Hi all,
I'm trying to make sure that recent U-boot versions still boot on the i.MX31PDK board and have problems locating/building a toolchain based on GCC > v6 that produces working images.
The i.MX31PDK uses a ARM1136 core.
My old toolchain, which is a Code Sourcery toolchain for ARM 2014-05 with gcc 4.8.3, produces working bootloader up to and including U-Boot v2017.11. Later U-boots require GCC > v6 hence my quest for a known good ARM GCC cross compiler for the ARM11 core.
I tried the Ubuntu 18.04 provided ARM cross compiler and that does not boot, neither does toolchains I've built using crosstools-ng (GCC 6.4.0 and GCC 8.1). I haven't tried investigating where the boot stops/goes wrong.
My Ubuntu host is a 64-bit machine and the old Sourcery toolchain is compiled for x32 in case that helps.
Pointers to precompiled known good toolchains for U-boot 2018.xx and ARM11 are appreciated.
Thanks, Magnus
