Install raspbian/tools

mkdir /opt/raspi; cd /opt/raspi
git clone git://github.com/raspberrypi/tools

,and then edit ~/.bashrc and add following line

export PATH=$PATH:/opt/raspi/tools/arm-bcm2708/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-raspbian-x64/bin

Check whether all dependent libraries for cross compiler;

arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc -v

Loop mount raspbian.img on cross-compile host Linux

mkdir /opt/raspi; cd /opt/raspi
wget https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspbian_lite_latest
unzip raspbian_latest
sudo fdisk -l 2016-03-18-raspbian-jessie-lite.img

sudo mkdir /opt/raspi/arm-linux-gnueabihf-rootfs
sudo modprobe loop
sudo mount -o loop,offset=$((1131072*512)) /opt/raspi/2016-18-16-raspbian-jessie-lite.img /opt/raspi/arm-linux-gnueabihf-rootfs

Hello World

Copy /opt/src/vc directory from raspbian;

scp -r r_pi:/opt/src ~/pi

cd ~pi/vc/hello_pi

Edit Makefile.includel; make it like folloing

And then;

cd hello_world

make

copy generated hello_world.bin to r_pi and run.
