If you run `CPPFLAGS=-D__ANDROID_API__=21 cmake` instead of `cmake`, that may work properly.
I don't understand why it would ever be not enabling _FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 by default unless it's building those files without optimization. It's generally passed by default everywhere.

As an interesting fact, I am (as noted I am getting used to a new version of the build process) not sure if I am building debug or release. Possibly I am building both at once, or neither.

It *sounds* like it might be optimizing some files (where it would pass -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 by default) and not others. The _FORTIFY_SOURCE thing is just what let you know it's broken though. Real issue is not having minSdkVersion set for C and C++ so it's defaulting to 30+.

Okay so check this out, if I manually set the __ANDROID_API__ it says I defined it twice. Could --target=aarch64-none-linux-android26 be doing something magic?

You probably just need to set --target=aarch64-none-linux-android21 rather than --target=aarch64-none-linux-android26. It's the minSdkVersion that needs to be set at compile time for __ANDROID_API__ rather than the targetSdkVersion which is checked at runtime.

Since your code needs to link properly in an Android API 21 environment since minSdkVersion is 21. Stuff that varies based on targetSdkVersion has to be handled at runtime.

So, I believe what is controlling this is -D ANDROID_NATIVE_API_LEVEL=26 , which is being passed to CMake (not clang) and is most likely being interpreted by the CMake toolchain file (script). Problem: If I set this to 21, I get this legitimate-looking error:

This is what the hardware vendor explicitly recommends when using their gradle-based build… I guess I'll try bumping to 23.

I guess part of the problem is
gradle/AndroidManifest.xml refer to these three things as minSdkVersion/targetSdkVersion/compileSdkVersion,
CLANG refers to them as __ANDROID__API__/__ANDROID_API_FUTURE__/?,
and CMake refers to them as ANDROID_NATIVE_API_LEVEL/?/?

targetSdkVersion is android_get_application_target_sdk_version() since it varies based on the actual target and targetSdkVersion is the maximum value it can have rather than the actual value.
__ANDROID_API_FUTURE__ is really just a placeholder for "max possible version".

I screwed up one of my previous tweets about that from desktop Linux copy paste not working properly.
