Hello,
I have a problem building gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf
toolchain for my x86_64 system. I download crosstool-ng (v1.13) and
toolchain source code (4.8-2014.03) from
http://releases.linaro.org/14.03/components/toolchain/binaries. I use
the example configuration linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf (obtained from
ct-ng list-samples) and modify some entries using menuconfig option,
like the local tarballs directory (pointing to downloaded toolchains
source code directory) and the prefix directory (custom directory output).
This is the problem during the execution of "ct-ng build" command:

Some idea of what's the problem?
This is my system info:

hi,
For building arm64 kernel, I tried all toolchain released from
http://releases.linaro.org/latest/components/toolchain/binaries/
But it complained about some instructions bad:

with GCC 4.9.
Changing the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the libstdc++.so.6 that
gets built along with GCC 4.9 solves the problem.
* CPU2000 runs are completed my maxim so functional testing of PGO for
spec benchmarks completed.
* Wating on Arm64 hardware to benchmark SPEC2000 and SPEC2006 and
compare against the PGO runs for x86.

Analyzed at GCC trunk validations and reported some regressions.
The current commit rate is very high since stage1, and our compute
farm isn't fast enough. Should be OK after the week-end.
Modified my scripts so that I move these validations out of Jenkins.
* (No Jira card - 2/5)
Continued converting Neon intrinsics tests for inclusion in GCC testsuite.
To make the review easier, I now believe that it would be better that
I convert most of the testsuite first, and rework the patches order.
* Meetings and conf calls(1/5)
== Next ==
* Continue to closely monitor GCC trunk validations
* Neon intrinsics tests
* Off Thursday/Friday next week

PGO - AArch64 (TCWG-179) (4/10)
* Completed SPEC runs -O3 -mcpu=cortex-a57 in chroot + qemu
arm64-saucy with Linaro release source (4.8) march 2014.
* Built Linaro 4.9 GCC branch based tool chain under chroot + qemu arm64-saucy
* Created a PGO config file for aarch64 as a peak configure and use --tune=peak
SPEC gave warning that FDO cannot be used as base flags and will
ignore the flags.
Also setting basepeak = yes gave issues and ran base runs and
setting it to no does both base and peak runs
* Started SPEC2006 runs for PGO under chroot + qemu arm64-saucy
* Perlbench train run failed in qemu.
* Other benchmarks are progressing.
GLIBC Systemtap (2/10)
* Ran glibc make check under qemu. Seen some illegal instructions and
ntpl tests hung in qemu aarch64. Will has completed these tests in
hardware.
Misc (2/10)
* Tested cbuildv2 to build gcc natively under qemu-arm64-chroot-ubuntu-saucy.
git gave issues not able to clone and hangs when downloading
binutils and gdb repos.
* 17th was Public Holiday (2/10)
== Plan ==
* Go through the results for SPEC2006 PGO runs.
* Start functional PGO runs for SPEC2000
* Bug fixing.
== Issues ==
* Toolchain64 disk full
== Progress ==
* Linaro GCC 4.9 2014.04 (3/10)
- Created FSF Linaro 4.9 branch

== Week of April 14th ==
- Benchmarked autoprefetcher patches. (TCWG-388, 2/10)

- Various discussions. (2/10)
- Short week due to Good Friday / Easter. (2/10)
== Week of April 21st ==
- Take Tyler B.'s LAVA test definition for SPEC benchmarking and adjust spec2xxx-utils scripts to match LAVA environment.
- Investigate regressions on gap, eon and wupwise from autoprefetcher patches.
-- SPEC2000's gap in particular is sensitive to 1st scheduling pass with register pressure, and, apparently has a 5% performance improvement potential (at -O2 Cortex-A15).
- Various discussions.
- Even shorter week due to Easter Monday and ANZAC Day on Friday. (4/10)
