+meta-agl-demo, the Yocto layer for DEMO platform of Automotive Grade Linux
+==========================================================================
+
+The yocto layer 'meta-agl-demo' provides a demo platform and applications
+of AGL Distribution.
+
+AGL is creating an automotive specific Linux distribution that unifies
+the software that has been written in a number of places already,
+such as GENIVI and Tizen IVI.
+
+The AGL community appreciates feedback, ideas, suggestion, bugs and
+documentation just as much as code. Please join the irc conversation
+at the #automotive channel on irc.freenode.net and our mailing list.
+
+For infomation for subscribing to the mailing list
+ [automotive-discussions](http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/automotive-discussions)
+For information about AGL Distribution, see the
+ [AGL Distribution](https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/agl-distro)

+AGL Demo Platform's package group design:
+
+Top-level packagegroup,
+> packagegroup-agl-appfw (all packages for demo platform)
+
+This package group can contain sub-package groups like these.
+> packagegroup-agl-appfw-graphics (for graphics subsystem)
+> packagegroup-agl-appfw-agl (for AGL App Fw subystem)
+> ...
+
+The "packagegroups-agl-appfw-*" will contain packages for application and
+frameworks.

+
+Build a R-Car M2 (porter) image
+-------------------------------
+
+### Software setup
+
+NOTE: These instructions are based on GENIVI wiki, [here](http://wiki.projects.genivi.org/index.php/Hardware_Setup_and_Software_Installation/koelsch%26porter). If these didn't work correctly especially around Renesas Binary Packages, please check there and updated instructions.
+
+#### Getting Source Code and Build image
+
+1. Create a directory for working, then go to there.
+ $ mkdir -p $HOME/ANYWHERE_YOU_WANT_TO_WORK_THERE
+ $ cd $HOME/ANYWHERE_YOU_WANT_TO_WORK_THERE
+ $ export AGL_TOP=`pwd`
+
+2. Get the meta data and checkout
+ $ git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
+ $ cd poky
+ $ git checkout 5f0d25152bac2d3798663a4ebfdd2df24060f153
+ $ cd -
+ $ git clone git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded
+ $ cd meta-openembedded
+ $ git checkout 853dcfa0d618dc26bd27b3a1b49494b98d6eee97
+ $ cd -
+ $ git clone https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/AGL/meta-agl
+ $ cd meta-agl
+ $ git checkout 56eb51bfe05a1dd7c3c49cb7465ed83b0a072c78
+ $ cd -
+ $ git clone https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/AGL/meta-renesas
+ $ cd meta-renesas
+ $ git checkout c28172567a6325f5692e5d33b1ae1c1e64e59ddf
+ $ cd -
+ $ git clone https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/AGL/meta-agl
+
+#### Obtain and Install Renesas Graphics 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
+
+2. Unzip the two downloads into a temporary directory.
+ $ cd $AGL_TOP
+ $ mkdir binary-tmp
+ $ cd binary-tmp
+ $ unzip PATH_TO_DOWNLOAD/r-car_series_evaluation_software_package_for_linux-*.zip
+ $ unzip PATH_TO_DOWNLOAD/r-car_series_evaluation_software_package_of_linux_drivers-*.zip
+
+ After this step there should be two files in binary-tmp:
+ * Multimedia and Graphics library
+ > R-Car_Series_Evaluation_Software_Package_for_Linux-*.tar.gz
+ * Related Linux drivers
+ > R-Car_Series_Evaluation_Software_Package_of_Linux_Drivers-*.tar.gz
+
+3. Extract 2 tar archives
+ $ tar xf R-Car_Series_Evaluation_Software_Package_for_Linux-*.tar.gz
+ $ tar xf R-Car_Series_Evaluation_Software_Package_of_Linux_Drivers-*.tar.gz
+
+4. Copy 2 files manually
+ 1. Locate `EVA_r8a7791_linux_sgx_binaries_gles2.tar.bz2` in the Multimedia and Graphics library deliverable and copy it into the BSP layer.
+ $ cd $AGL_TOP
+ $ cp <path_to_file>/EVA_r8a7791_linux_sgx_binaries_gles2.tar.bz2 \
+ meta-renesas/meta-rcar-gen2/recipes-graphics/gles-module/\
+ gles-user-module/r8a7791_linux_sgx_binaries_gles2.tar.bz2
+
+ 2. Locate `SGX_KM_M2.tar.bz2` in the related linux drivers deliverable and copy it into the BSP layer.
+ $ cp <path_to_file>SGX_KM_M2.tar.bz2 \
+ $ meta-renesas/meta-rcar-gen2/recipes-kernel/gles-module/gles-kernel-module
+
+#### Build from the Source code
+
+You can build a R-Car2 M2 (porter) image using the following steps:
+
+1. Export TEMPLATECONF to pick up correct configuration for the build
+ $ export TEMPLATECONF=$AGL_TOP/meta-renesas/meta-rcar-gen2/conf
+
+2. Run the following command:
+ $ cd $AGL_TOP
+ $ source poky/oe-init-build-env
+
+3. 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/$SDCARD_LABEL
+
+4. After the copy finished, unmount SD-Card and insert it into the SD-Card slot of the porter board.
+
+#### Instructions on the host
+
+NOTE: There is details about porter board [here](http://elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/Porter).
+
+NOTE: To boot weston on porter board, we need keyboard and mouse. (USB2.0 can be use for this)
+
+##### Change U-Boot parameters to boot from SD card
+
+1. Power up the board and, using your preferred terminal emulator, stop the board's autoboot by hitting any key.
+
+ > Debug serial settings are 38400 8N1. Any standard terminal emulator program can be used.
+
+2. Set the follow environment variables and save them
+ => setenv bootargs_console console=ttySC6,${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! :)
