Hi List,
I tried crosscompiling fw_printenv lately (on 2011.03 RC1) but I kept ending with a natively compiled version of fw_printenv. When looking at the tools/env/Makefile I saw it was using $(HOSTCC) and friends, basicly ever since: http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot.git;a=commitdiff;h=abd315a1357ab05e82f0d61ebad6...
Is there a rationale for this ?
Yes, there is an issue requiring to compile the env tools with native compiler.
Just reverting this change to http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot.git;a=blob;f=tools/env/Makefile;hb=78acc472d971...
Makes building a crosscompiled fw_printenv possible again.
You do not need, try this:
make HOSTCC=<your CC cross-compiler> env
for example, make HOSTCC=arm-linux-gcc env
