I am very interested in moving from LTIB to Yocto for an i.MX6SL project
we currently have.
Is there support at this time for the i.MX6SL-EVK? If not I suppose I
need to learn about modifying BSP's.
Any information is appreciated.
Thanks
Mike Urbaniak

Not yet. But it should be something like 3 or 4 patches.
I replied almost the same question this week on imx-community, please,
take a look:

I can guide you

I am glad to learn it ;-)

Not at this moment as said by Daiane; it shouldn't be hard but it does
need to be done.

FWIW, the Yocto build for Nitrogen6X boots right up with a Solo
processor.
In order to get VPU acceleration, you'll need to copy in the
firmware file "vpu_fw_imx6d.bin" though.
The GPU seems to come right up.

We need to adapt to use the official kernel for the board.
I think it did work for your board because Boundary's U-Boot already
handles it however we currently use U-Boot 2013.01 by default here and
this still doesn't cope with the other variants of i.MX6 SoC.
What is the Boundary's plans for the kernel? A single kernel tree or
two (as done by FSL)?

Of course. The i.MX6SL-EVK will need both custom U-Boot and kernel.
My message was really for Nitrogen6X customers that might
be interested in evaluating the performance of Solo or Dual-Lite
CPUs.

Yep. This is a benefit of booting to SPI-NOR.

Single kernel.
We did this by creating "pads-mx6_sabrelite.h" and including it
twice: once for Dual/Quad and again for Solo/Dual-Lite:
https://github.com/boundarydevices/linux-imx6/blob/boundary-imx_3.0.35_1.1.1/arch/arm/mach-mx6/board-mx6q_sabrelite.c#L124
This allows us to boot all of our SD cards on all of our boards.
We even have a boot script for Adeneo's Windows CE7 to make it
easy to swap.
Regards,
Eric
