Oh, I have to admit I'm pretty new to the concept of the native packages.
Where can I find the list of files that are considered to be installed into
a "native" packages sysroot?
An good option for me would be to eg. install the toolchain into the native
sysroots /opt/ dir for usage by other recipes.

For the TI recipe, no, I can't. I found it online and used it as a guide for
my first steps on the topic.

Can you point me to these ways? :)

I agree, though using linaro has the benefit that we would use the same
toolchain in yocto as in "regular development" of the m4 functionality.

Sounds like the sysroot filtering code doesn't know about this
directory and therefore doesn't pass it through to the recipe sysroot?
The recipe you link to is for an on target compiler, not one in the
sysroot.
I'm actually a little surprised you can't use our standard cross
compiler assuming this M4 core is on an ARM chip? It should be a case
of passing the right options to the compiler to target the M4?
Cheers,
Richard

[yocto] Issues adding bare meta toolchain to yocto build
Hey,
I'm having issues adding a build for a bare metal target to my yocto toolchain.
I've a NXP SoC with a M4 core and I would like to integrate the M4 binary build
into yocto.
My M4 binary has a CMAKE file that depends on ARMGCC_DIR being set to locate
the toolchain and everything works fine locally.
I've create a recipe for the toolchain that is heavily inspired by a TI recipe
for the gcc-arm-none-eabi (available here:
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-ti/tree/recipes-ti/devtools/gcc-arm-none-eabi_7-2018-q2-update.bb?h=master).
I've made sure that GCC_ARM_NONE_TOOLCHAIN_RECIPE is set.
After calling bitbake -cpopulate-sysroot gcc-arm-none-eabi-native the
image/${GCC_ARM_NONE_TOOLCHAIN_RECIPE} path contains the complete toolchain.
My M4 recipe looks like this (plus SUMMARY, LICENSE, SRC_URI, ...):
inherit pkgconfig cmake
DEPENDS = "gcc-arm-none-eabi-native"
S = "${WORKDIR}/git "
EXTRA_OECMAKE = '-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE="../armgcc.cmake" \
-G "Unix Makefiles" \
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=release'
>From my understanding depending on gcc-arm-none-eabi-native should result in
>the native toolchain being installed into the m4's recipe-sysroot-native
>folder.
The sysroot-providers in the recipe-sysroot-native folder does list
gcc-arm-none-eabi-native, but I don't get the files and therefore have no
toolchain.
Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong or how to debug this further?
Best regards, Olli
