And I only finish compiling raw cross-compiler (--without-headers), after make some patches, can let score pass allmodconfig. At present, it seems the score cross-compiler still contents some issue which I shall try to analyse (it is about link symbols), and maybe need communicate with gcc/binutils members. At present, the related score maintainers are still active in upstream kernel, so we also need the related maintainers' ideas and suggestions.
