WireGuard recipes for OpenEmbedded

WireGuard recipes for OpenEmbedded

[Stefan Agner]

Hi Jason,

Just posted two recipes which allow building WireGuard using
OpenEmbedded:
http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-devel/2017-April/112075.html

OE makes it easy to build WireGuard for all sorts of platforms. I
created a quick test VPN between an ARM and 64-bit MIPS machine, seems
to work fine, see
https://blog.printk.io/2017/04/openembedded-recipes-for-wireguard-vpn/

Keep the amazing work, looking forward to see WireGuard upstream :-)

Hey Stefan,

Very cool! Thanks for posting it. Let me know when it gets accepted,
and we can add official instructions for the package on
wireguard.io/install/ . Nice blog post too.

The recipes are now in the OpenEmbedded pyro and master branch. The pyro
branch should end up in the next Yocto release soon (Yocto 2.3).

As for the "installation instructions", since this is meta distribution
people will have to build from source... Not sure what you would like to
add there. Adding IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " wireguard-tools" to
conf/local.conf and building using "bitbake core-image-minimal" is
probably the shortest path to build a complete image with wireguard.
