[LEDE-DEV] Testing ARM images

[Philip Prindeville]

Hi.

I was recently working on updating Perl 5.26.1 which required making machine-specific parameters for cross-builds (because Perl doesn’t use autoconf), and was able to test for x86_64 on KVM/libvirt, but have not tried any other platforms (well, I built armvirt but haven’t run anything in a Qemu emulator).

Can someone please update the Wiki to include:

(1) what parameters to set when building a LEDE image like CONFIG_TARGET_xxxx, CONFIG_TARGET_BOARD, CONFIG_ARCH, etc.

(2) also image parameters

(3) how to provision the VM itself, perhaps including the XML for virsh/libvirt.

Thanks,

-Philip
