  • Integration of Multiple Build Types in RDK: Integrated various build types (e.g., debug, release, custom) using the multiconfig feature provided by yocto.
  • Submanifest Integration: Implemented submanifest integration within the RDK build system to enhance modularity and improve build efficiency. This involved restructuring build configurations to support submanifests, and developing tools to manage and orchestrate the build process with these new components.
  • State Cache Improvement: Optimized the state cache mechanism in the RDK build environment, resulting in significant improvements to build times, with a 50% deduction in build times. And also created sstate corruption preventing mechanism to prevent merging changes which corrupt sstate.
