initfs: Store whiltelist in a directory of files

Change the whiltelist definition to be files in a directory instead
of a single file.  This will allow us to store which files should
be saved in individual recipes and also supports comments in the
whitelist.

The actual split into separate files is deferred for prototyping
what assistance classes should look like to make the whitelist
(eg systemd service files); also the packages will need to be
added to the package list for the initramfs image.

Build Status

Building

OpenBMC uses Yocto/Open-Embedded for a build system, which supports an out-of-tree build. It is recommended that you create an empty directory somewhere to hold the build. This directory will get big.

On Ubuntu 14.04 the following packages are required to build the default target

sudo apt-get install -y git build-essential libsdl1.2-dev texinfo gawk chrpath diffstat

On Fedora 23 the following packages are required to build the default target:

sudo dnf install -y git patch diffstat texinfo chrpath SDL-devel bitbake
sudo dnf groupinstall "C Development Tools and Libraries"

To start a build:

cd <builddir>
. <repodir>/openbmc-env
bitbake obmc-phosphor-image
