Multiple interfaces and Cross Compile for ARM

[shashank1094]

If my PC has multiple interfaces with active connection on all of them. How would I know which interface is being used by mobile.

How do I cross compile for ARMs.

If my PC has multiple interfaces with active connection on all of them. How would I know which interface is being used by mobile.

It behaves as if you opened a socket and connect to the remote host from your computer (that's what it does), so it uses default routes (cf results of route -n or ip r).

How do I cross compile for ARMs.

Thank You so much.

Can I select which interface I want to use?

[rom1v]

I have never done that. See https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/277075/force-an-application-to-use-a-specific-connection

Can you help me pin point the problem. I am attaching the logs of the command when tried on ARM architecture:

                                 returns an error if more than one USB device is present.
 -e                            - directs command to the only running emulator.
                                 returns an error if more than one emulator is running.
 -s <specific device>          - directs command to the device or emulator with the given
                                 serial number or qualifier. Overrides ANDROID_SERIAL
                                 environment variable.
 -p <product name or path>     - simple product name like 'sooner', or

                                 If -p is not specified, the ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT
                                 environment variable is used, which must
                                 be an absolute path.
 -H                            - Name of adb server host (default: localhost)

 disconnect [<host>[:<port>]]  - disconnect from a TCP/IP device.
                                 Port 5555 is used by default if no port number is specified.
                                 Using this command with no additional arguments
                                 will disconnect from all connected TCP/IP devices.

adb sync notes: adb sync [ <directory> ]
  <localdir> can be interpreted in several ways:

  - If <directory> is not specified, both /system and /data partitions will be updated.

  - If it is "system" or "data", only the corresponding partition
    is updated.

environmental variables:
  ADB_TRACE                    - Print debug information. A comma separated list of the following values
                                 1 or all, adb, sockets, packets, rwx, usb, sync, sysdeps, transport, jdwp
  ANDROID_SERIAL               - The serial number to connect to. -s takes priority over this if given.

Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.31

Your adb is too old, it does not support adb reverse (required for gnirehtet). Use at least 1.0.36.

[shashank1094]

Very sorry...just saw that it was mentioned in the requirements. Thank you for your quick reply.

[shashank1094]

Can i get a link to latest code for adb...i could not get it any where i have to install it on arm.

[rom1v]

I think there is no official prebuilt version.

I just remembered this: https://github.com/Genymobile/gnirehtet/issues/34#issuecomment-384465130
