<![CDATA[Cross compiled qt-app gives illegal instruction in target]]>I used the qt for user interface development for our application. I used buildroot for developed embedded linux for our application. I are planning to run the Qt-UI in target application. We cross compiled all gcc/g++, linkers and others carefully . With the crosscompiler toolchain We able to develop the executable. When I transfer the executable to target through scp (not through Qt kits SFTP) and run on target I am getting "Illegal Instruction". Before running qt-app i did LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS=1 ./test (test is qt-app)

I am getting the following

LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS=1 ./test

after executing the LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS, If I run the

./test

I am getting
Illegal Instruction.

How to fix it.

My target system : ICOP VDX6354RD with 512MB RAM, 800MHz Processor

Linux Kernel : 3.8.13

GCC Version : 4.9.4

Qt : 5.6.1

Host System : 64bit, Fedora 24

thanks & regards,

Yes, I cross checked all my shared object files in /lib and /usr/lib.

I am using the cross compiled iso images. Which is built using buildroot.

What distribution are you running on your target ?

I checked in my build all the libraries build using i586.
I found another interesting thing when I run the cross compiled qt executable in virtual machine. It is running without any error.
When I try to run it in hardware i am getting "illegal instruction" error.
Problem found is while running in actual hardware is shared libraries are not getting loaded.
I tried with exporting LD_LIBRARY_PATH before running the qt application. but no change, same error is appearing.

My file output as follows,

test is my qt-app

test: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (GNU/Linux), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, BuildID[sha1]=41e3e6d6fa1db29b9747d7334ee029f375829195, not stripped

My target is i586 architecture CPU. Same I enabled in Linux kernel configuration.

My Kit configuration variables are pointing to the cross compiled path.

I am using qt5base-5.6.1-1cross compiled binaries in target board.

For building qt-application cross compiled qmake I am using.

My Qt creator version installed in Host System is 4.0.3 .

But I configured the Kit in Qt creator with the cross compiled binaries.

Which version of Qt are you using to build your application ?
