Qt 5.11 for Beaglebone Black
-
I am using Beaglebone Black Rev C with BB-View CapeManager as follow:
1/ Latest kernel version "Linux arm 4.15.0-bone2.1 #1 Tue Jan 30 11:48:09 GMT 2018 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux"
2/ BBB fire up correctly and screen work correctly
3/ Build Qt-everywhere package 5.11 fro io.qtdownload site
4/ The Qt for ARM build successfully and deployed across Beaglbone black
5/ A small test program developed on x86_64bit development Machine, targeted for an ARM.
6/ I am using cross-compiler toolchain "arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc-7.2.1-*"
7/ Binary program definitely generating executable for an ARM cpu
8/ After deployment of the binary test program on BBB machine.An error!
9/ "./test: /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.25' not found (required by /usr/local/qt5.11/lib/libQt5Core.so.5)"
0/ I ran on BBB "sudo ldconfig -v
a/ The lib 'ib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libc.so.6' exists in the given path
b/ After executing command objdump -p test following result I get

Your help, advise tip(s) or any info on this problem will be greatly appreciated. Thank you,

I'd say your sysroot is bad. It is building against a newer version of GLIBC than your target board contains.
I recommend using the sysroot directly from your BBB. See, for example, how this wiki does it: https://wiki.qt.io/RaspberryPi2EGLFS

Hello Sierdzio,
I was replicating I mean following the URL for BBB build procedure from following.
https://wiki.qt.io/BeagleBone_Black_Beginners_Guide
I replicated to its every line as advised.
This simply reflects that the information furnished on this wiki page either incorrect or outdated.
I am beginning to suspect that the compiler I used from Linaro i.e linux-arm-linaro-7.2.1-gnueabihf (hard float) is a culprit? As I have to modify least two files as follow:a) ..qtbase/mkspecs/devices/linux-beagleboard-g++/qmake/qmake.conf

Well, you can either downgrade the toolchain or upgrade the sysroot ;-) Your choice. Or indeed some config is off but I doubt it.
I build target board BBB kernel with latest version 4.15.0-bone2.1 from
This is irrelevant. You get the GLIBC error because your binary was compiled using higher GLIBC version than your BBB has - and thus the ABI does not match.
This simply reflects that the information furnished on this wiki page either incorrect or outdated.
It's outdated, yes. But also, you are not following it closely if you compile with GCC 7.2 while the wiki mentions 4.9 ;-) Once you resolve the problems you're having, please consider updating the wiki.
I think the GCC is too new for given OS image (Debian Jessie is an old beast).

Hi Sierdzio,
Since your last post, I changed the arm toolchain currently I am using gcc-linaro-4.9/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-*
to compile and my configure line read as follow:

You can disable the gold linker by passing
-no-use-gold-linkerto Qt's configure script. -
@sierdzio said in Qt 5.11 for Beaglebone Black:
-no-use-gold-linker
Hi Serdzio,
I used my configure script syntax as you prescribed, as follow
./configure -v -opensource -confirm-license -prefix /usr/local/qt5.11 -device linux-beagleboard-g++ -device-option CROSS_COMPILE=$HOME/gcc-linaro-4.9/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi- -qt-libpng -qt-libjpeg -qpa eglfs -opengl es2 -no-gcc-sysroot -release -no-use-gold-linkerBut error seems to be still creeping in I wonder why?

You are mixing hard and soft float architecture somehow. Is your sysroot using softfp? Then you should use the same for Qt compilation (currently you are using armhf - hard float).

https://wiki.qt.io/BeagleBone_Black_Beginners_GuideHey, wow, great news :-) Please also try the compilation itself, too - sometimes the configure tests do not pick all the issues up and compilation fails later (well, Qt is a big beast).
You should be able to modify the wiki page yourself - after editing it will display some scary error message but it is OK - the page will be put up for moderation (probably by @tekojo , I'm not sure who accepts the wiki changes).

after "sudo make install on my dev machine"
I copied an entire directory of qt5.11 across the BBB and moved in /usr/local/qt5.11 directory structure.
the directory /usr/local/qt5.11/lib has all the libs which were build on theserver.
A quick small qt program developed and deployed to BBB to run ./qt-arm-test But
I have following problem
error while loading shared libraries: libQt5Widgets.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I ran ldconfig -v and my environment variable for LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/qt5.11/libecho $LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/qt5.11/lib:/usr/local/lib:/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf:/libwhile $PATH variable also points to qt5.11/lib directory.
But still, the application failed to run. How can be remedied this problem? I have thrown almost everything lock, stock n barrel. -
Check where it is looking for libQt5Widgets with ldd:
ldd qt-arm-testYou can also run it on your Qt .so files to see if they look correct.

I am using BBB with kernel 4.15.1 without any graphical server.
I understood that the QT provide graphical rendering on the screen. As I knew that
graphic rendering done by X11 windowing system or Framebuffer or EGLs by qt but in true sense egls require sgfx_graphic rendering manager to which currently not installed in fact none of x11, xorg, fb or sgx driver currently exists with kernel.
My requirements are minimum or no desktop graphical environment. The application program will render all the graphic through Qt's egls facility.
Can you please shed a light on this to run minimum graphic or only Qt-application will render graphics during its session.
How can be achieved. -
Qt can run without windowing system when you run it with EGLFS plugin. Possibly also with LinuxFB, but that plugin is not actively maintained anymore. You need to have the drivers and OpenGL libs installed.
To make sure EGLFS plugin is compiled, check your
configureoutput.To run your application with EGLFS plugin, run it like this:
./your_app -platform eglfs -
Hi
I built Qt5 for Beaglebone Black, ON BeagleBone Black computer itsefl with 'arm-linux-gnueabihf-' compiler located in the BBB's /usr/bin/ directory an entire qt5 build succeeded
cloning http://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qt5.git/?h=5.11
and configuring as follow:
./configure -v -opensource -confirm-license -prefix /usr/local/qt5.11 -device linux-beagleboard-g++ -device-option
CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/arm-linux-gnueabihf- -qt-libpng -qt-libjpeg -no-opengl -qpa eglfs -no-gcc-sysroot -release -no-use-gold-linker -ico -gif -platform linux-clang
when I run a test program on the BBB computer I am keep getting following message:
This application failed to start because it could not find the Qt platform plugin "eglfs" in "".
Application platform plugins are: linuxfb, minimal, offscreen, vnc
Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
Aborted.Although I have install xdm, xorg on BBB and I can startx window which run perfectly but my own test program cannot????
as you can see I included in my configure eglfs option.
Some help will be truly grateful
thank you, -
Check configure output - does it say that EGLFS support will actually be compiled?
xdm, xorg on BBB and I can startx
That's unrelated to EGLFS.

Hello Sierdzio,
I revisited my qt5 build as follow
/home/username/qt5/qtbase/src/plugins/platforms
Where Makefile resides. Runnings again 'make' that will build entire contents of platform directory including eglfs vnc and linuxfb ... etc.
while 'sudo make install' will get installed in /usr/local/qt5.11/... directory I assume. So the rebuilding platforms directory will definitely build eglfs and install.
Whats your thoughts ... pls let know. -

None, I don't know what your question is ;)
