Building the stratum_bmv2 package fails at bazel build

[hkgb77]

Following steps were followed (as per https://github.com/stratum/stratum/blob/main/stratum/hal/bin/bmv2/README.md) : setup_dev_env.sh # You're inside the Docker container now bazel build //stratum/hal/bin/bmv2:stratum_bmv2_deb

It fails with the following error: ubuntu@4ac47be886bc:/stratum$ bazel build //stratum/hal/bin/bmv2:stratum_bmv2_deb DEBUG: Rule 'com_github_nelhage_rules_boost' indicated that a canonical reproducible form can be obtained by modifying arguments shallow_since = "1576879360 -0800" DEBUG: Repository com_github_nelhage_rules_boost instantiated at: /stratum/WORKSPACE:39:13: in /stratum/bazel/deps.bzl:222:23: in stratum_deps Repository rule git_repository defined at: /home/ubuntu/.cache/bazel/_bazel_ubuntu/1b07b1db06ec9ee22c71eac6f0bd4549/external/bazel_tools/tools/build_defs/repo/git.bzl:199:33: in ERROR: /stratum/stratum/hal/bin/bmv2/BUILD:65:20: in genrule rule //stratum/hal/bin/bmv2:license_file_stratum_bmv2_legal: target '//:NOTICE' is not visible from target '//stratum/hal/bin/bmv2:license_file_stratum_bmv2_legal'.

Hi @hkgb77 ,

coul you specify a bit more your problem? I don't know if it can helps but you can dowload from this link the .deb file https://github.com/stratum/stratum/releases/tag/2022-06-30

Thanks for the response. Following is what i wish to acheive.

I want to run stratum with bmv2 s/w switch and integrate that with a custom P4 pipeline fed by a proprietary controller.

For that I was willing to compile and run this without mininet and hence started following the link: https://github.com/stratum/stratum/blob/main/stratum/hal/bin/bmv2/README.md

I think that https://github.com/stratum/stratum/releases/tag/2022-06-30 is a single istance of bmv2+stratum

I'm not able to reproduce your issue:

/stratum$ bazel build //stratum/hal/bin/bmv2:license_file_stratum_bmv2_legal
INFO: Analyzed target //stratum/hal/bin/bmv2:license_file_stratum_bmv2_legal (0 packages loaded, 0 targets configured).

But, I would focus your attention on this line:

ERROR: /stratum/stratum/hal/bin/bmv2/BUILD:65:20:

Check the visibility declaration of the former target if you think the dependency

Have you made local changes to the BUILD or NOTICE files in the top level directory?
