This directory contains various useful scripts and tools for working
|
with Buildroot. You need not add this directory in your PATH to use
|
any of those tools, but you may do so if you want.
|
|
brmake
|
a script that can be run instead of make, that prepends the date in
|
front of each line, redirects all of the build output to a file
|
("'br.log' in the current directory), and just outputs the Buildroot
|
messages (those lines starting with >>>) on stdout.
|
Do not run this script for interactive configuration (e.g. menuconfig)
|
or on an unconfigured directory. The output is redirected so you will see
|
nothing.
|
|
check-package
|
a script that checks the coding style of a package's Config.in and
|
.mk files, and also tests them for various types of typoes.
|
|
genrandconfig
|
a script that generates a random configuration, used by the autobuilders
|
(http://autobuild.buildroot.org). It selects a random toolchain from
|
support/config-fragments/autobuild and randomly selects packages to build.
|
|
get-developpers
|
a script to return the list of people interested in a specific part
|
of Buildroot, so they can be Cc:ed on a mail. Accepts a patch as
|
input, a package name or and architecture name.

size-stats-compare
|
a script to compare the rootfs size between two different Buildroot
|
configurations. This can be used to identify the size impact of
|
a specific option, of a set of specific options, or of an update
|
to a newer Buildroot version...
|
|
test-pkg
|
a script that tests a specific package against a set of various
|
toolchains, with the goal to detect toolchain-related dependencies
|
(wchar, threads...)
