com.unity.toolchain.linux-x86_64-linux

The com.unity.toolchain.linux-x86_64-linux package provides a toolchain for building IL2CPP players targeting both Linux and Embedded Linux platforms on a Linux 64-bit(x86_64) host. It depends on the following package:

• com.unity.sysroot.base for common code

For an overview of Unity's Embedded Linux support, refer to the Getting started with Embedded Linux guide.

Prior to installing a toolchain package, ensure that Linux and/or Embedded Linux support has been added to the Unity Editor. For additional details, see Install the Unity Editor for Embedded Linux.

Choosing the Correct Sysroot Package

When building Linux or Embedded Linux IL2CPP players, the appropriate com.unity.sdk.* package should be selected based on the intended target platform:

Target Platform	Recommended Sysroot Package
Linux x86_64	com.unity.sdk.linux-x86_64
Embedded Linux x86_64	com.unity.sdk.linux-x86_64
Embedded Linux ARM64	com.unity.sdk.linux-arm64

Building IL2CPP Players for Linux and Embedded Linux

Once the appropriate toolchain package has been installed for the host platform, the Unity project can be configured by navigating to:

Project Settings > Player > Configuration, and setting the Scripting Backend to IL2CPP.

To build the player:

1. Open File > Build Settings.
2. In the Target Platform dropdown, select either Linux or Embedded Linux.
3. If Embedded Linux is selected, choose x64 or Arm64 as the desired Architecture.
4. Select Build or Build and Run to generate the player executable.
