[Scratchbox-devel] Foreign toolchain - crosstool-0.43 and scratchbox

[Arabinda Verma]

Hello,

I am use toolchain generated by crosstool-0.43 in scratchbox. The toolchain
is build with gcc 4.1.1, glibc 2.5 for iWMMXt with ARM EABI support. I am
using scratchbox 1.0.7.

The very first question. Somewhere in the mailing list I read scratchbox
does not support gcc >= 4.0. Can I use gcc 4.1.1 with scratchbox?

I am refering "Foreign Toolchain" and "CrossToolToolChain" from scratchbox
Wiki.

According to CrossToolToolChain, I have to build toolchain if it is using
glibc >= 2.4. So, ran crosstool script inside the scratchbox  and build the
toolchain. It has been  created and placed in
/scratchbox/compilers/mycoolcompiler. It has created serveral directories,
bin, lib, info, include, libexec, ... etc.

I hope I have not missed anything yet.

Now, according to Foreign Toolchain, I cross-checked the toolchain build as

/scratchbox/compilers/arm-linux-withmyhacks/bin/your-arch-name-gcc --version

and I got :

arm-iwmmxt-linux-gnueabi-gcc (GCC) 4.1.1

Gave write permission to directories:
/scratchbox/compilers
/scratchbox/device_tools

Used sb-menu to create HOST target with debian-sarge and perl devkit. Here,
I have a question. Which compiler should I use? I have follwoing in my
scratchbox.
1.  arm-eabi-gcc-4.1.1-glibc-2.5
2.  cs2005q3.2-glibc-i386
3.  cs2005q3.2-glibc-arm

I choose cs2005q3.2-glibc-i386 and proceeded further.

Fetched sb-toolchain-extras repository.

darcs get --set-scripts-executable
http://scratchbox.org/repos/1.0/sb-toolchain-extras

Created the configuration file using

create_toolchain_conf.py.

configuration seems to be fine.... no error yet.

Now building auxiliary tools

Ran following from sb-crosstool-extra

  make CONFIG=meta/alien-tc/yourconfig.conf -C meta/alien-tc all-sums

and

  make CONFIG=meta/alien-tc/yourconfig.conf -C meta/alien-tc

BUT
