I'm trying to build a Mender Yocto image for my Raspberry Pi to have the possibility of remote updates.
I was following this instructions: https://docs.mender.io/1.0/artifacts/building-mender-yocto-image
Also, I added this layer: https://github.com/mendersoftware/meta-mender/tree/master/meta-mender-raspberrypi
My local.conf looks like:
KERNEL_IMAGETYPE = "uImage"
MENDER_PARTITION_ALIGNMENT_KB = "4096"
MENDER_BOOT_PART_SIZE_MB = "40"
IMAGE_DEPENDS_sdimg += " bcm2835-bootfiles"
# raspberrypi files aligned with mender layout requirements
IMAGE_BOOT_FILES_append = " boot.scr u-boot.bin;${SDIMG_KERNELIMAGE}"
IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " kernel-image kernel-devicetree"
MENDER_ARTIFACT_NAME = "release-1"
INHERIT += "mender-full"
MACHINE = "raspberrypi3"
DISTRO_FEATURES_append = " systemd"
VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_init_manager = "systemd"
DISTRO_FEATURES_BACKFILL_CONSIDERED = "sysvinit"
VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_initscripts = ""
IMAGE_FSTYPES = "ext4"
My bblayers.conf file looks like:
# POKY_BBLAYERS_CONF_VERSION is increased each time build/conf/bblayers.conf
# changes incompatibly
POKY_BBLAYERS_CONF_VERSION = "2"
BBPATH = "${TOPDIR}"
BBFILES ?= ""
BBLAYERS ?= " \

In additon to the answer from Drew I added:
In the poky folder I cloned the meta-raspberrypi layer:
git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-raspberrypi
Than I added the layer with:
bitbake-layers add-layer /meta-raspberrypi
and the dependencies
git clone git://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core
git clone git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded
add-layer ../openembedded-core
add-layer ../meta-openembedded
