During the latest Buildroot Developers meeting, we discussed that test-pkg would perhaps be more widely used if it tested a smaller subset of toolchains. Indeed, it currently tests 47 toolchains, which takes very long to build. Several of the toolchain configurations are quite similar, and it is perhaps not necessary for contributors to test them all before submitting a package. Therefore, this commit changes the test-pkg script to only test a subset of the toolchain configurations by default. The N first configurations of the CSV files are tested, where N is hard-coded in the script. The CSV file has therefore been re-organized to have the first N toolchains be the most important ones. A -a/--all option is added to test with all toolchains, while a -n/--number option is added to test with the first N toolchains, N being passed on the command line. Note that the list of toolchains (built in the "toolchains" shell variable) is no longer sorted. Indeed, when the first N toolchains are tested, we want them to be tested in the same order as they are listed in the CSV file, as we are careful to order them in an interesting order. We only sort when all toolchains are tested. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> Tested-by: Matt Weber <matthew.weber@rockwellcollins.com> Reviewed-by: "Yann E.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
