cross compiling eglibc with Linaro toolchain

by shyamalan sivan

Hello experts, I don't know whether this is the place to ask this question.Please forgive if i am wrong. I am trying to cross-compile Eglibc,(which i thought is similar to the glibc) library with Linaro tool chain.My aim is to cross-compile the library and add it with the tool-chain( i assumed that Linaro doesn't ahve the eglibc libraries by itself). . I referred to the link http://www.eglibc.org/archives/patches/msg00078.html (README.cross-compiling of the libc) and did the following. I thought that binutils is not required as the tool chain itself contains the loader, assembler etc.(which are the most important in the binutils).So i skipped that step.(i am not sure whether this is right.please correct me if i am wrong). I did the below steps as in the above link. 1) Copied the Linux Kernel Headers 2) EGLIBC Headers and Preliminary Objects 2.1) configuring the Eglibc headers by the below steps. appan@oplt$ ~/cross_compile_eglibc/ppc/obj/eglibc-headers$ BUILD_CC=gcc CC=/home/appan/cross_compile_eglibc/ppc/tools/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc CXX=/home/appan/cross_compile_eglibc/ppc/tools/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-cpp AR=/home/appan/cross_compile_eglibc/ppc/tools/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-ar RANLIB=/home/appaan/cross_compile_eglibc/ppc/tools/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-ranlib /home/appan/cross_compile_eglibc/src/libc/configure --prefix=/home/appan/CC_EGLIBC --with-headers=/home/appan/cross_compile_eglibc/ppc/sysroot/usr/include/ --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --host=arm-unknown-linux-gnu --enable-add-ons --with-tls --with-__thread 2.2) compilation make install-headers install_root=$sysroot install-bootstrap-headers=yes But following is the error i get. > /home/appan/cross_compile_eglibc/ppc/obj/eglibc-headers/Versions.v.iT<http://versions.v.it/> In file included from <stdin>:1:0: ports/sysdeps/arm/nptl/tls.h:48:3: error: #*error "TLS support is required.* " make[1]: *** No rule to make target `headers_install'.

Automatically save preprocessed source on ICE

by Asa Sandahl

Hi there! I need some help with how to handle this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gcc-linaro/+bug/873977 It looks like an improvement suggestion more than a bug. Regards Åsa *Automatically save preprocessed source on ICE*In order to help with bug reporting, gcc could save the preprocessed source of the unit that caused the ICE, so one can just pick it up and attach it to bug reports instead of trying to reproduce it manually.

KVM and OpenStack integration

by Michael Hope

Hi Peter. I've had a poke about in qemu-linaro, OpenStack, and libvirt to get a feel for the KVM integration work. My scratch notes are here: https://wiki.linaro.org/MichaelHope/Sandbox/QEMUA15GuestNotes I'm feeling happy about the integration. The parts that I've seen have good separation, are architecture neutral, and have some ARM support. We can prototype using virtual x86 based masters and QEMU TCG based compute instances. I've seen a few bugs and assumptions: OpenStack defaults to virtio, boot=hda, and fixed kernel args; and libvirt can't parse the the qemu-linaro version string. There will be more. I'll feed this into the KVM 1.0 task list and share it. -- Michael

New conference call number

by Michael Hope

Hi there. Starting next week we'll switch to the Zip conference line. See: https://wiki.linaro.org/Resources/ZipConferenceLine under 1-719-457-1414 for a list of numbers. A selected few are: UK 0 808 101 1146 Germany 0 800 181 9019 Sweden 02 079 7556 Brazil, Sao Paulo Local +55 11 5582 6534 Australia 1 800 105 680 China +400 148 5400 NZ 0800 451 015 The code is 763 804 0680. I've updated the meeting calendar and will update the wiki page once Monday comes around. The moderator code is on the toolchain internal page. Amber, could you update the public event please? Ramana, could you update the performance call for two weeks time? Maybe move it to linaro-events so I can edit it. -- Michael

Cross-compiling Eglibc library with Linaro toolchain

by Amber Graner

Hi all, In my search for Linaro related news this morning, I saw a tweet from Linuxquestions.org referencing a cross-compiling questions. Here is the link to the post on Linuxquestions.org - http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-embedded-78/cross-compiling-e… Thanks, I'll answer from the Linaro Tweeter account that it's been past to the Linaro Developers.

Triage of #914703

by Asa Sandahl

Hi Michael, So, I gave my best shot at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gcc-linaro/+bug/914703 Kind of similar to the one in your walk-through, but I couldn't actually reproduce on the version reported. Could you please check if this looks OK? Regards Åsa

Bug triage run-through

by Michael Hope

Hi Åsa. I've triaged a bug and written down my notes on the way. See: https://wiki.linaro.org/MichaelHope/Sandbox/TriageRunThrough This one turned out to be easy but at least you have the basics. Could you triage the bug for real and see what I've missed? I'm unsatisfied with the result on that bug. The fault is in the Ubuntu Natty compiler which we've long since fixed in Linaro GCC. It would be nice if we could point the bug reporter to an updated GCC. Ask Marcin and Matthias what they think. -- Michael

[ACTIVITY] Week 02

by Zhenqiang Chen

Summary: * Enhance crosstool-ng build process. Details: 1. crosstool-ng patches: * Reproduce the build process by following the README and enhance the document. * Update .config to strip all toolchain executables * Replace harded-coded VERSION by reading config file. * Remove host libiberty.a * Patch on how to strip debug sections is in discussion. 2. Update the crosstool-ng based embedded toolchain build scripts according to the review comments. And replace most of hard-coded config by reading them from .config. 3. Unexpected build fail for gcc 4.7/trunk from crosstool-ng due to unsupported ENDIAN_LDFLAG "-EL", which is used in "LDFLAGS_FOR_TARGET" to build libstdc++. (LDFLAGS_FOR_TARGET seams not used in gcc 4.6). Need more investigation. Plan: * Fix the binary build related bugs. * Ramp-up on gcc. Planned Absence: * Jan 21-29, 2012 Chinese Spring Festival Best regards! -Zhenqiang

uImage built with pre-built linaro toolchain failed to start

by Lv Terry-R65388

Hi, I use pre-built version of linaro toolchain (got from http://people.linaro.org/~michaelh/incoming/binaries/) to build a uImage. The build succeeded, but the uImage couldn't start. The console hangs at: Using FEC0 device TFTP from server 10.193.100.158; our IP address is 10.193.102.233 Filename 'uImage_linaro'.

[ACTIVITY] w02

by Asa Sandahl

* Started with some day-to-day activities in the team. Looking after the proposals and the cbuild scheduler. Will start Created problem log for scheduler problems, there is a link to it from the jobs page. https://wiki.linaro.org/WorkingGroups/ToolChain/SchedulerProblems * Worked on producing graphs for benchmark results using matplotlib. Michael: Would it be ok to put my script in linaro-toolchain-benchmarks/scripts? * Kicked off some benchmarks with gcc-linaro-4.6-2012.01. To start with coremark, eembc, denbench, pybench and spec2000. We will see what's there after the weekend. Variants: os-neon, o2-neon, o3-neon-novect and o3-neon. /Regards Åsa
