I am building GCC as a cross compiler for the PowerPC. The instructions I am following are from O'Reilly's "Building Embedded Systems" book. At a high level I have done the following.
o Configure the kernel (2.4.18) using make menuconfig
o Copy kernel header files to gcc build area
o Build binutils 2.10.1
o Build the bootstrap GCC compiler ../gcc-2.95.3/configure --target=powerpc --prefix=$HOME/tools \ --without-headers --with-newlib --enable-language=c
o Build C library with linux threads support
CC=powerpc-linux-gcc ../glibc-2.2.1/configure --host=powerpc --prefix="/usr" --enable-add-ons --with-headers=$HOME/tools/powerpc-linux
o Build Full GCC compiler
../gcc-2.95.3/configure --target=powerpc --prefix=$HOME/tools \ --enable-languages=c,c++
Now the error. It looks like a file has been generated by the
configure script that includes "features.h" in the glibc tree.
Since _LIBC is not defined, another include "gnu/stubs.h"
is attempted. However, since there is no file "stubs.h", the
build fails.
Does anybody have any suggestions ?
