Just to be clear. You can crosscompile iPXE for ARM on x86 no problem.
The buildarch is still what it is "built for" not what it is "built on"

take the build command:

Code:

make bin-${buildarch}-${platform}/snp.efi

the above would fail if platform is not set to efi - but otherwise the parts of the build command is exactly what is put into those settings. No matter what you build it on.

so make bin-arm32-efi/snp.efi
will have platform set to efi,
and buildarch set to arm32.
