Dear All,

         Am just trying to build, xscale-elf tool chain.

For that am using
. binutils-2.18
. gcc-4.2.1

binutils compiled using the following configure options:

$ ./configure --prefix=/cygdrive/c/share/release/xscale-tools/tools --target=xs
cale-elf


And used the binaries to compile the gcc using the following configure options:

$ ./configure --target=xscale-elf --prefix=/cygdrive/c/share/release/xscale-too
ls/tools --enable-languages=c,c++ --with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld --with-newlib --w
ith-gxx-include-dir=/cygdrive/c/share/release/xscale-tools/tools/xscale-elf/inc


Once successfully built, during linking of the Test.exe after
compiling the .c files,

am facing the ERROR: saying the file compiled uses VFP instructions
but the executable linking is not...


./xscale-elf/bin/ld: ERROR: file.o uses VFP instructio
ns, whereas Test.exe does not
/cygdrive/c/share/release/xscale-tools/tools/lib/gcc/xscale-elf/4.2.1/../../../.
./xscale-elf/bin/ld: failed to merge target specific data of file cmake: ***


Please help me out, what am i missing,
and my architecture is xscale(IXP425) big-endian...

Am i have to give any special options for this, Or any pactches to do
for binutils-2.18
Or gcc-4.2.1

best regards,
srinivas.
