I downloaded the binutils-2.17 and gcc-3.4.6 distributions and
attempted to build a cross-compiler for AVR using the following:
tar -xvjf binutils-2.17.tar.bz2
tar -xvjf gcc-3.4.6.tar.bz2
mkdir combined-tree && cd combined_tree
.../binutils-2.17/symlink-tree ../gcc-3.4.6
.../binutils-2.17/symlink-tree ../binutils-2.17
mkdir ../build && cd ../build
.../combined_tree/configure --target=avr --enable-languages=c
--prefix=/home/ulf/devel/avr/avr-gcc
The configuration step seems to go through fine, but after issuing
'make', the build process fails with the following error:
make[2]: Entering directory '/home/ulf/devel/avr/gcc/build/gcc'
../gengtype
.../../combined-tree/gcc/../include/hashtab.h:111: syntax error,
unexpected ',', expecting '('
make[2]: *** [s-gtype] Error 1
What about the file dates..... '2.17' could be near the last '2.16.91' :
Dell:/data1/home/src/gcc-3.4.6 # l include/hashtab.h
-rw-rw-r-- 1 515 515 6835 2003-05-07 23:30 include/hashtab.h
Dell:/data1/home/src/gcc-3.4.6 # l ../binutils-2.16.91/include/hashtab.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7264 2005-11-18 12:36
../binutils-2.16.91/include/hashtab.h
More than 2 years difference! The "in-sync with gcc-3.4.6" binutils
must be much
older, what about '2.14.90' ('2.15') :
Dell:/data1/home/src/gcc-3.4.6 # l ../binutils-2.14.90/include/hashtab.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6835 2003-06-04 22:04
../binutils-2.14.90/include/hashtab.h
This file really was identical but there were differences, sometimes the GCC
sources having a newer file, sometimes the binutils, in the 'include'
(alone)...
Could the problem be that I'm combining versions of gcc and binutils
that should not be mixed? What versions are "safe" to combine in that
case?
Using 'diff' between the common directories could tell which binutils and
GCC releases could be near enough....
Should I report this as a bug?
No.... The FSF binutils and GCC releases should be keeped as separate
and be separately
built :-(
If you want to play with an already "in-sync" Cygnus/RedHat toolchain,
something like the :
ftp.funet.fi/pub/linux/mirrors/redhat/redhat/gnupro/AM33/am33-04r2-2/tools/src-cross.tar.bz2
could be suitable, its binutils version is "2.15-am33-04r2-2",
GCC-version "3.4-am33-04r2-2"
and GDB version is "6.21-am33-04r2-2". Of course you can edit these to
reprent your own
"brand" (For instance by changing the "am33" to "avr" :-). The
'gcc/version.c' has that GCC
string, the 'gdb/version.in' the GDB one and the 'bfd/configure' the
binutils one....
Maybe somewhere is a newer "src-cross" archive... Is "Kuukkeli" (Google
in english, annat på
svenska)" aware about this, hmmm :
http://sunsite.utk.edu/ftp/tigerd2/redhat/redhat/gnupro/AM33/am33-04r2-4/tools/
This seems to be from this year...
