[Linuxptp-users] Cross compiling for ARM imx6

[Axel H. <aho...@gm...>]

Hello all,

all the best for 2017!

I try to cross compile linuxptpt on Xubuntu 16.04 for i686 32 bit with a
Linux 4.1.15 cross tool chain for ARM's imx6 and gcc 5.2.0, but I get some
erros and I'm not expert enough to get this resolved, unfortunately.

Perhaps somebody reading this list has an idea what I did do wrong.

This is the make output:
imx6@imx6-VirtualBox:~/Projects/linuxptp-1.8$ make
arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-gcc -Wall -DVER=1.8  -D_GNU_SOURCE
-DHAVE_ONESTEP_SYNC     -c -o ptp4l.o ptp4l.c

Probably you only need to add --sysroot

	make EXTRA_CFLAGS=--sysroot=$SDKTARGETSYSROOT

Hi Richard,

thanks a lot for your reply.

That helped a bit, but then

from ptp4l.c:20:
/opt/fsl-imx-x11/4.1.15-1.2.0/sysroots/cortexa9hf-vfp-neon-poky-linux-gnueab
i/usr/include/gnu/stubs.h:7:29: fatal error: gnu/stubs-soft.h: No such file
or directory

And indeed, this time I can't find stubs-soft.h in the file system. So
either __ARM_PCS_VFP needs to be defined or stubs-soft.h needs to be
existing.

When I define __ARM_PCS_VFP I get the next error
arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-gcc -Wall -DVER=1.8  -D_GNU_SOURCE
-DHAVE_ONESTEP_SYNC
--sysroot=/opt/fsl-imx-x11/4.1.15-1.2.0/sysroots/cortexa9hf-vfp-neon-poky-li

            ^
<builtin>: recipe for target 'clock.o' failed
make: *** [clock.o] Error 1

So it seems that there is no posix_clock.h available.

Thanks again and best regards
Axel

Try adding the -m flags into EXTRA_CFLAGS as well.

 -march=armv7-a -mfloat-abi=hard -mfpu=neon -mtune=cortex-a9

That's it. Now the only thing missing seems to be the header for
clock_adjtime. I will try to find out how I can install this in my cross
toolchain.

Thank you very much Richard!
