Matt Jordan closed ASTERISK-18961.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Suspended

I'm closing this out as "Suspended."
# Digium does not provide support for cross-compiling.
# The community as a whole (including Digium) does not have a patch for this issue.

If you're cross-compiling Asterisk, you're taking on a certain amount of responsibility. And if you have a problem compiling Asterisk in such an environment and run into a problem, providing a patch to fix the issues for that environment is the only way anyone will be able to fix these kinds of problems. The project is not able to obtain every toolchain ever created and reproduce or fix these kinds of bugs independently.

> I tried to cross-compile the newest stable Asterisk (1.8.7.1) for an armv6l. I used the following toolchain (from http://www.mikrocontroller.net/topic/240238):
> {noformat}
> $ sudo mkdir /opt/eldk42
> $ wget http://ftp.denx.de/pub/eldk/4.2/arm-linux-x86/iso/arm-2008-11-24.iso
> $ sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop -o exec arm-2008-11-24.iso /mnt
> $ cd /mnt
> $ sudo ./install -d /opt/eldk42/ armVFP
> {noformat}
> I set the needed variables:
> {noformat}
> $ export ARCH=armVFP
> $ export CROSS_COMPILE=armVFP-linux-
> $ export CC=armVFP-linux-gcc
> $ export PATH=$PATH:/opt/eldk42/usr/bin:/opt/eldk42/bin
> $ export ROOT=/opt/eldk42/armVFP/
> {noformat}
> I configured asterisk for compilation:
> {noformat}
> $ ./configure --host=arm --disable-xmldoc
> {noformat}
> Then I ran make:
> {noformat}
> $ make
> {noformat}
> Finally I got this error:
> {noformat}
