Rewrite and restructure readme files
This changeset updates the outdated README.md in meta-agl-demo. We also introduce a split between the README.md which describes the layer itself and a README-AGL.md (part of meta-agl) which contains the information on the AGL distribution.

-Downloading the Source
---------------------
-You can use repo tool to get all layers which are needed to build AGL Distribution.
-
-1. Installing Repo. Make sure you have a bin/ in your $HOME and it's included in your $PATH.
- $ mkdir ~/bin
- $ export PATH=~/bin:$PATH
-
- Download the repo tool.
- $ curl https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo
- $ chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
-
-2. Preparing download. Create an empty directory to hold all recipes and build environment. You can make it as any name you like.
- $ mkdir WORKING-DIRECTORY
- $ cd WORKING-DIRECTORY
-
-3. Getting all layers.
- $ repo init -u https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/AGL/AGL-repo
- $ repo sync
-
-Build a QEMU image
-------------------
-
-You can build a QEMU image using the following steps:
-
-1. Set up environment: You can specify any name for directory which storing all stuffs to build.
- $ source meta-agl/scripts/envsetup.sh qemux86-64 [BUILD_DIR]
-
-2. Build the full image of AGL Demo Platform and applications
- $ bitbake agl-demo-platform
-
- 2a. If you want to run QEMU directly as VM in Virtual Box or your other favorite VM software then add this line to your "conf/local.conf" file.
-IMAGE_FSTYPES += "vmdk"
-
- 2b. The Weston IVI-Shell always gets built ; it will not be started, however, unless you specify the following in your "conf/local.conf" file :
-
-IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " \
- weston-ivi-shell-config \
- "
- or you manually overwrite the "/etc/xdg/weston/weston.ini" file with a correct one.
-
-3. Run the emulator. The path for the emulator (runqemu) was added during the envsetup.
- $ cd tmp/deploy/images/qemex86-64
- $ runqemu bzImage-qemux86-64.bin agl-demo-platform-qemux86-64.ext3
-
- For large screen:
- $ runqemu bzImage-qemux86-64.bin agl-demo-platform-qemux86-64.ext3 \
- bootparams="uvesafb.mode_option=1280x720-32"
-
- To extend the amount of memory, add to runqemu:
- qemuparams="-m 512"
-
- To separate console from VGA screen (to avoid corrupt screen while booting),
- add to runqemu:
- serial
-
- or use the virtual disk in Virtual Box from this location:
- tmp/deploy/images/qemux86-64/agl-demo-platform-qemux86-64.vmdk
-
-4. Some weston samples are available from weston terminal.
-
-
-
-
-Build a R-Car M2 (porter) image
--------------------------------
-
-#### Obtain and Install Renesas Graphics/Multimedia Drivers
-
-1. Download packages from Renesas
-
- The graphics and multimedia acceleration packages for the R-Car M2 Porter board
- can be download directory from [here](http://www.renesas.com/secret/r_car_download/rcar_demoboard.jsp).
-
- There are 2 ZIP files can be downloaded.
- * Multimedia and Graphics library which require registeration and click through license
- > r-car_series_evaluation_software_package_for_linux-*.zip
- * Related Linux drivers
- > r-car_series_evaluation_software_package_of_linux_drivers-*.zip
-
- These 2 files from Renesas should be store in your download directory in $HOME. (e.g. $HOME/Downloads) If not, envsetup.sh in below will stop and show some instruction, then please follow it.
-
-#### Build from the Source code
-
-You can build a R-Car2 M2 (porter) image using the following steps:
-
-1. Set up environment: You can specify any name for directory which storing all stuffs to build.
- $ source meta-agl/scripts/envsetup.sh porter [BUILD_DIR]
-
-2. (Optional) If you want to install various Qt5 examples, add below
- configuration to your local.conf.
- IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " \
- packagegroup-agl-demo-qt-examples \
- "
- PACKAGECONFIG_append_pn-qtbase = " examples"
-
- IMPORTANT NOTE:
- To run examples with wayland-egl plugin,
- use ``LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libEGL.so <command>``.
- If not, programs should not launch by error,
- 'EGL not available'.
-
-3. (Optional) If you want to use multimedia accelerations, uncomment
- manually 4 `IMAGE_INSTALL_append_porter` in conf/local.conf.
- #IMAGE_INSTALL_append_porter = " \
- # gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad-waylandsink \
- # "
-
- #IMAGE_INSTALL_append_porter = " \
- # gstreamer1.0-plugins-base-videorate \
- ...
- #"
-
- #IMAGE_INSTALL_append_porter = " \
- # libegl libegl-dev libgbm-dev \
- ...
- # "
-
- #IMAGE_INSTALL_append_porter = " \
- # packagegroup-rcar-gen2-multimedia \
- ...
- # "
-
- Also it is needed to uncomment this,
- #MACHINE_FEATURES_append = " multimedia"
-
- This `multimedia` enables meta-renesas's multimedia configuration.
- The version of GStreamer1.0 which AGL distro use, will be changed
- to 1.2.3 (meta-renesas prefers) from 1.4.1(meta-agl default) by this switch.
-
-4. Build the full image of AGL Demo Platform and applications
- $ bitbake agl-demo-platform
-
-### Deployment (SDCARD)
-
-NOTE: These instructions are based on GENIVI wiki, [here](http://wiki.projects.genivi.org/index.php/Hardware_Setup_and_Software_Installation/koelsch%26porter#Deployment_.28SDCARD.29).
-
-#### Instructions on the host
-
-1. Format SD-Card and then, create single EXT3 partition on it.
-
-2. Mount the SD-Card, for example `/media/$SDCARD_LABEL`.
-
-3. Copy AGL root file system onto the SD-Card
- 1. Go to build directory
- $ cd $AGL_TOP/build/tmp/deploy/images/porter
- 2. Extract the root file system into the SD-Card
- $ sudo tar --extract --numeric-owner --preserve-permissions --preserve-order \
- --totals --directory=/media/$SDCARD_LABEL --file=agl-demo-platform-porter.tar.bz2
- 3. Copy kernel and DTB into the `/boot` of the SD-Card
- $ sudo cp uImage uImage-r8a7791-porter.dtb /media/$SDCARD_LABEL/boot
-
-4. After the copy finished, unmount SD-Card and insert it into the SD-Card slot of the porter board.
-
-#### Instructions on the target board
-
-NOTE: There is details about porter board [here](http://elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/Porter).
-
-NOTE: To boot weston on porter board, we need keyboard and mouse. (USB2.0 can be use for this)
-
-##### Change U-Boot parameters to boot from SD card
-
-1. Power up the board and, using your preferred terminal emulator, stop the board's autoboot by hitting any key.
-
- > Debug serial settings are 38400 8N1. Any standard terminal emulator program can be used.
-
-2. Set the follow environment variables and save them
- => setenv bootargs_console console=ttySC6,${baudrate}
- => setenv bootargs_video vmalloc=384M video=HDMI-A-1:1024x768-32@60
- => setenv bootcmd_sd 'ext4load mmc 0:1 0x40007fc0 boot/uImage;ext4load mmc 0:1 0x40f00000 boot/uImage-r8a7791-porter.dtb'
- => setenv bootcmd 'setenv bootargs ${bootargs_console} ${bootargs_video} root=/dev/mmcblk0p1 rw rootfstype=ext3;run bootcmd_sd;bootm 0x40007fc0 - 0x40f00000'
- => saveenv
-
-##### Boot from SD card
-
-1. After board reset, U-Boot is started and after a countdown, ...
- Linux boot message should be displayed. Please wait a moment.
-2. Then weston is booted automatically, and weston-terminal appears.
-
-3. Have fun! :)
-
-4. (Optional) This is how to test and play multimedia contents with acceleration.
-
- 1. Boot porter without mouse and keyboard, it avoid to boot weston automatically.
- For now, when running weston, V4L2 deosn't work correctly, so we have to
- stop weston first (GST plugin `waylandsink` also doesn't work correctly for now).
-
- 2. Execute these instructions:
- $ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib:"
-
- # Set the mixer
- $ amixer set "LINEOUT Mixer DACL" on
- $ amixer set "DVC Out" 10
-
- $ modprobe -a mmngr mmngrbuf s3ctl uvcs_cmn vspm fdpm
-
- $ media-ctl -d /dev/media0 -r
- $ media-ctl -d /dev/media0 -l '"vsp1.2 rpf.0":1 -> "vsp1.2 uds.0":0 [1]'
- $ media-ctl -d /dev/media0 -l '"vsp1.2 uds.0":1 -> "vsp1.2 wpf.0":0 [1]'
- $ media-ctl -d /dev/media0 -l '"vsp1.2 wpf.0":1 -> "vsp1.2 lif":0 [1]'
- $ media-ctl -d /dev/media0 -V '"vsp1.2 rpf.0":0 [fmt:AYUV32/1920x1080]'

- $ media-ctl -d /dev/media0 -V '"vsp1.2 wpf.0":0 [fmt:AYUV32/640x480]'
- $ media-ctl -d /dev/media0 -V '"vsp1.2 wpf.0":1 [fmt:ARGB32/640x480]'
- $ media-ctl -d /dev/media0 -V '"vsp1.2 lif":0 [fmt:ARGB32/640x480]'
-
- # in caes R-Car M2 (HDMI - DU1 - vspd0)
- $ modetest -M rcar-du -s 10@8:1280x720@AR24 -d -P '8@19:640x480+100+200@XR24' &

-### Deployment (TFTP/NFS)
-
-NOTE: These instructions are based on Embedded Linux Wiki, [here](http://www.elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/Yocto#Loading_kernel_via_TFTP_and_rootfs_via_NFS). And a Debian (wheezy, ip: 192.168.30.70) is used as the host for this instructions.
+* `agl-demo-platform` is the full image of the AGL Demo Platform with all applications
-#### Instructions on the host
-1. Setup a TFTP server
- 1. Install necessary packages
- $ sudo apt-get install tftp tftpd-hpa
- 2. Go to build directory, and copy kernel and DTB into TFTP server root (default server dir: /srv/tftp)
- $ cd $AGL_TOP/build/tmp/deploy/images/porter
- $ sudo cp uImage uImage-r8a7791-porter.dtb /srv/tftp
- 3. Verify TFTP server is working
- $ ls uImage
- ls: cannot access uImage: No such file or directory
- $ cd /tmp/
- $ tftp 192.168.30.70
- tftp> get uImage
- Received 3583604 bytes in 0.2 seconds
- tftp> q
- $ ls uImage
- uImage
-
-2. set NFS server
- 1. Install necessary packages
- $ sudo apt-get install nfs-kernel-server nfs-common
- 2. Go to build directory, and extract the root file system into a dedicated directory (here we use /nfs/porter)
- $ cd $AGL_TOP/build/tmp/deploy/images/porter
- $ sudo mkdir -p /nfs/porter
- $ sudo tar --extract --numeric-owner --preserve-permissions --preserve-order \
- --totals --directory=/nfs/porter --file=agl-demo-platform-porter.tar.bz2
- 3. Edit /etc/exports
- $ sudo vi /etc/exports
- Add
- /nfs/porter *(rw,no_subtree_check,sync,no_root_squash,no_all_squash)
- Save the file and exit.
- 4. Restart nfs service
- $ sudo service nfs-kernel-server restart
- 5. Verify NFS server is working
- $ sudo mount -t nfs 192.168.30.70:/nfs/porter /tmp/
- $ ls /tmp
- bin boot dev etc home lib media mnt proc run sbin sh-thd-430987335390 sys tmp usr var
