C Cross compile helloworld on a amd64 architecture for the RaspberryPI4 ie arm64.

What i tried :

Code:
export SYSROOT="/home/x/Dirs/arm64/sysroot"
curl   -LSs https://download.freebsd.org/ftp/releases/arm64/13.0-RELEASE/base.txz | tar Jxf - --include './usr/include/*' --include './usr/lib/*' --include './lib/*' -C ${SYSROOT}

Code:
export SYSROOT="/home/x/Dirs/arm64/sysroot"
export TARGET="arm64"
clang --target=${TARGET} --sysroot=${SYSROOT} -o foo foo.c

Results in :error: unable to create target: 'No available targets are compatible with triple "arm64"'

Should i use "arm-none-eabi" executables instead ? Which parameters to give ?

Or i need to install different flavors of llvm ?
 
Code:
export SYSROOT="/home/x/Dirs/arm64/sysroot" 
export TARGET="aarch64-unknown-freebsd"
clang --target=${TARGET} --sysroot=${SYSROOT} -o foo foo.c
error: unable to create target: 'No available targets are compatible with triple "aarch64-unknown-freebsd"'

Code:
cc -target aarch64-unknown-freebsd -o foo foo.c

error: unable to create target: 'No available targets are compatible with triple "aarch64-unknown-freebsd"'
1 error generated.
 
Code:
$uname -rms
FreeBSD 13.0-RELEASE-p6 amd64
$cc -target aarch64-unkown-freebsd -c -o b.o b.c
$file b.o
b.o: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, ARM aarch64, version 1 (FreeBSD), not stripped
 
Ooh I seemed to have in /etc/src.conf:
Code:
WITHOUT_LLVM_TARGET_AARCH64=yes
WITHOUT_LLVM_TARGET_ALL=yes
WITHOUT_LLVM_TARGET_ARM=yes
WITHOUT_LLVM_TARGET_BPF=yes
WITHOUT_LLVM_TARGET_MIPS=yes
WITHOUT_LLVM_TARGET_POWERPC=yes
WITHOUT_LLVM_TARGET_RISCV=yes
WITHOUT_LLVM_TARGET_SPARC=yes
Will put
Code:
WITH_LLVM_TARGET_ALL=yes
And rebuild world.

PS, this compiled on my PC :
Code:
export SYSROOT="/home/x/Dirs/arm64/sysroot"
export  TARGET="arm64"
clang13 --target=${TARGET} --sysroot=${SYSROOT} -c -o foo.o foo.c
 
cc -v -target aarch64-unkown-freebsd --sysroot=/something b.c should work
i don't have arm libs so can't test
 
Compiling works but linking did not seem to work:
Code:
export SYSROOT="/home/x/Dirs/arm64/sysroot"
export  TARGET="arm64"
rm foo
rm foo.o
clang13      --target=${TARGET} --sysroot=${SYSROOT} -c -o foo.o foo.c
clang13 -v   --target=${TARGET} --sysroot=${SYSROOT} foo.o

Produces:
Code:
HOST:x: /home/x/Dirs/arm64 >./compile_foo
rm: foo: No such file or directory
clang version 13.0.1
Target: arm64
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /usr/local/llvm13/bin
 "/usr/local/bin/gcc" -o a.out foo.o
/usr/local/bin/ld: aarch64 architecture of input file `foo.o' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output
/usr/local/bin/ld: final link failed: file in wrong format
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
clang-13: error: linker (via gcc) command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

This looks like the wrong linker is invoked.

And:
Code:
cc -v   --target=${TARGET} --sysroot=${SYSROOT} foo.o
Produces:

Maybe i should pass additional paramters to gcc11 ? Maybe stuff like rpath ?
Cross-compiling, very poorly documented...
Can you cross-compile&link only using gcc or only using clang ?
 
yes
cc -target aarch64-freebsd-unknwon --sysroot=/home/x/Dirs/arm64/sysroot bomb.c -o bomb
should work clang only
