flashrom rust bindings README
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Included within this folder are rust foreign function interface bindings for the
libflashrom API. libflashrom-sys is an automatically generated binding built
from the header file by the rust `bindgen` utility. It can be used for 'unsafe'
raw access to the libflashrom API. libflashrom is a library built on
libflashrom-sys, exporting a convential rust API.
See the /util/flashrom_tester/flashrom/src/flashromlib.rs file for an example of
usage.
Build Instructions
------------------
A rust toolchain is required, rustup is one source for that: https://rustup.rs/
From within child folders of this directory, where the Cargo.toml files live,
run:
cargo build
cargo test
cargo doc --open
The build process uses pkg-config to find the installed version of libflashrom.
To override the desired version you wish to compile against pkg-config can be
told where to find the desired header and library, for example:
env PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$HOME/src/flashrom/build/install/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig \
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/src/flashrom/build/install/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu \
cargo test
