i am experimenting libgpiod with beaglebone yocto, i get the recipes from
https://github.com/openembedded/meta-openembedded/tree/master/meta-oe/recipes-support/libgpiod
after bitbake libgpiod i observe the some of libgpiod binaries such as gpiodetect, gpioinfo,gpioget,gpioset ,gpiomon,gpiofind is located at
/home/kjlau/yocto_build/build/tmp/work/cortexa8hf-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi/libgpiod/1.4.3-r0/image/usr/bin
May i know how to make it available in /usr/bin directory of begaglebone yocto?
Also, is it ok for me scp all those binaries from host to beaglebone /tmp and execute it? i tried execute gpioinfo, below is my result. Kindly correct me if i not suppose to do that. I was expecting result as shown in this link https://beagleboard.org/p/silver2row/the-new-character-device-idea-0968d6
root@beagleboneYocto:/tmp# ./gpioinfo

You still have to add the recipe to your image. This can be done with 'IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " libgpiod"' in the local.conf to start. A better place would be a image.bb file.
You can check slide 65 of the Yocto training of Bootlin.com for more info.
