 Posted: Tue Apr 04, 2023 9:05 am Post subject: Crossdev for Raspberry Pi 4B |
 |
|
I use a Pi as home server. It is used for local rsync (including portage), web and ksmb server.
For the last year, I left it to compile alone over night, no distcc, no external aid, but recently I have to replicate it for the work and time matters.
So, I fired up crossdev and qemu on main PC and compiled almost all packagers and kernel on x86_64 PC. It worked quite well, except few and dev-perl/* and perl-core/* packages all together. Some of them (perl) does not compiled at all and some generate x86_64 code instead of aarch64.
I will post bellow the setup. Questions are:
1. What I am doing wrong ?
2. What can be improved ?
3. Is there a more elegant way to solve @diff set ?
There is the setup:
I have two make.conf, host for crossdev and qemu for systemd-nspawn

dev-perl/* perl-core/* dev-libs/cyrus-sasl mail-mta/postfix www-client/w3m www-servers/nginx app-text/po4a app-admin/needrestart are recompiled inside chroot qemu. It is not fast, but emerge -O1 -j20 helps and they are small packages, so time is 30% compared to pi.
sys-apps/i2c-tools and dev-python/RPi-GPIO are compiled on pi itself. Does not compiled correctly with none of crossdev or qemu.

Because crossdev is using host cmake, meson etc, those packages are not required by crossdev, only inside chroot, so, to have them, I made a set.

costel78,

Nothing. Some packages are cross compile hostile. The build systems do not cater for cross compiling.
Portage itself has got a lot better with cross compiling over the last few years.

File bugs. With patches if that's within your skill set.

Try --with-bdeps=y. Normally build time dependencies for cross compiling are only installed and used on the build host.
I think that --with-bdeps=y builds for the target too. Its not tested.
You may find my Pi4 BINHOST of interest.
Help yourself.
As you have a chroot qemu and a cross compile environment, you can use cross distcc from inside the chroot to the host (outside)
That avoids QEMU emulating gcc. Its described in this somewhat old wiki page Pi3 Build Root
Don't even think about using pump mode. Its no longer supported.

AFAIK perl does not lend itself to cross-compilation easily.
I vaguely recall something about it building code it needs to execute later on during its build process, so it requires the build host and target to be compatible.
You can try working around it by installing qemu-user together with binfmt, which would allow you to transparently run the "wrong" code on an emulator at a huge performance cost.
This might still result in a net gain if the emulated part does not make a big part of the whole job. Whether it makes the build succeed or not depends on implementation details in the build process, so no guarantees there, but I think it's worth giving it a shot.
In the meantime, it's probably a good idea to just launch building those particular things on rpi instead. Also, running emerge on rpi you should still be able to use extra horsepower via crossdev and distcc. |

szatox,
perl builds mini-perl then uses that to build the real thing.
Its much like gcc doing a bootstrap when the build host and target are the same but skipping the bootstrap otherwise.
Either the perl build system or the ebuild does not do that, so cross compiling fails by design.

Thank you all!, for your time.
@NeddySeagoon
When I asked What I am doing wrong, I referred to setup, scripts, as a whole. I am sorry, not a native English speaker.
I choose to use default/linux/arm64/23.0/systemd profile because it seems that fewer packages fail with cross compile.
Will file a bug regarding dev-perl and perl-core packages using crossdev.
Also, will use distcc between host and qemu - great ideea  . Yes, pump mode didn't work well, even when it was supported, if I recall correctly.
--with-bdeps=y make no difference. It is already in EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS.
@szatox
dev-lang/perl, itself, it is compiling fine, but without lto, using crossdev. dev-perl and perl-core packages are problematic. Already using qemu to compile them.
Compiling them in parallel on qemu is faster than installing resulted binary packages on Pi  .
The main reason I avoid to compile on pi itself is because the only one available to development is my personal Pi, the others (nine pieces) are required on sites, as production systems. Availability is still a problem with those.
Recompiling the whole system (lto and graphite flags were added gradually) and kernel is done in under one hour. gcc itself take 5 hours on pi. Installing them (binary packages) on Pi, takes about 90 minutes, 30 minutes more. I am using an ssd with Argon One M.2 case. Also, on sites, ssd will be used, but with different, cheaper, cases.

costel78,
My answer is not changed. Your setup is much the same as mine before I got an arm64 server.
For the bdeps and cross compiling, make a set with the missing packages, say at /usr/<tuple>/etc/portage/sets/bdeps
Unfortunately, you need to maintain it by hand.
Its a list of bdeps that you want to be installed into the target root.
Build the contents of the set using cross emerge @bdeps ... much like @world. It will be included in your @world set unless you use --oneshot.
You will find more expertise on Libera IRC in #gentoo-arm
The channel requires you to be registered to speak.
Someone there may know how to make portage spit out a list of built time dependencies.

I filled a bug and keep hoping regarding dev-perl/* packages.
Bug #903769
Keeping @diff set updated is not hard. You are right, maybe bdeps name is more apropiate.
I have two variants:
1. On Pi, update script is:
| Code: | #!/bin/bash
emerge -auvDN -kG world
emerge -auvDN world
emerge -av @preserved-rebuild
etc-update
emerge --deep --depclean -a
echo "Repornesc squashmount"
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl restart squashmount
/root/tools/cron.sh
emaint --fix all |
If something was missed on emerge -auvDN -kG world it will show up on emerge -auvDN world and I will know where to put that package(s).
2. Start with a empty Pi binpkgs folder and run recompile script. After that run | Code: | | ROOT=/usr/aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu/ aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu-emerge -pve world | grep ebuild |
This will include dev-libs/cyrus-sasl mail-mta/postfix www-client/w3m www-servers/nginx sys-apps/i2c-tools dev-python/RPi-GPIO app-text/po4a app-admin/needrestart, but this is not a problem.
Thank you!

Thank you for your suggestion, but, here, does not apply.
perl-cleaner is recommended to be used when dev-lang/perl is updated.
The worst thing here with dev-perl and perl-core packages is that many of them are compiling fine, but for host arch (x86-64) not for Pi - arm64.

That sounds more like a cross compile issue.
Or your not chrooting in properly.
'perl-cleaner is recommended', does NOT mean it can not be used.
It is a great tool for checking/fixing perl issues.
I always run it on a fresh install to make sure portage works right.
But that's me, lol. |

It is definitely a cross compile issue.
I run perl-cleaner during initial phase, because the crossdev is on ~arm64, so perl was upgraded.
The thing is that I was able to fully run it only on qemu chroot. It wasn't worked to the end using aarch64 emerge wrapper, due to compilations issues.
