Hi, all. I have found that package "qemu-accel-armv7l-cross-arm" contains directory /emul/i586-for-arm/ with cross utilities that accelerate the build. Could you explain, how does this construction work? For example, there are 2 binaries in the chroot environemt: bash-4.2# file /usr/bin/make /usr/bin/make: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, ARM, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.16, BuildID[sha1]=0xe1ed5cff83cb3973a9b8ed363857cd796dba63cf, not stripped bash-4.2# file /emul/i586-for-arm/usr/bin/make /emul/i586-for-arm/usr/bin/make: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.16, BuildID[sha1]=0x90f51594906fdc9f7906c7e119ba8703a616d4b8, not stripped bash-4.2# whereis make make: /usr/bin/make /usr/share/man/man1/make.1.gz bash-4.2# LD_DEBUG=all make 2>&1 | tail -10 27438: binding file make [0] to /emul/i586-for-arm/lib/libc.so.6 [0]: normal symbol `exit' [GLIBC_2.0] 27438: symbol=ferror; lookup in file=make [0] 27438: symbol=ferror; lookup in file=/emul/i586-for-arm/lib/libc.so.6 [0] 27438: binding file make [0] to /emul/i586-for-arm/lib/libc.so.6 [0]: normal symbol `ferror' [GLIBC_2.0] 27438: symbol=fclose; lookup in file=make [0] 27438: symbol=fclose; lookup in file=/emul/i586-for-arm/lib/libc.so.6 [0] 27438: binding file make [0] to /emul/i586-for-arm/lib/libc.so.6 [0]: normal symbol `fclose' [GLIBC_2.1] 27438: 27438: calling fini: make [0] 27438: "whereis" says that "make" is taken from /usr/bin/, but ld.so says that it is taken from /emul/i586-for-arm/usr/bin/, so we have cross accelerated executable "make".
