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
|
