Downloading LSP source code

There are two options for downloading the LSP source code:

●

From the STLinux Web site

STLinux distribution contains rpm for source code for XLoader, U-Boot and Linux.

The default installation of STLinux2.4 source code can be retrieved from:

/opt/STM/STLinux2.4/devkit/sources

●

From the GIT repository

XLoader, U-Boot and Linux kernel development for SPEAr is done on GIT.

ST GIT repositories are:

–

Linux: http://git.stlinux.com/?p=spear/linux-2.6.git

–

U-Boot: http://git.stlinux.com/?p=spear/u-boot.git;

–

XLoader: http://git.stlinux.com/?p=spear/xloader.git;

Source code can be viewed on this link using any internet browser.

GIT source code can obtained using GIT. Following is an example for kernel source. An

identical procedure can be used for XLoader and U-Boot.

Clone the repository or fetch new code. If you are downloading SPEAr kernel source for

the first time, you should clone the repository. This can be done with:

git clone git://git.stlinux.com/spear/xloader.git

Note:

If you are running the command inside a company Intranet, you may be required to set the

http_proxy (or HTTP_PROXY) variable with the DNS name of the proxy machine:

# export htpp_proxy=http://<yourlogin>:<yourpwd>@<yourproxyaddr>:8080

If you have already cloned the repository, you can fetch updates with the following

command:

git fetch origin

Create a new branch from the release.

After cloning you can create your branch from the tag of the LSP release.

For example, to retrieve code for LSP 3.2.5, execute the following command:

git checkout -b <your_branch> lsp-3.2.5

This creates your branch with objects from LSP 3.2.5

Note:

Information on tags regarding all releases are mentioned in corresponding release notes.
