-OpenEmbedded/Yocto BSP layer for Toradex modules
-================================================
+OpenEmbedded/Yocto BSP Layer for Toradex Modules Based on NXP SoCs
+==================================================================
-This layer provides support for the ARM based Toradex COMs
-featuring NVIDIA Tegra, Freescale Vybrid and Freescale i.MX6 SOCs.
+This layer provides support for ARM based Toradex computer on modules (COM)
+featuring NXP i.MX6, i.MX7, and Vybrid SoCs for use with OpenEmbedded
+and/or Yocto.
For more information on available Toradex COMs please visit:
https://www.toradex.com/computer-on-modules
+The layer amends to the community BSP in meta-fsl-arm and meta-fsl-arm-extra.
+It contains stuff which has not yet been upstreamed to the community BSP.
-This layer is a BSP and image layer, containing machines for Toradex
-modules, Toradex specific user space applications and customised
-Ångström/LXDE based images.
-For information on how to use the modules with Linux and instructions
-on how to build the angstrom based demo images please visit:
-http://developer.toradex.com/software-resources/arm-family/linux/board-support-package
-
-For support, visit the Toradex Developer Community:
-https://www.toradex.com/community
-
-Note: It is planned to split this layer. A BSP layer for the Tegra
-based COMs, the recipes related to Freescale based COMs moved to
-meta-fsl-arm-extra and a layer for the demo images.
