[lttng-dev] [yocto] Using lttng-ust 2.13.6 from Yocto Kirkstone and getting weird segfault saying strlen_asimd.S can't be found.

Hey Khem,

Good to hear from you again.  Hope you're doing well.

No, I don't see anything like that.  The Yocto generated sdk
environment script I use if I'm cross compiling on PC for the target
looks like this:

# Check for LD_LIBRARY_PATH being set, which can break SDK and
generally is a bad practice
# http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Program-Library-HOWTO/shared-libraries.html#AEN80
# http://xahlee.info/UnixResource_dir/_/ldpath.html
# Only disable this check if you are absolutely know what you are doing!
if [ ! -z "${LD_LIBRARY_PATH:-}" ]; then
   echo "Your environment is misconfigured, you probably need to
'unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH'"
   echo "but please check why this was set in the first place and that
it's safe to unset."
   echo "The SDK will not operate correctly in most cases when
LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set."
   echo "For more references see:"
   echo "  http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Program-Library-HOWTO/shared-libraries.html#AEN80"
   echo "  http://xahlee.info/UnixResource_dir/_/ldpath.html"
   return 1

But I set myself up with a native build environment on the target to
be able to better run some of the lttng tests to verify it's
compatible with the aarch64 platform (NXP imx8mm in this case) I'm on
etc..

Not using the Yocto environment-setup script on the target and relying
on the built-in values.  If I look at some cmake logs, I see these
options:
