How to compile LLVM/Clang for Android?

I'm trying to compile LLVM/Clang 8.0.1 for Android with Cmake (since autotools i used before are no longer supported) on mac.

I'm using https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git. In build dir i'm using the following configure script (followed manuals):

cmake ../llvm \
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/Users/asmirnov/Library/Android/llvm_android_arm \
-DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS=clang \
-DLLVM_ENABLE_TERMINFO=OFF \
-DLLVM_ENABLE_THREADS=OFF \
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD="ARM;X86" \
-DLIBCLANG_BUILD_STATIC=ON \
-DLLVM_INCLUDE_TESTS=OFF \
-DLLVM_ENABLE_ZLIB=OFF \
\
-DCMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING=True \
-DLLVM_TABLEGEN=/Users/asmirnov/Library/Android/llvm/bin/llvm-tblgen \
-DCLANG_TABLEGEN=/Users/asmirnov/Documents/dev/src/llvm-project/build/bin/clang-tblgen \
-DLLVM_DEFAULT_TARGET_TRIPLE=arm-linux-gnueabihf \
-DLLVM_TARGET_ARCH=ARM \
-DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON \
-DLLVM_ENABLE_PIC=False \
-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/Users/asmirnov/Library/Android/ndk/android-ndk-r20/build/cmake/android.toolchain.cmake

As you can see i'm using CMake toolchain file from Android NDK (20). Also i've compiled it locally and passing LLVM_TABLEGEN and CLANG_TABLEGEN. Configuration went successfully, but during the build i get the following errors:

Am i doing anything wrong? Is it LLVM/Clang bug? Any workaround?

Solution

  • Yup, this requires some work arounds similar to this. Also use -DLLVM_DEFAULT_TARGET_TRIPLE="armv7a-linux-androideabi"
