Building Qt5 from source on UDOO

nathans

Hello all,

I am having trouble building qt-everywhere-src-5.11.1 onto an UDOOneo board.
The board uses armv7, and has a modified Ubuntu 14.04 OS (UDOObuntu v 2.2) running on it.

This is what I am getting in the terminal:

udooer@udooneo:~/dev/qt-build$ ~/dev/qt-everywhere-src-5.11.1/configure -prefix /opt/Qt5.11.1
+cd qtbase
+/home/udooer/dev/qt-everywhere-src-5.11.1/qtbase/configure -top-level -prefix /opt/Qt5.11.1

Creating qmake...
......l...............................................................................In file included from /usr/include/arm-linux-gnueabihf/sys/syscall.h:31:0,
from /home/udooer/dev/qt-everywhere-src-5.11.1/qtbase/src/corelib/io/qfilesystemengine_unix.cpp:91:
/home/udooer/dev/qt-everywhere-src-5.11.1/qtbase/src/corelib/io/qfilesystemengine_unix.cpp: In function ‘int renameat2(int, const char*, int, const char*, unsigned int)’:
/home/udooer/dev/qt-everywhere-src-5.11.1/qtbase/src/corelib/io/qfilesystemengine_unix.cpp:111:18: error: ‘__NR_renameat2’ was not declared in this scope
{ return syscall(SYS_renameat2, oldfd, oldpath, newfd, newpath, flags); }
^
make: *** [qfilesystemengine_unix.o] Error 1
udooer@udooneo:~/dev/qt-build$

When looking into the files that the error references I feel that this may be stemming from how macros are being named and called in the various files. In the header file referenced 'syscall.h' there is a section as follows

#ifndef _LIBC
/* The Linux kernel header file defines macros '__NR_<name>', but some
     programs expect the traditional form 'SYS_<name>'. So in building libc
     we scan the kernel's list and produce <bits/syscall.h> with macros for 
     all the 'SYS_' names.   */
#include <bits/syscall.h>
#endif

Frankly, I have limited knowledge, but I am trying desperately to learn.
Any help at all will be very much appreciated! My google-foo search style has not found anything as of yet.

Hi and welcome to devnet,

What version of gcc are you using to compile Qt ?

aha_1980

I think @SGaist has a point here. I remember having trouble with 14.04 and 5.11 on my PC too.

5.10 worked fine, but IIRC the default Ubuntu 14.04 compiler was too old for Qt 5.11

nathans

@SGaist the version of gcc I am using is:
gcc (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.8.4 -2ubuntu~14.04.03) 4.8.4

@aha_1980 Yeah I might look into just going with 5.10 see if I still have the same issue

nathans

tried updating and using gcc-4.9 instead of 4.8 and still getting same error

Qt 5.10 also did not work and produced the same error during configure

nathans

been a couple days since I have looked into this, but went in and modified the /bits/syscall.h file by simply adding the syscall number for renameat2

was able to run the configure command and got this error at the end:

ERROR: The OpenGL functionality tests failed!
You might need to modify the include and library search paths by editing QMAKE_INCDIR_OPENGL[_ES2],
QMAKE_LIBDIR_OPENGL[_ES2] and QMAKE_LIBS_OPENGL[_ES2] in the mkspec for your platform.

Check config.log for details.

The full output from running (sorry I know it is long but I was unable to attach a file with everything like i wanted):
