The version of this firmware provided by linux-firmware is 7.45.41.26. This version seems to have connectivity issues when bonding interfaces. Raspbian included an updated version (7.45.41.46) which tested, proved to fix this problem (see https://github.com/resin-os/meta-resin/issues/812). The version Raspbian is providing is not yet in linux-firmware as they have it directly from Cypress (see https://github.com/RPi-Distro/repo/issues/88). Besides the issue described above, it fixes various other issues including a broadpwn fix. Hopefully this version, or a newer one, will end up in upstream soon. In order to catch when that happens and stop overwriting this firmware, a check is added in the racipe based on the md5sum of the current shipped firmware. In terms of ditribution license, we got an informal one in the github thread mentioned above. Signed-off-by: Andrei Gherzan <andrei@gherzan.com>

Description
This is the general hardware specific BSP overlay for the RaspberryPi device.
More information can be found at: http://www.raspberrypi.org/ (Official Site)
The core BSP part of meta-raspberrypi should work with different OpenEmbedded/Yocto distributions and layer stacks, such as:
- Distro-less (only with OE-Core).
- Angstrom.
- Yocto/Poky (main focus of testing).
Dependencies
This layer depends on:
-
URI: git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
- branch: master
- revision: HEAD
-
URI: git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded
- layers: meta-oe, meta-multimedia, meta-networking, meta-python
- branch: master
- revision: HEAD
Quick Start
- source poky/oe-init-build-env rpi-build
- Add this layer to bblayers.conf and the dependencies above
- Set MACHINE in local.conf to one of the supported boards
- bitbake rpi-hwup-image
- dd to a SD card the generated sdimg file (use xzcat if rpi-sdimg.xz is used)
- Boot your RPI.
