Description Daiane 2012-12-13 11:13:17 UTC
This script is used to dump the clocks used on each board, it´s a great test tool.


Usually it´s copied in /unit_test, but I need to make sure where it´s from.
Comment 1 Otavio Salvador 2012-12-13 11:51:11 UTC
Good, please check where the script is available and we can package it.

happy new year! new year, new project for me! Hope you are all well.

Daine, 

the dump_clocks.sh script you mention is the one called clocks.sh on the freescale application note 4509, related to power consumption measurements?

Hi Daiane,

another comment, is meta-fsl-arm/recipes-core/packagegroup the correct place to place this clocks.sh script? I can also think on recipies-bsp/imx-test, but I am not sure which is the best place. Thanks for your help.

Comment 4 Daiane 2013-01-03 12:59:29 UTC
yes, it´s provided by imx-test.

So, I think it´s only a matter of include the script on installation process (on imx-test recipe).

In my point of view, it can be installed under /unit_test
Comment 5 Otavio Salvador 2013-01-03 21:49:26 UTC
But should it be installed for testing only? If it is the case we can have a imx-test-utils package and add it to packagegroup.

I am a bit confused right now, a bit overwhelming while understanding how yocto works...

Octavio,

you mean to create a imx-test-utils recipe/package, then another file on meta-fsl-arm/recipies-core/packagegroup-core-tools-testapps.bbappend to include the later package?

Tks for your help.
Comment 7 Otavio Salvador 2013-01-04 18:06:21 UTC
It all depends on how it ought to be used.

If this is going to be used just for FSL test, we can have 1 package with it. We have imx-test and we can add it there. If it ought to be used in other images (not together with imx-test) we can have it in a splitted package.

In either case, no need to another .bb recipe if it is in same source package.
