- Installing the Linux Compilation Environment
Prerequisites
You must complete the settings in Basic OS Environment Setup.
Requirements Specific to the Hi3861 Development Environment
NOTICE: This section describes how to use an installation package to set up the compilation and building environment. If you are going to use Docker to set up the environment, the Linux server-related tools in Table 1 are not required, and you only need to install the Windows workstation.
The following table describes the environment configuration requirements specific to the Hi3861 development board.
Table 1 Hi3861 development environment-specific requirements
Installing the Linux Compilation Environment
NOTICE:
- If you acquire the source code using an HPM component or HPM CLI tool, gcc_riscv32 is not required.
- (Recommended) If you obtain the source code via the mirror site or code repository, install gcc_riscv32. When installing gcc_riscv32, ensure that the environment variable paths of the compilation tools are unique.
Installing Basic Software Used for Compilation and Building (Required Only for Ubuntu 20+)
Install the software.
sudo apt-get install build-essential && sudo apt-get install gcc && sudo apt-get install g++ && sudo apt-get install make && sudo apt-get install zlib* && sudo apt-get install libffi-dev
Installing Scons
-
Start a Linux server.
-
Install the SCons installation package.
python3 -m pip install scons
-
Check whether the installation is successful.
scons -v
Figure 1 Successful installation (SCons version requirement: 3.0.4 or later)
Installing Python Modules

Install the Python component packages on which the file signature depends, including PyCryptodome, six, and ecdsa. As the installation of ecdsa depends on that of six, install six first.
-
Command line:
sudo pip3 install pycryptodome
-
Installation package:
-

-
-
Installing gcc_riscv32 (Compilation Toolchain for WLAN Module)
NOTICE: The Hi3861 platform supports only the static link of the libgcc library. The dynamic link is not recommended because version 3 of the GNU General Public License (GPLv3) will be polluted during commercial distribution.
-
Start a Linux server.
-
Install the GCC, G++, Bison, Flex, Makeinfo tools to ensure that the toolchain can be correctly compiled.
sudo apt-get install gcc && sudo apt-get install g++ && sudo apt-get install flex bison && sudo apt-get install texinfo
-
Download the RISC-V GNU toolchain.
git clone --recursive https://github.com/riscv/riscv-gnu-toolchain
-
Open the riscv-gnu-toolchain folder and delete empty folders to prevent conflicts during the download of Newlib, Binutils, and GCC.
cd riscv-gnu-toolchain && rm -rf riscv-newlib && rm -rf riscv-binutils && rm -rf riscv-gcc
-
Download RISC-V Newlib 3.0.0.
git clone -b riscv-newlib-3.0.0 https://github.com/riscv/riscv-newlib.git
-
Download RISC-V Binutils 2.31.1.
git clone -b riscv-binutils-2.31.1 https://github.com/riscv/riscv-binutils-gdb.git
-
Download RISC-V GCC 7.3.0.
git clone -b riscv-gcc-7.3.0 https://github.com/riscv/riscv-gcc
-
Add the RISC-V GCC 7.3.0 patch.
Visit the GCC official patch links 89411 and 86724, and manually add the changes to the .c and .h files based on the requirements in the patch links. Note that the number of rows may not match because of different versions of the patch and GCC. You need to search for the keyword in the patch to locate the corresponding row.
-
Download, decompress, and install GMP 6.1.2.
tar -xvf gmp-6.1.2.tar.bz2 && mkdir build_gmp && cd build_gmp && ../gmp-6.1.2/configure --prefix=/usr/local/gmp-6.1.2 --disable-shared --enable-cxx && make && make install
