Hi,
I'm trying to build a gcc cross compiler for target
powerpc-linux-gnuspe.
The binutils bulds without any problem but I'm not sure why building gcc
fails.
On the contrary your GCC build succeeded ! How else you could have
'xgcc', 'cc1', 'collect2' etc.
which are just the GCC parts?
$ ../gcc-4.4.2/configure --target=powerpc-linux-gnuspe
--prefix=/home/nmarci/usr/local/gcc --disable-shared
--disable-threads --enable-languages=c
$ make
The 'make' means 'make all', the default "GCC build" doesn't mean the
same as 'make all-gcc' !
checking for suffix of object files... configure: error: in
`/usr/src/gcc-build/powerpc-linux-gnuspe/libgcc':
The 'libgcc' is the GCC helper library built for the $target USING the
"ready-to-run" new GCC.
So you have your new GCC ready and can use it to compile all kind of
things like a Linux kernel
and here the 'libgcc' library!
Unclearly told... The right words would have been: "can TRY TO use it
to compile all kind of things
like a Linux kernel and here the 'libgcc' library". It has taken years
since I last compiled a Linux
kernel but I assume it not requiring a 'libgcc' for the target system.
Producing 'libgcc' however needs
the standard C headers for the target Linux system.... The
'include/asm*' and 'include/linux', the
"kernel headers", should be enough when producing a Linux kernel, it is
assumed (by me) to not
require anything from 'libgcc' like "soft-float" routines for a CPU
without a FPU...
