meta-xilinx: remove subtree The meta-xilinx layer was used for a now-deleted EVB. Neither the EVB nor the meta-xilinx layer have been updated for the Yocto override syntax change and the meta-xilinx still doesn't have a hardknott or honister branch (or corresponding support). I've asked the Xilinx maintainer back in May on when a hardknott version would be supported and I was told "about a month from now". I followed up in August and was told "work is in progress". As of today there are still zero commits in meta-xilinx since January 2021. As such, I do not believe this layer is well-maintained and we have no specific use for it anymore. Remove it until someone finds a good reason to include it and the upstream shows signs of life.

OpenBMC is a Linux distribution for management controllers used in devices such as servers, top of rack switches or RAID appliances. It uses Yocto, OpenEmbedded, systemd, and D-Bus to allow easy customization for your platform.

Any build requires an environment set up according to your hardware target. There is a special script in the root of this repository that can be used to configure the environment as needed. The script is called setup
and takes the name of your hardware target as an argument.
The script needs to be sourced while in the top directory of the OpenBMC repository clone, and, if run without arguments, will display the list of supported hardware targets, see the following example:
$ . setup <machine> [build_dir] Target machine must be specified. Use one of: bletchley hr630 quanta-q71l centriq2400-rep hr855xg2 romulus dl360poc kudo s2600wf e3c246d4i lanyang stardragon4800-rep2 ethanolx mihawk swift evb-ast2500 mtjade thor evb-ast2600 neptune tiogapass evb-npcm750 nicole transformers evb-zx3-pm3 olympus witherspoon f0b olympus-nuvoton witherspoon-tacoma fp5280g2 on5263m5 x11spi g220a p10bmc yosemitev2 gbs palmetto zaius gsj qemuarm
Once you know the target (e.g. romulus), source the setup
script as follows:
. setup romulus
bitbake obmc-phosphor-image

The OpenBMC community maintains a set of tutorials new users can go through to get up to speed on OpenBMC development out here
Commits submitted by members of the OpenBMC GitHub community are compiled and tested via our Jenkins server. Commits are run through two levels of testing. At the repository level the makefile make check
directive is run. At the system level, the commit is built into a firmware image and run with an arm-softmmu QEMU model against a barrage of CI tests.
Commits submitted by non-members do not automatically proceed through CI testing. After visual inspection of the commit, a CI run can be manually performed by the reviewer.
Automated testing against the QEMU model along with supported systems are performed. The OpenBMC project uses the Robot Framework for all automation. Our complete test repository can be found here.
Support of additional hardware and software packages is always welcome. Please follow the contributing guidelines when making a submission. It is expected that contributions contain test cases.
Issues are managed on GitHub. It is recommended you search through the issues before opening a new one.
First, please do a search on the internet. There's a good chance your question has already been asked.
For general questions, please use the openbmc tag on Stack Overflow. Please review the discussion on Stack Overflow licensing before posting any code.
For technical discussions, please see contact info below for Discord and mailing list information. Please don't file an issue to ask a question. You'll get faster results by using the mailing list or Discord.
