BSP Layers and Reference Images for Yocto Project Issue Tracker

 

The following table contains known issues, scheduled bug fixes, and feature improvements for the Toradex BSP Layers and Reference Images for Yocto Project.

The tickets are split into two major states:

  • Submitted (open): new features and bug fixes for BSP versions that have not yet been released. They may be scheduled for a specific release version; not planned; or in our backlog. All of them have one of the following states:
    • Known Issue: a bug or unexpected behavior that has been reported and is pending a fix. Once fixed, the status will transition to Fixed.
    • Feature Request: a new feature that may be added to a future release. Once released, the status will transition to New Feature.
  • Released (closed): new features and bug fixes for BSP versions that have already been released. All of them have one of the following states:
    • Fixed: a bug that has been fixed and released.
    • New Feature: something that didn't exist before and was added to a new release.


Any schedules are not guaranteed but reflect the current planning. The planning could be shifted due to priority changes.

Issues that are scheduled for a specific version will be integrated into the mentioned version of the BSP.

We will update this table continuously in order to always provide the latest state of our development plan. Please see also the Linux Support Strategy to learn more about the different releases.

Description: Generating a legacy update media using Debian Stretch and subsequently updating an Apalis TK1 failed during mounting the root file system.

Workaround: We recommend using the Toradex easy installer on platforms where it is supported. For the legacy update procedure, the easiest is to use one of the supported distributions:

Other distributions may have the option metadata_csum enabled per default for mkfs.ext4 (Debian Stretch, Arch, ...). This option is not supported on Linux kernels below 3.18 and generates a kernel panic during boot after the legacy update. As a workaround, one can disable this option in /etc/mke2fs.conf before executing the update.sh script. The ext4 man page also has a list of options with their corresponding supported kernels, which may be helpful to refer to in case of legacy update attempts on more exotic systems.
