make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- sunxi-script_extractor
---
## Building
Compilation requires the development version of *libusb-1.0* (include header
and library) to be installed for `sunxi-fel`. Unless you explicitly pass
*LIBUSB_CFLAGS* and *LIBUSB_LIBS* to the make utility, `pkg-config` is also
needed.
Available build targets:
* `make tools`
builds tools that are useful on the host. This is what most people will want,
and our default target (when simply using `make`).
* `make target-tools`
builds tools that are intended for the target (Allwinner SoC), using a
cross-compiler. The toolchain prefix *CROSS_COMPILE* defaults to `arm-none-eabi-`,
adjust it if needed.
<br>_Hint:_ When compiling 'natively' on the target platform you may
simply use an empty toolchain prefix here (`make target-tools CROSS_COMPILE=`
or `make all CROSS_COMPILE=`).
* `make all`
builds both *tools* and *target-tools*.
* `make install-tools`
builds *tools* and then copies/installs them to a filesystem location. The
destination is affected by settings for `DESTDIR`, `PREFIX` and possibly
`BINDIR`. For details, please refer to the *Makefile*.
You may use `make install` as a shortcut for this.
* `make install-target-tools`
builds *target-tools* and then copies/installs them to a filesystem location
selected by `DESTDIR`, `PREFIX` and possibly `BINDIR` - see `make install-tools`
above.
* `make install-all`
builds and installs both *tools* and *target-tools*.
* `make misc`
builds miscellaneous (host) utilities that are not part of our 'standard' suite.
Currently this means `phoenix_info` and `sunxi-nand-image-builder`. There is no
dedicated "install" target for these, you need to copy them manuallly.
* `make install-misc`
builds *misc* and installs the resulting binaries.
