Yocto Bitbake Glibc build fails

[Tooght]

Hi,

I'm trying to build a Yocto image but the build fails when compiling glibc.
I ran this command:

bitbake lite-image

I get a compilation error as follows:

Do you have any suggestions?

I have already carried out some solutions as follows:

clean

bitbake -c clean glibc

Compile the recipe

bitbake -f -c compile glibc

but this still produced the same error.

Hello @Bio_TICFSL  i am working on imx8mguf arm a53 core, when I try making the build there comes a glibc compilation error. No matter what I do , I have tried cleaning the glibc. And Ultimately I tried a classic yocto clean. but in vain..

do you have any idea what might be the reason? My build is in ext4 partition and I cannot switch PCs. not a chance. 

Stay Blessed.

Hello Tooght,

I have the same problem. I solved the problem by running the build on an ext4 filesystem. I don't know why, but building glibc on an NTFS filesystem seems to cause the problem.

[Tooght]

Thanks for your great and helpful advice, yes it worked, I used to keep this project oe-source and sstate-cache files on the external hdd disk and its filesystem was ntfs, so firstly I changed its filesystem format from ntfs to ext4 and then run but it didn't work. After that, I changed the main yocto project location and built it on ext4 filesystem and worked,

Thanks a lot again. have a great day.

[dfujita]

Thank you for the result. Honestly I'm not sure what solved the problem. I'm sorry I couldn't be helpful for you.

P.S. Glad to hear the problem is now solved.

[Tooght]

Hi, that's great advice. I'll try it asap and reply you with results

[Bio_TICFSL]

Hello Tooght,

Looks like you have to fix the gibc in your host, since if you are making bitbake with libgc it takes the 64bit form toolchain, so lets fix it from the host.

Regards

[Tooght]

I tried compiling glibc on another host computer. there was no error. It was compiled. Both host systems have the same version glibc package. Do you have any other recommendations?

Hi @Bio_TICFSL,  thanks for your quick reply. I still haven't caught what is the problem? Do you have any instructions or suggestions to fix it? What point should I focus on exactly?

I have installed the host yocto env. on my host comp. as the official board distributor described.

Warm Regards.
