building iperf (2.0.5) cross compiling for ARM

trichet christophe
Expert 2025 points

Hello

i try to build iperf (https://iperf.fr/) for my ARM based platform :

i did the following :

export CROSS_COMPILE=/home/pengwyn/ti-sdk-am335x-evm-05.06.00.00/linux-devkit/bin/arm-arago-linux-gnueabi-gcc-
export CC=${CROSS_COMPILE}gcc
export CPP=${CROSS_COMPILE}cpp
export CXX=${CROSS_COMPILE}g++
export LD=${CROSS_COMPILE}ld
export AR=${CROSS_COMPILE}ar

export ac_cv_func_malloc_0_nonnull=yes

./configure --build=/home/pengwyn/ti-sdk-am335x-evm-05.06.00.00/linux-devkit/bin/arm-arago-linux-gnueabi-gcc- --host=arm-arago-linux

and i get the following errors :

pengwyn@pengwyn-desktop:~$ cd '/home/pengwyn/iperf-2.0.5'
pengwyn@pengwyn-desktop:~/iperf-2.0.5$ ./configure --build=/home/pengwyn/ti-sdk-am335x-evm-05.06.00.00/linux-devkit/bin/arm-arago-linux-gnueabi-gcc- --host=arm-arago-linux

Then make gives :

As anyone any idea of how to build iperf ?

Thank for any suggestion

Best regards

Thank

    Hello

    Now i get the following error (with the good export : export CROSS_COMPILE=/home/pengwyn/ti-sdk-am335x-evm-05.06.00.00/linux-devkit/bin/arm-arago-linux-gnueabi-)
    :

    Relocations in generic ELF (EM: 3)
    gnu_getopt.o: could not read symbols: File in wrong format

    any idea ?
