Save linaro_android_build_cmds.sh to where you’d like to make your build.
Run the build script
The linaro_android_build_cmds.sh script will download the source and create the build.
$ chmod +x linaro_android_build_cmds.sh $ ./linaro_android_build_cmds.sh -h #To print the script usage
Most commonly used build options:
$ ./linaro_android_build_cmds.sh -t #To build from the tip of the branch without overlay $ ./linaro_android_build_cmds.sh -t -o <overlay> #To build from the tip of the branch with provided overlay $ ./linaro_android_build_cmds.sh -m <pinned_manifest> -o <overlay> #To reproduce an exact build from pinned manifest $ ./linaro_android_build_cmds.sh -t -l <login-id> #Provide login/access ID to clone and build code from linaro-private repositories
