Hi all, Recently I downloaded alsa-driver 1.0.22 and tried to build for i.MX27 platform. The "INSTALL" file enclosed in this release requires "--with-cross=arm-linux-" configuration option to cross-compile alsa driver for this ARM platform. Here is my build process #./configure --with-cross=arm-linux- --with-kernel=/home/working/bsp/Kernel/linux-2.6.19.2 --with-build=/home/working/bsp/ Kernel/linux-2.6.19.2 --with-moddir=/home/working/bsp/tmp --with-debug=full --enable-dynamic-minors --with-cards=all checking for gcc... arm-linux-gcc checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... configure: error: cannot run C compiled programs. If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'. See `config.log' for more details. It seems that "--host=arm-linux" should be provided to configure script. However, when given the --host option, in the generated "Makefile.conf", I saw the following outputs, which are very confusing: NEW_KBUILD = mainsrcdir = . MAINSRCDIR = /work/63/alsa/alsa-driver-1.0.22 CROSS_COMPILE ?= arm-linux- ARCH ?= ifdef NEW_KBUILD CC = $(CROSS_COMPILE)arm-linux-gcc CPP = $(CROSS_COMPILE)arm-linux-gcc -E export CROSS_COMPILE ARCH else AS = $(CROSS_COMPILE)as LD = $(CROSS_COMPILE)ld CC = $(CROSS_COMPILE)arm-linux-gcc CPP = $(CROSS_COMPILE)arm-linux-gcc -E AR = $(CROSS_COMPILE)ar MODFLAGS = -DMODULE=1 CFLAGS_KERNEL = GENKSYMS = /sbin/genksyms -k 0.0.0 endif Obviously, the CC and CPP variables are not expected as "arm-linux-gcc". (There is one more $(CROSS_COMPILE)!) I overcome this problem by providing CC and CROSS_COMPILE variables with configure script: CC=gcc CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gcc ./configure --with-cross=arm-linux- --with-kernel=/home/working/bsp/Kernel/linux-2.6.19.2 --with-build=/home/working/bsp/Kernel/linux-2.6.19.2 --with-moddir=/home/working/bsp/tmp --with-debug=full --enable-dynamic-minors --with-cards=all Then things become OK. What's wrong with the "INSTALL" file? Another problem. Even if "--with-cards=all" is given, codes in soc/codecs, soc/imx, and many other subdirs are not built. It seems that the configure script sets some variables according to the kernel version and target platform and outputs into "toplevel.config". Is it possible to manually edit "toplevel.config" file (after configure process) to force soc/codecs, soc/imx codes compiled?
