some questions about ariane-v0.7

[michaelwvw]

I'm using nexys4-ddr-rocket.

1. There is no apt-get available in the embeded linux, then how can i install a software. Just for study, so the performance is not an issue.
2. I cannot find the GPIO device in this embeded linux, then how to control GPIO/LED in linux? I can use the GPIO device in refresh-v0.6.
3. There is no embeded version gcc which is available in refresh-v0.6. Then i tried to compile program in pc linux and then execute it in embeded linux, but it's reporting "./hello: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.26' not found (required by ./hello)". How to resolve this issue? Or is there an alternative way to compile a program for embeded linux?

The distribution was slimmed down a lot to make room for X-windows. You can still install Debian as an option if you are an ‘advanced user’. See below :

Apt is Debian specific. By default buildroot is installed because Debian was a bit unstable at the time. The recommended route is to add your software as local buildroot packages.

This function has not been ported from the earlier release. It should be straightforward for someone else to do however.

The appropriate cross compiler is installed within buildroot. It has not been made available native for some reason.

Thanks jrrk!
But looks like i have to read buildroot docs before i understand your comments.

Hi, Jrrk,
I'm trying to add GPIO function into BR2, then which one should be enabled here. Suppose it's GPIO_XILINX while not the GPIO used in v0.6, am'i right?
I also see "GPIO Bitbanged LowRISC" is enabled, what's it for?

[michaelwvw]

Sorry, missed one thing, since there are address overlay, should disable RTC if enable GPIO?

[jrrk]

These functions just enable a pre-processor symbol, they have no effect unless the appropriate kernel driver is loaded. There is a generic Linux GPIO, that would be the proper way to go I think.

Both functions may be handled by a single driver.
