[dpdk-dev] [RFC PATCH] RFC build: prototype support for ARM builds

[dpdk-dev] [RFC PATCH] RFC build: prototype support for ARM builds

[Bruce Richardson]

Add some skeleton files to enable compiling for ARM target. This has been
tested by doing a cross-compile for armv8-a type using the linaro gcc
toolchain.

	meson arm-build --cross-file aarch64_cross.txt
	ninja -C arm-build

where aarch64_cross.txt contained the following

	[binaries]
	c = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc'
	cpp = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-cpp'
	ar = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-ar'

	[host_machine]
	system = 'linux'
	cpu_family = 'aarch64'
	cpu = 'armv8-a'
	endian = 'little'

It is hoped that those working on arm architecture can use this as a baseline
to add arm support - both native compiled and cross-compiled - to the meson
build.

Can't comment on ARM functionality, but shouldn't the new files use
SPDX ids rather than the full license header?

Yes, they should. However, this is just a prototype patch used to verify
the cross-compile functionality of the build system and is not directly
intended for merge. A proper implementation should, I think, come from
those more familiar with arm architecture than I am. [Hence the CC of
Jerin and Hemant on the patch]. Because of that I didn't go back to edit
the license tag of the patch i.e. I was a bit lazy. :-)

From: Bruce Richardson <bruce.richardson@intel.com>

Add files to enable compiling for ARM cross builds.
This can be tested by doing a cross-compile for armv8-a type using
the linaro gcc toolchain.

        meson arm-build --cross-file aarch64_cross.txt
        ninja -C arm-build

where aarch64_cross.txt contained the following

        [binaries]
        c = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc'
        cpp = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-cpp'
        ar = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-ar'

        [host_machine]
        system = 'linux'
        cpu_family = 'aarch64'
        cpu = 'armv8-a'

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 1/2] build: add support for ARM builds

[Pavan Nikhilesh]

From: Bruce Richardson <bruce.richardson@intel.com>

Add files to enable compiling for ARM cross builds.
This can be tested by doing a cross-compile for armv8-a type using
the linaro gcc toolchain.

        meson arm-build --cross-file aarch64_cross.txt
        ninja -C arm-build

where aarch64_cross.txt contained the following

        [binaries]
        c = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc'
        cpp = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-cpp'
        ar = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-ar'

        [host_machine]
        system = 'linux'
        cpu_family = 'aarch64'
        cpu = 'armv8-a'
        endian = 'little'

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 2/2] build: add support for detecting march on ARM

[Pavan Nikhilesh]

Added support for detecting march and mcpu by reading midr_el1 register.
The implementer, primary part number values read can be used to figure
out the underlying arm cpu.

I have moved them above so that they can be overridden by the arch specific
scripts called by subdir(arch_subdir).
Example RTE_MAX_VFIO_GROUPS needs to be 128 in thunderx.

Hi Hemant,

yes, this is planned to be merged as *experimental* for 18.02. If no
feedback, I'll pull them as-is for 18.02 and we can fix appropriately in
18.05. I've verified at least that cross-compiling for arm works with
them applied, but the changes for detecting platform in the
non-cross-compile case I can't test, so your input on that would be
appreciated.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 1/2] build: add support for ARM builds

[Pavan Nikhilesh]

From: Bruce Richardson <bruce.richardson@intel.com>

Add files to enable compiling for ARM cross builds.
This can be tested by doing a cross-compile for armv8-a type using
the linaro gcc toolchain.

        meson arm-build --cross-file aarch64_cross.txt
        ninja -C arm-build

where aarch64_cross.txt contained the following

        [binaries]
        c = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc'
        cpp = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-cpp'
        ar = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-ar'

        [host_machine]
        system = 'linux'
        cpu_family = 'aarch64'
        cpu = 'armv8-a'
        endian = 'little'

 v4 Changes:
 - use set_quoted to set config instead of explicitly using quotes.

 v3 Changes:
 - Fix missing SPDX license tags

 v2 Changes:
 - Merged RFC patch.
 - Added framework to easily other vendor specific flags
 - renamed machine_arg to machine_args

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 2/2] build: add support for detecting march on ARM

[Pavan Nikhilesh]

Added support for detecting march and mcpu by reading midr_el1 register.
The implementer, primary part number values read can be used to figure
out the underlying arm cpu.

There're only Cavimu args/flags defined, so other arm/arm64 platforms will fail at detecting.  Can you add one entry for default?

Script will fail for non-cavium Arm platforms.  We need to check if cmd_output[0] is a known value in a list, otherwise should go to default entry.

Hi Herbert,

Thanks for the review, will add a default entry for generic arm.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v5 1/2] build: add support for ARM builds

[Pavan Nikhilesh]

From: Bruce Richardson <bruce.richardson@intel.com>

Add files to enable compiling for ARM cross builds.
This can be tested by doing a cross-compile for armv8-a type using
the linaro gcc toolchain.

        meson arm-build --cross-file aarch64_cross.txt
        ninja -C arm-build

where aarch64_cross.txt contained the following

        [binaries]
        c = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc'
        cpp = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-cpp'
        ar = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-ar'

        [host_machine]
        system = 'linux'
        cpu_family = 'aarch64'
        cpu = 'armv8-a'
        endian = 'little'

Signed-off-by: Bruce Richardson <bruce.richardson@intel.com>
Signed-off-by: Pavan Nikhilesh <pbhagavatula@caviumnetworks.com>
---

 v5 Changes:
 - Use generic_armv8 config when script returns unknows machine args

 v4 Changes:
 - use set_quoted to set config instead of explicitly using quotes.

 v3 Changes:
 - Fix missing SPDX license tags

 v2 Changes:
 - Merged RFC patch.
 - Added framework to easily other vendor specific flags
 - renamed machine_arg to machine_args

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v5 2/2] build: add support for detecting march on ARM

[Pavan Nikhilesh]

Added support for detecting march and mcpu by reading midr_el1 register.
The implementer, primary part number values read can be used to figure
out the underlying arm cpu.

So is there an expected patch ordering here? I believe the set for
adding Octeon drivers to build is ok to merge, though there is a small
change for renaming machine_arg to machine_args in it if these patches
are not applied first. Will I take that set, if my recent rebase on top
of mainline has not broken it, and you can rebase these to take account
of that extra driver?

Now that the cross files naming and directory structure is agreed upon I will
merge the patches as a single set and send it fixing the machine_args part for
app/test-eventdev.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v6 1/4] build: add support for ARM builds

[Pavan Nikhilesh]

From: Bruce Richardson <bruce.richardson@intel.com>

Add files to enable compiling for ARM native/cross builds.
This can be tested by doing a cross-compile for armv8-a type using
the linaro gcc toolchain.

        meson arm-build --cross-file aarch64_cross.txt
        ninja -C arm-build

where aarch64_cross.txt contained the following

        [binaries]
        c = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc'
        cpp = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-cpp'
        ar = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-ar'

        [host_machine]
        system = 'linux'
        cpu_family = 'aarch64'
        cpu = 'armv8-a'
        endian = 'little'

---

 v6 Changes:
 - add documentation for cross compiling with meson
 - rebase onto master
 - fix commit logs

 v5 Changes:
 - Use generic_armv8 config when script returns unknows machine args

 v4 Changes:
 - use set_quoted to set config instead of explicitly using quotes.

 v3 Changes:
 - Fix missing SPDX license tags

 v2 Changes:
 - Merged RFC patch.
 - Added framework to easily other vendor specific flags
 - renamed machine_arg to machine_args

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v6 2/4] build: add support for detecting march on ARM

[Pavan Nikhilesh]

Added support for detecting march and mcpu by reading midr_el1 register.
The implementer, primary part number values read can be used to figure
out the underlying arm cpu.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v6 3/4] build: add support for vendor specific ARM cross builds

[Pavan Nikhilesh]

Add various vendor specific cross build targets.
This can be verified by using linaro toolchain and running

   meson build --cross-file config/arm/arm64_<cpu>_<platform>_<compiler>

In future more cross build targets can be added.

+Cross Compiling DPDK
+--------------------
+
+To cross-compile DPDK on a desired target machine we can use the following
+command::
+
+	meson cross-build --cross-file <target_machine_configuration>
+
+For example if the target machine is arm64 we can use the following
+command::
+	meson arm-build --cross-file config/arm/arm64_armv8_linuxapp_gcc
+
+where config/arm/arm64_armv8_linuxapp_gcc contains the following
+parameters::
+
+	[binaries]
+	c = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc'
+	cpp = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-cpp'
+	ar = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-ar'

Set LGTM. No issues in my cross-compilation testing.

I'd appreciate a final Ack from someone more familiar with ARM than me
before applying.
