[yocto] Building clang with Yocto

[Jim Rafert]

I have attached the script.  Basically, all that it does is extract the tarball from the install script, untar it into a temp directory, install the rpm created by the llvm build, then tar the temp directory back onto the tail of the script.
The script lives in a subdirectory of the main poky directory, and assumes that that is your current working directory when you execute it.  Of course, it will need modification on your part because it assumes filenames based upon my own llvm recipes.

I would appreciate if you figure out how to get them installed correctly from entirely within the Yocto framework, you will share the information.

Hi Jim,

How did you jam the clang compiler into the SDK tarball?

Hello Chan,

I have been working to a similar goal, to include clang in the toolchain to be used for compiling applications to run on the target.  Using clang to compile the OS and kernel are not required or  desired by me.

You may get some insight from the thread I started in November on the subject.  I'm not sure that this contains all of the posts on the subject. You may want to search the archive for November.

I have not been successful yet in getting clang actually packaged in the toolchain, in the Yocto build,  but at least it builds.  I have a postbuild script that takes the built clang compiler from the work directory and jams it into the SDK tarball that is embedded in the sdk install script.

-Jim-
