## Build SONiC Switch Images
2016-03-08 13:42:20 -06:00
2017-03-04 15:48:36 -06:00
# Description
2017-11-03 19:13:39 -05:00
Following is the instruction on how to build an [(ONIE) ](https://github.com/opencomputeproject/onie ) compatiable network operating system (NOS) installer image for network switches, and also how to build docker images running inside the NOS. Note that SONiC image are build per ASIC platform. Switches using the same ASIC platform share a common image. For a list of supported switches and ASIC, please refer to this [list ](https://github.com/Azure/SONiC/wiki/Supported-Devices-and-Platforms )
2016-03-08 13:42:20 -06:00
2017-05-10 13:21:56 -05:00
# Hardware
Any server can be a build image server. We are using a server with 1T hard disk. The OS is Ubuntu 16.04.
2017-02-27 02:13:36 -06:00
# Prerequisites
## SAI Version
2017-10-12 20:20:46 -05:00
Please refer to [SONiC roadmap ](https://github.com/Azure/SONiC/wiki/Sonic-Roadmap-Planning ) on the SAI version for each SONiC release.

## Clone or fetch the code repository with all git submodules
To clone the code repository recursively, assuming git version 1.9 or newer:
2016-03-22 23:23:05 -05:00
2018-01-03 23:45:08 -06:00
git clone https://github.com/Azure/sonic-buildimage.git
2016-03-22 23:23:05 -05:00
2017-02-27 02:13:36 -06:00
## Usage
2016-12-20 06:05:22 -06:00
2017-03-04 12:11:20 -06:00
To build SONiC installer image and docker images, run the following commands:
2016-03-08 13:42:20 -06:00
2018-01-03 23:45:08 -06:00
cd sonic-buildimage
# (Optional) Checkout a specific branch. By default, it uses master branch
git checkout [branch_name]
2017-10-24 21:49:37 -05:00
# Execute make init once after cloning the repo, or fetched remote repo with submodule updates
make init
# Execute make configure once to configure ASIC
2017-03-01 19:05:13 -06:00
make configure PLATFORM=[ASIC_VENDOR]
2017-10-24 21:49:37 -05:00
2016-12-06 17:29:25 -06:00
make
2016-03-08 13:42:20 -06:00
2017-12-24 01:34:15 -06:00
**NOTE** :
2018-02-15 19:44:16 -06:00
- Recommend reserving 50G free space to build one platform.
- Use `http_proxy=[your_proxy] https_proxy=[your_proxy] make` to enable http(s) proxy in the build process.
- Add your user account to `docker` group and use your user account to make. `root` or `sudo` are not supported.

The SONiC installer contains all docker images needed. SONiC uses one image for all devices of a same ASIC vendor. The supported ASIC vendors are:
2017-03-04 12:11:20 -06:00
2017-03-01 19:05:13 -06:00
- PLATFORM=broadcom
2017-10-16 00:18:54 -05:00
- PLATFORM=marvell
2017-03-01 19:05:13 -06:00
- PLATFORM=mellanox
- PLATFORM=cavium
2017-03-04 12:11:20 -06:00
- PLATFORM=centec
2017-12-22 12:04:29 -06:00
- PLATFORM=nephos
2017-01-29 18:10:35 -06:00
- PLATFORM=p4
2017-11-03 19:13:39 -05:00
- PLATFORM=vs
2016-12-06 17:29:25 -06:00
2017-03-04 12:11:20 -06:00
For Broadcom ASIC, we build ONIE and EOS image. EOS image is used for Arista devices, ONIE image is used for all other Broadcom ASIC based devices.
make configure PLATFORM=broadcom
# build ONIE image
make target/sonic-broadcom.bin
# build EOS image
make target/sonic-aboot-broadcom.swi
2017-02-27 02:13:36 -06:00
You may find the rules/config file useful. It contains configuration options for the build process, like adding more verbosity or showing dependencies, username and password for base image etc.
2016-12-06 17:29:25 -06:00
Every docker image is built and saved to target/ directory.
2017-02-27 02:13:36 -06:00
So, for instance, to build only docker-database, execute:
2016-12-06 17:29:25 -06:00
make target/docker-database.gz
Same goes for debian packages, which are under target/debs/:
make target/debs/swss_1.0.0_amd64.deb
2017-02-27 02:13:36 -06:00
Every target has a clean target, so in order to clean swss, execute:
2016-12-06 17:29:25 -06:00
make target/debs/swss_1.0.0_amd64.deb-clean
2016-03-08 13:42:20 -06:00
2017-02-27 02:13:36 -06:00
It is recommended to use clean targets to clean all packages that are built together, like dev packages for instance. In order to be more familiar with build process and make some changes to it, it is recommended to read this short [Documentation ](README.buildsystem.md ).

2017-02-27 02:13:36 -06:00
## Notes:
- If you are running make for the first time, a sonic-slave-${USER} docker image will be built automatically.
This may take a while, but it is a one-time action, so please be patient.

## GitHub Workflow
2016-03-08 13:42:20 -06:00
We're following basic GitHub Flow. If you have no idea what we're talking about, check out [GitHub's official guide ](https://guides.github.com/introduction/flow/ ). Note that merge is only performed by the repository maintainer.
Guide for performing commits:
* Isolate each commit to one component/bugfix/issue/feature
* Use a standard commit message format:
> [component/folder touched]: Description intent of your changes
>
> [List of changes]
>
> Signed-off-by: Your Name your@email.com
For example:
> swss-common: Stabilize the ConsumerTable
>
> * Fixing autoreconf
> * Fixing unit-tests by adding checkers and initialize the DB before start
> * Adding the ability to select from multiple channels
> * Health-Monitor - The idea of the patch is that if something went wrong with the notification channel,
> we will have the option to know about it (Query the LLEN table length).
>
> Signed-off-by: user@dev.null
* Each developer should fork this repository and [add the team as a Contributor ](https://help.github.com/articles/adding-collaborators-to-a-personal-repository )
* Push your changes to your private fork and do "pull-request" to this repository
* Use a pull request to do code review
* Use issues to keep track of what is going on
