This is the same question I posted at https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/60866, I figured I could get more traction here, apologize for reposting.
I managed to build out thumbv7a-pc-windows-msvc target (i.e. ARM32 for windows) using x86_64_pc-windows-msvc tools, based on rust-lang/rust master, with some local patches
- patched compiler-builtins with this PR https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/compiler-builtins/pull/293
- handle panic_unwind for thumbv7a the same as what we have for aarch64, https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/src/libtest/lib.rs#L45
I was able to build rustc successfully: c:\python27\python.exe x.py build --host x86_64-pc-windows-msvc --build x86_64-pc-windows-msvc --target thumbv7a-pc-windows-msvc --verbose
However, once I use the private arm32 rustc to build iotedge-eventlog-messages in azure/iotedge, cargo build --release --target thumbv7a-pc-windows-msvc, I got below error

error: Could not compile `iotedged-eventlog-messages`.
Caused by:
process didn't exit successfully: `rustc --edition=2018 --crate-name iotedged_eventlog_messages iotedged-eventlog-messages\src\lib.rs --color always --crate-type cdylib --emit=dep-info,link -C opt-level=3 -C metadata=7b3a2d69b8dc278f --out-dir D:\git\iotedge\edgelet\target\thumbv7a-pc-windows-msvc\release\deps --target thumbv7a-pc-windows-msvc -L dependency=D:\git\iotedge\edgelet\target\thumbv7a-pc-windows-msvc\release\deps -L dependency=D:\git\iotedge\edgelet\target\release\deps -L all=D:\git\iotedge\edgelet\target\thumbv7a-pc-windows-msvc\release\build\iotedged-eventlog-messages-7acc25993b93c4f2\out -l event_messages.res` (exit code: 1)
After a closer look in the thumbv7a rlibs I built locally, what I have in liballoc.rlib is
__imp___ZN5alloc11collections5btree4node15EMPTY_ROOT_NODE17h486b4088caeaa846E
however the compiler error above is complaining about this symbol cannot be resolved,
__imp__ZN5alloc11collections5btree4node15EMPTY_ROOT_NODE17h486b4088caeaa846E
Note there is one underscore missing in the wanted but missing symbol. I have this symbol which has a prefixed underscore in liballoc.lib, which implies the 3 underscore version symbol for imp is correct, that compiler is looking for a wrong symbol.
_ZN5alloc11collections5btree4node15EMPTY_ROOT_NODE17h486b4088caeaa846E
When I look at other symbols in liballoc.rlib, no symbol has prefix underscore, they all look like this, anon.6bd877021c225a724ec59609200b96d6.6.llvm.13430696783672607638 and __imp__anon.6bd877021c225a724ec59609200b96d6.2.llvm.13430696783672607638 . So there is no problem to find these symbols.
So, who’s doing wrong here? any pointer would be much appreciated
Thanks, Chandler.
