+Third-Party Packages
+--------------------
This section describes how to build and add an RTEMS third-party package to the
RSB.
A third-party package is a library or software package built to run on RTEMS,
-examples are NTP, Net-Snmp, libjpeg or Python. These pieces of software can be
-used to help build RTEMS applications. The package is built for a specific
-BSP and so requires a working RTEMS tool chain and an installed RTEMS Board
-Support Package (BSP).

+can be used to help build RTEMS applications. The package is built for a
+specific BSP and so requires a working RTEMS tool chain, an installed RTEMS
+Board Support Package (BSP), and a network stack if the package uses
+networking resources.
-The RSB support for building third-party packages is based around the *pkconfig*
-files (PC) installed with the BSP. The pkgconfig support in RTEMS is considered
-experimental and can have some issues for some BSPs. This issue is rooted deep
-in the RTEMS build system. If you have any issues with this support please ask

Vertical Integration
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The RSB supports horizontal integration with support for multiple
architectures. Adding packages to the RSB as libraries is vertical
-integration. Building the GCC tool chain requires you build an assembler before
-you build a compiler. The same can be done for third-party libraries, you can
-crate build sets that stack library dependences vertically to create a *stack*.

Building
^^^^^^^^
To build a package you need to have a suitable RTEMS tool chain and RTEMS BSP
installed. The set builder command line requires you provide the tools path,
-the RTEMS host, and the prefix path to the installed RTEMS BSP. The prefix
-needs to be the same as the prefix used to build RTEMS.
-
-To build Net-SNMP the command is:
+the RTEMS architecture (host), the BSP, and the prefix path used to the
+install RTEMS BSP.
+
+The RSB prefix option (``--prefix``) provided when building a package is the
+path to:
+
+#. The tools, RTEMS kernel and any dependent libraries such as LibBSD. The
+ package will be installed into the prefix path. This build configuration can
+ be used to make a complete set of development tools and libraries for a
+ project or product under a single path.
+
+#. The RTEMS kernel and any dependent libraries such as LibBSD. The tools path
+ needs to be in the environment path (not recommended) or provided to the set
+ builder command by the ``--with-tools`` option. The package will be
+ installed into the prefix path. This build configuration can be used when
+ you have a set of tools used with a number of RTEMS BSPs. The tools can be
+ shared between the different BSPs.
+
+#. The path the package is installed into. The tools path needs to be in the
+ environment path (not recommended) or provided to the set builder command
+ using the ``--with-tools`` option. The path to the RTEMS kernel and any
+ dependent libraries such as LibBSD needs to be supplied to the set builder
+ command using the ``--with-rtems`` option. This build configuration can be
+ used when you have a set of libraries you are testing with a changing RTEMS
+ kernel. Becareful using this configuration as changes in RTEMS interfaces
+ may require rebuilding these packages.
+
+The set builder command option ``--host`` is used to provide the RTEMS
+architecture the package is being built for. For example ``--host=arm-rtems5``
+is used for any ARM BSP.
+
+The set builder command option ``--with-rtems-bsp`` is the RTEMS BSP the
+package is being built for. The BSP is searched for under the path provided by
+the command option ``--with-rtems`` and if this option is not provided the
+provided prefix is searched.
+
+The following example builds and installs the Curl networking package for the
+ARM BeagleBone Black BSP installing it into the same path the tools, RTEMS
+kernel and LibBSD are installed in.

Adding
^^^^^^
-Adding a package requires you first build it manually by downloading the source
-for the package and building it for RTEMS using the command line of a standard
-shell. If the package has not been ported to RTEMS you will need to port it and
-this may require you asking questions on the package's user or development
-support lists as well as RTEMS's developers list. Your porting effort may end
-up with a patch. RTEMS requires a patch be submitted upstream to the project's
-community as well as RTEMS so it can be added to the RTEMS Tools git
-repository. A patch in the RTEMS Tools git reposiitory can then be referenced
-by an RSB configuration file.
-
-A package may create executables, for example NTP normally creates executables
-such as ``ntdp``, ``ntpupdate``, or ``ntpdc``. These executables can be useful
-when testing the package however they are of limited use by RTEMS users because
-they cannot be directly linked into a user application. Users need to link to
-the functions in these executables or even the executable as a function placed
-in libraries. If the package does not export the code in a suitable manner
-please contact the project's commuinity and see if you can work them to provide
-a way for the code to be exported. This may be difficult because exporting

-A package requires 3 files to be created:
-
-- The first file is the RTEMS build set file and it resides in the
- ``rtems/config/%{rtems_version}`` path in a directory tree based on the
- FreeBSD ports collection. For the NTP package and RTEMS 4.11 this is
- ``rtems/config/4.11/net/ntp.bset``. If you do not know the FreeBSD port path
- for the package you are adding please ask. The build set file references a
- specific configuration file therefore linking the RTEMS version to a specific
- version of the package you are adding. Updating the package to a new version
- requires changing the build set to the new configuration file.
-
-- The second file is an RTEMS version specific configuration file and it
- includes the RSB RTEMS BSP support. These configuration files reside in the
- ``rtems/config`` tree again under the FreeBSD port's path name. For example
- the NTP package is found in the ``net`` directory of the FreeBSD ports tree
- so the NTP configuration path is ``rtems/config/net/ntp-4.2.6p5-1.cfg`` for
- that specific version. The configuration file name typically provides version
- specific references and the RTEMS build set file references a specific
- version. This configuration file references the build configuration file held
- in the common configuration file tree.
-
-- The build configuration. This is a common script that builds the package. It
- resides in the ``source-builder/config`` directory and typically has the
- packages's name with the major version number. If the build script does not
- change for each major version number a *common* base script can be created
- and included by each major version configuration script. The *gcc* compiler
- configuration is an example. This approach lets you branch a version if
- something changes that is not backwards compatible. It is important to keep
- existing versions building. The build configuration should be able to build a
- package for the build host as well as RTEMS as the RSB abstracts the RTEMS
- specific parts. See :ref:`Configuration` for more details.
+Adding a package requires you first build it manually by downloading the
+source for the package and building it for RTEMS using the command line of a
+standard shell. If the package has not been ported to RTEMS you will need to
+port it and this may require asking questions on the package's user or
+development support lists as well as RTEMS's developers list. Your porting
+effort may end up with a patch. RTEMS requires a patch be submitted upstream
+to the project's community as well as RTEMS. The RTEMS submission is best as a
+patch attached to ticket in Trac. A patch attached to a ticket can be
+referenced by an RSB configuration file and used in a build.
+
+.. sidebar:: Patches in Trac
+
+ Attaching patches for packages to Trac tickets provides an easy to reference
+ URL the RSB can fetch. The patch URL does not change across RTEMS versions
+ and it does not depend on the state or layout of a git repo.
+
+
+A package may create executables, for example Curl normally creates an
+executable called ``curl`` how ever it will probailty not run because the
+needed RTEMS configuration is not suitable. If found the RSB automatically
+adds the RTEMS library ``librtemsdefaultconfig.a`` to the ``LIBS`` variable
+used to link executables. This library provides a limited configuraiton
+suitable for linking an executable however it is not a set up that allows the
+resulting executable to run correctly. As a result it is best not to install
+these executables.
+
+A custom RTEMS patch to an executate's source code can turn it into a function
+that can be called by the RTEMS shell. Users can call the function in their
+executables simulating the running of the package's command. If the package
+does not export the code in a suitable manner please contact the project's
+commuinity and see if you can work with them to provide a way for the code to
+be exported. This may be difficult because exporting internal headers and
+functions opens the project up to API compatibility issues they did not have
+before. In the simplest case attempting to get the code into a static library
+with a single call entry point exported in a header would give RTEMS user's
+access to the package's main functionality.
+
+A package requires at least three (3) files to be created:
+
+ Published Package Name:
+ The first file is the RTEMS build set file and it resides under the
+ ``rtems/config`` path in a directory tree based on the FreeBSD ports
+ collection. For the Curl package and RTEMS 5 this is
+ ``rtems/config/ftp/curl.bset``. If you do not know the FreeBSD port path
+ for the package you are adding please ask. The build set file references a
+ specific configuration file therefore linking the RTEMS version to a
+ specific version of the package you are adding. Updating the package to a
+ new version requires changing the build set to the new configuration file.
+
+ Package Version Configuration File:
+ The second file is an RTEMS version specific configuration file and it
+ includes the RSB RTEMS BSP support. These configuration files reside in
+ the ``rtems/config`` tree and under the FreeBSD port's path name. For
+ example the Curl package is found in the ``ftp`` directory of the FreeBSD
+ ports tree so the Curl configuration path is
+ ``rtems/config/ftp/curl-7.65.1-1.cfg`` for that specific version. The
+ configuration file name typically provides version specific references and
+ the RTEMS build set file references a specific version. This configuration
+ file references the build configuration file held in the common
+ configuration file tree. An SHA512 hash is required to verify the source
+ package that is downloaded.
+
+ Build Configuration File:
+ The build configuration. This is a common script that builds the
+ package. It resides in the ``source-builder/config`` directory and
+ typically has the packages's name with the major version number. If the
+ build script does not change for each major version number a *common* base
+ script can be created and included by each major version configuration
+ script. The *gcc* compiler configuration is an example. This approach lets
+ you branch a version if something changes that is not backwards
+ compatible. It is important to keep existing versions building. The build
+ configuration should be able to build a package for the build host as well
+ as RTEMS as the RSB abstracts the RTEMS specific parts. See
+ :ref:`Configuration` for more details.
+
+Host and Build Flags
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+A package's build is controlled by setting the compiler names and flags that
+are used when building. The RSB provides a macro called
+``%{host_build_flags}`` to define these flags for you. Use this macro in the
+```%build`` section of your config script file to define the set up needed to
+build a native package or to cross-compile to a specific host such as RTEMS
+. The typical ``%build`` section is:
+
+.. code-block:: spec
+
+ %build
+ build_top=$(pwd)
+
+ %{build_directory}
+
+ mkdir -p ${build_dir}
+ cd ${build_dir}
+
+ %{host_build_flags}
+
+ ../${source_dir_curl}/configure \
+ --host=%{_host} \
+ --prefix=%{_prefix} \
+ --bindir=%{_bindir} \
+ --exec_prefix=%{_exec_prefix} \
+ --includedir=%{_includedir} \
+ --libdir=%{_libdir} \
+ --libexecdir=%{_libexecdir} \
+ --mandir=%{_mandir} \
+ --infodir=%{_infodir} \
+ --datadir=%{_datadir}
+
+ %{__make} %{?_smp_mflags} all
+
+ cd ${build_top}
+
+The ``%{host_build_flags}`` checks if the build is native for the development
+host or a cross-compile build.
+
+For a cross-complication build the flags are:
+
+``CC``, ``CC_FOR_HOST``:
+ The C compiler used to build the package. For an RTEMS build this is the
+ RTEMS C compiler. For example the ARM architecture and RTEMS 5 the value is
+ set to ``arm-rtems5-gcc``.
+
+``CXX``, ``CXX_FOR_HOST``:
+ The C++ compiler used to build the package. For an RTEMS build this is the
+ RTEMS C++ compiler. For example the ARM architecture and RTEMS 5 the value is
+ set to ``arm-rtems5-g++``.
+
+``CPPFLAGS``, ``CPPFLAGS_FOR_HOST``:
+ The C compiler preprocessor flags used to build the package. Set any include
+ paths in this variable as some configure scripts will warns you if include
+ paths are set in the ``CFLAGS``.
+
+``CFLAGS``, ``CFLAGS_FOR_HOST``:
+ The C compiler flags used when running the C compiler. Set any include paths
+ in the ``CPPFLAGS`` variable as some configure scripts will warn you if
+ include paths in this variable.
+
+``CXXFLAGS``, ``CXXFLAGS_FOR_HOST``:
+ The C++ compiler flags used when running the C++ compiler. Set any include
+ paths in the ``CPPFLAGS`` variable as some configure scripts will warn you if
+ include paths in this variable.
+
+``LDFLAGS``, ``LDFLAGS_FOR_HOST``:
+ The linker flags used whne link package executables. The C or C++ compiler
+ is used to run the linker.
+
+``LIBS``, ``LIBS_FOR_HOST``:
+ A list of libraries passed to the linker when linking an executable.
+
+``CC_FOR_BUILD``:
+ The native C compiler.
+
+``CXX_FOR_BUILD``:
+ The native C++ compiler.
+
+``CPPFLAGS_FOR_BUILD``:
+ The C preprocessor flags used when preprocessoring a native C source file.
+
+``CFLAGS_FOR_BUILD``:
+ The native C compiler flags used when running the native C compiler.
+
+``CXXFLAGS_FOR_BUILD``:
+ The native C++ compiler flags used when running the native C++ compiler.
+
+``LDFLAGS_FOR_BUILD``:
+ The native linker flags used when linking a native executable.
+
+``LIBS_FOR_BUILD``:
+ The native libraries used to when linking a native executable.
+
+For a native build the flags are:
+
+``CC``, ``CC_FOR_BUILD``:
+ The native C compiler.
+
+``CXX``, ``CXX_FOR_BUILD``:
+ The native C++ compiler.
+
+``CPPFLAGS``, ``CPPFLAGS_FOR_BUILD``:
