QT Cross Compile

1. 建立git仓库进行跟踪

因为在编译的时候会对QT 进行部分的代码修改,建立仓库可以很好的跟踪修改记录

.gitignore 会把一些不需要的中间文件不进行跟踪

git init
git add *
vim .gitignore
git add .gitignore
git commit -m "init"

cat .gitignore
*.a
*.asn1.[ch]
*.bin
*.bz2
*.dwo
*.elf
*.gcno
*.gz
*.i
*.ko
*.lex.c
*.ll
*.lst
*.lz4
*.lzma
*.lzo
*.o
*.o.*
*.s
*.so
*.so.dbg

2. 配置编译工具链

工具链的配置建议使用qt提供的qmake机制进行配置,配置文件在mkspecs/qws目录下,通过两个文件完成配置

cd mkspecs/qws/
cp -r linux-arm-gnueabi-g++ linux-riscv-gnueabi-g++
cd linux-riscv-gnu-g++/

2.1. qplatformdefs.h

  • QT 代码本身兼容32位和64位,因此对于64位CPU,不需要进行过多的设置
  • qplatformdefs进行一些基础的数据变量的定义,如type,ipc等,和linux平台的关联性更强,和arm riscv 的关联性没有
cat qplatformdefs.h
#include "../../linux-g++-64/qplatformdefs.h"

cat ../../linux-g++-64/qplatformdefs.h
#include "../linux-g++/qplatformdefs.h"

2.2. qmake.conf

  • qmake 配置了交叉编译的工具链信息,是交叉编译的主要
  • qmake 并没有指定工具链的路径,因此需要编译前把路径手工加入到PATH环境变量
  • export PATH=/xxx/d211/bin/:$PATH
  • 包含工具参数的定义:QMAKE_COPY = cp -f
  • qws.conf中定义基础功能:QT += core gui network
#
# qmake configuration for building with arm-none-linux-gnueabi-g++
#

include(../../common/linux.conf)
include(../../common/gcc-base-unix.conf)
include(../../common/g++-unix.conf)
include(../../common/qws.conf)

# modifications to g++.conf
QMAKE_CC = riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc
QMAKE_CXX = riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-g++
QMAKE_LINK = riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-g++
QMAKE_LINK_SHLIB = riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-g++

# modifications to linux.conf
QMAKE_AR = riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-ar cqs
QMAKE_OBJCOPY = riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-objcopy
QMAKE_STRIP = riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-strip

load(qt_config)

2.3. 环境变量

和传统的交叉编译不同,QT 采用的是QMake进行系统编译,编译方案是先进行一些Host 的工具编译(采用CC),再进行交叉编译(采用QMAKE_CC),因此在设置环境变量时, 只可以添加交叉编译工具链到PATH,设置QMAKE_CC, 绝对不能设置CC的传统的交叉编译变量,否则出现莫名的问题。

如果需要directfb的支持,则需要明确指定一下directfb的路径,导如下两个环境变量

export QT_CFLAGS_DIRECTFB="-I/xxx/install/include/directfb/"
export QT_LIBS_DIRECTFB="-L/xxx/install/lib -ldirectfb -lfusion -ldirect -lpthread -lz"

3. 编译

3.1. configure

  • 用最简单的编译方式编译,大部分功能先disable,如果需要再打开
  • 通过-xplatform qws/linux-arm-gnueabi-g++指定交叉编译工具链
  • configure 完成后会生成Makefile
  • make distclean命令无效,无法清除生成的Makefile
./configure -opensource -confirm-license -xplatform qws/linux-riscv-gnueabi-g++ \
-prefix /xxx/install -plugin-gfx-directfb -no-qt3support \
-nomake demos -nomake examples -no-glib -depths 8,16,32 -qt-gfx-linuxfb -no-gfx-transformed \

-no-xinerama -no-cups -no-nis -no-separate-debug-info -fast -no-rpath

3.2. swpb汇编

我们的工具链没有提供swpb汇编,需要直接使用C语言的交换方式完成

../../include/QtCore/../../src/corelib/arch/qatomic_armv5.h:128: Error: unrecognized opcode `swpb a3,a4,[s0]'

3.3. gnu兼容

工具链版本的不同,会使某些C++ code 的兼容性会有差异,需要指定gnu++98

4. Directfb 集成

configure会优先使用pkg_config, directfb-config 两个工具进行directfb的路径获取,会很容易的受到系统directfb的影响, 因此此处最简单的办法的绕开系统的变量,直接设置QT_CFLAGS_DIRECTFB 和QT_LIBS_DIRECTFB的变量值

The DirectFB screen driver functionality test failed!

5. config.test

config.tests 是configure的测试目录,其中有不少简单的verify示例,以directfb为例

config.tests/qws/directfb
directfb.cpp directfb.o directfb.pro Makefile

cat Makefile
CC = riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc
CXX = riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-g++
DEFINES =
CFLAGS = -pipe -O2 -Wall -W $(DEFINES)
CXXFLAGS = -pipe -std=gnu++98 -D_REENTRANT -O2 -Wall -W $(DEFINES)
INCPATH = -I../../../mkspecs/qws/linux-riscv-gnueabi-g++ -I. -I/usr/include/directfb
LINK = riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-g++
LFLAGS = -Wl,-O1
LIBS = $(SUBLIBS) -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -ldirectfb -lfusion -ldirect -lpthread
AR = riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-ar cqs
  • 如果某一test没有过,可以通过查看Makefile 确认相关参数是否正确,如上的include参数不正确
  • 如果参数正确,可以直接进入该目录执行make命令确认出错原因
  • 最初编译directfb是动态link zlib,因此需要明确link zlib,第一次仿照上面的LIBS设置,则在编译的时候报告zlib 的错误
