op-build-env: warn when user forgets buildroot submodule If you don't have the buildroot submodule present, the build fails in a confusing way: op-build witherspoon_defconfig make: Entering directory '/home/benh/op-build/buildroot' make: *** No rule to make target 'witherspoon_defconfig'. Stop. make: Leaving directory '/home/benh/op-build/buildroot This change gives the user a better chance: $ . op-build-env Please make sure you've checked out the buildroot submodule git submodule init && git submodule update Signed-off-by: Joel Stanley <joel@jms.id.au>
The OpenPOWER firmware build process uses Buildroot to create a toolchain and build the various components of the PNOR firmware, including Hostboot, Skiboot, OCC, Petitboot etc.

To build an image for a Palmetto system:
git clone --recursive git@github.com:open-power/op-build.git cd op-build . op-build-env op-build palmetto_defconfig && op-build
There are also default configurations for other platforms in openpower/configs/
such as Habanero and Firestone.
Buildroot/op-build supports both native and cross-compilation - it will automatically download and build an appropriate toolchain as part of the build process, so you don't need to worry about setting up a cross-compiler. Cross-compiling from a x86-64 host is officially supported.
