Building LibreELEC is mainly done on x86_64 hosts and not on the target devices.

I also think some of the rkbin tools used to generate bootloader/u-boot blobs only exists for x86_64.

building LibreELEC is *only* done x86_64 hosts

I came to the same conclusion after I solved the compilation problems of openssl-1.0.2p. The compilation process found the next problems with the compilation of the Python 2.7 package. I just removed all of LibreELEC from my RockPro64 SBC.

As arm processors are becoming more and more powerful, I believe that eventually LibreELEC will have to offer support for arm processors as building host for their already very impressive building system. Whether or not having a HOST_TARGET variable will suffice, I do not known. I do know that it will have to be a separate and well organized project, as the dangers of breaking the existing building system are huge.

For me, this subject is closed for the time being.

I started experimenting with compiling LibreELEC for my RockPro64 device. All went well using VirtualBox with Linux on my Win10 PC. This time I tried to compile LibreELEC on my RockPro64 SBC. Unfortunately that fails during the compilation of openssl-1.0.2p with the error:

gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-m64'

I started the make process with the following instruction:

rock64@rockpro64:~/LibreELEC.tv$ PROJECT=Rockchip DEVICE=RK3399 ARCH=arm UBOOT_SYSTEM=rockpro64 make image

To give some extra context I copied the last couple of lines from the compilation process:

Code

I looked for solutions on Google, but none of the suggestions were helpful for solving this LibreELEC compilation problem. I can' t believe I am the first one to try to compile LibreELEC on a RK3399 SBC so I hope there is someone out here who can give me the right directions to solve this problem.

TIA, Baderks

Quote from CvH

I have changed "a lot" again to get a proper fix, could you pls test i again and post an dmesg | paste

Generic.x86_64-7.95.1-fix-ir-final

this is the final version and getting into Beta2 (if it works), would be nice if someone could verify that it works

Thanks for all the great work. So far no problems: SUiN
