meta-zaius: Remove mention of vcs-workaround This was a P9 DD1 workaround. These systems are no longer supported and are not found in the wild, so the workaround has been retired. Zaius opted to use it's own application for vcs control. We can now add that directly instead of overriding vcs workaround with vcs control.

The OpenBMC project can be described as a Linux distribution for embedded devices that have a BMC; typically, but not limited to, things like servers, top of rack switches or RAID appliances. The OpenBMC stack uses technologies such as Yocto, OpenEmbedded, systemd, and D-Bus to allow easy customization for your server platform.

Any build requires an environment variable known as TEMPLATECONF
to be set to a hardware target. You can see all of the known targets with find meta-* -name local.conf.sample
. Choose the hardware target and then move to the next step. Additional examples can be found in the OpenBMC Cheatsheet
Machine | TEMPLATECONF |

Palmetto | meta-ibm/meta-palmetto/conf |
Zaius | meta-ingrasys/meta-zaius/conf |
Witherspoon | meta-ibm/meta-witherspoon/conf |
Romulus | meta-ibm/meta-romulus/conf |
As an example target Romulus
export TEMPLATECONF=meta-ibm/meta-romulus/conf

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 IRC 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 IRC.
