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

[Flaig, Patrick]

Hello Yann!
Hello All!

Which trunk revision should work with the sh4 example config? 
I tried to compile the crosscompiler but still getting an error during install of static c core compiler (see attached log).

I'm using trunc revision 1120.

Patrick

I've had a look at those. There seems to be no noticeable procedural
difference...

Ha. Fixed! Thank you for pointing this!

And the way the kernel headers are installed seems really weird. You
shouldn't be needing a kernel config to install headers...

A glibc patch for the Alpha architecture touched the SuperH files. Fixed.
Added a few new SuperH patches to fic _build_ breakage. Not run-tested.
Could you check that they are correct:
http://ymorin.is-a-geek.org/svn/crosstool-ng/trunk/patches/glibc/2.7/240-sh-lowlevellock-asm.patch
http://ymorin.is-a-geek.org/svn/crosstool-ng/trunk/patches/glibc/2.7/250-sh-chop-linux-version.patch
http://ymorin.is-a-geek.org/svn/crosstool-ng/trunk/patches/glibc/2.7/260-sh-syscall-error-path.patch
http://ymorin.is-a-geek.org/svn/crosstool-ng/trunk/patches/glibc/2.7/270-sh-fix-procfs.patch
http://ymorin.is-a-geek.org/svn/crosstool-ng/trunk/patches/glibc/2.7/280-sh-fix-kernel-headers-location.patch

Most notably, the #270 is pure-chance and is highly dubious: it deals with the
registers definitions (which I absolutely have no idea about, except for
looking at the kernel code...)

With those changes, I managed to _build_ an sh4 C-only toolchain.
Could you look at the svn trunk, and comment and improve upon the
sh4-unknown-linux-gnu sample, please?

Notes:
 - gcc-4.3 won't build
 - I have no idea wether SuperH has an FPU or not, and thus if soft float
   should be activated
 - no tools are yet built

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
