Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH 1/3] package/gnu-efi: disable on ARM and AArch64 big-endian
Date: Sun, 18 Aug 2024 00:02:04 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240817220208.929073-1-thomas.petazzoni@bootlin.com> (raw)

Since the bump of gnu-efi to version 3.0.17 in Buildroot commit
fa9893ad8fb94278d7e8b80cd3e795469223faf0, the build of gnu-efi fails
on ARM big endian and AArch64 big endian.

Indeed, since that bump, gnu-efi builds some "apps", using a special
linker file part of gnu-efi that explicitly sets the architecture:

OUTPUT_FORMAT("elf32-littlearm", "elf32-littlearm", "elf32-littlearm")

OUTPUT_FORMAT("elf64-littleaarch64", "elf64-littleaarch64", "elf64-littleaarch64")

Due to this, big endian builds are now failing:

armeb-buildroot-linux-gnueabi-ld: ../gnuefi/crt0-efi-arm.o: compiled for a big endian system and target is little endian
armeb-buildroot-linux-gnueabi-ld: failed to merge target specific data of file ../gnuefi/crt0-efi-arm.o

Since we are not really interested in supporting gnu-efi on ARM big
endian and AArch64 big endian and it is not supported upstream, let's
disabled on those architectures.

Fixes:

  http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/4d385d6759346e19664d0bded1e419f004f82b47/ (ARM big endian)
  http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/b6df43408ca4cd469962c96d49d9ac7935b6dbe9/ (AArch64 big endian)
