Hello
I would like to ask if someone already tried to build Kamailio for the Embedded Distribution Buildroot. I tried it myself but it looks like Kamailio is not that easy to cross compile.
Thanks
Benjamin
Hello,
I haven't cross compiled myself, but there is a makefile flag CROSS_COMPILE that you can set in such cases -- the Makefile of the modules sets the path to includes and libs based on it. You may need to set other Makefile variables to get it done, look in the src/Makefile.defs to see most of them.
Ovidiu Sas seemed to be active in this space some time ago, maybe he can give further guidelines.
Cheers, Daniel

I haven't cross compiled in a long time ... For proper cross-compilation, the CROSS_COMPILE flag must be set to something, then the LOCALBASE and SYSBASE should point to the staging directory where the toolchain and all the libraries and include files for the target platform are present. Extra compile and link options can be passed via CC_EXTRA_OPTS and LD_EXTRA_OPTS.
An old example for optware can be found here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nslu2-linux/Optware/master/make/kamailio.m...
Some modules have a proper Makefile that will use the pkg-config from staging directory and detect proper compile and link flags while other modules require manual tinkering with the Makefile. It's good to enable the noisy build (Q=0) and check that proper include files and libs are used (from the staging directory and not from the build machine).

Hello
Thanks for the link to nslu2 and the information that I basically just need to set these bunch of variables correct for cross compiling. I was now able to create a mostly working package for Buildroot. The .mk file is attached for others which may run into the same situation.
Thanks
Benjamin
