Hi all,
When cross compile elfutils for arm64 on x86_x64 platform, it fails as
follows when executing "make":
Making all in libcpu
CC i386_gendis.o
CC i386_lex.o
GEN i386_defs
GEN i386.mnemonics
CC i386_parse.o
CCLD i386_gendis
GEN i386_dis.h
/bin/bash: line 1: ./i386_gendis: cannot execute binary file: Exec
format error
make[2]: *** [Makefile:794: i386_dis.h] Error 126
rm i386_defs
make[1]: *** [Makefile:532: all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [Makefile:448: all] Error 2
I tried elfutils of latest version and elfutils-0.185, and the issue is
the same.
My compile steps is as follows, and please refer to attachment if you
want to know more detailed log:
autoreconf -i -f
./configure --build=x86_64-linux-gnu --host=aarch64-linux-gnu
CC=aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc CXX=aarch64-linux-gnu-g++

-L/usr/lib/gcc-cross/aarch64-linux-gnu/13/ -lz'
CFLAGS='-I/usr/lib/gcc-cross/aarch64-linux-gnu/13/include -fPIC -O2
-D_GNU_SOURCE' --disable-nls --disable-rpath --disable-libdebuginfod
--disable-debuginfod
make
Appreciate it if you have any comments or idea on it.
Thanks,
Xiang
