Rockchip Yocto
meta-rockchip, machine configs and building production images with the Yocto Project.
The meta-rockchip layer provides machine configurations, U-Boot and kernel recipes for many Rockchip SoCs and boards. Yocto suits products that need long-term maintenance, SBOMs, and strict control over every package.
Key points
- Start from a supported MACHINE in meta-rockchip, then create your own machine .conf for a custom board.
- Vendor-kernel features (NPU, MPP) need extra layers or recipes; mainline-based images are simpler.
- Generate wic images and flash them with rkdeveloptool or dd.
