Hi Liyang,

You have "LLVM_DEFAULT_TARGET_TRIPLE=arm-linux-gnueabihf"  and
"CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS='-target armv7a-linux-gnueabihf" which are different, and
may confuse Clang when finding tools and libraries. Use whatever is the ARM
triple in your system (looks like it's "arm-linux-gnueabihf") and make both
target triple and "-target" to be that exact same string.

Also, you're including x86_64 libraries
(ex. -L/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.8/libatomic.so) to an ARM
compilation job, that won't work. You have to find the ARM version (maybe
/usr/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabihf/ ?).

Finally, the include paths with -I are only necessary if Clang cannot find
it. The first three should be ok, but using -I on a DSO object
(libatomic.so) makes no sense.

cheers,
