Dear Michael Schwingen,
do you still intend to maintain IXP support in uboot or can all those IXP boards be removed? I'd be great if you helped bringing them back in-line!
I still use them and would want to keep these boards (and maintain them).
I only glimpse at the mailing list from time to time - are there any open problems with these boards that need to be addressed?
No, I just cannot compile it with usual arm-linux-gnueabi- toolchain and that puts a bleep on my bug-radar. Is that normal? Do I need a special toolchain?
I am using an old, locally built toolchain that identifies itself as gcc version 4.3.4 (crosstool-NG-hg_default@1471_4a88cb9bfe8f)
I can take a look at this using a newer toolchain - however, I am in the process of moving, so this will probably take some weeks.
What prebuilt toolchain should I try?
I was more curious if it's possible for me myself to build these. And if so, can that be done with usual arm-linux-gnueabi- toolchain? Or do I need special armeb toolchain compiled in some special way?
I've built a new armeb xscale toolchain available here if you want to try it. https://sourceforge.net/projects/bhundven.u/files/armeb-unknown-linux-gnue abi.tar.bz2/download
I built it on x86_64. I can build it on 32-bit intel if you don't have an x86_64 build box. Let me know.
$ ct-ng show-armeb-unknown-linux-gnueabi armeb-unknown-linux-gnueabi [L X] OS : linux-3.2.8 Companion libs : gmp-5.0.2 mpfr-3.1.0 ppl-0.11.2 cloog-ppl-0.15.11 mpc-0.9 libelf-0.8.13 binutils : binutils-2.22 C compiler : gcc-4.6.3 (C,C++,Fortran,Java,Objective-C,Objective-C++) C library : eglibc-2_15 Tools : dmalloc-5.5.2 duma-2_5_15 gdb-7.3a ltrace-0.5.3 strace-4.6
Ok, that's good. But can someone please answer my question (now there are two)?
1) Does usual arm-linux-gnueabi- toolchain work? (possibly if I use some switch to toggle arm core endianness) 2) Do I need any special options to build the toolchain?
Best regards, Marek Vasut
