Hello, I've already successfully built a "world" and "kernel" on AMD64 (ath this place a thank-you for the developers!) using the port emulators/qemu_usr_static. /usr/src and /usr/ports are up to date on a daily basis. I use poudriere with a great success (and here again, thank-you towards those who develop and maintain this nice tool!) for building the set of software we need in the department for amd64. Having a jail of arch type aarch64: JAILNAME VERSION ARCH METHOD head-arm64 12.0-CURRENT arm64.aarch64 src=/pool/sources/CURRENT/src (date of jail is 2017-05-03 18:13:59) This jail fails all the time initially starting to build package ports-mgmt/pkg which is the prerequisite and root of all ports due to a configure_error and this configure error states that CC isn't capable of producing working binaries! The host as well as the jail use "WITH_LLD_IS_LD=yes" (which is the default for the ARM64 architecture, so unnecessary to mention) on 12-CURRENT (updated on a daily basis). Well, I live under the impression that the FreeBSD ports folks do compile the ports-tree for ARM64 as the product of fast cross compiling machines. As recommended, I use the LLVM/CLANG/LLD 4.0.0 environment, no GCC. Just for the record. Checking installed ports, I have aarch64-binutils-2.28,1 installed. So, the big question is: what am I doing wrong here or is there a general issue with the ports and crosscompiling on amd64 for aarch64? I'm pretty new to this cross compiling stuff. Please CC me, I'm not a subscriber of this channel. Thanks al lot in advance, Oliver
