# OpenPOWER Firmware Build Environment

The OpenPOWER firmware build process uses Buildroot to create a toolchain and

build the various components of the PNOR firmware, including Hostboot, Skiboot,

OCC, Petitboot etc.

## Documentation

https://open-power.github.io/op-build/

See the doc/ directory for documentation source. Contributions

are *VERY* welcome!

## Development

Issues, Milestones, pull requests and code hosting is on GitHub:

## Building an image

To build an image for a Palmetto system:

```

git clone --recursive [email protected]:open-power/op-build.git

cd op-build

. op-build-env

op-build palmetto_defconfig && op-build

```

There are also default configurations for other platforms in

`openpower/configs/`. Current POWER8 platforms include Habanero,

Firestone, and Garrison. Current POWER9 platforms include Witherspoon,

Boston (p9dsu), Romulus, and Zaius.

Buildroot/op-build supports both native and cross-compilation - it will

automatically download and build an appropriate toolchain as part of the build

process, so you don't need to worry about setting up a

cross-compiler. Cross-compiling from a x86-64 host is officially supported.
