buildroot: Move to 2017.08

All defconfigs are regenerated with the new buildroot version. GCC 6 and
Binutils 2.28 are now the default, so they are not specified in the
defconfig.

  busybox: 1.26.2 -> 1.27.1
  util-linux: 2.29.2 -> 2.30.1
  iprutils: 2.4.10.1 -> 2.4.14.1
  pciutils: 3.5.2 -> 3.5.5
  linux-firmware: 6d3bc8886517d171068fd1263176b8b5c51df204 -> a3a26af24e29c818ef9b5661856018e21a5c49fb

OpenPOWER Firmware Build Environment

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.

Development

Issues, Milestones, pull requests and code hosting is on GitHub: https://github.com/open-power/op-build

Building an image

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.

Dependencies for 64-bit Ubuntu/Debian systems

  1. Install Ubuntu (>= 14.04) or Debian (>= 7.5) 64-bit.

  2. Enable Universe (Ubuntu only):

     sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
