    Linux-ready firmware developer kit:
              HOWTO RUN STANDALONE
============================================

CONTENTS
---------

1. Run _all_ tests on your running Linux distro
2. Compile and run individual tests on your running Linux distro


-------------------------------------------------
1. Run _all_ tests on your running Linux distro
-------------------------------------------------

- # cd linuxfirmwarekit/
- # make
- This will create the binary: 'biostest'
- # ./biostest
- This will run all the tests in the plugins/ directory on your running Linux distro.
- The ending results will reside in results/ 


-----------------------------------------------------------------
2. Compile and run individual tests on your running Linux distro
-----------------------------------------------------------------

- Each test is contained in its own dir (e.g. battery/ cpufreq/ fan/, etc.)
- Either run 'make' in root dir to compile all tests, or cd into the individual's 
  test dir and run 'make'
- The resulting binaries will be copied into the plugins/ dir
- Execute .exe, .sh or .pl.  Preface with DEBUG=1 to output readable (non-hex) 
  output of tests.
  e.g. # DEBUG=1 ./fan.exe
- ( note, make sure you can link with linuxfirmwarekit/libstandalone.so )
- ( note, for shelltests, make sure that linuxfirmwarekit/shelltools is in your $PATH )


* Root user note: Running with 'root' privileges needed when performing some plugin tests.

* Proxy note: make sure your proxy is set correctly for wget commands (set variables http_proxy, ftp_proxy, etc.)
