[Buildroot] Binary ATI driver package in buildroot

[Allan W. Nielsen]

Hey

I would like to use ATI's binary device drivers in my buildroot project. I have
therefore created the package fglrx. Right now it will only work for 64bit, and
it does not detect of the target system is x86 or not. These things should
of cause be fixed if the package are to be included in buildroot.

My question is whether such a package should exist in buildroots repository or
not.

Also, I would like comments if this is the right way to build and include
external binary device drivers. (Sorry, I'am still new to hacking buildroot)

[Buildroot] [PATCH] fglrx: Added package for ATI's binary device driver

[Allan W. Nielsen]

 TODO:
   - Change the install script to work for 32bit systems as well as for 64bit
   - This package sould require that the target system is x86

If the driver is architecture-dependent, then you can just make the
package depends on BR2_x86_64 for example.

If it is useful, then I think it should be part of Buildroot.

We don't have that many binary device drivers, so there isn't yet any
good practice in Buildroot on how to package them.

However, your package does not use the GENTARGETS infrastructure, which
it should do. We don't include packages that don't rely on one of the
GENTARGETS, AUTOTARGETS or CMAKETARGETS infrastructure.

Regards!

Unfortunately for the moment, it is not possible to override the
extraction step of a package by defining the <pkg>_EXTRACT_CMDS
variable. Buildroot asumes that each package is a tarball that can be
extracted as usual.

There are however several packages (usually non-open source stuff) with
strange extraction needs, so it would be great to be able to override
this step.

As a hack, you can do something like:

$(BUILD_DIR)/dhrystone-$(DHRYSTONE_VERSION)/.stamp_extracted:
        @$(call MESSAGE,"Extracting")
        $(Q)mkdir -p $(@D)
        $(Q)cd $(@D) && $(SHELL) $(DL_DIR)/$($(PKG)_SOURCE)
        $(Q)cp $($(PKG)_DIR_PREFIX)/dhrystone/Makefile $(@D)/
        $(Q)touch $@

(see package/dhrystone/dhryistone.mk)

Or if you want to do it the clean way, add the possibility of
overriding the extraction step in the package infrastructure.

Best regards,

Thomas

thanks for your help. I won't need PHP but will need to run Perl scripts
on it.
Where do I find the .mk files for nginx?

Okay, I see....

I have created a small patch for Makefile.package.in which allows
packages to override the extraction step. I'am not completely sure if
this was the solution you had in mind, but to me it seems like a
harmless fix. I will post this fix along with a new version of the ATI
driver which is based on gentargets. The new patch will be based
directly on the master branch.

its a Geode LX Box; x86.
Want to have uclibc and adapted kernel. Want buildroot to create a
bootable image which I can dd to my CF card.

Did make menuconfig and set up everything I need.
What exactly is meant by kernel "defconfig"?
Then I should normally just invoke "make" and get the results after a
couple of hours. Or am I wrong?!

Apparently it doesn't find an own kernel defconfig file. The default

[Buildroot] Making kernel?

[bruce bushby]

I run my buildroot from "/opt/buildroot" , for my platform "arm" the configs
are sitting in:
/opt/buildroot/output/build/linux-2.6.38-rc5/arch/arm/configs/

Have you tried "make menuconfig" then select your kernel header and kernel
versions and then specify a kernel "defconfig" for example
"sam9_l9260_defconfig"

the problem was that it complaine about a missing file which I was just
about to create. Anyway, I took the standard defconfig file and it worked:

Now I got:

- -rw-r--r-- 1 root root  4180960  8. Apr 10:57 bzImage
- -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 11706368  8. Apr 10:30 rootfs.cpio
- -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14252032  8. Apr 10:56 rootfs.ext2
- -rw-r--r-- 1 root root    40776  8. Apr 10:57 rootfs.initramfs
- -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 18929664  8. Apr 10:56 rootfs.iso9660
- -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 12052480  8. Apr 10:30 rootfs.tar

;-)

Just need to find out how to put that all together to get a bootable
system..

Thanks to all for your help so far!!!!

the build host is a x64 system

jupp  I could just skip it... lets give it a try.

I use nginx with php on that board (2D13) without any problem, but my 
build host isn't 64 bit.

I can't test it directly, however in this weekend i'll try to give a 
look to this problem.

In any case, you can try to edit auto/types/sizeof and add there 
u_int64_t size (well, it should be 8)

Best Regards,
Daniele

Good morning Daniele,


its getting better :)
Now it complains about missing zlib. Unfortunately  I cannot enable zlib
in menuconfig. There is no hook to activate.
Does this depend on another point somewhere which I don't know?!

Output:
./configure: error: the HTTP gzip module requires the zlib library.
You can either disable the module by using --without-http_gzip_module
option, or install the zlib library into the system, or build the zlib
library
statically from the source with nginx by using --with-zlib=<path> option.

Have you tried implicitly addding zlib to your conf options?

Something like:
HTTP_CONF_OPT += --with-zlib=$(STAGING_DIR)/usr

ok, thanks. Will try. Up to now I have used only the option presented in
menuconfig and there was no possibility to select (or deselect) zlib.

in an normal environment I would just edit the .c file. But how do I do
this with buildroot?
