Re: [U-Boot-Users] [patch] drop special case for ppc hosts

In message 200701080825.57752.vapier@gentoo.org you wrote:

... then define CROSS_COMPILE as empty string, i. e. use the native PPC compiler.

how does that make sense ? the logic is "if you are on a ppc host, then regardless of your target, use the native ppc compiler"

Argh.. of course you are right.

This is a remnant from the time when this was still called PPCBoot, i. e. when PPC was the only supported target architecture.

I think the test should be changed into

ifndef CROSS_COMPILE ifeq ($(HOSTARCH),$(ARCH)) CROSS_COMPILE = else ...

Then we can also drop the other special case, i. e. get rid of this:

ifeq ($(HOSTARCH),i386) CROSS_COMPILE = else

Does this work for you?
