RE: Cross compiling EPICS Base for ARM processor- Xilinx ARM Petalinux- Antelope Error

Don’t you want to do

 

EPICS_HOST_ARCH linux-x86_64

 

and in

 

base/configure/CONFIG_SITE

 

set

 

CROSS_COMPILER_TARGET_ARCHS=linux-arm

CROSS_COMPILER_HOST_ARCHS=linux-x86_64

Subject: Cross compiling EPICS Base for ARM processor- Xilinx ARM Petalinux- Antelope Error

 

Folks

I am attempting to build EPICS into Xilinx Zynq FPGA. I am using petalinux tools (the xilinx distro of linux) to build in EPICS base.

First I go through setting up the Xilinx petalinux compiler etc. All my tools work fine. Next I attempt to cross compile epics base using the Xilinx cross compiler. It works about half way then stops at antelope.

I do this:
setenv EPICS_HOST_ARCH linux-arm

I edit configure/CONFIG_SITE and add the following lines:
GNU_DIR = /localc/Xilinx/petalinux-v2015.2-final/tools/linux-i386/arm-xilinx-linux-gnueabi

CMPLR_PREFIX =  arm-xilinx-linux-gnueabi-

(I tried putting this into the os/CONFIG.blah blah files, but no success.)

I then run make in base.xx.xx.xx

The build mostly works, running the correct compiler. .
It stops at antelope/parse.c

Error below. Any ideas how to get past antelope?
