[U-Boot-Users] Can't build U-Boot 1.2.0 for AT91
Hello all,
I posted this question on at91.com, but have received no response, so I though I'd try here. I'm attempting to build a modified version of U-boot v1.2.0 and am coming across a problem during the link stage. I used Buildroot to create my toolchain with GCC v4.1.2, uClibc v0.98.2, and Linux v2.6.20. I'm using a version of the U-Boot source patched specifically for the Atmel AT91 chips (can be downloaded at http://www.at91.com/Project/Controleurs/cVisualisation.php). When I make all, I get the following error:
arm-linux-ld: ERROR: /home/alex/dev/ARM/Linux/sw/bsp/rootfs/buildroot/build_arm/staging_dir/lib/gcc/arm-linux-uclibc/4.1.2/libgcc.a(_udivdi3.o) uses hardware FP, whereas u-boot uses software FP arm-linux-ld: failed to merge target specific data of file /home/alex/dev/ARM/Linux/sw/bsp/rootfs/buildroot/build_arm/staging_dir/lib/gcc/arm-linux-uclibc/4.1.2/libgcc.a(_udivdi3.o) arm-linux-ld: ERROR: /home/alex/dev/ARM/Linux/sw/bsp/rootfs/buildroot/build_arm/staging_dir/lib/gcc/arm-linux-uclibc/4.1.2/libgcc.a(_clz.o) uses hardware FP, whereas u-boot uses software FP arm-linux-ld: failed to merge target specific data of file /home/alex/dev/ARM/Linux/sw/bsp/rootfs/buildroot/build_arm/staging_dir/lib/gcc/arm-linux-uclibc/4.1.2/libgcc.a(_clz.o) make: *** [u-boot] Error 1
Does anyone have any idea what I can do to get everything to compile and link properly. I'd like to be able to use the same toolchain to build U-Boot as I use to build Linux, but if that's not possible, any solution at all would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely, Alex Parkinson

May I ask why you did not search the archives for answers? You are supposed to do this before posting.
/home/alex/dev/ARM/Linux/sw/bsp/rootfs/buildroot/build_arm/staging_dir/lib/gcc/arm-linux-uclibc/4.1.2/libgcc.a(_udivdi3.o) uses hardware FP, whereas u-boot uses software FP
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Your toolchain used hardware FP unconditionally, whereas u-boot uses software FP.
Fix your toolchain.

Sorry, I tried to search the archives, but they were down. As it was posted on the U-Boot website that the archives are frequently down, I wasn't sure when they'd be back up, so I posted to the list.

Thanks for the advice. Any tips as to how I can fix my toolchain would be appreciated. I understand that that's a question for Buildroot users, but perhaps someone on the U-Boot list has seen this problem before.

My apologies. I didn't realize I was posting HTML as Gmail does that automatically.

I'm using Kegel arm-softfloat-linux-gnu toolchain, compiled for gcc-3.4.5-glibc-2.3.6 combination - works for at91rm9200-ek board, both u-boot 1.2.0 and Linux 2.6.16.

Fix your toolchain.
Or remove the (unneccessary) "-msoftfloat" from your "cpu/<cpu>/config.mk" file. Works for me and is much easier than "fixing" the toolchain.
My "buildroot" at ftp://at91dist:distrib@81.80.104.162/ -> AT91 third party -> Linux-host -> Source will do what you want.
Download buildroot 2007-04-20 create /tftpboot and /usr/local/arm and make sure you can write to them as an ordinary user.
$ make B=at91sam9260dfc board $ make
This will generate everything you need for running the AT91SAM9260EK from a dataflashcard (I.E SPI0.CS0). You will have to fix a few things if you want to run from a SPI0.CS1.
My U-boot 1.2.0 version does not detect NAND flash properly.
