Cross compile DPDK for ARM64

============================

Cross compiling DPDK for ARM64
|

==============================
|

This chapter describes how to cross compile DPDK for ARM64 from x86 build hosts.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
Whilst it is recommended to natively build DPDK on ARM64 (just
|
||||
like with x86), it is also possible to cross-build DPDK for ARM64. An
|
||||
ARM64 cross compile GNU toolchain is used for this.
|
||||
like with x86), it is also possible to cross compile DPDK for ARM64.
|
||||
An ARM64 cross compiler GNU toolchain or an LLVM/clang toolchain
|
||||
may be used for cross-compilation.
|
||||
|
||||
Obtain the cross tool chain
|
||||
---------------------------
|

The latest cross compile tool chain can be downloaded from:
|

https://developer.arm.com/open-source/gnu-toolchain/gnu-a/downloads.
|
||||
|
||||
It is always recommended to check and get the latest compiler tool from the page and use
|
||||
it to generate better code. As of this writing 8.3-2019.03 is the newest, the following
|
||||
description is an example of this version.

Meson prerequisites

|

To install it in Ubuntu::
|

sudo apt install pkg-config-aarch64-linux-gnu

Cross Compiling DPDK
|
||||
--------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Meson depends on pkgconfig to find the dependencies.
|
||||
The package ``pkg-config-aarch64-linux-gnu`` is required for aarch64.
|
||||
To install it in Ubuntu::
|
||||
|
||||
sudo apt-get install pkg-config-aarch64-linux-gnu
|
||||
Cross Compiling DPDK with GNU toolchain using Meson
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
To cross-compile DPDK on a desired target machine we can use the following
|
||||
command::
|
||||
|
||||
meson cross-build --cross-file <target_machine_configuration>
|
||||
ninja -C cross-build
|
||||
meson cross-build --cross-file <target_machine_configuration>
|
||||
ninja -C cross-build
|
||||
|
||||
For example if the target machine is arm64 we can use the following
|
||||
For example if the target machine is aarch64 we can use the following
|
||||
command::
|
||||
|
||||
meson arm64-build --cross-file config/arm/arm64_armv8_linux_gcc
|
||||
ninja -C arm64-build
|
||||
meson aarch64-build-gcc --cross-file config/arm/arm64_armv8_linux_gcc
|
||||
ninja -C aarch64-build-gcc
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
LLVM/Clang toolchain
|
||||
--------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Obtain the cross tool chain
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
The latest LLVM/Clang cross compiler toolchain can be downloaded from:
|
||||
https://developer.arm.com/tools-and-software/open-source-software/developer-tools/llvm-toolchain.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
# Ubuntu binaries
|
||||
wget https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/releases/download/llvmorg-10.0.0/clang+llvm-10.0.0-x86_64-linux-gnu-ubuntu-18.04.tar.xz
|
||||
|
||||
The LLVM/Clang toolchain does not implement the standard c library.
|
||||
The GNU toolchain ships an implementation we can use.
|
||||
Refer to obtain_GNU_toolchain_ to get the GNU toolchain.
|
||||
|
||||
Unzip and add into the PATH
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
tar -xvf clang+llvm-10.0.0-x86_64-linux-gnu-ubuntu-18.04.tar.xz

Cross Compiling DPDK with LLVM/Clang toolchain using Meson
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
To use the NUMA library follow the same steps as for
|
||||
augment_the_gnu_toolchain_with_numa_support_.
|
||||
|
||||
The paths to GNU stdlib must be specified in a cross file.
|
||||
Augmenting the default cross-file's ``c_args`` and ``c_link_args``
|
||||
``config/arm/arm64_armv8_linux_clang_ubuntu1804`` would look like this:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
...
|
||||
c_args = ['-target', 'aarch64-linux-gnu', '--sysroot', '<cross_install_dir>/gcc-arm-9.2-2019.12-x86_64-aarch64-none-linux-gnu/aarch64-none-linux-gnu/libc']
|
||||
c_link_args = ['-target', 'aarch64-linux-gnu', '-fuse-ld=lld', '--sysroot', '<cross_install_dir>/gcc-arm-9.2-2019.12-x86_64-aarch64-none-linux-gnu/aarch64-none-linux-gnu/libc', '--gcc-toolchain=<cross_install_dir>/gcc-arm-9.2-2019.12-x86_64-aarch64-none-linux-gnu']
|
||||
|
||||
Assuming the file with augmented ``c_args`` and ``c_link_args``
|
||||
is named ``arm64_armv8_linux_clang``,
|
||||
use the following command to cross-compile DPDK for the target machine::
|
||||
|
||||
meson aarch64-build-clang --cross-file config/arm/arm64_armv8_linux_clang
|
||||
ninja -C aarch64-build-clang
|
||||
|
||||
Cross Compiling DPDK with LLVM/Clang toolchain using Meson on Ubuntu 18.04
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
On most popular Linux distribution it is not necessary to download
|
||||
the toolchains, but rather use the packages provided by said distributions.
|
||||
On Ubuntu 18.04, these packages are needed:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
sudo apt-get install pkg-config-aarch64-linux-gnu clang llvm llvm-dev lld
|
||||
libc6-dev-arm64-cross libatomic1-arm64-cross libgcc-8-dev-arm64-cross
|
||||
|
||||
Use the following command to cross-compile DPDK for the target machine::
|
||||
|
||||
meson aarch64-build-clang --cross-file config/arm/arm64_armv8_linux_clang_ubuntu1804
|
||||
ninja -C aarch64-build-clang

||||
