RIOT FreeBSD VM

About

This provides a Vagrantfile to compile and test the RIOT native platform on FreeBSD stable (12.1).

Requirements

Make sure your system satisfies the latest version of all following dependencies:

• VirtualBox
• VirtualBox Extension Pack
• Vagrant

General usage

The following commands must be run from this directory on the host system

vagrant plugin install vagrant-disksize # for big enough disk
vagrant up
vagrant provision   # depending on the vagrant version this might alreardy be
                    # executed with vagrant up

This will start up and set-up the virtual machine.

vagrant ssh

This logs you into the VM as vagrant user.

See the general vagrant README.md for more commands.

Inside the VM

Once logged in to the VM you can run compile and run tests e.g.

make -C tests/shell all -j
make -C tests/shell test

Even applications requiring network interface access should be able to work:

sudo dist/tools/tapsetup/tapsetup
make -C examples/gnrc_networking all -j16
make -C examples/gnrc_networking term
