create u-boot-fw-utils for our u-boot version This commit creates a class and recipie based on the upstream 2015 branch of u-boot and patches it with our fw_env.config. Having these tools for the initfs will allow us to modify the u-boot enviornment to do things like boot from network for update and set the bmc mac addresses in the environment for u-boot and use by the kernel. This commit is based on the upstream fw-utils commit. However, the initial commit was not creating target binaries. After commenting out the cross class support for creating host binaries to prepare an environment, a study of the u-boot Makefile showed that HOSTCC etc needed to be set. It is anticipated something to the commented lines will be necessary for merging upstream but this addresses our immediate use case. Signed-off-by: Milton Miller <miltonm@us.ibm.com>
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
