==Changes in armadeus to support new BR==
==How to use recent BR in armadeus==
* select the version to use in main Makefile:
* checkout a recent clean GIT view and before any other command edit the main Makefile to change the BUILDROOT_VERSION flag from 2013.11 to the wanted BR version.
** comment line 30
** uncomment the line 29 and modify it
* then you can use it as old BR:
<pre class="host">
<pre class="host">
#--- User configurable stuff:
$ make apf27_defconfig
#BUILDROOT_SITE:=http://buildroot.uclibc.org/downloads/snapshots
$ make
#BUILDROOT_VERSION:=20100129
#BUILDROOT_PATCH_DIR = patches/buildroot/2010.02
BUILDROOT_SITE:=http://downloads.sourceforge.net/armadeus
BUILDROOT_VERSION:=20081103
BUILDROOT_PATCH_DIR = patches/buildroot
#--- End of user conf (don't touch anything below unless you know what you're doing !! ;-) )
</pre>
</pre>
* you may need to create a new patches directory:
patches/buildroot/201x.xx/
==Patches that could be sent to BR==
(Some will require some cleanup)
===Instructions===
* Patches to port: ''patches/buildroot/2013.11''
* when working on a patch mark it with:
** <nowiki> ** <span style="color:orange">'''In progress'''</span> ~~~~ </nowiki>
** '''-->''' <span style="color:orange">'''In progress'''</span> [[User:JulienB|JulienB]] 14:14, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
* Strike the one that are no more needed:
** <strike> 000-xxxxxxx.patch </strike>
* Write OK in bold green and your name (automatic with 4x'~') when corresponding patch has been ported:
** <nowiki> ** <span style="color:green">'''OK'''</span> ~~~~ </nowiki>
** '''-->''' 000-xxxxxxx.patch: <span style="color:green">'''OK'''</span> [[User:JulienB|JulienB]] 07:06, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
* How to:
** get a BR git
** try to apply patch with ''patch -p1 --dry-run < patch_name.patch''
** when it applies remove ''--dry-run'', commit, generates patch with [[GIT]] and send it to BR

==How to send patches to BR==


* new patch dir:
(see the [http://elinux.org/Buildroot_how_to_contribute Buildroot - How to contribute] page)
  patches/buildroot/2010.02/
 
* GIT should be installed and configured on your PC like stated [[GIT|here]]
* clone Buildroot GIT:
<pre class="host">
$ git clone git://git.busybox.net/buildroot buildroot_git_dev/ (TBDL)
$ cd buildroot_git_dev/
</pre>
* take patch from Armadeus:
<pre class="host">
  $ cp /path_to_armadeus_bsp/patches/buildroot/2011.05/0xx-name.patch .
</pre>
* create a branch to work (here ''my_work''):
<pre class="host">
$ git branch my_work
$ git checkout my_work
Switched to branch 'my_work'
$ git branch
  master
* my_work
</pre>
* try patch:
<pre class="host">
$ patch -p1 --dry-run < 0xx-name.patch
</pre>
* if it works, apply it for real:
<pre class="host">
$ patch -p1 < 0xx-name.patch
</pre>
* list changes:
<pre class="host">
$ git status
</pre>
* do some more changes if needed and then save them:
<pre class="host">
... do changes ...
$ git add files_changed
... test changes ...
$ git commit -m "Summary of your work"
</pre>
* generate patch to send to BR:
<pre class="host">
$ git format-patch -M master.. -s
</pre>
* this will give:
<pre class="host">
0001-Summary_of_your_work.patch
</pre>
* send patch to BR (check https://buildroot.org/downloads/manual/manual.html#submitting-patches before ;-) ):
<pre class="host">
$ git send-email --from=xxx.xxx@xxx.xx --to=buildroot@busybox.net --smtp-server=smtp.xxx.xx 0001-Summary_of_your_work.patch
</pre>
* depending on the feedbacks from BR, modify your patch:
<pre class="host">
... do changes ...
$ git diff
$ git add files_changed
$ git commit --amend
$ git format-patch -M master..my_work -s
</pre>
* adds version inside [PATCH] ex: [PATCH v2]
* adds comments after ---, ex:
<pre class="host">

How to send patches to BR

(see the Buildroot - How to contribute page)

  • GIT should be installed and configured on your PC like stated here
  • clone Buildroot GIT:
 $ git clone git://git.busybox.net/buildroot buildroot_git_dev/ (TBDL)
 $ cd buildroot_git_dev/
  • take patch from Armadeus:
 $ cp /path_to_armadeus_bsp/patches/buildroot/2011.05/0xx-name.patch .
  • create a branch to work (here my_work):
 $ git branch my_work
 $ git checkout my_work
 Switched to branch 'my_work'
 $ git branch
   master
 * my_work
  • try patch:
 $ patch -p1 --dry-run < 0xx-name.patch
  • if it works, apply it for real:
 $ patch -p1 < 0xx-name.patch
  • list changes:
 $ git status
  • do some more changes if needed and then save them:
 ... do changes ...
 $ git add files_changed
 ... test changes ...
 $ git commit -m "Summary of your work"
  • generate patch to send to BR:
 $ git format-patch -M master.. -s
  • this will give:
 0001-Summary_of_your_work.patch

 $ git send-email --from=xxx.xxx@xxx.xx --to=buildroot@busybox.net --smtp-server=smtp.xxx.xx 0001-Summary_of_your_work.patch
  • depending on the feedbacks from BR, modify your patch:
 ... do changes ...
 $ git diff
 $ git add files_changed
 $ git commit --amend
 $ git format-patch -M master..my_work -s
  • adds version inside [PATCH] ex: [PATCH v2]
  • adds comments after ---, ex:
