romulus: drop meta-ibm from build default

Base hardware enablement support for meta-romulus is provided by
meta-romulus and meta-openpower.  meta-ibm adds advanced serviceability
functions for IBM branded products backed by the IBM service structure.

Romulus is a reference platform for ODMs and/or OEMS building POWER9
based systems.  End users cannot purchase support contracts for Romulus
systems.  As such remove meta-ibm from the build configuration in the
spirit of keeping the reference implementation mini and simplified.

At a functional level this removes the ibm-logging application from
images.

Note that meta-ibm can always be re-integrated by simply adding it to
bblayers.conf

(From meta-ibm rev: c8cb279e0a8e9d941d8a73f04496a81e0efd5501)

OpenBMC

Build Status

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.

Setting up your OpenBMC project

1) Prerequisite

  • Ubuntu 14.04
sudo apt-get install -y git build-essential libsdl1.2-dev texinfo gawk chrpath diffstat
  • Fedora 28
sudo dnf install -y git patch diffstat texinfo chrpath SDL-devel bitbake \
    rpcgen perl-Thread-Queue perl-bignum perl-Crypt-OpenSSL-Bignum
sudo dnf groupinstall "C Development Tools and Libraries"

2) Download the source

git clone git@github.com:openbmc/openbmc.git
cd openbmc

3) Target your hardware

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

MachineTEMPLATECONF
Palmettometa-ibm/meta-palmetto/conf
Zaiusmeta-ingrasys/meta-zaius/conf
Witherspoonmeta-ibm/meta-witherspoon/conf
Romulusmeta-ibm/meta-romulus/conf

As an example target Romulus

export TEMPLATECONF=meta-ibm/meta-romulus/conf

4) Build

. openbmc-env
bitbake obmc-phosphor-image

Additional details can be found in the docs repository.

OpenBMC Development

The OpenBMC community maintains a set of tutorials new users can go through to get up to speed on OpenBMC development out here

Build Validation and Testing

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.

Submitting Patches

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.

Bug Reporting

Issues are managed on GitHub. It is recommended you search through the issues before opening a new one.

Questions

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.
