Hi,
Thank you, that made me think about what was installed on my sysroot, which was
part of the problem (some dev packages had to be added). I added some packages
to the sysroot and got the build further along, but for some reason there is
still a failure to find pthread.h from standard include locations. Even though
all of the pthread dev is installed on both host and sysroot,making pthread.h
available in both "/usr/include" of the host and "sysroot/usr/include" of the
sysroot, I keep getting missing headers. The "--includedir=" has no effect.
One sample configure I'm trying, where "/mnt" is a loopback mounted clone of
the aarch64 system:
${SRC}/configure --prefix=/usr/local/aarch64-linux-gnu/gcc-linaro-6.1-2016.07
--target=aarch64-linux-gnu \ --with-build-sysroot=/mnt \
--enable-languages=c,c++ \ --includedir=/mnt/usr/include
Much earlier in the build with this configuration, long before the build halts,
I see this:
cc1: error: no include path in which to search for stdc-predef.h
...I have to wonder why this is even though the compile does not halt (with
sysroot it doesn't halt here, but it seems sysroot didn't actually provide its
version of stdc-predef.h).
The build actually terminates with several missing pthread.h messages, e.g.:
In file included from
/home/build/linaro/gcc-linaro-snapshot-6.1-2016.07/libgcc/gthr.h:148:0,
from
/home/build/linaro/gcc-linaro-snapshot-6.1-2016.07/libgcc/libgcov-interface.c:27:./gthr-default.h:35:21:
fatal error: pthread.h: No such file or directory #include <pthread.h>
^compilation terminated.Makefile:883: recipe for target
'_gcov_dump.o' failedmake[2]: *** [_gcov_dump.o] Error 1
Various experiments with "--includedir" options (sysroot/usr/include, sysroot/)
in configure failed to change anything. What am I missing? Is this a configure
option I need to change? Is this sysroot missing something?
Thanks!

stdc-predef.h is a glibc header file that defines macros that the ISOC standard
requires that the compiler define by default. So gccincludes the file by
default for linux targets, unless you use-ffreestanding or -nostdinc. The real
problem here is that you areapparently trying to build a cross compiler without
glibc, and thatdoesn't work. Glibc is required for the compiler build when
buildingfor a linux target.
If you have a target OS that already has a userspace filesystem, thenyou can
create a sysroot that contains /lib, /usr/lib, /usr/include(and other library
dirs if they exist), put a copy on the machinewhere you are doing the compiler
build, and then use a --sysrootconfigure option to point at the sysroot. This
also requires thatbinutils is configured with the same --sysroot option. If you
don'tcare about the target OS, you could grab one of the sysroots that thetcwg
team builds and releases.
Alternatively, you can build gcc and glibc at the same time. This
iscomplicated, because of the circular dependencies between gcc andglibc, so it
is best to use a script. Linaro uses ABE for toolchainbuilds.
https://wiki.linaro.org/ABEBut there are other choices, like crosstools-ng and
Open Embedded.
I wouldn't recommend modifying gcc sources to work around this, asthen you will
get a compiler that doesn't fully conform to the ISO Cstandard.
