2017-04-08pylibfdt: Allow setup.py to operate stand-aloneSimon Glass1-4/+10
At present we require that setup.py is executed from the Makefile, which sets up various important things like the list of files to build and the version number. However many installation systems expect to be able to change to the directory containing setup.py and run it. This allows them to support (for example) building/installing for multiple Python versions, varying installation paths, particular C flags, etc. The problem in implementing this is that we don't want to duplicate the information in the Makefile. A common solution (so I am told) is to parse the Makefile to obtain the required information. Update the setup.py script to read a few Makefiles when it does not see the required information in its environment. This allows installation using: ./pylibfdt/setup.py install Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
2017-03-29pylibfdt: Enable installation of Python moduleSimon Glass1-0/+7
Adjust the setup script to support installation, and call it from the Makefile if enabled. It will be disabled if we were unable to build the module (e.g. due to swig being missing), or the NO_PYTHON environment variable is set.

2017-03-29pylibfdt: Allow building to be disabledSimon Glass1-0/+6
Some build systems want to build python libraries separately from the rest of the build. Add a NO_PYTHON option to enable this. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

2016-09-28dtc: Remove "home page" linkDavid Gibson1-4/+0
The supposed home page hasn't existed for some time. We don't really have anything else, so remove the link from the README. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
