execinfo.h error when compiling Node v6.4.0 for OpenWrt MIPS platform

[mitsos1os]

• v6.4.0:
• OpenWrt:
• Subsystem:

Hi guys, I am trying to cross compile Node v6.4.0 for MT7620 MIPS platform using the OpenWrt 15.05.1 toolchain. I cannot get it to complete successfully and always get error:

../src/backtrace_posix.cc:16:22: fatal error: execinfo.h: No such file or directory #include <execinfo.h>

I am also attaching my install script that I use to cross compile node... Any thoughts?

Install Script:

#!/bin/sh

What libc are you compiling against? On linux, node.js only includes execinfo.h when it's targeting glibc, which has that header. What does echo | mipsel-openwrt-linux-gcc -E -dM - print?

Hi it outputs:

What about libc? Is it glibc or uclibc?

[mitsos1os]

I am just starting with OpenWrt and I am not really deep into it, but I believe OpenWrt toolchain uses uclibc...
It actually is shown in the directory structure: ramips-mt7620_gcc-4.8-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33.2.Linux-x86_64

[bnoordhuis]

Can you try applying this patch and see how it goes? My working theory is that your features.h defines __GLIBC__, confusing our "do we have execinfo.h?" logic.

Hi again @bnoordhuis , sorry for the delay... I actually tried your patch and it moved on quite further in the crosss compilation process but it failed not at this spot...
UPDATE: I just saw that this is already an issue here: #7316
