Configuration tests failed to determine host architecture

Hi and welcome to devnet,
What kind of machine are you on ?
What architecture is it ?
What OS are you running ? -
I am working on Linux SUSE. Trying to compile it for our product that uses ARM.
-
Are you compiling or cross-compiling ?
-
What kind of machine are you on? Embedded system
What architecture is it? Generic-arm-g++
What OS are you running? POSIX
Are you compiling or cross-compiling? Cross Compiling -
Would you mind giving a bit more information about that system ?
You could talking about a Raspberry Pi as well as the next gen multicore machine for the server space.
-
So I am trying to cross compile from my Linux Machine onto a device that is a Raspberry Pi based architecture.
Host Architecture - x86_64
Target Architecture - aarch64We are using Qt 5.6 and with the same setup, the configurations tests are successful. However, I am trying to upgrade to QT 5.15.0 and I am coming across this error when I try to run the configure script.
Checking for machine tuple... yes
Checking for valid makespec... yes
Checking for alloca() in alloca.h... yes
Checking for target architecture... x86_64
Checking for host architecture... Project ERROR: Could not determine host architecture. See config.log for details.I am not sure why it shows target architecture as x86_64 when x86_64 is actually the host architecture. Could it be possible that it got swapped?
As I mentioned, the exact same command with the same host and target devices is successfully with Qt 5.6. Do you know what changed between 5.6 and 5.15 that could have affected this?
-
What options are you passing to configure ?

Can you try a standard configure run with the defaults ?
Out of curiosity, with all the skip options you are adding, are you building anything else than qtbase ?

@SGaist said in Configuration tests failed to determine host architecture:

When I run configure on my host machine without cross compiling, the tests are successful.
No, I am planning on building just the qtbase.
-
So we have a patch to change the QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE and QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE_FULL flags based on the product we are building it for.
I am passing in a value using 'device-option' to the configure script in qtbase. However, for some reason, that value is not getting passed to qtbase/mkspecs/common/gcc-base.conf
