Commit "45aabcddc5 utils/get-developers: really make it callable from elsewhere than the toplevel directory" had a unforeseen side-effect: the fact that check-developers with no arguments used to validate the syntax of the DEVELOPERS no longer works. Indeed, the parse_developers() call was moved *after* the check that verifies if at least one action is passed. Due to this, the check-DEVELOPERS verification in Gitlab CI, which invokes get-developers without argument to validate the DEVELOPERS file... no longer does anything useful. In order to fix this, we introduce an explicit action in get-developers to request the validation of the DEVELOPERS file. The implementation is trivial, as the validation is already done by calling parse_developers(), but at least now we have an action that does "nothing", except execute until the validation is done. This is also much more explicit than "invoke get-developers without arguments to just do validation". The initial investigation of the issue was done by Ricardo Martincoski <ricardo.martincoski@gmail.com> and reported at https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/buildroot/patch/20220528014832.289907-1-ricardo.martincoski@gmail.com/, but we have chosen to introduce a separate -v option rather than making the validation part of the existing -c action, which serves a different purpose.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC. If you would like to contribute patches, please read https://buildroot.org/manual.html#submitting-patches
