Howto Build For x86 Host With Arm-Linux Target

How to Build For x86 Host With Arm-Linux Target?
I need to build the source code for ARM-Linux target board, I just taken the source code untar it and executed make, just to check it compiles or not.
Now Need to compile it for ARM target,
so I was using
$ ./configure --host=arm-linux-gcc --build=i686 --target=arm-linux-gcc
and
$ make
but it was not compiling for arm-linux-gcc as while compiling it compiles with gcc option and not with arm-linux-gcc

so You need to export the arm-gcc path before running ./configure.
For example:
$export CC=${arm-compiler-path}/arm-gcc
$configure --target=arm-linux
$make

Still no luck to get the arm compiled binary.
As I compiled using make initially and that time it created ./config.cache file This file is a shell script that caches the results of configure
# tests run on this system so they can be shared between configure
# scripts and configure runs.

You need to delete this file ./config.cache and run again
$./configure --host=arm-linux-gcc --build=i686 --target=arm-linux-gcc
$make

It works Enjoy.

Linux SMB write performance With Simple Tips

SMB write performance can be increased by Tuning the buffer cache. The secret to good performance is to keep as much of the data in memory for as long as is possible. Writing to the disk is the slowest part of any filesystem. If you know that the filesystem will be heavily used, then you can tune this process for Linux Samba. writing out dirty blocks to the disk until the filesystem buffer cache is 80 percent full (80). default is 40%, source = http://tldp.org/LDP/solrhe/Securing-Optimizing-Linux-RH-Edition-v1.3/chap29sec287.html by writing echo 80 > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio I am getting around 2MB increase while write operation, tested in Xp. I have tried with this single option, as the ref source is for linux 2.2 and we are using 2.6 kernel. we can try out Linux General Optimization suggested at http://tldp.org/LDP/solrhe/Securing-Optimizing-Linux-RH-Edition-v1.3/gen-optim.html Tried with smb.conf, I am getting around 1MB gain while read and write. socket options = TCP_NODELAY I...
