Wanpipe Driver RPM Build

All wanpipe drivers support RPM building.

 

 

1. Building RPMS using rpmbuild
   This is the new official way of building RPMS.  Supported from 3.5.18 release an forward.
   The other ways of building rpm are still supported for backward compatibility. 
   -- 
2. Building RPMS using Make
   If you are a power user and want most flexibility and a standardized way of building RPMs please use the MAKE method.  
   -- 
3. Building RPMS using Setup
   If you have never build an RPM and want  to build wanpipe RPM.

Building Wanpipe RPMS using rpmbuild

1. Download latest wanpipe release
   -> Location: wanpipe releases     

 

Each RPM build will be located in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS  directory

By default rpmbuild will use the currently running kernel and current system architecture.
These parameters can be changed if one is building for a different system.

1. Wanpipe RPM Build Default
   [supports FreeTDM, TDM API/Libsangoma, FreeSWITCH ]
   
   
   -> rpmbuild -tb wanpipe-<ver>.tgz 
   or
   -> rpmbuild -tb wanpipe-<ver>.tgz  --define 'kernel 2.6.32'  \
                                                           --define 'ksrc /usr/src/linux' --define 'karch i686'
   
   
    
2. Wanpipe RPM Build for Asterisk
   [ supports Dahdi,Zaptel as well as FreeTDM,TDM API/Libsangoma, FreeSWITCH]
   
   ->  rpmbuild -tb wanpipe-<ver>.tgz --define 'with_dahdi 1' --define 'dahdi_dir /usr/src/dahdi'  \
                                                           --define 'dahdi_ver 2.4.0'
   
   ->  rpmbuild -tb wanpipe-<ver>.tgz --define 'with_zaptel 1' --define 'zaptel_dir /usr/src/zaptel' \
                                                           --define 'zaptel_ver 1.4.0'
   
   Note: That last option 'dahdi_ver' is used as part of the rpm name to identify for which dahdi/zaptel version the rpm is built for.

Building Wanpipe RPMS using Make

1. Download latest wanpipe release
   -> Location: wanpipe releases    
2. Untar wanpipe release in /usr/src directory
   -> tar xfz wanpipe-<ver>.tgz
   -> cd wanpipe-<ver>/ 
3. Build wanpipe drivers using MAKE
   -> make all_src ZAPDIR=<absolute path to zaptel or dahdi directory>
    
   For more options please study the Makefile.
   The Makefile will build all drivers and utilities in the current directory three.  
4. Install wanpipe drivers into a aribrary directory
   -> make install INSTALLPREFIX=/tmp/wanpipe_build/  
5. Use the Wanpipe RPM Spec file to build the RPM
   -> Spec file location  cd rpmspec/

Building Wanpipe RPMS using >> ./Setup install

1. Download latest wanpipe release
   -> Location: wanpipe releases  
2. Untar wanpipe release in /usr/src directory
   -> tar xfz wanpipe-<ver>.tgz
   -> cd wanpipe-<ver>/  
3. Building RPMS
   The ./Setup script is used to build RPMS.
   Depending on what drivers you need, you have to tell Setup to build rpms with certain protocols/drivers.
   
   Bulild RPMs for Asterisk/Zaptel: Modules and Utilities separately
   -> ./Setup buildrpm  --split_rpms --protocol=TDM --zaptel-path=/usr/src/zaptel
   
   Building RPMs for Asterisk/Zaptel: One big rpm (modules + utilities)
   -> ./Setup buildrpm --protocol=TDM --zaptel-path=/usr/src/zaptel
   
   
   Building RPMs for Asterisk/Zaptel/BRI: One big rpm (modules + utilities)
   ->./Setup buildrpm --silent --no-zaptel-compile --protocol=TDM-SMG_BRI --with-zaptel=/usr/src/zaptel   --split_rpm
   
   Building RPMs for Asterisk/BRI: One big rpm (modules + utilities)
   ->./Setup buildrpm --silent - --protocol=SMG_BRI    --split_rpm
   
   (Note: Please make sure there is symbolic link to Asterisk source directory in /usr/src/
   
   Building RPMs for WAN/Data/TDM API
   Wan/Data/TDM API drives are installed by default so no extra options are needed
   -> ./Setup buildrpm
   or
   -> ./Setup buildrpm --split_rpms
    
   Bulding RPMs for WAN/Data/TDM API and Asterisk/Zaptel
   -> ./Setup bulidrpm --protocol=DEF-TDM   --zaptel-path=/usr/src/zaptel
   or
   -> ./Setup bulidrpm --split_rpms --protocol=DEF-TDM   --zaptel-path=/usr/src/zaptel
    
    
   The Setup script will prompt you with a summary of what its trying to do and what kernel it will build against.  At this point you can choose to proceed or stop the build process.
    
    
   Building RPMS non interactively
     
   In some cases a non interactive build process is required.  The ./Setup script accepts the --silent flag that will default all options and build the RPM without any questions.
      
   -> ./Setup buildrpm --protocols=TDM --silent --zaptel-path=/usr/src/zaptel

 

---

Building RPMS (Non Interactive) 

In some cases a non interactive build process is required.  The ./Setup script accepts the --silent flag that will default all options and build the RPM without any questions.

1. -> ./Setup buildrpm --protocols=TDM --silent

 Setup Installation Script Usage

./Setup {command} [ optinal command extensions ]

        commands:
        ---------
        install        : Install/Upgrade WANPIPE
        remove     : Uninstall WANPIPE
        utility         : Re-compile WANPIPE Tools/Utilities
        drivers      : Re-install and Re-compile
                           WANPIPE kernel device drivers
        buildrpm   : Build the custom RPM binary for the
                           current system.
           
        helprpm    : RPM build help information.

        <any key>: Help

        optional command extensions:
        ----------------------------

        --silent    : Non interactive. Run all above commands
                         without user interaction.  Thus default
                         environment values are assumed such
                         as:

                        Linux source dir:  /lib/modules/2.6.9-16.ELsmp/build
                        Architecture    :  uname -m
                        Kernel Image    :  uname -r

        --builddir  : Install WANPIPE package into a virtual
                          directory. The path must be
                          absolute and must exist.  Default is set
                          to system root( / ).
                          eg: --builddir=/root/wanpipe_build

 

        --split_rpms: Option to split the rpm build into
                            util and modules package.  Thus,
                            splitting user space utilities and
                            kernel modules into two packages.
                            Default: one rpm package containing
                               both utilites and modules.
                            eg: ./Setup buildrpm --split_rpms  

        --with-linux: Build modules using a custom linux
                           source directory.  Default value is
                           set to /lib/modules/2.6.9-16.ELsmp/build
                           eg: --with-linux=/usr/src/linux-2.4.4

        --arch      : Build modules using a custom defined
                          architecture. (i686 or i586)
                          By default: (uname -m)
                          eg: --arch=i686

   
        --linux-vanilla: Compile wanpipe drivers as if the
                               current linux source is a vanilla source.
                               Used to remove the default assumption that
                               stock distribution  kernels pull changes
                               from higher linux kernel versions.

        --no-gcc-debug: Remove -g option out of gcc compile argumetns.

        --usr-cc           :Use diffrent c compler then default $(CC)

        --ocflags          : Extra compile flags to append to CFLAGS during driver compilation

        --kbuild-verbose : Enable linux 2.6. kernel build verbosity

        --noautostart    : Do not install boot start scripts to start wanpipe on boot

        --zaptel-path    : Source path to zaptel

        --no-zaptel-compile: Do not compile zaptel during installation
                                        Default mode is to compile zaptel source during install.

        --gz-modules    : Gzip the kernel modules when installing in /lib/modules directory

        --protocol         : Select protocol compilation options.
