[BUILD] Use Raspberry Pi to build Android Project (AOSP)

$

Hi all !

My current project is to use my Raspberry Pi as a Build Machine to build all Android sources (AOSP). In fact, I'll not build AOSP but the CyanogenMod (wich is mainly a fork from AOSP).

I know this may sound crazy, dumb or useless (according to Google, a 64-bit environment is required, and a lot (>> 4GB) of RAM if you're in a hurry), especially to use an ARM processor to build while all the Makefiles has been written to be used on x86...

But what I'm thinking about is a really cheap, silent, but working build machine, to sync the repo and build nightlies everyday. The first build will take some days but then, only the changes will be build so I think that only some hours per day will be required.

If I success, I'll create a big tutorial to explain what changes was required.

First of all, I had to add the Linux-armv61 arch as Host OS/ARCH :

Code:

pi@raspberrypi ~/buildspace/android/system/build $ git diff
diff --git a/core/envsetup.mk b/core/envsetup.mk
index 862b7f0..34eb31a 100644

+ifneq (,$(findstring arm,$(UNAME)))

+endif

 BUILD_ARCH := $(HOST_ARCH)

 ifeq ($(HOST_ARCH),)

then, I did this (because the raspbian ld doesn't support --icf) :

but now I am stuck with this error :

I don't really know what I have to do and if it is because the HOST is an arm arch...

It have been a long time since I didn't put my hands in this kind of things and I need help to solve this problems... Thanks in advance !
