Subject: Cross-compile for ARM
Date: Thu, 28 Jul 2011 20:53:40 +0200

I was trying to cross-compile emacs for ARM (don't ask me why).
But got an error during 'make' (see output below FIRST RUN).

So it's for sure 'test-distrub' was build for ARM, while it is trying to run on i686.

On the second run (just, ran 'make again), I got a similar error on 'prefix-args'.
But for some reason the 'test-distrub' error is gone (probably because 'make' thinks it is already finished.

So I have to compile them with the host compiler (i686).
But I'm not sure how to implement this properly.


Also I would like to get rid of the warning: "LIB_GCC" redefined


Regards,
Toon

The emacs sources are not prepared for cross compilation.

So the question is:
Is it a 'feature' or is it a bug?

It's not a feature, but it's not a bug we find very important to fix.
IOW I'd be happy to accept patches which make cross-compiling easier,
but I won't write them myself and I would only accept them if they're
clean enough.

This said, I do remember someone posting on this list about a similar
issue and making actual progress in this direction.  And if you want to
try it, here are some things I know will need to be solved:
- We build a few programs used only during compilation: prefix-args,
  make-docfile, probably a few more (can't remember test-distrub, but
  if we build such a thing, then it's most likely in the set as well).
  You'll have to change the Makefile to compile those for the host
  rather than for the target.
- The Elisp files in lisp and leim need to be compiled by Emacs, so the
  src/bootstrap-emacs should be built for the host rather than for
  the target.
- You'll either want to build without dumping (i.e. set CANNOT_DUMP), or
  you'll want to split the dump step since it needs to be run on the
  target (but in either case you can do the dump for src/bootstrap-emacs
  since that runs on the host).  Builds using CANNOT_DUMP tend to have
  various misfeatures because this is basically never used and hence
  doesn't get much/any testing.

Maybe the easiest way to approach the problem is to first do a normal
build on the host (which builds src/bootstrap-emacs and compiles all the
Elisp files), then "rm src/*.o", reconfigure for the target and compile
src/temacs (and maybe afterwards do the `dump' on the target).

BTW, the trunk should be a bit better now than the 23.x release in terms
of building.

prefix-args has been removed from the trunk.

We should just remove test-distrib.c ASAP, it doesn't seem that useful anymore.

"temacs" now runs as expected, it should work better than setting
CANNOT_DUMP.
It starts up a bit slower, but it is just as usable as a dumped emacs
after that.

That was 12 years ago.  I'm therefore reaching out to ask if this bug is
still relevant, or if it has since been fixed?

If I don't hear back from you within a couple of months, Ill just assume
that this has been fixed and close this bug.

Thanks in advance.

The Android port is routinely cross-compiled for ARM systems, so despite
its using a different build procedure from the rest of our builds, no
code except dumping should remain that prevents cross-compiling Emacs.

The OP's requirements have also been satisified by the Android port,
which is supposed to support Chromebooks.
