hi,

I am trying to build a set of cross tool chains for my O2 in a freebsd box.

I'v got binutils-2.15 and gcc-3.4.3 (c only) built successfully, but now stuck on the stage of glibc-2.3.3 building. No patches applied

binutils config line
Code:

../binutils-2.1.5/configure --target=mips-unknown-linux-gnu --libdir='${exec_prefix}'/mips-unknown-linux-gnu/lib


gcc config line
Code:

../gcc-3.4.3/configure --target=mips-unknown-linux-gnu --enable-languages=c --disable-shared --disable-nls --with-headers=/usr/local/mips-unknown-linux-gnu/include --disable-multilib

Note directory "/usr/local/mips-unknown-linux-gnu/include/" is just a copy of "/usr/include/" in my O2 box.

glibc config line
Code:
../glibc-2.3.3/configure --build=i386-unknown-freebsd5.3 --host=mips-unknown-linux-gnu --enable-add-ons=linuxthreads --prefix=/usr


error messages
Code:

gmake: *** [all] error 2


I checked the file "glibc-2.3.3/sysdep/unix/sysv/linux/mips/Versions", it mentioned some "magic words" that i should change, but how? In fact , I did try to modify the errlist-compat line and got the building process continued until I got another error. So I think maybe I should not "do this blindly".

Maybe this is a stupid question, since I have no experience in program coding.

Sorry for my english speaking, it's not my native language at all.

Thanks.

Give look at the crossdev code in the InstallGlibc section, I believe I added a hack/workaround that did something to avoid that error; that or it's a glibc patch we've got. I've ran into that error before, but never recall what always fixes it.

Btw, for building a kernel, you only need a binutils/gcc cross-compiler. Glibc isn't required for that bit, only if you plan on building userland stuff as well.

Try with newlib. They are better in cross compilation. I'v just builded a cross compiler i686-pc-linux-gnu -> mips-sgi-irix6.5 .
The hard part of the work is getting a native compiler mips-sgi-irix6.5 from the cross compiler :-)
