`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). + + **NOTE:** Recipes from this layer will be integrated into the + `meta-agl` layer in the future. + +* `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/en/dev/reference/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/en/dev/reference/image-workflow-initialize-build-environment.html)" +section. + +Once you have included the AGL feature, you can build your image. -- cgit
