This can be easily observed by installing gcc 12 on the host (edk2 currently doesn't compile with gcc 12, patches for that are underway). 93225 1 ross.burton 2022-05-05 14:38:18 +0000 Can you share a log showing this problem? Note that edk2 does build some tools with the host compiler because it needs to run them at build time. 93237 2 ross.burton 2022-05-05 15:24:35 +0000 The reason I believe this is entirely expected use of host GCC to build binaries to run on the host is that I can build ovmf on aarch64, or edk2 for Arm on a x86, so the host compiler is definitely not being used to compile target code. 93661 3 ross.burton 2022-07-12 10:52:27 +0000 Looks like this was fixed with oe-core 7b67f19d353d88107f52cceda3c858730ac1db54.
