mockbuild-all.pl treated xnba-undi/grub2-xcat as x86-only @SHARED_NOARCH imported onto ppc, so an x86 build failure rippled into a fatal "grub2-xcat missing" on ppc; both actually build on any arch (noarch repackaging of committed artifacts) and xCAT requires them on ppc too. Un-gate xnba-undi and drop the import so each host builds a complete, self-sufficient dep repo. Add a single --output that re-roots all NFS-shared output plus a fail-fast lock at <output>/.lock (owner-pid guarded so forked build children do not delete it). Default gpg-key-name to the real "xCAT Signing Key" and --xcat-source to ../xcat-core. Make concurrent builds safe: give the genesis buildrpms.pl its own HOME/rpmbuild tree (a shared /root/rpmbuild raced across parallel targets), and nest the xnba/goconserver rpmbuild dirs under the run-scoped --work-dir (they hard-coded /var/tmp/xcat-rpmbuild-* and wiped each other). Add --parallel-targets/--max-parallel, defaulting to serial since the per-package scripts still share repo tarballs under full parallelism.

Get latest ipxe source from git.ipxe.org
----------------------------------------
Current ipxe version is 1.21.1 (released Dec 31,2020), the tar command below will generate xnba-1.21.1.tar.bz2
1. Clone ipxe from github - git clone git://git.ipxe.org/ipxe.git
2. Verify version number - git describe --tags --always --long --abbrev=1 --match "v*"
3. Rename ipxe directory to xnba-<version> - mv ipxe xnba-1.21.1
4. Tar xnba-<version> directory - tar Jcvf xnba-1.21.1.tar.bz2 --exclude-vcs xnba-1.21.1
5. Optionally, if building is needed - cd src; make
Patch ipxe source
-----------------
1. Clone xcat-dep/xnba and create a new branch: git clone git@github.com:xcat2/xcat-dep.git; cd xcat-dep; git checkout -b <new branch>
2. Checkin the generated xnba-<version>.tar.bz2 file from above into git
3. If needed, modify existing or create additional patch files and checkin into git. The patch files will automatically be applied during build step below.
The following patches currently contain modification for xCAT Network Boot Agent
ipxe-xnbaclass.patch
ipxe-machyp.patch
ipxe-dhcp.patch
ipxe-branding.patch
ipxe-verbump.patch
3.a To modify existing or create additional patch file:
i. git clone git://git.ipxe.org/ipxe.git
ii. Make changes to the files under ipxe/src directory
iii. git diff <changed file> > my.patch
iv. If creating a new patch, rename my.patch to something like ipxe-<xxx>.patch
v. If modifying existing patch, replace the contents of that .patch file with the my.patch
vi. Be carefull of spaces vs. tabs. If original source file contained tabs, the .patch file should also have tabs for the patched lines.
vii. Checkin the new or modified patch files into the same git branch.
Build xNBA rpm for xcat-dep
---------------------------
1. On x86 RHEL machine, install required package: git, xz-devel and gcc
2. Checkout the branch created above: git clone https://github.com/xcat2/xcat-dep.git; cd xcat-dep; git checkout <new branch>
3. Copy 5 patch files listed above and xnba-<version>.tar.bz2 from cloned git directory into /root/rpmbuild/SOURCES/. Create that directory if one does not already exist.
4. RPM build: cd xcat-dep/xnba; rpmbuild -ba xnba-undi.spec
5. Copy generated rpm /root/rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch/xnba-undi-<version>.noarch.rpm into /gsa/pokgsa/projects/x/xcat/build/linux/xcat-dep/
6. Create links from <os/arch> subdirs to the /root/rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch/xnba-undi-<version>.noarch.rpm
Build xNBA deb for xcat-dep
---------------------------
1. On x86 Ubuntu machine, install required packages: git, liblzma-dev, dpkg-dev, debhelper, and quilt
2. Checkout the branch created above: git clone https://github.com/xcat2/xcat-dep.git; cd xcat-dep; git checkout <new branch>
3. DEB build: cd xcat-dep/xnba; ./make_deb.sh: build the package from the binaries under "binary" directory
4. ./rebuild.sh : build the package from source code, this should only run on amd64/x86_64 platform, it will update the files under "binary" directory after compilation
5. Copy generated deb file xcat-dep/xnba-undi_<version>_all.deb into /gsa/pokgsa/projects/x/xcat/build/ubuntu/xcat-dep/xcat-dep/pool/main/x/xnba-undi/
and /gsa/pokgsa/projects/x/xcat/build/ubuntu/xcat-dep/debs
