At the risk of getting this all started again, I really hope meta-ti is one layer with BSP, SGX, DSP, WiFi support for our devices. > Well that was the proposal and why I figured you would barf all over it. I am OK with all the above in one layer (but separate dirs) if it all works with all the layer stack combinations we are targeting. The issue is we have no meta-ti+oe-core builds going on so we don't know where the dependencies will be hard to break. We all know the DSP support can get involved. If we got to the point where BSP and graphics worked with oe-core but DSP support needed meta-oe or something else, then I would want the DSP stuff in a separate layer so people that did not need it could opt out. Likewise people using TI WIFI on non-TI processors should be able to get that in any layer stack. If that all works with all the above in one layer thats fine. We just don't know yet. We can be optimistic and put it all in one layer or pessamistic and seperate them. In this example I am more inclined to believe that the other TI stuff would not cause problems. Koen: having a number of layers in on repo is a bad thing? You should tell the meta-oe maintainer because that guys has a good number of layers in there. :) Are you saying that was the wrong thing to do for meta-oe? Is there a leason learned?
