Hi,
Does anyone have any advice on how to add DTOs needed by libcamera to a
buildroot or Yocto build?
We'd like to add Kieran's DTOs
https://git.uk.ideasonboard.com/camera/dt-overlays/src/branch/main/arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale
to the buildroot default configuration for Debix Model A SBC
https://github.com/buildroot/buildroot/blob/master/configs/polyhex_debix_model_a_defconfig
Ideally we'd also like to add the overlays for the Sony IMX 708 Image
Sensor used in the RPi V3 camera but these aren't mainline:
https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/blob/rpi-6.12.y/arch/arm/boot/dts/overlays/imx708-overlay.dts
https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/blob/rpi-6.12.y/arch/arm/boot/dts/overlays/imx708.dtsi
We're planning to use the Debix Model A SBC or Debix SoM A with SoM A
I/O board to prototype a new open source wildlife camera for our work in
conservation of tree dwelling endangered dormice
https://new-homes-for-old-friends.cairnwater.com/
then after field studies with the prototype design a custom board for an
NXP i.MX 8M Plus SoM.
The analysis for the new open source wildlife camera is here:
