U-Boot build error (Tinkerboard 2S)

[serene 0]

Hi,

I got multiple errors when trying to build the U-Boot for TinkerBoard2.

I downloaded rkbin, and then execute "make.sh tinker2"

linaro@linaro-alip:~/u-boot$ ./make.sh tinker2
## make tinker2_defconfig -j12
arch/../configs/tinker2_defconfig:140:warning: override: reassigning to symbol OF_LIBFDT_OVERLAY
#
# configuration written to .config
#
ERROR: No toolchain: ../prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/aarch64/gcc-linaro-6.3.1-2017.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin

I then downloaded the toolchain, put it in the location mentioned on the error above, then I got these multiple errors:

linaro@linaro-alip:~/u-boot$ ./make.sh tinker2
## make tinker2_defconfig -j12
arch/../configs/tinker2_defconfig:140:warning: override: reassigning to symbol OF_LIBFDT_OVERLAY

hello @serene, 

what's the build environment? you'll need x86_64 environment in order to build gcc-linaro-6.3.1-2017.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu

use the command lscpu and you will see the architecture: x86_64C

Architecture:                    x86_64 CPU op-mode(s):                  32-bit, 64-bit

Thanks @tooz

I thought the script compiles natively, I ran it on aarch64.

I successfully built it on x86_64 (Ubuntu PC).

Hi serene:

Can you try the SOP?
Let me know if you have any questions

[Tinker2 Source Download]
1)  u-boot Code => git clone https://github.com/TinkerBoard2/u-boot.git
2)  GCC            =>  wget http://releases.linaro.org/components/toolchain/binaries/6.3-2017.05/aarch64-linux-gnu/gcc-linaro-6.3.1-2017.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu.tar.xz
3)  tar -Jxvf gcc-linaro-6.3.1-2017.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu.tar.xz -C ~

[Tinker2 u-boot]
1)  cd u-boot
2)  make tinker2_defconfig
3)  make CROSS_COMPILE=~/gcc-linaro-6.3.1-2017.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu- all --jobs=80
4)  ./tools/loaderimage --pack --uboot u-boot.bin uboot.img 0x00200000
5)  compile finish，copy u-boot/uboot.img to Tinker2
6)  dd if=uboot.img of=/dev/mmcblk1p1 (excute in tinker2)

Thank you.
Joe
