add GNU make files for arm-unknown-linux-musleabi #35427
Conversation
The arm-unknown-linux-musleabi target used in meta-rust for Yocto didn't explicitly set the arch to ARMv6 and soft float but was instead done via target spec files and never had the compiler running on the target.

I think this is going to need to copy this part of x86_64-unknown-linux-musl because this target also links statically and crt*.o need to be included in the packaged sysroot. @alexcrichton are you OK with merging this? We are not going to test or use this file in our build bots.
@cardoe is there are an issue for this? What sort of problem are you encountering? |
|
Yeah this seems fine to me to add. The makefiles are hopefully all on their way out with rustbuild entering the picture but in the meantime no need to actively turn down something like this. @cardoe does this patch work for you? There's some points @japaric mentioned but if it works then it seems fine to merge to me. |

This seems pretty squarely out of my purview =) |

@alexcrichton It works to build cross compiled binaries for ARM musl but I have not attempted to run an ARM musl rustc. |
add GNU make files for arm-unknown-linux-musleabi For Yocto (Embedded Linux meta distro) Rust is provided via the [meta-rust layer](https://github.com/meta-rust/meta-rust). In this project there have been patches to add `arm-unknown-linux-musleabi`. Rust recently acquired that support via #35060 but only for rustbuild. meta-rust is currently only able to build Rust support with the existing GNU Makefiles. This adds `arm-unknown-linux-musleabi` support to Rust for the GNU Makefiles until meta-rust is able to sort out why using rustbuild does not work for it. /cc @srwalter @derekstraka @jmesmon @japaric
