Is an armel build possible?

[oisteink]

Hello.

I am currently running the linux/java version on my NAS, and it's working good. All I had to do was to build sigar, and copy the libsigar-arm-linux.so to /opt/pcmonitor/native/

I tried the Raspberry PI version, but that's using armhf, and my NAS is arm v5, so no hard float support.

Is it possible to rebuild for armel?

Hi,

There are minimum requirements for native client: openssl 0.9.8j , kernel 2.6.32, glibc 2.9. Most of the armv5 systems are outdated: 2.6.16 kernel, glibc 2.5.

I'm running debian jessie/sid on a Marvell Armada 300 (88F6282).

My versions are as follows:

- OpenSSL 1.0.1g

- kernel 3.14.1

- glibc 2.18-5 (eglibc)

Hi,

Thanks! Armada 300 is quite old (370 and newest 375 replace it) but when time will allow us we'll look into this. Stay close and watch the newsletter.

Thanks - I'll stay close

Now while the 300 is quite old, it's still actively marketed by Marvell (see http://www.marvell.com.cn/guide/assets/data/marvell_embedded_processors_psg.pdf). I might be mistaken, but I think both 370 and 375 is armv7 with FPU and can run on the armhf client.
