I am thinking of packagegroups as a way to make life easier.  Graphics in particular is complicated, with some things working in one place and not another.  Graphics packagegroups can handle a lot of that so a common image recipe can easily work in multiple environments and new recipes can be created more easily without having to know every detail.  Having different levels allows an easy way to choose how much to include in a particular image.  Packagegroups are not specific to BSP or SDK or whatever.  They can be used wherever desired.

When we think about a set of packagegroups intended to give users a
set of useful packages or an example on how to group applications more
is more. As much as possible is good enough. (meta-fsl-demos)

However, when you think about a BSP packagegroup, less is more. As
less as possible, as much closer to only critical packages, the
minimal set, is the optimal packagegroup. (meta-fsl-arm)

Do we need BSP packagegroups?

In case we do, I cannot see the need of a BSP packagegroup for graphic
(GPU) or tools.

I would accept "tools" to be split into other sets like "audio", but
definitively not "tools".

In fact, I can only see the need of a VPU and a CAN package groups.
Maybe audio. But I'm trying to stress the BSP packagegroup idea here,
something I'm not completely convinced of.


Daiane
Each of those groups might be further divided into minimal, core, demos,
extended as needed.

Each packagegroup could check DISTRO-FEATURES, etc so that they would be as
generic as possible.

Then recipes could include the level of detail desired and they would work
across product lines.

Should BSP provide packagegroups to ease the addition (and removal) of
set o BSP packages, or their “functional” dependency. For example an
application such as aplay is needed to stress the audio functionality,
even though there is no dependency from alsa driver from kernel with
alsa-utils. Should BSP provide packagegroups?

I think offering packagegroup options to enable BSP pieces may really
ease the BSP usage, however I main point here is how far should BSP
go. What is the limit between a BSP packagegroup and a "demo"
packagegroup (as we does in meta-fsl-demos)?

Thinking about a package group to provide BSP packages related with
VPU, in my opinion it should have:

* VPU firmware
* VPU lib

In case I’m using gstreamer, I would like a packagegroup like:

* VPU firmware
* VPU lib
* gstreamer plugins for VPU (gstreamer-imx or gst1.0-fsl-plugin)

In case I’m using gstreamer with kernel mainline:

* VPU firmware
* gstreamer


Should mp3 encoder (such as lame) be part of a BSP packagegroup? And
in GPU case? Would DEPENDS and PROVIDES be enough to include needed
packages?

Should meta-fsl-arm (or meta-freescale) provide a bluetooth BSP
packagegroup even though there is no special hardware acceleration
provided by meta-fsl-arm for bluetooth?
