Description

Deployment preparation and execution of the GDP 11 Beta QEMU image and metadata.

Deliverables

This task is fully described in the GDP Release Howto document.

• Designate a staging area, i.e. a directory to put all the build artifacts.
• Create a fresh checkout of the genivi-dev-platform repo using the release branch, `source init.sh`, tar the whole thing up as oe-source.tar.gz and put it in the staging area.
• This can be simplified to wiping out gdp-src-build/tmp and tarring up the whole thing while excluding everything in gdp-src-build except gdp-src-build/conf bitbake genivi-dev-platform
• Copy tmp/deploy/licenses/genivi-dev-platform-*/license.manifest into the staging area.
• Tar up the whole tmp/deploy/source dir as sources.tar.gz and put it in the staging area.
• Tar up the whole tmp/deploy/licenses dir as licenses.tar.gz and put in the staging area.
• Copy the image manifest to the staging area.
• Copy the kernel to the staging area.
• gzip the rootfs into the staging area.
• Upload all of the staging area into an FTP site
• Notify GENIVI IT GDP-321
  • Inlcude in the notification the new URLs required for the release content. Done it in a different ticket since the release was delayed.
  • Sent credentials to GENIVI IT by a second channel
