Hello Dagg,

thanks for your contributions. Below are some comments I would like you
to read. Please keep scrolling down.

You also need to add a package/libamcodec/libamcodec.hash file.

Doesn't work for other architectures? Why?

We usually add the URL here.

You can use out GitHub helper here:

LIBAMCODEC_SITE = $(call github,mdrjr,c2_aml_libs,$(LIBAMCODEC_VERSION))

> +LIBAMCODEC_SITE_METHOD = git

And this line will not be needed since you are using the GitHub helper.

Which version of GPL? Also, no LIBAMCODEC_LICENSE_FILES?

You have an extra white space before this line. Remove it.

Some comments regarding the whole LIBAMCODEC_BUILD_CMDS:

- Always put $(TARGET_MAKE_ENV) before $(MAKE).
- Instead of defining CC and LD you could just pass
$(TARGET_CONFIGURE_OPTS).
- amavutils and amadec use M_PREFIX instead of PREFIX.

Something like this would work fine:

$(TARGET_MAKE_ENV) $(TARGET_CONFIGURE_OPTS) $(MAKE) -C $(@D)/amavutils
M_PREFIX=$(STAGING_DIR)/usr
$(TARGET_MAKE_ENV) $(TARGET_CONFIGURE_OPTS) $(MAKE) -C $(@D)/amadec
M_PREFIX=$(STAGING_DIR)/usr
$(TARGET_MAKE_ENV) $(TARGET_CONFIGURE_OPTS) $(MAKE) -C $(@D)/amcodec
PREFIX=$(STAGING_DIR)

You have an extra white space/tab here. Remove it.

Now some final comments. You package fails to build with this error:

/br/output/host/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc -O2 -fPIC -g
-I/br/output/build/libamcodec-ed1d8b8c54b05c1a02a8ee44c59744e4cbed3d8d/amavutils
-I/br/output/build/libamcodec-ed1d8b8c54b05c1a02a8ee44c59744e4cbed3d8d/amavutils/include
-I/br/output/build/libamcodec-ed1d8b8c54b05c1a02a8ee44c59744e4cbed3d8d/amavutils/../amcodec/include
-L/usr/lib -I/usr/include   -c -o amaudioutils.o amaudioutils.c
arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc: ERROR: unsafe header/library path used in
cross-compilation: '/usr/lib'

This is because your package is using "-L/usr/lib -I/usr/include" which
are considered unsafe header/library paths (it will use libs and
includes from the host machine, not from the staging area). And
Buildroot treats this as an error because
BR2_COMPILER_PARANOID_UNSAFE_PATH is enabled.

If you disable BR2_COMPILER_PARANOID_UNSAFE_PATH it will not fail at
that point, but it will fail later like this:

/br/output/host/opt/ext-toolchain/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabihf/5.3.1/../../../../arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/ld:
skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libpthread.so when searching for -lpthread
/br/output/host/opt/ext-toolchain/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabihf/5.3.1/../../../../arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/ld:
skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libm.so when searching for -lm
/usr/lib/librt.so: file not recognized: File format not recognized

This is because is trying to use /usr/lib/librt.so from the host machine
which has a different architecture than the target. And it's using the
/usr/lib/librt.so from the host machine because of the explained before
(the unsafe header/library paths).

However this problem will be solved when you amend the commands in the
LIBAMCODEC_BUILD_CMDS as I told you above.

Now, after this, it will fail with an error like this one:

audio_out/alsa-out.c:18:28: fatal error: alsa/asoundlib.h: No such file
or directory

This is because your package needs alsa-lib in order to be built, so you
have depend on it.

Add "select BR2_PACKAGE_ALSA_LIB" to the Config.in, and don't forget to
propagate alsa-lib' dependencies, so also add "depends on
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS # alsa-lib". And this will make necessary to
add a comment section to the Config.in as well, like this:


comment "libamcodec needs a toolchain w/ threads"
	depends on !BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS

And in the libamcodec.mk you need to add the alsa-lib dependency as well
to make sure it will be built before your package. That way the alsa-lib
headers and libs will be ready to use in the $(STAGING_DIR):

LIBAMCODEC_DEPENDENCIES = alsa-lib

After all of that your package will fail again to build with an error
like this one:

make[1]: Entering directory
'/br/output/build/libamcodec-ed1d8b8c54b05c1a02a8ee44c59744e4cbed3d8d/amcodec'

I let you fix this one and the others that may appear.
