Build TI Z-Stack Linux Home Gateway reference design to run on both Linux 16.04 AMD64 (64Bit) and x86 (32Bit).

1. Download Z-Stack_Linux_Gateway-1.0.1-src-linux-installer.run from http://www.ti.com/tool/z-stack-archive.

2.a. If you use  Linux 16.04 x86 (32Bit), you can run Z-Stack_Linux_Gateway-1.0.1-src-linux-installer.run to extract Z-Stack Linux Gateway source code to your Linux Home folder\Z-Stack_Linux_Gateway-1.0.1-src

2.b. If you use  Linux 16.04 AMD64 (64Bit),you can refer to http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Sitara_Linux_SDK_64_Bit_Ubuntu_Support and have to run the following apt-get install command to install necessary packages before you run Z-Stack_Linux_Gateway-1.0.1-src-linux-installer.run 32 bit script to unpack Z-Stack Linux Gateway source code to your Linux Home folder\Z-Stack_Linux_Gateway-1.0.1-src.

 sudo apt-get install libc6:i386
 sudo apt-get install libx11-6:i386 libasound2:i386 libatk1.0-0:i386 libcairo2:i386 libcups2:i386 libdbus-glib-1-2:i386 libgconf-2-4:i386 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0:i386 libgtk-3-0:i386 libice6:i386 libncurses5:i386 libsm6:i386 liborbit2:i386 libudev1:i386 libusb-0.1-4:i386 libstdc++6:i386 libxt6:i386 libxtst6:i386 libgnomeui-0:i386 libusb-1.0-0-dev:i386 libcanberra-gtk-module:i386 gtk2-engines-murrine:i386

3. Revise the build script package_builder_bbb (in red) under “your Linux Home folder\Z-Stack_Linux_Gateway-1.0.1-src\Source\scripts\”

...
#Target platform:
    #export TARGET_PLATFORM="BEAGLEBONE_BLACK"
    export TARGET_PLATFORM="x86"
...
    cd $NPI_SOURCE/Projects/tools/LinuxHost
    make clean
    make create_output
    #make arch-all-armBeagleBone CC_armBeagleBone=$COMPILER |& tee -a $MAKE_LOG_FILE
    make $BUILD_TYPE |& tee -a $MAKE_LOG_FILE
...
# *** Copy resources ***********************************************************************************

#cp $NPI_SOURCE/Projects/tools/LinuxHost/out/NPI_lnx_armBeagleBone_server $BINARIES_SERVERS_DIR/NPI_lnx_${PLATFORM_SUBSTRING}_server
cp $NPI_SOURCE/Projects/tools/LinuxHost/out/NPI_lnx_${PLATFORM_SUBSTRING}_server $BINARIES_SERVERS_DIR/NPI_lnx_${PLATFORM_SUBSTRING}_server

4.Download protobuf 2.5.0-9ubuntu1 source package from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/protobuf/2.5.0-9ubuntu1 and build/install it with the following steps.
 
   4.a. Extra protobuf 2.5.0-9ubuntu1 to protobuf 2.5.0 folder and switch into protobuf 2.5.0 folder
   4.b. run "./configure"
   4.c. run "make"
   4.d. run "sudo make install"
   4.e. run "sudo ldconfig"

5.Download protobuf-c 0.15-1build1 source package from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/protobuf-c/0.15-1build1 and build/install it with the following steps.
 
   5.a. Extra protobuf-c 0.15-1build1 to protobuf-c-0.15 folder and switch into protobuf-c-0.15 folder
   5.b. run "./configure"
   5.c. run "make"
   5.d. run "sudo make install"
   5.e. run "sudo ldconfig"

6. Create a new folder "tools" and export TCLIB to it using the following lines:

   cd ~
   mkdir tools
   export TCLIB=~/tools

7. Switch to your Linux Home folder\Z-Stack_Linux_Gateway-1.0.1-src\Source\ and run ./build_all

8. The output will be at "your Linux Home folder\Z-Stack_Linux_Gateway-1.0.1-src\Source\ERROR_out\z-stack_linux_gateway_x86_binaries.tar". The build error is due to the lack of comparison file but the output binaries still work on x86 environment.

9. Copy and untar “z-stack_linux_gateway_x86_binaries.tar” to your working directory on x86 (called ).

10. Disable flowcontrol in NPI_Gateway.cfg like the followings:

    ...
    [UART]
    speed=115200 ; speed
    flowcontrol=0 ; 1=enabled 0=disable
    ...

11. Please follow the (Z-Stack Linux Gateway User Guide.pdf, Chap 6.3) to start the application. Please note you have to specify x86 when you run zigbeeHAgw like "sudo ./zigbeeHAgw x86" in one terminal and run "./start_application" on another terminal.
