| ==== Package-specific _make_ targets |
| |
| Running +make <package>+ builds and installs that particular package |
| and its dependencies. |
| |
| For packages relying on the Buildroot infrastructure, there are |
| numerous special make targets that can be called independently like |
| this: |
| |
| ------------ |
| make <package>-<target> |
| ------------ |
| |
| The package build targets are (in the order they are executed): |
| |
| [width="90%",cols="^1,4",options="header"] |
| |=================================================== |
| | command/target | Description |
| |
| | +source+ | Fetch the source (download the tarball, clone |
| the source repository, etc) |
| |
| | +depends+ | Build and install all dependencies required to |
| build the package |
| |
| | +extract+ | Put the source in the package build directory |
| (extract the tarball, copy the source, etc) |
| |
| | +patch+ | Apply the patches, if any |
| |
| | +configure+ | Run the configure commands, if any |
| |
| | +build+ | Run the compilation commands |
| |
| | +install-staging+ | |
| *target package:* Run the installation of the package in the |
| staging directory, if necessary |
| |
| | +install-target+ | |
| *target package:* Run the installation of the package in the |
| target directory, if necessary |
| |
| | +install+ | |
| *target package:* Run the 2 previous installation commands |
| |
| *host package:* Run the installation of the package in the host |
| directory |
| |
| |=================================================== |
| |
| Additionally, there are some other useful make targets: |
| |
| [width="90%",cols="^1,4",options="header"] |
| |=================================================== |
| | command/target | Description |
| |
| | +show-depends+ | Displays the first-order dependencies required to build the |
| package |
| |
| | +show-recursive-depends+ | Recursively displays the dependencies |
| required to build the package |
| |
| | +show-rdepends+ | Displays the first-order reverse dependencies of |
| the package (i.e packages that directly depend on it) |
| |
| | +show-recursive-rdepends+ | Recursively displays the reverse |
| dependencies of the package (i.e the packages that depend on it, |
| directly or indirectly) |
| |
| | +graph-depends+ | Generate a dependency graph of the package, in the |
| context of the current Buildroot configuration. See |
| xref:graph-depends[this section] for more details about dependency |
| graphs. |
| |
| | +graph-rdepends+ | Generate a graph of this package reverse |
| dependencies (i.e the packages that depend on it, directly or |
| indirectly) |
| |
| | +dirclean+ | Remove the whole package build directory |
| |
| | +reinstall+ | Re-run the install commands |
| |
| | +rebuild+ | Re-run the compilation commands - this only makes |
| sense when using the +OVERRIDE_SRCDIR+ feature or when you modified a file |
| directly in the build directory |
| |
| | +reconfigure+ | Re-run the configure commands, then rebuild - this only |
| makes sense when using the +OVERRIDE_SRCDIR+ feature or when you modified a |
| file directly in the build directory |
