Hi everyone,

I'm following the OS_Specific_Toolchain tutorial on the wiki and I've run into some trouble while compiling GCC:

Code: Select all

/usr/mattise/cross/i586-pc-mattise/bin/ar  rc ./libgcc.a libgcc/./_muldi3.o libg
cc/./_negdi2.o libgcc/./_lshrdi3.o libgcc/./_ashldi3.o libgcc/./_ashrdi3.o libgc

$
./unwind-c.o
/usr/mattise/cross/i586-pc-mattise/bin/ar: can't set BFD default target to `i586
-pc-mattise': Invalid bfd target

I've set up the bfd/config.bfd file properly, I think:

Code: Select all

 i[3-7]86-*-mattise*)
   targ_defvec=bfd_elf32_i386_vec
   targ_selvecs=i386coff_vec
   ;;

Any clues as to why this is happening? Thanks in advance!

Porting binutils/gcc seem to be a bit troublesome eh?

Your edit of bfd/config.bfd looks a little weird...

Try targ_selfvecs=i386mattise_vec

There are also other changes required to both binutils and GCC when building your own custom target.. at this point, I can only assume you set them up correctly.

Good luck

Actually, I think I put the definition before the targmatch.h section, which meant that the target wasn't being put into BFD's target list - I'm compiling again now to find out if moving it to the proper location has fixed this.

Sorry about the double post everyone

...

I've actually gotten past that stage and am now attempting to compile GCC, but I'm running into strife (no surprises there, I guess):

Code: Select all

Configuring in ./libiberty
configure: loading cache ./config.cache
configure: error: `CFLAGS' has changed since the previous run:
configure:   former value:  -g -O2
configure:   current value: -g -O2
configure: error: changes in the environment can compromise the build
configure: error: run `make distclean' and/or `rm ./config.cache' and start over

This happens after I run configure and during "make all-gcc". Any ideas?

the above says the answer, make clean or make distclean && (some configure) && make all-gcc

Thanks, I was at school yesterday when I noticed the folder I was in - making GCC in build-binutils isn't a great idea

. Now it all works, thanks for the help guys!
