Hi all,
Recently I downloaded alsa-driver 1.0.22 and tried to build for i.MX27 platform.
The "INSTALL" file enclosed in this release requires "--with-cross=arm-linux-" configuration option to cross-compile alsa driver for this ARM platform.
Here is my build process
#./configure --with-cross=arm-linux- --with-kernel=/home/working/bsp/Kernel/linux-2.6.19.2 --with-build=/home/working/bsp/ Kernel/linux-2.6.19.2 --with-moddir=/home/working/bsp/tmp --with-debug=full --enable-dynamic-minors --with-cards=all
checking for gcc... arm-linux-gcc checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... configure: error: cannot run C compiled programs. If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'. See `config.log' for more details.
It seems that "--host=arm-linux" should be provided to configure script.
Host is the thing you are compiling it at ...
However, when given the --host option, in the generated "Makefile.conf", I saw the following outputs, which are very confusing:
NEW_KBUILD =
mainsrcdir = . MAINSRCDIR = /work/63/alsa/alsa-driver-1.0.22
CROSS_COMPILE ?= arm-linux- ARCH ?= ifdef NEW_KBUILD CC = $(CROSS_COMPILE)arm-linux-gcc
should be ... 'CC = $(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc', see below, others DTTO
CPP = $(CROSS_COMPILE)arm-linux-gcc -E export CROSS_COMPILE ARCH else AS = $(CROSS_COMPILE)as LD = $(CROSS_COMPILE)ld CC = $(CROSS_COMPILE)arm-linux-gcc CPP = $(CROSS_COMPILE)arm-linux-gcc -E AR = $(CROSS_COMPILE)ar MODFLAGS = -DMODULE=1 CFLAGS_KERNEL = GENKSYMS = /sbin/genksyms -k 0.0.0 endif
Obviously, the CC and CPP variables are not expected as "arm-linux-gcc". (There is one more $(CROSS_COMPILE)!)
yeah ... CROSS_COMPILE is set to the cross-toolchain prefix ... so in your case it should be 'CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-', that's all, nothing else. It's the same with linux kernel etc.
I overcome this problem by providing CC and CROSS_COMPILE variables with configure script: CC=gcc CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gcc ./configure --with-cross=arm-linux- --with-kernel=/home/working/bsp/Kernel/linux-2.6.19.2 --with-build=/home/working/bsp/Kernel/linux-2.6.19.2 --with-moddir=/home/working/bsp/tmp --with-debug=full --enable-dynamic-minors --with-cards=all
Then things become OK.
What's wrong with the "INSTALL" file?
Nothing ?
Another problem. Even if "--with-cards=all" is given, codes in soc/codecs, soc/imx, and many other subdirs are not built. It seems that the configure script sets some variables according to the kernel version and target platform and outputs into "toplevel.config". Is it possible to manually edit "toplevel.config" file (after configure process) to get soc/codecs, soc/imx codes compiled?
Yes, it builds what it can according to the setup of your kernel ... eg. you wont be able to use chips connected over the ac97 interface if there's no driver for the ac97 interface in your kernel etc.
