meta-fsl-ivi, Freescale In-Vehicle Infotainment
=====================================================

This layer's purpose is to add specific Freescale support
for In-Vehicle Infotainment based on GENIVI meta-ivi layer

A distro configuration fsl-ivi-vfb: allows a user to enable
Freescale MXGAL graphics backend for the Genivi LayerManager.

The MXGAL graphics backend for the Genivi LayerManager enables the
composition tasks of LayerManager to be accellerated using the 2D
raster GPU present on the Freescale i.MX6 processors.
