Hello and welcome to the forum,
yes the USB-Sticks, delivered with the Starterkits are always empty.
They are normally used to flash the release software, that you can download form your F&S-Download Area, to the boards.

There is a new Virtual Machine with Fedora30 in your download section available
(My F&S / Tools-Linux /VirtualMachines/Fedora30/32-bit (i.MX6, i.MX7)/ F_S_Development_Machine-Fedora_30_V2.3.ova).
The structure of the virtual machine is listed below.

Please see the file
https://www.fs-net.de/assets/d…MX7ULP_FirstSteps_eng.pdf
for a description of how everything is installed and used.
This is a major release for fsimx7ulp. fsimx7ulp is the software for all boards from F&S that are based on the i.MX 7ULP CPU from NXP. Currently
these are the modules PicoCoreMX7ULP. Further boards may be added to this family in the future. All these boards can work with software that is
created from this release package.
This release brings new versions to all parts of the software stack.
Here are some highlights of this release.
1. New emmc image layout
The fsimx7ulp target now uses the new F&S sysimg layout for eMMC.
A detailed description of this layout can be found in the chapter "Mass Storage Devices -> eMMC" of the Linux on F&S Boards documentary.
The old layout can still be applied using the fus-fsimx7ulp-legacy.wks.in at yocto-fus/sources/meta-fus/wic
2. The Uboot update script install.scr is now built with Yocto
The install script install.scr, which is used to install the boot imagesto the boards via USB/SD-card, is now build with Yocto.
The source file install.txt can be found at sources/meta-fus/recipes-config/images/files/install.txt in the Yocto directory.
The output install.scr can be found at tmp/deploy/images/fsimx7ulp/install.scr in the Yocto-Build directory.
3. The Cortex-M4 image is now added automatically to the sysimg boot partition
The Cortecx-M4 image "power-mode-switch" from the F&S FreeRTOS release V2020.03.1 is now automatically added to the boot partition of the sysimg.
The image can be exchanged by adapting the file yocto-fus/sources/meta-fus/recipes-bsp/m4-demos/fsimx-mcore-demos-2020.03.1.inc
4. New Uboot version 2018.03
The fsimx7ulp platforms now use the default F&S Uboot 2018.03 instead of the former imx-2017.03 version.
This brings a lot of features like the fsimage command to save a new U-Boot to flash without any additional parameters.
5. Support for the new F&S MIPI display
This release supports the new F&S 3.5" mipi display EE0350ET-2CP.
6. New Linux kernel 5.4.70
The Linux kernel is now based on version 5.4.70.
This release includes the kernel lockdown mode, intended to strengthen the boundary between UID 0 and the kernel; virtio-fs, a high-performance virtio
driver which allows a virtualized guest to mount a directory that has been exported on the host; fs-verity, for detecting file tampering, like dm-verity
but works on files rather than block devices; dm-clone, which allows live cloning of dm targets; two new madvise() flags for improved app memory
management on Android, support for new Intel/AMD GPUs, support for the exfat file system andremoving the experimental status of the EROFS file system;
a new haltpoll cpuidle driver and governor that greatly improves performance for virtualized guests wanting to do guest-side polling on the idle loop;
and blk-iocost, a I/O cgroup controller that attempts to calculate the cost of I/O more accurately.
As always, there are many other new drivers and improvements.

7. New Yocto Version 3.0 (Zeus)
Yocto Version 3.0 has many updated packages, for example Qt-5.15,busybox-1.31.0, wayland 1.18, weston-imx 9.0, imx-gpu-viv_6.4.3.p1.
and imx-gstreamer-1.16.2.
=========================================================================
The following list shows the most noticeable changes in this release in more detail since our last regular i.MX7ULP release. Please note that the
source code is also used for other platforms. This is why you will also find references to other CPU types and F&S boards here in the
changelog.

Documentation
-------------
- Update to version 1.3 of FSiMX7ULP_FirstSteps_eng.pdf
- Update to version 0.13 of LinuxOnFSBoards_eng.pdf
Please download the hardware documentation directly from our website.
Then you always have the newest version.
Please see the file
https://www.fs-net.de/assets/d…iMX6UL_FirstSteps_eng.pdf
for a description of how everything is installed and used.
This is the next regular major release for fsimx6ul. fsimx6ul is the software for all boards from F&S that are based on the i.MX6-UltraLite
and i.MX6ULL CPUs from NXP (or i.MX6UL and i.MX6ULL for short). Currently these are the modules efusA7UL, PicoCOM1.2, PicoCoreMX6UL,
PicoCoreMX6UL100 and PicoCOMA7. Further boards may be added to this family in the future.
All these boards can work with software that is created from this release package.
This release brings new versions to all parts of the software stack. Here are some highlights of this release.
1. This Release does not support the Silex WLAN chip on the modules efusA7UL
There is currently no driver avaialble for the Linux Kernel 5.4.70.
For Silex WLAN chip support, please use the release fsimx6ul-B2019.11.1
2. X11 is replaced by Weston/Wayland as graphical environment
NXP dropped the support for X11 in their latest GPU drivers and
replaced it with Weston/Wayland.
Modern programs do the rendering themselves, so there is no need anymore
for the X-Server with its' own graphic primitives.
The Wayland protocol offers a new approach, which uses a compositor to assemble
the single images of the application to a final screen.
This way graphical acceleration of GPUs can be integrated more efficiently.
Weston is the reference implementation of such a compositor.
The Wayland image can be build using the fsimx6_wayland_defconfig, which
replaces the old fsimx6_std_defconfig.
Old X11 applications can still run on the XWayland compositor, which can be build
using the fsimx6_xwayland_defconfig.
However X11 3D acceleration is still not supported on Xwayland.
Here, the native Wayland backend has to be used.
Another disadvantage is, that screen sharing (like with XVNC) isn't that easy
anymore. There is a solution to unsing the RTP protocol, but this allows only for
a remote desktop, not sharing of the desktop.
3. Uboot is now built with Buildroot
Analogous to the Linux kernel, the Uboot is now built by Buildroot, too.
Buildrooot will look for a directory named u-boot-fsimx6ul in the build
directory (which can also be a link) and source it to uboot-custom.
Changes made to u-boot-fsimx6ul will also apply to the Buildroot uboot.
The final uboot.nb0 will be placed in output/images/
4. The Uboot update script install.scr is now built with Buildroot
The install script install.scr, which is used to install the boot images
to the boards via USB/SD-card, is now build with Buildroot.
The source file install.txt can be found and board/f+s/common/install.txt
in the buildroot directory. Another install.txt can be used by setting the
variable INSTALL_TXT_PATH in the boards finalscript_* file to a new path.
The output install.scr can be found at output/images/install.scr.
5. Update to Buildroot 2021.02.10
Buildroot 2021.02 has many many updated packages, for example Qt-5.12.2,
busybox-1.33.2, wayland 1.18, weston-imx 9.0 and imx-gstreamer-1.16.2.
We actually use buildroot-2021.02.10, which is a newer version that already
has some more fixes.
6. New Linux kernel 5.4.70
The Linux kernel is now based on version 5.4.70.
This release includes the kernel lockdown mode, intended to strengthen the
boundary between UID 0 and the kernel; virtio-fs, a high-performance virtio
driver which allows a virtualized guest to mount a directory that has been
exported on the host; fs-verity, for detecting file tampering, like dm-verity
but works on files rather than block devices; dm-clone, which allows live
cloning of dm targets; two new madvise() flags for improved app memory
management on Android, support for new Intel/AMD GPUs, support for the exfat
file system andremoving the experimental status of the EROFS file system;
a new haltpoll cpuidle driver and governor that greatly improves performance
for virtualized guests wanting to do guest-side polling on the idle loop;
and blk-iocost, a I/O cgroup controller that attempts to calculate the cost
of I/O more accurately.
As always, there are many other new drivers and improvements.
[https://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_5.4]
7. New toolchain fs-toolchain-9.3-armv7ahf
It showed that some packages needed newer Kernelheaders to compile.
So we have updated the toolchain again. Please use this new
toolchain together with the code of this release.
Remark: When changing the toolchain, you should always clear the
compiler cache, e.g.
rm -r ~/.ccache ~/.ccache-buildroot
Otherwise, the compiler may mix up precompiled code from the cache with
newly compiled code, causing strange runtime errors.
=========================================================================
The following list shows the most noticable changes in this release in
more detail since our last regular i.MX6UL release (not counting the
intermediate release for PicoCoremX6UL). Please note that the source
code is also used for other platforms. This is why you will also find
references to other CPU types and F&S boards here in the changelog.

Hello,
i cant't find anything wrong in your DTS.
Do you have a Efus-STINF available to check if its working there and if yes, which revision?
Do you have another EfusA7ULL for double checking?
Your F&S Support Team
Hello,
we have tested GPIO1_IO12 on the Efus-STINF with your settings and it works.
Are you using your own Baseboard or the Efus-STINF ?
Could you add a copy of your device tree to your awnser?
Your F&S Support Team
Hello and welcome to the forum
Did you also disable the sound-sgtl5000 node?
There is a reference to the sai2 node and maybe this triggers the pinctrl_sai2, which would reconfigure the pin to SAI2_TX_SYNC
We will test this our self as soon as we can get to it.
Your F&S Support Team
Hello,
to use the Yocto toolchain, you fist have to setup the environment so the Toolchain knows where to look for the includes.
This can be done by executing the setup script, delivered with the meta-toolchain package like this.
source /opt/fus-imx-wayland/5.4-zeus/environment-setup-aarch64-poky-linux
Then you can compile your program in the same terminal running:
$CC -o test test.c
There is a special Yocto Plugin for Eclipse, which helps configuring the environment there.
The following link describes how to install and configure it
https://www.yoctoproject.org/d…t-manual.html#adt-eclipse
We will add this to out documentation.
Your F&S Support Team.
Hello,
Yocto builds its own toolchain, so we don't add our toolchain to the release.
You can build the Yocto toolchain for external usage by running
bitbake meta-toolchain
Then you will have to install the toolchain-sdk
./tmp/deploy/sdk/fus-imx-[...]-toolchain-5.4-zeus.sh
Unfortunately, only the default path at /opt is supported right now.
You should find the gdb at
/opt/fus-imx-wayland/5.4-zeus/sysroots/x86_64-pokysdk-linux/usr/bin/aarch64-poky-linux/aarch64-poky-linux-gdb
The path may differ a bit, depending on your Yocto configuration.
I hope this helps

Hello Mike,
unfortunately CAN-FD is not supported in platforms with i.MX6 processors.
Your F&S Support Team
Hello,
unfortunately, we were not able to reproduce this.
What exactly do you mean by "occasionally"?
Could you describe a exact way to reproduce this issue?
Does it also occur when use a 3v3 power adapter instead of a battery?
Your F&S Support Team
There was a problem in our production line for the new release fsimx6-B2021.10.1. The bootcmd variable was overridden with 'fastboot 0'.
This is fixed now, but i.MX6-boards, which were delivered between 27.10.2021 and 24.11.2021 may have this issue.
When trying to boot the board the following error mesage will occur
Unknown command 'fastboot' - try 'help'
The best way to fix this is executing the following command e.g in your Install/Update script or from the uboot command line:
This will reset bootcmd to the default value. Be sure
is executed afterward.
This is also necessary if you install the Uboot with the MFG-Tool or the NetDCU-USB-Loader and start the Uboot right away, without reset,
Customers who received preinstalled Uboots with this error will be informed.
Please excuse the inconvenience.
