Hello Francis,

You are respining the patches too fast, without answering some of the
questions, and therefore there's still an issue, see below.

I suppose that libsbi.a contains code cross-compiled for RISC-V, so
installing it in $(HOST_DIR) is wrong in this case. It should go in
$(STAGING_DIR).

The second question, which I asked in my review of your v4 is whether
this library is meant to be linked into bare-metal code (which is what
I would expect for something related to firmware) or to Linux
user-space applications. In the latter case, installing to
$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/lib is the right thing to do. In the former case
however, it should probably be installed elsewhere, maybe
$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/share/opensbi (but I'm not a FHS expert).

Also, when -D is used, the destination path should include the filename.

Best regards,

Thomas
