Hi Patrick,

I synchronized our Openbmc repository with upstream repository then compiled and checked the result yesterday, we can generate dynamically linked binary but still failed to generate statically linked binary.  I used OpenBmc environment to compile and also created a SDK environment by using x86-64 toolchain (oecore-x86_64-core2-64-toolchain-nodistro.0.sh) to compile, the compile result is the same. It seems to the linker not find the archive file libpci.a, could you take a look my problem? Thanks.

I will get error message when I run the tool in my host platform as below. The dynamically linked binary is not convenience to use since I have to modify rpath and interpreter of already compiled ELF.

Hi Patrick,

I have some questions as below, could you help to clarify. Thanks.

1.      Do you have any plans to support BIOS update in phosphor-ipmi-flash?

If the answer is no, we would like to help to add this feature. Could you give us some advice or clues to implement it.

This could be added to the design (first step).
I could probably roll out this in a day or two, it's not a difficult extension with a few caveats. We'd have to define new services, such as update_bios.service instead of update_bmc.service.

I have some cycles, so I don't mind reviewing the changes required and rolling something out --


2.      The FPGA rom image is embedded in BMC image, we would like to add fpga-update.service and fpga-verify.service in phosphor-ipmi-flash, we expect that run both services after update BMC image completely. Do you have any concerns about it?

There are a couple things to unpack here.  The FPGA rom is embedded in the BMC image.  How is the BMC updated?  I ask because a machine can (and is expected to) provide its own update_bmc.service implementation.  This service could trigger the fpga-verify and fpga-update services within whatever code is called from the update_bmc service you specify.


3.      How can I make a static executable host tool (burn_my_bmc)? Currently, I can’t to make a statically linked binary successfully, but I have made it before you added p2a function.
For the host tool you need to specify very little, you should be able to build it via:
./bootstrap.sh
./configure
./make

You will need to checkout and install ipmi-blob-tool first (openbmc/ipmi-blob-tool)


^^ --- those steps should go on the README.  Will add them shortly.


Based on different OS environment as below, I would like to have a static executable since dynamically linked binary can’t work normally in host OS.

Host OS environment


Build environment (OpenBmc)


Gcc  v4.8.5


Gcc   v8.3.0


Glibc  v2.17


Glibc  v2.29


The bitbake recipe isn't meant to be used for the host tool.  It explicitly disables building the host-tool by default.  You should be able to check out the repo and build from there.  Let me know if you run into issues with that.


4.      I didn’t find the below service files in source tree, where can find default services or should we provide our own services?

update_bmc.service
verify_image.service
prepare_update.service

That's correct.  There are currently no default service files.  I am thinking of providing a default prepare_update service in a later CL, however updating the BMC or verifying the image depend entirely on the system -- which makes it difficult to have a default.  In point of fact, there isn't really a valid default phosphor-ipmi-flash build for a BMC.  Everything needs to be specified.

^--- I can work on making the ubi bmc option available if the ubi distro feature is enabled, etc -- providing some defaults.
^--- I have a plan to provide a prepare_update.service once I finish testing Aspeed LPC support.


I've been reviewing the build process for the host-tool and the configure file and other pieces require the BMC-stuff to be installed first (sdbusplus, etc).  I'm going to cleanup the configure file so that if you're building the host-tool it doesn't try to build the BMC stuff.



Regards,
Andrew
