Figure 1. Linux Components Selection
  • First stage boot loader
  • PMU firmware, for Zynq® UltraScale+™ MPSoC only
  • U-Boot
  • Kernel

For ATF, U-Boot, and kernel there are three available options:

Default
The default component is shipped through PetaLinux tool.
External source
When you have a component downloaded at any specified location, you can feed your component instead of the default one through this configuration option.
Note: The external source folder is required to be unique to a project and its user, but the content can be modified. If the external source is a git repository, its checked out state should be appropriate for building this project.
Remote
If you want to build a component which was on a custom git repository, this configuration option has to be used.
