Build Corstone-1000 software stack

The Trusted Firmware software stack uses the Yocto Project to build a tiny Linux distribution suitable for the Corstone-1000 platform.

Use your Linux development machine to build the software and run on the Corstone-1000 FVP.

Set up the build environment

Set up your build environment by installing the required software packages.

    

        
        
            sudo apt-get install -y git curl wget build-essential libssl-dev python3 python3-pip cmake make
        
    

You can review the Trusted Firmware Getting Started documentation for more information.
