Cross Compile iptables

Cross Compile iptables

- Iptables

FIRST
Download and extra iptables tar ball.

Simple compile on local machine:

cd iptables-1.4.21
./configure
make
make install

Cross compile

Host: arm-hisiv600-linux
Cross compiler: arm-hisiv600-linux-gcc

./configure --host=arm-hisiv600-linux --prefix= CC=arm-hisiv600-linux-gcc
make
make install prefix=/home/xxx/arm/install/iptables

then copy all files in /home/xxx/arm/iptables to target arm board.
prefix: where to install
according to error infomation, compile dependence first.

Compile static:

./configure --host=arm-hisiv600-linux --prefix= CC=arm-hisiv600-linux-gcc --enable-static
./configure --host=arm-hisiv600-linux --prefix= CC=arm-hisiv600-linux-gcc --enable-static --diable-share

Set PKG_CONFIG_PATH

./configure --host=aarch64-hisiv610-linux --prefix= CC=aarch64-hisiv610-linux-gcc PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/home/xxx/arm/usr/lib/pkgconfig

Compile dependence

All dependence would be same to compile.

./configure --host=arm-hisiv600-linux --prefix=/home/xxx/arm/usr CC=arm-hisiv600-linux-gcc
make
make install

• libmnl
• libnfnetlink
• libnftnl
  Maybe also need nftables
• nftables

Intall pkg-config if not intalled in system.
Add ${prefix}/lib/pkgconfig to$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
e.g.

#Append to ~/.bashrc
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/home/xxx/arm/usr/lib/pkgconfig
#source
source ~/.bashrc
