Hi Anton,

Just wanted to ask if there are any updates regarding the build failure on Windows with the IAR compiler. I tried to build the head version on Win x64 for NXP LPC55S69  using

IAR ANSI C/C++ Compiler V8.50.9.278/W32 for ARM

GNU Make 3.81

git version 2.36.0.windows.1

CMake 3.24.2

Python 3.10.5

but I still get some errors. They are though not the same as during my previous try:

Could you please tell if there is any plan to fix these errors in the near future?

Another question regarding the latest release 1.6.1: I tried to build this too using the setup mentioned above, but I get an error for missing Perl:

CMake Error at C:/Program Files/CMake/share/cmake-3.24/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:230 (message):

  Could NOT find Perl (missing: PERL_EXECUTABLE)

Call Stack (most recent call first):

  C:/Program Files/CMake/share/cmake-3.24/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:594 (_FPHSA_FAILURE_MESSAGE)

  C:/Program Files/CMake/share/cmake-3.24/Modules/FindPerl.cmake:84 (FIND_PACKAGE_HANDLE_STANDARD_ARGS)

  build/lib/ext/mbedcrypto-src/library/CMakeLists.txt:115 (find_package)

I installed Straberry Perl on my machine and added it to PATH, but the error still persists.  I tried also to re-run pip3 install -r tools\requirements.txt but it says that all the requirements are up-to-date. What am I missing here?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Ildiko,

Thanks for reporting. The same defect is reproducible on other platforms and possibly caused by some recent changes.

Let me update you here when fix be available.

Best regards,

Anton

Hello,

I’m trying to build the Trusted Firmware M on Win10 x64 for NXP LPC55S69 using the IAR compiler, but I get the following error:

[ 76%] Building C object secure_fw/CMakeFiles/tfm_s.dir/__/platform/ext/target/nxp/lpcxpresso55s69/Device/Source/startup_lpcxpresso55s69.o

In the attachment, you can find the full build log and also the CMake build file generation log.

Some details about my setup:

Win10 Enterprise x64. Version 20H2

IAR ANSI C/C++ Compiler V8.50.9.278/W32 for ARM

GNU Make 3.81

git version 2.36.0.windows.1

CMake 3.24.2

Python 3.10.5

I followed the steps from the Getting started guide here than the steps to build the framework for LPC55S69 here.

Do you have any idea what I’m missing?

In case you need any further information let me please know.

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,

Ildikó Pocsai
