=== Recommended directory structure
When customizing Buildroot for your project, you will be creating one or
more project-specific files that need to be stored somewhere. While most
of these files could be placed in _any_ location as their path is to be
specified in the Buildroot configuration, the Buildroot developers
recommend a specific directory structure which is described in this
section.
Orthogonal to this directory structure, you can choose _where_ you place
this structure itself: either inside the Buildroot tree, or outside of
it using +BR2_EXTERNAL+. Both options are valid, the choice is up to you.
-----
+-- board/
| +-- <company>/
| +-- <boardname>/
| +-- linux.config
| +-- busybox.config
| +-- <other configuration files>
| +-- post_build.sh
| +-- post_image.sh
| +-- rootfs_overlay/
| | +-- etc/
| | +-- <some file>
| +-- patches/
| +-- foo/
| | +-- <some patch>
| +-- libbar/
| +-- <some other patches>
|
+-- configs/
| +-- <boardname>_defconfig
|
+-- package/
| +-- <company>/
| +-- Config.in (if not using BR2_EXTERNAL)
| +-- <company>.mk (if not using BR2_EXTERNAL)
| +-- <boardname>/
| +-- package1/
| | +-- Config.in
| | +-- package1.mk
| +-- package2/
| +-- Config.in
| +-- package2.mk
|
+-- Config.in (if using BR2_EXTERNAL)
+-- external.mk (if using BR2_EXTERNAL)
------
Details on the files shown above are given further in this chapter.
Note: if you choose to place this structure outside of the Buildroot
tree using +BR2_EXTERNAL+, the <company> and possibly <boardname>
components may be superfluous and can be left out.
