Hello again @tomoaki0705 , thank you very much for your continued assistance.

sudo

Just a quirk of me using the command inside the docker inside a directory installed by the Dockerfile's command that ran as root. I don't have access to the folder otherwise. It's not really important.

Digging inside the Dockcross project, I beleive the package is crossbuild-essential-arm64

zip

I'm just following the instructions found here. The soft link is pretty worthless, I forgot it's even there. I removed it in the dockerfiles I've developed for other platforms already.

As for your last question, I'm building a large piece of software that relies on OpenCV. My project's build is fully automated using Jenkins and AWS, with all builds occurring on a single Linux slave, with a single unified script. I do own an ARM64 device, but using it as a compilation slave for my team is out of the question.

Answering your comment:

    [osboxes:/opencv/opencv] $ ls -l /usr/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-c++
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Jan 29 19:11 /usr/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-c++ -> /etc/alternatives/aarch64-linux-gnu-c++

After thinking of extra hours, I think you hit a bug of gcc.
It's too early to decide, and may not be the bug of gcc, but package builder, or somewhere.

The function __builtin_aarch64_uqaddv8qi_uuu does exist on my native arm_neon.h.
This should be supported by the compiler, but somehow, probably the package went in wrong situation with wrong config or something, and it missed some builtin-function which supposed to have.
That explains the situation, and no matter how long we investigate on this situation, there is only one way to go, "Upgrade your compiler"

The alternative I can think is to build the GCC from source, but so far by now, I haven't succeeded about this point.
