I'm trying to build kodi on Linux and I wish to target aarch64. I'm using Ubuntu 22.10 on amd64.

How do I specify using aarch64? Do I need to also target a specific gcc lib that's on the target device?

cmake ../kodi -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local -DCORE_PLATFORM_NAME=wayland -DAPP_RENDER_SYSTEM=gl -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-march=armv8-a

see https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/tree/master/tools/depends

you'll need a aarch64-cross toolchain (e.g. gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu) and related kernel headers

The simplest way I've found to cross compile to other CPU variants (such as Pi) is a qemu chroot on a host system (not the target system).

Also works great for modifying a rootfs.

A overall general example of what I mean here: https://a-delacruz.github.io/ubuntu/rpi3...ystem.html

Adjust as needed, it's just an example.

That will give you a complete shell for your target system which you can run on your host system. When finished, image it, pack it, write it to sd/usb, whatever you desire.

Thanks wsnipex!

With shared libraries such as liblzo2.so (and presumably the same will apply to libz.so, libpng.so, libgif.so and libjpeg.so etc.)

Does it compile these into a static kodi bin or do they need to exist on the target device? (They do not at present).

I can get my system to find these libraries on the compile device (x86_64) by doing this:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture arm64

sudo touch /etc/apt/sources.list.d/arm-cross-compile-sources.list
deb [arch=arm64] http://ports.ubuntu.com/ kinetic main restricted
deb [arch=arm64] http://ports.ubuntu.com/ kinetic-updates main restricted
deb [arch=arm64] http://ports.ubuntu.com/ kinetic universe
deb [arch=arm64] http://ports.ubuntu.com/ kinetic-updates universe
deb [arch=arm64] http://ports.ubuntu.com/ kinetic multiverse
deb [arch=arm64] http://ports.ubuntu.com/ kinetic-updates multiverse
deb [arch=arm64] http://ports.ubuntu.com/ kinetic-backports main restricted universe multiverse

sudo apt-get install liblzo2-dev:arm64
etc.

I'm a bit stuck in that it still insists on checking /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ alsoi it cant find Python3_LIBRARY:

you have to build the depends first. See the link I gave you
after depends are built successfully, you can use this https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/Nexus/...s/Makefile to configure kodi for aarch64 cross compilation.
e.g. from the kodi source root dir:
make -c tools/depends/target/cmakebuildsys
cd build; make -j8

Thanks. I've tried:

cd tools/depends
./bootstrap
./configure --with-toolchain=/usr --prefix=/home/xbmc/opt/xbmc-deps --host=aarch64-linux-gnu --with-rendersystem=gles

For toolchain I've tried /usr /usr/bin and --with-toolchain=/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu

Why is it looking for cmake here? cmake is in:

Prefix is a required path.

I've added a quick symlink for cmake so I can continue. I'm currently stuck here - missing INTL_LIBRARY.

I have installed gettext:arm64 which adds:

/usr/aarch64-linux-gnu/include/libintl.h
/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/preloadable_libintl.so

did you actually _compile_ depends? You have to run make after configure.....

No that wasn't mentioned anywhere in the docs... Smile

I assumed make was run in the kodi root. Trying it now.. So have I wasted the last few hours!!

It would be good to know what it is actually compiling in the tools/depends!!

Ends with an error after lots of compilation

The main issue I'm stuck on right now is below. I can try running waf configure myself, but I have no idea what options I am supposed to use??

If I do run waf configure and continue to run tools/depends/make I get the below. Of course I don't know if I ran waf configure correctly.

you need to find the actual error that causes the build to fail. It might be samba, but could be some dependency of it.
Run: make -c target VERBOSE=1 # (NO -j) and take note of the error when it fails

Hi wsnipex

Ignoring the fact that I run waf configure myself and continue the build:

cd tools/depend
make VERBOSE=1

I am using going to start afresh with a new git clone and see if I can try again.

UPDATE fresh checkout worked... now on to compiling kodi itself.
