Custom embedded Linux distributions

Yocto BSP Design, Build Optimization & CI/CD Integration for Embedded Linux Products

Custom Linux distributions require precision: selecting the right layers, tuning the build system, managing reproducibility, and keeping everything secure over the device’s lifetime. BayLibre’s Yocto experts build and maintain production-grade embedded Linux stacks for demanding OEMs around the world.

We create stable BSPs, optimize boot time and footprint, and ensure your Yocto-based platform integrates seamlessly with mainline Linux. We also help teams modernize legacy build systems and set up long-term maintenance plans that reduce fragmentation and prevent bit rot.

From board bring-up to CI/CD integration, we turn Yocto complexity into a stable foundation for your entire product line.

Our services include:

Yocto-based BSP design & customization for production platforms

Build optimization (boot time, footprint, reproducibility, security)

Mainline Linux integration & legacy modernization

CI/CD setup & long-term maintenance

Develop Yocto SDK for distribution by silicon vendors and OEMs
Harden Yocto deployments with Secure & Trusted boot and Secure Over-the-Air Updates
Create meta-layers & upstream them for our platform & hardware customers trying to increase adoption of their offerings
