio-soundmanager-framework -├── meta-egvirt -├── meta-gstrecorder-rcar-gen3 -├── meta-hmi-framework -├── meta-oem-extra-libs -├── README.md -├── templates -``` - -The following list provides a summary of these sub-layers: - -* `meta-agl-telemetry`: Provides the smallest AGL image. - The image is designed to be used when a device requires restricted - scope of responsibilites (e.g. collecting vehicle telemetry). - -* `meta-audio-4a-framework`: A collection of recipes used for the - first integration of 4A (i.e. Advanced AGL Audio Architecture). - -* `meta-pipewire`: A collection of recipes used for the integration - of the pipewire sound system. - -* `meta-audio-soundmanager-framework`: Supports the Soundmanager - Audio Framework features, which maps to the `agl-audio-soundmanager-framework` - AGL feature. - -* `meta-egvirt`: The AGL Virtualization Expert Group (EG-VIRT) layer. - This layer supports the design, test, implementation, and assessment - of virtualization technologies (e.g. containers, hypervisors, system - partitioners, and so forth) aimed at AGL ARMv8 and Intel platforms. - -* `meta-gstrecorder-rcar-gen3`: Supports streaming audio and video for - the Pro and Premier board kits (e.g. - [Renesas R-Car Starter Kit Pro Board](https://www.elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/M3SK) - and - [Renesas R-Car Starter Kit Premier Board](https://www.elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/H3SK)). - -* `meta-hmi-framework`: Provides AGL's Human Machine Interface (HMI) framework - through resource management consisting of sounds, windows, and input control. - For more information, see the - [HMI-Framework Page](https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/hmiframework) of the - AGL Wiki. - -* `meta-oem-extra-libs`: Provides libraries and software packages needed by - OEMs but not provided by the AGL software. - -* `templates`: Feature templates that support the `meta-agl-devel` layer. - -## Additional Sub-Layer Information - -This section provides additional information for the `meta-egvirt`, -`meta-oem-extra-libs`, and `meta-hmi-framework` layers. - -### Virtualization Support - -The `meta-egvirt` layer enables virtualization support in AGL. -The AGL Virtualization Expert (EG-VIRT) group is responsible -for design and implementation of AGL virtualization solutions -(.e.g the Virtualization platform architecture of AGL). -You can read about EG-VERT's efforts on the -"[Virtualization Expert Group's](https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/eg-virt)" -page of the AGL wiki. - -Additionally, you can learn more about virtualization as it applies to AGL -by reading -"[The Automotive Grade Linux Software Defined Connected Car Architecture](https://www.automotivelinux.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2018/06/agl_software_defined_car_jun18.pdf)" -whitepaper. - -### OEM Extra Libraries - -The `meta-oem-extra-libs` layer provides additional software packages many OEMs need -but are not part of the AGL source. -Following is the list of packages this layer provides: - - * boost - * fixesproto - * imagemagick - * iptables - * Xorg-macros - * zlib - * eglibc = glibc - * libcurl - * libgif - * libneon - * mongoose - * fuse - * protocol buffers - * bsdiff - * module-init-tools - * libcroco - * libtiff - * librsvg - * libpcap - -To add these packages to your library, you need to include the -`agl-oem-extra-libs` AGL feature when you initialize your build -environment using the `aglsetup.sh` script. - -For information on how to use the `aglsetup.sh` script to initialize -your build environment, see the -"[Initializing Your Build Environment](../getting_started/reference/getting-started/image-workflow-initialize-build-environment.html)" -section. - -Once you have included the AGL feature, you can build your image. - -### HMI Framework - -The `meta-hmi-framework` layer supports the Human-Machine Interface (HMI) Framework. -The HMI-Framework is the User Interface (UI) to control the Infotainment System. -Work continues to close the gap between the user experience of a smart phone -and the Infotainment System in a vehicle, for example. - -You can find more out about HMI Framework progress on the -"[HMI Framework](https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/hmiframework)" page on the AGL Wiki. - -To add HMI Framework support to your image, you need to include the -`hmi-framework` AGL feature when you initialize your build -environment using the `aglsetup.sh` script. - -For information on how to use the `aglsetup.sh` script to initialize -your build environment, see the -"[Initializing Your Build Environment](../getting_started/reference/getting-started/image-workflow-initialize-build-environment.html)" -section. - -Once you have included the AGL feature, you can build your image. |
