[LLVMdev] Does someone has experience with Canadian cross build of LLVM compiler?
Hi, Does anyone have experience with doing Canadian cross-builds of LLVM compiler? I need some help here... I'm a new with LLVM, so please don't be too harsh on me. I am building LLVM cross-compiler (and as I mentioned I'm doing it via canadian cross-build): Build platform = Linux, Host platform = Windows Target platform = Linux I'm using mingw32 compiler toolchain to cross-build LLVM cross-compiler. (My CC=i386-mingw32-gcc, CXX=i386-mingw32-g++, LD=i386-mingw32-ld, etc) During the build, configure complains that it can't run C compiled program on build platform (which makes sense, since mingw32 compiler creates an executable that cannot be run on build platform (linux)). SRC_DIR="/home/ksanina"; export SRC_DIR; BUILD_DIR="/home/ksanina/build/mx-debug-llvm-all"; export BUILD_DIR; PWD="/home/ksanina"; export PWD; PATH="/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin"; export PATH; BUILD_DIR=/home/ksanina/build/mx-debug-llvm ; export BUILD_DIR ; INSTALL_DIR=/home/ksanina/install/mx-debug ; export INSTALL_DIR ; AR="i386-mingw32-ar"; export AR; AS="i386-mingw32-as"; export AS; CC="i386-mingw32-gcc"; export CC; CXX="i386-mingw32-g++"; export CXX; LD="i386-mingw32-ld"; export LD; CFLAGS="-m32 -g"; export CFLAGS; CXXFLAGS="-m32 -g"; export CXXFLAGS; LDFLAGS=""; export LDFLAGS; CFLAGS="-std=gnu89 $CFLAGS" make -f /home/ksanina/Makefile.llvm -C $BUILD_DIR all CONFIG_FLAGS="--host=i386-mingw32 --build=x86_64-linux-gnu --target=i386-linux --prefix=/home/ksanina/install/mx-debug --enable-validation" MAKE_FLAGS="VERBOSE=1 " TESTSUITEmake[1]: Entering directory `/home/ksanina/build/mx-debug-llvm' make VERBOSE=1 make[2]: Entering directory `/home/ksanina/build/mx-debug-llvm' if [ ! -f BuildTools/Makefile ]; then \ /home/ksanina/llvm/autoconf/mkinstalldirs BuildTools; \ cd BuildTools ; \ unset CFLAGS ; \ unset CXXFLAGS ; \ /home/ksanina/llvm/configure --build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu \ --host=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --target=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu; \ cd .. ; \ fi; \ (unset SDKROOT; \ make -C BuildTools \ BUILD_DIRS_ONLY=1 \ UNIVERSAL= \ ENABLE_OPTIMIZED=1 \ ENABLE_PROFILING= \ ENABLE_COVERAGE= \ DISABLE_ASSERTIONS=1 \ ENABLE_EXPENSIVE_CHECKS= \ CFLAGS= \ CXXFLAGS= \ ) || exit 1; checking build system type... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu checking host system type... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu checking target system type... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu checking type of operating system we're going to host on...

But I'm sure there is some other, more elegant way of doing it (without actually changing llvm/Makefile). I'm sure other people have done Canadian cross build and resolve this issue some other way. If you've done it before, please advise on how better to do it. Thanks a lot! Ekaterina. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hello, Ekaterina. FYI, my configure has '--host=i686-pc-mingw32' w/o any additional variables. and then the build host (ppc fedora 12) has toolchain 'i686-pc-mingw32-*'. It could build everything successfully, but I have not built it for a few months :p 2010/11/30 Ekaterina Sanina <ekaterina.sanina at gmail.com>:> cross-compile-build-tools: > $(Verb) if [ ! -f BuildTools/Makefile ]; then \ > $(MKDIR) BuildTools; \ > cd BuildTools ; \ > unset CFLAGS ; \ > unset CXXFLAGS ; \ > + AR=$(BUILD_AR) ;\ > + AS=$(BUILD_AS) ;\ > + LD=$(BUILD_LD) ;\ > + CC=$(BUILD_CC) ;\ > + CXX=$(BUILD_CXX) ;\ > $(PROJ_SRC_DIR)/configure --build=$(BUILD_TRIPLE) \ > --host=$(BUILD_TRIPLE) --target=$(BUILD_TRIPLE); \ > cd .. ; \+1. It would be useful when buildhost's cc is not 'gcc'. eg. BUILD_CXX='ccache g++' ...Takumi

Hi Takumi, Thank you for the reply. It turned out that my problem was caused by setting up environment (CC, LD, etc) variables before invoking configure. That kind of stuff seems to confuse configure. Anton Korobeynikov helped me to resolve my problem. When I removed initialization of environment variables before invoking configure script, I was able to build llvm compiler (using Canadian cross build) right off the box. Thanks! Regards, Ekaterina.
