This commit improves our .gitlab-ci.yml logic to execute our runtime tests located in support/testing/. To do so, this commit: - Adds more Debian packages to be installed, namely the nose2 and pexpect packages needed by the runtime testing infrastructure, as well as the necessary Qemu emulators - The description of how to run the runtime tests. Each test is executed as a separate Gitlab CI job, so that the status of each test is easily visible in the Gitlab CI web interface. - The Makefile is improved to auto-generate .gitlab-ci.yml from .gitlab-ci.yml.in, like we're doing for defconfigs. Since the dependencies of .gitlab-ci.yml are no longer correct, we abandon them and instead make it a PHONY target.

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.
