Build Instructions
Arm tests the build system of Arm NN with the following build environments:
Android NDK Cross compilation from x86_64 Ubuntu to arm64 Linux Native compilation under aarch64 Debian 9
Arm NN is written using portable C++14 and the build system uses CMake, therefore it is possible to build for a wide variety of target platforms, from a wide variety of host environments.
The armnn/tests directory contains tests used during Arm NN development. Many of them depend on third-party IP, model protobufs and image files not distributed with Arm NN. The dependencies of some of the tests are available freely on the Internet, for those who wish to experiment.
The 'armnn/samples' directory contains SimpleSample.cpp, a very basic example of the ArmNN SDK API in use.
The 'ExecuteNetwork' program, in armnn/tests/ExecuteNetwork, has no additional dependencies beyond those required by Arm NN and the model parsers. It takes any model and any input tensor, and simply prints out the output tensor. Run it with no arguments to see command-line help.
The 'ArmnnConverter' program, in armnn/src/armnnConverter, has no additional dependencies beyond those required by Arm NN and the model parsers. It takes a model in TensorFlow format and produces a serialized model in Arm NN format. Run it with no arguments to see command-line help. Note that this program can only convert models for which all operations are supported by the serialization tool src/armnnSerializer.
The 'ArmnnQuantizer' program, in armnn/src/armnnQuantizer, has no additional dependencies beyond those required by Arm NN and the model parsers. It takes a 32-bit float network and converts it into a quantized asymmetric 8-bit or quantized symmetric 16-bit network. Static quantization is supported by default but dynamic quantization can be enabled if CSV file of raw input tensors is specified. Run it with no arguments to see command-line help.
note that Arm NN needs to be built against a particular version of ARM's Compute Library. The get_compute_library.sh in the scripts subdirectory will clone the compute library from the review.mlplatform.org github repository into a directory alongside armnn named 'clframework' and checks out the correct revision.
How to use the Android NDK to build ArmNN
Introduction
These are step by step instructions for using the Android NDK to build ArmNN. They have been tested on a clean install of Ubuntu 18.04, and should also work with other OS versions.

If libarmnnUtils.a is present in `~/armnn-devenv/armnn/build/` and the unit tests run without failure then the build was successful.
Cross Compilation Build Guide
Introduction
These are the step by step instructions on Cross-Compiling ArmNN under an x86_64 system to target an Arm64 system. This build flow has been tested with Ubuntu 16.04. The instructions show how to build the ArmNN core library and the Boost, Protobuf, Caffe and Compute Libraries necessary for compilation.
Cross-compiling ToolChain
Install the standard cross-compilation libraries for arm64:
sudo apt install crossbuild-essential-arm64
Build and install Google's Protobuf library
Get protobuf-all-3.5.1.tar.gz from here.
Extract:
tar -zxvf protobuf-all-3.5.1.tar.gz
cd protobuf-3.5.1
Build a native (x86_64) version of the protobuf libraries and compiler (protoc):
(Requires cUrl, autoconf, llibtool, and other build dependencies if not previously installed: sudo apt install curl autoconf libtool build-essential g++)
mkdir x86_64_build
cd x86_64_build
../configure --prefix=$HOME/armnn-devenv/google/x86_64_pb_install
make install -j16
cd ..
Build the arm64 version of the protobuf libraries:
mkdir arm64_build
cd arm64_build
CC=aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc \
CXX=aarch64-linux-gnu-g++ \
../configure --host=aarch64-linux \
--prefix=$HOME/armnn-devenv/google/arm64_pb_install \
--with-protoc=$HOME/armnn-devenv/google/x86_64_pb_install/bin/protoc
make install -j16
cd ..
Build Caffe for x86_64
Ubuntu 16.04 installation. These steps are taken from the full Caffe installation documentation here
Install dependencies:
sudo apt-get install libleveldb-dev libsnappy-dev libopencv-dev libhdf5-serial-dev
sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends libboost-all-dev
sudo apt-get install libgflags-dev libgoogle-glog-dev liblmdb-dev
sudo apt-get install libopenblas-dev
sudo apt-get install libatlas-base-dev
Download Caffe-Master from here.
git clone https://github.com/BVLC/caffe.git
cd caffe
cp Makefile.config.example Makefile.config
Adjust Makefile.config as necessary for your environment, for example:
#CPU only version:
CPU_ONLY := 1
#Add hdf5 and protobuf include and library directories (Replace $HOME with explicit /home/username dir):
INCLUDE_DIRS := $(PYTHON_INCLUDE) /usr/local/include /usr/include/hdf5/serial/ $HOME/armnn-devenv/google/x86_64_pb_install/include/
LIBRARY_DIRS := $(PYTHON_LIB) /usr/local/lib /usr/lib /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/hdf5/serial/ $HOME/armnn-devenv/google/x86_64_pb_install/lib/
Setup environment:
export PATH=$HOME/armnn-devenv/google/x86_64_pb_install/bin/:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/armnn-devenv/google/x86_64_pb_install/lib/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
Compilation with Make:
make all
make test
make runtest
These should all run without errors
caffe.pb.h and caffe.pb.cc will be needed when building ArmNN's Caffe Parser
Build Boost library for arm64
Build Boost library for arm64
Download Boost version 1.64 from here. Using any version of Boost greater than 1.64 will fail to build ArmNN, due to different dependency issues.

Troubleshooting and Errors:
Error adding symbols: File in wrong format
When building armNN:
/usr/local/lib/libboost_log.a: error adding symbols: File in wrong format
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
CMakeFiles/armnn.dir/build.make:4028: recipe for target 'libarmnn.so' failed
make[2]: *** [libarmnn.so] Error 1
CMakeFiles/Makefile2:105: recipe for target 'CMakeFiles/armnn.dir/all' failed
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/armnn.dir/all] Error 2
Makefile:127: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 2
Boost libraries are not compiled for the correct architecture, try recompiling for arm64
Virtual memory exhausted
When compiling the boost libraries:
virtual memory exhausted: Cannot allocate memory
Not enough memory available to compile. Increase the amount of RAM or swap space available.
Unrecognized command line option '-m64'
When compiling the boost libraries:
aarch64-linux-gnu-g++: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-m64’
Clean the boost library directory before trying to build with a different architecture:
It should show the following for arm64:
- 32-bit : no
- 64-bit : yes
- arm : yes
Missing libz.so.1
When compiling armNN:
/usr/lib/gcc-cross/aarch64-linux-gnu/5/../../../../aarch64-linux-gnu/bin/ld: warning: libz.so.1, needed by /home/<username>/armNN/usr/lib64/libprotobuf.so.15.0.0, not found (try using -rpath or -rpath-link)
Missing arm64 libraries for libz.so.1, these can be added by adding a second architecture to dpkg and explicitly installing them:
sudo dpkg --add-architecture arm64
sudo apt-get install zlib1g:arm64
sudo apt-get update
sudo ldconfig
If apt-get update returns 404 errors for arm64 repos refer to section 5 below.
Alternatively the missing arm64 version of libz.so.1 can be downloaded and installed from a .deb package here
sudo dpkg -i zlib1g_1.2.8.dfsg-2ubuntu4_arm64.deb
Unable to install arm64 packages after adding arm64 architecture
Using sudo apt-get update should add all of the required repos for arm64 but if it does not or you are getting 404 errors the following instructions can be used to add the repos manually:
From stackoverflow here.
Open /etc/apt/sources.list with your preferred text editor.
Mark all the current (default) repos as [arch=], e.g.
deb [arch=amd64] http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial main restricted
Then add the following:
deb [arch=arm64] http://ports.ubuntu.com/ xenial main restricted
deb [arch=arm64] http://ports.ubuntu.com/ xenial-updates main restricted
deb [arch=arm64] http://ports.ubuntu.com/ xenial universe
deb [arch=arm64] http://ports.ubuntu.com/ xenial-updates universe
deb [arch=arm64] http://ports.ubuntu.com/ xenial multiverse
deb [arch=arm64] http://ports.ubuntu.com/ xenial-updates multiverse
deb [arch=arm64] http://ports.ubuntu.com/ xenial-backports main restricted universe multiverse
Update and install again:
sudo apt-get install zlib1g:arm64
sudo apt-get update
sudo ldconfig
Undefined references to google::protobuf:: functions
When compiling armNN there are multiple errors of the following type:
`` libarmnnCaffeParser.so: undefined reference to
google::protobuf:* ```
Missing or out of date protobuf compilation libraries.
Use the command 'protoc –version' to check which version of protobuf is available (version 3.5.1 is required). Follow the instructions above to install protobuf 3.5.1 Note this will require you to recompile Caffe for x86_64
Errors on strict-aliasing rules when compiling the Compute Library
When compiling the Compute Library there are multiple errors on strict-aliasing rules:
cc1plus: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-Wno-implicit-fallthrough’ [-Werror]
Add Werror=0 to the scons command:
scons arch=arm64-v8a neon=1 opencl=1 embed_kernels=1 extra_cxx_flags="-fPIC" -j8 internal_only=0 Werror=0
