    All,
    I am following the well-known ELGFS Qt build for cross compiling Qt for Raspberry Pi. I have successfully done this using Qt5.7 for the RPi2. Never could get it to work for RPi3. Now that 5.8 is available I am once again trying to build for RPi3.
    I am building for open source using this config line:
    ./configure -release -opengl es2 -device linux-rpi3-g++ -device-option CROSS_COMPILE=~/raspi/tools/arm-bcm2708/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-raspbian-x64/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf- -sysroot ~/raspi/sysroot -prefix /usr/local/qt5pi -extprefix ~/raspi/qt5pi -hostprefix ~/raspi/qt5 -v -nomake examples -nomake tests -no-use-gold-linker

    All seems well until make throws these errors:

    /home/syoung/raspi/sysroot/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libQt5Network.so.5: undefined reference to `qt_safe_select(int, fd_set*, fd_set*, fd_set*, timespec const*)'

    I do need qtSerial but not the CAN stuff.
    
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    Before
    git clone http://code.qt.io/qt/qtserialbus.git
    cd qtserialbus
    qmake
    make
    make install
    After
    git clone http://code.qt.io/qt/qtserialport.git
    cd qtserialport
    qmake
    make
    make install
    I build qt on RPI 3 and I work with qt serial port. I received the following link as a reference and a successful result.
    Referance: [http://wiki.qt.io/RaspberryPi2EGLFS]

    Good luck.

      Thank you for the advice. I have followed this document MANY times and only once did I get 5.7 to compile for RPi2. But it does not have webView or virtual keyboard which I need. My goal is to follow the document using RPi3 and Qt5.8 everywhere BUT to date regardless of what I try it ALWAYS fails. Usually for different reasons. The latest is wont build webEngine. I have followed MANY other docs as well in which people were successful and my builds still fail.
      I will keep trying. Thank you.

        Did you follow the instructions below? I tried and it works for Qt 5.8.

          webView

          The problem with the web components is that compiling it takes a lot of memory that the Pi just don't have.

              You can try to recompile the module.

              sudo git clone http://code.qt.io/qt/qtwebengine -b 5.8
              cd qtwebengine
              sudo ~/raspi/build/qt5.8-host/bin/qmake -r // If I'm not mistaken, it is correct path.check it please.
              sudo make -r
              sudo make install -r
              

              Good luck.

                did you install gperf? It´s needed to build WebEngine.

                  Hi yes I installed these on the Pi in addition to the packages listed in
                  https://github.com/Kukkimonsuta/rpi-buildqt
                  RPi Install ninja on Rpi & resync
                  Rpi Install ruby on Rpi & resync
                  Rpi Installed Libxss
                  Rpi Installed Ninja-build
                  RPI installed gperf

                  when I build per aktay's recommendation I get an error in qmake step:

                          1st of all - thank you so much for your help!

                          git is definitely installed on host but was not installed on Pi. Installed & sync with 2_sync.sh.

                            @sly110 said in How to build Qt for Raspberry Pi3:

                            sudo git clone http://code.qt.io/qt/qtwebengine -b 5.8

                            Are you sure git is installed? Try this, please.

                            sudo apt-get install git
                            sudo git clone http://code.qt.io/qt/qtwebengine -b 5.8
                            cd qtwebengine
                            sudo ~/raspi/build/qt5.8-host/bin/qmake -r
                            sudo make -r
                            sudo make install -r
                            

                            Will you share the output of the following commands with me?

                            • sudo ~/raspi/build/qt5.8-host/bin/qmake -r

                            FYI: using https://github.com/Kukkimonsuta/rpi-buildqt
                            I have previously built:
                            3.1, 3.2, 3.3. 34. AND svg, virtualkeyboard, serialport

                            tried doing connectivity but it apparently depends on NFC that I did not see in the qt repo.

                              1st of all - thank you so much for your help!

                              git is definitely installed on host but was not installed on Pi. Installed & sync with 2_sync.sh.

                              on host:

                                I believe this is finally solved although it was an arduous process.

                                • Started with fresh Ubuntu16 LTS and fresh Jessie Lite

                                • Followed Aktays instructions to manually build qtwebengine. Each time it failed, tried to determine missing dependencies. This is what is needed on the VM in addition to those listed in Kukkimonsuta/rpi-buildqt : gperf, bison, flex, gcc-mulitlib, g++ mulitlib, libx32gcc-4.8-dev.

                                Thanks to everyone who helped!

                                  What did you do that actually solved the "gyp: name 'arm_thumb' is not defined" error?

                                  Is this actually linked to missing dependencies on the host or target?

                                  I've been trying to cross-compile Qt 5.8 for my RPi3 many different ways now, including the steps mentioned here, but I always end up with this error when it tries to compile qtwebengine.

                                    I am also trying to crosscompile qt in raspberry pi 2 for the past weeks following the

                                    https://www.ics.com/blog/configuring-qt-creator-raspberry-pi

                                    https://wiki.qt.io/RaspberryPi2EGLFS

                                    . I configured it without any errors. When i am running a console application the output is getting displayed on the raspberry pi but when i am trying to debug a widget application i am getting this displayed in my qt creator.

                                    Unable to find dynamic linker breakpoint function.
                                    GDB will be unable to debug shared library initializers

                                    Use the "info sharedlibrary" command to see the complete listing.
                                    Do you need "set solib-search-path" or "set sysroot"?Unable to query physical screen size, defaulting to 100 dpi.

                                    can anyone help me in this?

                                      Hi amruz,

                                      the build of your qt libraries is not in you sysroot. You can either copy qt5pi directory to <your sysroot>/usr/local/ on your development host or tell gdb to load the libraries from your target (see https://forum.qt.io/topic/76928/raspberry-pi-3-debug-info-how-to-fix/38)

                                        @sneubert i tried by writing these commands in additional startup commands in qt
                                        set sysroot target:/
                                        but the same warning is coming..
                                        when i am running a console app it is getting displayed in the raspberry without any problems.
                                        but for widget application

                                          ok, my answer was to solve the problem not beeing abel to debug your application:

                                          Unable to find dynamic linker breakpoint function.
                                          GDB will be unable to debug shared library initializers
                                          and track explicitly loaded dynamic code.Could not load shared library symbols for 22 libraries, e.g. /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libarmmem.so.
                                          Use the "info sharedlibrary" command to see the complete listing.
                                          Do you need "set solib-search-path" or "set sysroot"? 
                                          

                                          for the remaining message:

                                          Unable to query physical screen size, defaulting to 100 dpi.
                                          To override, set QT_QPA_EGLFS_PHYSICAL_WIDTH and QT_QPA_EGLFS_PHYSICAL_HEIGHT (in millimeters).
                                          

                                          take a look at previous posts in this forum, e.g.
                                          https://forum.qt.io/topic/77387/eglfs-unable-to-query-physical-screen-size-defaulting-to-100-dpi
