Adding functionality to SDK

Adding functionality to SDK

[Gary Thomas]

I have a basic image (similar to core-image-sato) that I've added
(on board) SDK to using packagegroup-core-sdk  & packagegroup-core-standalone-sdk-target.
This works pretty well but I've found some missing functionality.
In particular, I used it to build the kernel on my ARM board and
found the U-Boot 'mkimage' tool missing from the SDK.

How can I add this to my SDK build?  I'm interested in both
the specific answer of how to get the U-Boot utilities but
also how to include additional functionality in my SDK builds,
e.g. additional libraries, include files, etc.

I've looked through the reference manual and it seems to only
discuss cross-build SDK, not on-target SDK.

Thanks for any pointers

add the package (whichever provided mkimage ) to IMAGE_INSTALL
