That's $prefix/$target/lib.  Note that it's inside the sysroot too.
So in your case the host directory searched would be
/opt/cross/sysroot.arm-linux-gnueabihf/opt/cross/arm-linux-gnueabihf/lib

$prefix/$target was an idea that predated sysroot for a place to put
target and tool specific info.  You might see that directory
referred to as tooldir.
