Quick Start Guide

Armino AVDK SDK Code download

We can download Armino AVDK SDK from gitlab:

mkdir -p ~/armino
cd ~/armino
git clone -b release/v2.0.1 --recurse-submodules https://gitlab.bekencorp.com/armino/bk_avdk.git

We also can download Armino AVDK SDK from github:

mkdir -p ~/armino
cd ~/armino
git clone -b release/v2.0.1 --recurse-submodules https://github.com/bekencorp/bk_avdk.git

Then switch to the stable branch Tag node, such as v2.0.1.8:

cd ~/armino/bk_avdk
git checkout -B your_branch_name v2.0.1.8
git submodule update --init --recursive
ls

Note

The code on GitHub lags behind that on GitLab. GitLab is only open to corporate users. Please contact the corresponding person to apply.

Build Compilation Environment:

Note

Armino, currently supports compiling in Linux environment. This chapter willtake Ubuntu 20.04 LTS as an example to introduce the construction of the entire compiling environment.

Install Tool Chain

Click Download to download the BK7258 toolchain.

After downloading the tool kit, decompress it to ‘/opt/’:

$ sudo tar -xvjf gcc-arm-none-eabi-10.3-2021.10-x86_64-linux.tar.bz2 -C /opt/

Note

Tool chain the default path is configured in the middleware/soc/bk7258/bk7258.defconfig, you can modify CONFIG_TOOLCHAIN_PATH to set to your owner toolchain path:

CONFIG_TOOLCHAIN_PATH=”/opt/gcc-arm-none-eabi-10.3-2021.10/bin”

Install Depended libraries

Enter the following command in the terminal to install python3,CMake,Ninja:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential cmake python3 python3-pip doxygen ninja-build libc6:i386 libstdc++6:i386 libncurses5-dev lib32z1 -y
sudo pip3 install pycrypto click

Install python dependencies

Enter the following command to install python dependencies:

sudo pip3 install sphinx_rtd_theme future breathe blockdiag sphinxcontrib-seqdiag sphinxcontrib-actdiag sphinxcontrib-nwdiag sphinxcontrib.blockdiag

If you default Python is Python2, please set it to Python3:

sudo ln -s /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/python

Build The Project

Run following commands to build BK7258 default doorbell project:

cd ~/armino/bk_avdk
make bk7258

You can also build projects with PROJECT parameter, e.g. run “make bk7258 PROJECT=media/doorbell” can build projects/media/doorbell etc.

Configuration project

We can also use the project configuration file for differentiated configuration:

Project Profile Override Chip Profile Override Default Configuration
Example: config >> bk7258.defconfig >> KConfig
+ Example of project configuration file:
    projects/media/doorbell/config/bk7258/config
+ Sample chip configuration file:
    middleware/soc/bk7258/bk7258.defconfig
+ Sample KConfig configuration file:
    middleware/arch/cm33/Kconfig
    components/bk_cli/Kconfig

Create New project

The default project is projects/media/doorbell. For new projects, please refer to the project in projects/media/

Burn Code

On the Windows platform, Armino currently supports UART burning.

For detailed burning process, please refer to IDK
