Automate Pidora Kernel and Firmware Building

Project Description

The Raspberry Pi Foundation maintains a kernel fork that is updated frequently. We would like to package kernel and firmware changes on a daily basis, and have these available in a testing repository so that anyone can use them. Periodically, we will select a kernel-firmware combination from this testing repository and make it available as the main Pidora kernel.

Project Details

Use Python or Bash to create a script that will be automate the process of compiling the newest kernel. This will be done by checking Github for the latest kernel, downloading it, updating the spec file and sending the build to koji. This build will stay in a testing repository.

Goals by Release

Goals for each release and plans for reaching those goals:

  • 0.1 Prototype build in either python or bash able to retrieve package from github and send it to koji
  • 0.2 Finish code, add options if I find they could be helpful in some way. Comment code and do lots of testing.
  • 0.3 Create man page, perform tweaks and send for release.
