> Hi folks. Congrats on the bravery for trying to add the CMake build on Xtensa! > > I added the CMake support for the RISC-V devices some time ago so I will share some things that might help. > > * Building is not a valid test, it has to be tested on target as well. Many times CI would build everything and fail to boot. And sometimes when it boots, does not mean its working. > * Sorting source files is one thing, the devil is in the detail: linker flags and static libraries will cause headaches. > * Bootloader support must be taken into account. Xtensa has MCUBoot support but there are a couple configs that use IDF legacy bootloader as well. This should be dealt in the `tools` directory. > > Good luck! Additional to this nice explanation I would like to mention about QEMU test option. If you don't have hardware to test, it is possible to take a look into QEMU solution. Doc for S3 is [here](https://nuttx.apache.org/docs/latest/platforms/xtensa/esp32s3/index.html#using-qemu). It will have some limitations but it is better than just building -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
