|
+ NOTES FOR ANDROID PLATFORMS
|
|
|
+ ===========================
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Requirement details
|
|
|
+ -------------------
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Beside basic tools like perl and make you'll need to download the Android
|
|
|
+ NDK. It's available for Linux, Mac OS X and Windows, but only Linux
|
|
|
+ version was actually tested. There is no reason to believe that Mac OS X
|
|
|
+ wouldn't work. And as for Windows, it's unclear which "shell" would be
|
|
|
+ suitable, MSYS2 might have best chances. NDK version should play lesser
|
|
|
+ role, the goal is to support a range of most recent versions.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Configuration
|
|
|
+ -------------
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Android is naturally cross-compiled target and you can't use ./config.
|
|
|
+ You have to use ./Configure and name your target explicitly; there are
|
|
|
+ android-arm, android-arm64, android-mips, android-mip64, android-x86
|
|
|
+ and android-x86_64. Do not pass --cross-compile-prefix (as you might
|
|
|
+ be tempted), as it will be "calculated" automatically based on chosen
|
|
|
+ platform. Though you still need to know the prefix to extend your PATH,
|
|
|
+ in order to invoke $(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc and company. (Configure will fail
|
|
|
+ and give you a hint if you get it wrong.) Apart from PATH adjustment
|
|
|
+ you need to set ANDROID_NDK environment to point at NDK directory
|
|
|
+ as /some/where/android-ndk-<ver>. NDK customarily supports multiple
|
|
|
+ Android API levels, e.g. android-14, android-21, etc. By default latest
|
|
|
+ one available is chosen. If you need to target older platform, pass
|
|
|
+ additional -D__ANDROID_API__=N to Configure. N is numeric value of the
|
|
|
+ target platform version. For example, to compile for ICS on ARM with
|
|
|
+ NDK 10d:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ ANDROID_NDK=/some/where/android-ndk-10d
|
|
|
+ PATH=$ANDROID_NDK/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8/prebuild/linux-x86_64/bin:$PATH
|
|
|
+ ./Configure android-arm -D__ANDROID_API__=14
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Caveat lector! Earlier OpenSSL versions relied on additional CROSS_SYSROOT
|
|
|
+ variable set to $ANDROID_NDK/platforms/android-<api>/arch-<arch> to
|
|
|
+ appoint headers-n-libraries' location. It's still recognized in order
|
|
|
+ to facilitate migration from older projects. However, since API level
|
|
|
+ appears in CROSS_SYSROOT value, passing -D__ANDROID_API__=N can be in
|
|
|
+ conflict, and mixing the two is therefore not supported. Migration to
|
|
|
+ CROSS_SYSROOT-less setup is recommended.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ One can engage clang by passing CC=clang to Configure. In such case
|
|
|
+ PATH needs even more adjustments to cover NDK's clang itself, as well
|
|
|
+ as unprefixed, yet target-specific, ar and ranlib (or not, if you use
|
|
|
+ binutils-multiarch on your Linux).
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Running tests (on Linux)
|
|
|
+ ------------------------
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ This is not actually supported. Notes are meant rather as inspiration.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Even though build output targets alien system, it's possible to execute
|
|
|
+ test suite on Linux system by employing qemu-user. The trick is static
|
|
|
+ linking. Pass -static to Configure, then edit generated Makefile and
|
|
|
+ remove occurrences of -ldl and -pie flags. You would also need to pick
|
|
|
+ API version that comes with usable static libraries, 42/2=21 used to
|
|
|
+ work. Once built, you should be able to
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ env EXE_SHELL=qemu-<arch> make test
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ If you need to pass additional flag to qemu, quotes are your friend, e.g.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ env EXE_SHELL="qemu-mips64el -cpu MIPS64R6-generic" make test
|
