AM335x Linux SDK cross-compilation with soft float

azeem bukhari

hi,

how could i cross compile am335evm sdk using linaro soft float eabi instead of eabihf.

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Processor_SDK_Building_The_SDK

the link above give enough information for compiling tisdk with eabihf tool chain. But i need to use the linaro soft float tool chain.

How can i proceed?

I will ask the software team to comment if this is possible at all.

Hi,

You could change the CC variable when sourcing the environment or running env setup -> conf/setenv.

Or manually export PATH=<path_to_cross_compil> & export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-eabi- /*or whatever toolchain you need*/

NOTE: Have in mind that the sources are tested only with the toolchain provided in the SDK and the wiki page you refer. If you use another toolchain, you may need to modify some of the sources and also we cannot guarantee that the file system will work as expected on the board.

Best Regards,
Yordan
