Page 7: Build Environment Setup
ARTiGO A630 Linux BSP v1.0.1 Development Guide 2. Build Environment Setup This section guides you through setting up the build environment for development on the host machine. All instructions are based on Ubuntu14.04 LTS x64. To make sure that the build process completes successfully, we recommend at least 120GB of disk space and 15GB of combined memory and swap space on the host machine. Configuring Linux Host Machine The following packages are required for the Linux development environment. The required packages can be installed using the commands below. Extract the arm_201103_gcc4.5.2.tgz file to /usr/local/arm/ (If this folder does not exist in the system, please create it manually). $ sudo tar –xzvf arm_201103_gcc4.5.2.tar.gz -C /usr/local/arm/ The cross compiler will be found in the /usr/local/arm/arm_201103_gcc4.5.2/ directory. Add the toolchain path in ~/.bashrc file. $ vi ~/.bashrc export PATH=/usr/local/arm/arm_201103_gcc4.5.2/mybin/:$PATH Make sure that the host machine is connected to the network and run the packages update. $ sudo apt-get update Install the required software packages for cross-compilation. -

ARTiGO A630 Linux BSP v1.0.1 Development Guide 3. Image Build This section explains how to build U-Boot and Kernel binary for the ARTiGO A630 system. Extracting the ARTiGO A630 BSP The ARTiGO_A630_Linux_source_code.zip includes u-boot-1.1.4.tar.gz and Kernel_3.4.5.tar.gz. Use the following command to extract the contents of the BSP. $ unzip ARTiGO_A630_Linux_source_code.zip Building the U-Boot Binary This section describes how to build the U-Boot image from the source code. Use the following command to extract the U-Boot source code. $ tar -xzvf u-boot-1.1.4.tar.gz In order to use the default configurations type the following command. $ cd /u-boot-1.1.4 $ make wmt_config To build the U-boot image with the ARM cross compiler. $ make -j8 zuboot When the process is completed, the zuboot.bin file will be stored in the u-boot-1.1.4 directory. -

ARTiGO A630 Linux BSP v1.0.1 Development Guide Building the Linux Kernel This section describes how to build the kernel binary from the source code. To begin, extract the kernel source code. $ tar -xzvf Kernel_3.4.5.tar.gz To use the default configuration and compile the kernel type the following command: $ cd /Kernel_3.4.5 $ make vab630_linux_defconfig $ make clean $ make -j8 ubin When the compilation process is completed, the uzImage.bin file will be stored in the Kernel_3.4.5 directory. After the compilation, the /u-boot-1.1.4/ and /Kernel_3.4.5/ directory will contain the resulting binary files, as shown in the table below.
