ATF >= 1.3 builds a host program called fiptool which uses OpenSSL, so we need to build host-openssl. We could have made it an optional dependency like U-Boot does, but since most ATF versions are going to be >= 1.3 in the near future, we simply make host-openssl a mandatory dependency. However, the ATF build system is not very good, and you can't easily pass flags that will affect the build of host programs. Therefore, we take the approach of building fiptool separately before triggering the real build process. It would obviously be better to fix ATF itself, but as usual with those bootloader packages, we fetch different versions depending on the platform/configuration, making it difficult to use patches.

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. If you would like to contribute patches, please read https://buildroot.org/manual.html#submitting-patches
