RE: Building static core C compiler fails (SH4 config)

["Flaig, Patrick" <Patrick dot Flaig at bdt dot de>]

Hi all,

I tried some new things. 
I have a working build script for a SH4 toolchain (from a colleague) as
a reference. 
And I'm using only 2 patches to build the toolchain on my machine. 

Now I tried to disable the patches from crosstool-ng and enabled only to
use my patches.
The strange thing was, that crosstool-ng ignored this setting and used
all patches (crosstool-ng patches and my patches).

I have attached the patches I used and the build script. 
I do not really know where crosstool-ng and my buildscript differs and
which influence the difference has. 

I only observed a difference in the way the sysroot is created.

Maybe someone of you will find the problem with crosstool-ng and
building a SH4 toolchain.

Thanks.

Patrick

Patrick,

The same happens here: st-dummy.c won't compile, but it seems to be
harmless for the core compiler... But still, it is annoying to see
errors...

Unfortunately, Super-H does not receive many attention from my part, as
I do not have Super-H at hand. The code was contributed about a year
ago, and it used to work. Not so recently, I made so huge changes in
crosstool-NG, and could no longer build any toolchain for Super-H.
Lacking a reference sample, I just decided to let go, and keep Super-H
guarded with EXPERIMENTAL.
Which just means what it means: EXPERIMENTAL, potentially broken
stuff...

I just tried a few builds myself, but could not make it finish either.

I'm afraid I can't help much on that side. Maybe if you have some time,
try to see what the buildroot or ptx-dist guys are doing for Super-H. If
they have special handling, patches missing in crosstool-NG, etc...

Also, try to with the crosstool-NG SVN trunk, as the 1.2 series is in
maintenance now, and will not see many changes, while trunk is actively
evolving.
