This wiki provides step-by-step guidance for compiling an image specifically for the Hailo-15 device.

Step 1: Install Required Packages

To get started, run the following command to install the necessary dependencies:

sudo apt install python3-pip chrpath diffstat gawk zstd lz4 kas

Make sure you have administrative privileges to execute this command successfully.

Step 2: Clone the git repository

Next, clone the Git repository and navigate to the release folder by executing the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/hailo-ai/meta-hailo-soc.git 

cd meta-hailo-soc

This will create a local copy of the repository and change your working directory to the meta-hailo-soc folder.

Step 3: First-Time Build

To initiate the first-time build and configure the default environment, run the following command:

kas build kas/hailo15-evb.yml

To initiate the first-time build for the Hailo15-SBC board, run the following command:

kas build kas/hailo15-sbc.yml

The .yml file specifies the target board for the build.

Note: This command only needs to be run once.

Step 4: Source the Build Environment

To set up the build environment, execute the following command:

source poky/oe-init-build-env

This command will prepare the necessary environment variables for the build process.

Step 5: Compile the image

To compile the image, use the following command with BitBake:

bitbake core-image-minimal

Or, if you only want to compile the kernel, you can run:

bitbake linux-yocto-hailo

Or if you want to compile the full development image, you can run:

bitbake core-image-hailo-dev
