Cross compiling issues

[Brian Beuken]

I recently converted a project from on target build on the Raspberry, to local build on the PC to run on the Raspberry. I wanted it to be an example of how to use cross compilation.
But though I can get the project to build it falls down at the debug giving this error.

I’m a bit lost, and google isn’t really finding any answer to this. Can you help?

hmmm the formatting is very strange, sorry can’t seem to fix it

the gist of it is

CXXABI_1.3.9  not found

GLIBCXX_3.4.21  not found

This only appears on a large project, a small test project doesn’t give any issues so I assume its looking for a couple of libs, but I don’t know how to set up VisualGDB to point to them?

Hi

no my support ends on 16/03/2019 its registered in my university’s name under our purchase mananager, William van Nieuwburg, NHTV

Hi,

Thanks for confirming your license status. We have linked your forum account to the license purchased by NHTV.

The error you are experiencing happens because your program was linked against a version of the glibc library that is incompatible with the actual library installed on the device. Please double-check that you are using a version of the cross-toolchain that is compatible with your SD card image. If you have installed any updated on your target device, please synchronize the toolchain’s sysroot with it (the new VisualGDB 5.4 Beta 2 uses a much faster mechanism for synchronizing the sysroot).

[Brian Beuken]

thanks for fixing that status mix up,

I did do a “reccomended” sysroot sync when I set up the project, and also tried a full sysroot sync when I first encountered the issue (indeed I realised it was some kind of mislink), so my sysroot current has a full copy of my image, and still I get the issue.

Am I missing any other VisualGDB cross compile settings I should have?

Hi,

The issue is not related to any VisualGDB settings – it is 100% between the toolchain and the target. Please let us know which toolchain and what SD card image you are using.

[Brian Beuken]

Im using the Raspberry Pi toolchain (latest version it seems) and a Jessie (with updates from stretch) image of Raspbian.

 

[Brian Beuken]

Im also using VisualGDB 5.3R8

with Raspberry Toolchain GCC 6.3.0: GDB 7.12   6.3.0/7.12/r3

I did a new sysroot sync, and noticed this error throwing up a lot

Cannot create c:\SysGCC\raspberry\arm-linux-gnueabihf\sysroot/usr/lib\node_modules\node-red\node_modules\serialport\node_modules\node-pre-gyp\node_modules\npmlog\node_modules\gauge\node_modules\string-width\node_modules\is-fullwidth-code-point\node_modules\number-is-nan\package.json: The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters.

Thats a bit of a problem, I think? Especially since I am unable to edit the sysroot location to a shorter name?

Hi,

Please try synchronizing the toolchain using VisualGDB 5.4 Beta 2. It includes an optimized file transfer engine that works around known problems with sysroot synchronization.

[Brian Beuken]

ok I updated to 5.4 and also changed to a clean Raspberry 3B+ with a new version of Stretch, so everything is shiny and new.

1st issue, I had to install gdbserver onto the pi, it never needed it when I used it as the on target compile but ok.

 

I did a full resync with the new version of sysroot sync which is much faster, well done on speeding that up

 

But Im afraid now I can’t build my project as I get this error.

 

1> c:/sysgcc/raspberry/bin/../arm-linux-gnueabihf/sysroot/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libm.so: file not recognized: File truncated
1>collect2.exe : error : ld returned 1 exit status
1> make: *** [Debug/PiGauntlet] Error 1

Hi,

This looks like the c:/sysgcc/raspberry/bin/../arm-linux-gnueabihf/sysroot/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libm.so file was not synchronized properly. It could be a VisualGDB bug, or might be caused by something else.

Please try deleting all subdirectories in the toolchain’s sysroot directory except for etc, then resynchronize it again.

If the problem persists, please try checking whether libm.so file is a symlink (note the backslash instead of forward slashes):

dir c:\sysgcc\raspberry\bin\..\arm-linux-gnueabihf\sysroot\usr\lib\arm-linux-gnueabihf\libm.so

If it is a symlink, please check if the target file pointed by the symlink physically exists and contains a valid ELF signature. Please also check any warnings shown during sysroot synchronization. E.g. insufficient disk space or corrupt file system might prevent some files from being synchronized.

[Brian Beuken]

I’ll have to leave this for a few days, as I need to focus on the on target builds that are working, but I will let you know how I get on with these steps.
