-Abstract
-========
-
-This document describes how to build the Fuel deployment tool for the
-AArch64 Colorado release of OPNFV build system, dependencies and
-required system resources.
-
-Introduction
-============
-
-This document describes the build system used to build the Fuel
-deployment tool for the AArch64 Colorado release of OPNFV, required
-dependencies and minimum requirements on the host to be used for the
-build system.
-
-The Fuel build system is designed around Docker containers such that
-dependencies outside of the build system can be kept to a minimum. It
-also shields the host from any potential dangerous operations
-performed by the build system.
-
-The audience of this document is assumed to have good knowledge in
-network and Unix/Linux administration.
-
-Due to early docker and nodejs support on AArch64, we will still use an
-x86_64 Fuel Master to build and deploy an AArch64 target pool, as well
-as an x86_64 build machine for building the OPNFV ISO.
-
-Requirements
-============
-
-Minimum Hardware Requirements
------------------------------
-
-- ~50 GB available disc
-
-- 4 GB RAM
-
-Minimum Software Requirements
------------------------------
-
-The build host should run Ubuntu 14.04 (x86_64) operating system.
-
-On the host, the following packages must be installed:
-
-- An x86_64 host (Bare-metal or VM) with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS installed
-
- - **Note:** Builds on Wily (Ubuntu 15.x) are currently not supported
-
- - A kernel equal- or later than 3.19 (Vivid), simply available through:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
- $ sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-vivid
-
-- docker - see https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/ubuntulinux/ for
- installation notes for Ubuntu 14.04. Tested against version 1.9.x and greater
-
-- git
-
-- make
-
-- curl
-
-- fuseiso
-
-Apart from docker, all other package requirements listed above are
-simply available through:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
- $ sudo apt-get install git make curl fuseiso
-
-Preparations
-============
-
-Setting up the Docker build container
--------------------------------------
-After having installed Docker, add yourself to the docker group:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
- $ sudo usermod -a -G docker [userid]
-
-Also make sure to define relevant DNS servers part of the global
-DNS chain in your </etc/default/docker> configuration file.
-Uncomment, and modify the values appropriately.
-
-For example:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
- DOCKER_OPTS=" --dns=8.8.8.8 --dns=8.8.8.4"
-
-Then restart docker:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
- $ sudo service docker restart
-
-Setting up OPNFV Gerrit in order to being able to clone the code
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-- Start setting up OPNFV gerrit by creating a SSH key (unless you
- don't already have one), create one with ssh-keygen
-
-- Add your generated public key in OPNFV Gerrit (https://gerrit.opnfv.org/)
- (this requires a Linux foundation account, create one if you do not
- already have one)
-
-- Select "SSH Public Keys" to the left and then "Add Key" and paste
- your public key in.
-
-Clone the armband@OPNFV code Git repository with your SSH key
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-Now it is time to clone the code repository:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
- $ git clone ssh://<Linux foundation user>@gerrit.opnfv.org:29418/armband
-
-Now you should have the OPNFV ARMBAND repository with its
-directories stored locally on your build host.
-
-Check out the Colorado release:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
- $ cd armband
- $ git checkout colorado.1.0
-
-Clone the armband@OPNFV code Git repository without a SSH key
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-You can also opt to clone the code repository without a SSH key:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
- $ git clone https://gerrit.opnfv.org/gerrit/armband
-
-Make sure to checkout the release tag as described above.
-
-Support for building behind a http/https/rsync proxy
-----------------------------------------------------
-
-The build system is able to make use of a web proxy setup if the
-http_proxy, https_proxy, no_proxy (if needed) and RSYNC_PROXY or
-RSYNC_CONNECT_PROG environment variables have been set before invoking make.
-
-The proxy setup must permit port 80 (http), 443 (https) and 873 (rsync).
-
-Important note about the host Docker daemon settings
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-The Docker daemon on the host must be configured to use the http proxy
-for it to be able to pull the base Ubuntu 14.04 image from the Docker
-registry before invoking make! In Ubuntu this is done by adding a line
-like:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
- export http_proxy="http://10.0.0.1:8888/"
-
-to </etc/default/docker> and restarting the Docker daemon.
-
-Setting proxy environment variables prior to build
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-The build system will make use the following environment variables
-that needs to be exported to subshells by using export (bash) or
-setenv (csh/tcsh).
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
- http_proxy (or HTTP_PROXY)
- https_proxy (or HTTP_PROXY)
- no_proxy (or NO_PROXY)
- RSYNC_PROXY
- RSYNC_CONNECT_PROG
-
-As an example, these are the settings that were put in the user's
-.bashrc when verifying the proxy build functionality:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
- export RSYNC_PROXY=10.0.0.1:8888
- export http_proxy=http://10.0.0.1:8888
- export https_proxy=http://10.0.0.1:8888
- export no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.1,.consultron.com,.sock
-
-Using a ssh proxy for the rsync connection
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-If the proxy setup is not allowing the rsync protocol, an alternative
-solution is to use a SSH tunnel to a machine capable of accessing the
-outbound port 873. Set the RSYNC_CONNECT_PROG according to the rsync
-manual page (for example to "ssh <username>@<hostname> nc %H 873")
-to enable this. Also note that netcat needs to be installed on the
-remote system!
-
-Make sure that the ssh command also refers to the user on the remote
-system, as the command itself will be run from the Docker build container
-as the root user (but with the invoking user's SSH keys).
-
-Disabling the Ubuntu repo cache if rsync is not allowed
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-During the build phase, a local Ubuntu package repository is fetched
-from upstream in order to be added to the OPNFV Fuel ISO and for parts
-of this process rsync is used.
-
-If neither of the two available methods for proxying rsync are
-available, the last resort is to turn off the caching of the Ubuntu
-packages in the build system. This is done by removing the
-"f_repobuild" from SUBDIRS in the beginning of the
-<armband/upstream/fuel/build/f_isoroot/Makefile>.
-
-Note! Doing this will require the Fuel master node to have Internet
-access when installing the ISO artifact built as no Ubuntu package
-cache will be on the ISO!
-
-Note! Armband build system uses git submodules to track fuel and
-other upstream repos, so in order to apply the above change, one
-should first initialize the submodules and apply armband patches
-(only needed once):
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
- $ make submodules-init
- $ make patches-import
-
-Configure your build environment
---------------------------------
-
-** Configuring the build environment should not be performed if building
-standard Colorado release **
-
-Select the versions of the components you want to build by editing the
-<armband/upstream/fuel/build/config.mk> file.
-
-Note! The same observation as above, before altering Makefile, run:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
- $ make submodules-init patches-import
-
-Non official build: Selecting which plugins to build
-----------------------------------------------------
-In order to cut the build time for unofficial builds (made by an
-individual developer locally), the selection if which Fuel plugins to
-build (if any) can be done by environment variable
-"BUILD_FUEL_PLUGINS" prior to building.
-
-Only the plugin targets from
-<armband/upstream/fuel/build/f_isoroot/Makefile> that are
-specified in the environment variable will then be built. In order to
-completely disable the building of plugins, the environment variable
-is set to " ". When using this functionality, the resulting iso file
-will be prepended with the prefix "unofficial-" to clearly indicate
-that this is not a full build.
-
-This method of plugin selection is not meant to be used from within
-Gerrit!
-
-Note! Not all plugins are ported to AArch64. Full list of supported plugins is in release notes.
-
-Building
-========
-
-There is only one preffered method available for building Fuel for AArch64:
-
-- A low level method using Make
-
-Low level build method using make
----------------------------------
-The low level method is based on Make:
-
-From the <armband> directory, invoke <make [target]>
-
-Following targets exist:
-
-- release - this will do the same as:
-
- - make submodules-clean clean-docker clean-build
-
- - make submodules-init patches-import build
-
-- none/all/build - this will:
-
- - Initialize the docker build environment
-
- - Build Fuel from upstream (as defined by fuel-build/config-spec)
-
- - Build the OPNFV defined plugins/features from upstream
-
- - Build the defined additions to fuel (as defined by the structure
- of this framework)
-
- - Apply changes and patches to fuel (as defined by the structure of
- this framework)
-
- - Reconstruct a fuel .iso image
-
-- submodules-init - Initialize git submodules (fuel@OPNFV, fuel-library etc.)
-
-- submodules-clean - cleanup git submodules (fuel@OPNFV, fuel-library etc.)
-
-- patches-import - this will apply armband@OPNFV patches to git submodules
-
-- patches-export - this will export git submodules changes as armband patches
-
-- clean-build - this will remove all artifacts from earlier builds.
-
-- clean-docker - this will remove all docker caches from earlier builds.
-
-If the build is successful, you will find the generated ISO file in
-the <armband/upstream/fuel/build/release> subdirectory!
-
-Artifacts
-=========
-
-The artifacts produced are:
-
-- <OPNFV_XXXX.iso> - Which represents the bootable (x86_64) Fuel for AArch64
- image, XXXX is replaced with the build identity provided to the build system
-
-- <OPNFV_XXXX.iso.txt> - Which holds version metadata.
