Crosscompiling Qt5.15.2 makes error due to undeclared ‘getentropy’

Hupe

I use gcc-linaro-6.3.1-2017.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gn to cross-compile qt5.12.2，it returns error as below:

I wonder is a mismatch of the toolchain. Is there any version of toolchains that could work well?

Hi,

Why not use the latest release of the cross toolchain ?

Because it's the toolchain in the board SDK, I have compiled Qt5.12.2 successfully with gcc-linaro-7.5.0-2019.12-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu.Thanks.
Besides, it still makes another error if I use gcc-linaro-7.5.0 to compile Qt5.15.2 . I will check it later.
