can't create crtbegin.o: Invalid bfd target

2006-02-26 Thread Eric Fisher
Hello, My port is originally aimed for mytarget-elf and has been able to built to use. Now I want to use another target, mytarget-linux, just like mips-elf and mips-linux. Binutils is ok and has been installed, but when build gcc, there is such a error, /home/smj/build_gcc_linux/gcc/xgcc -B/home/s

question about default options of mips

2006-02-27 Thread Eric Fisher
Hi, I installed cross gcc3.4.4 on my linux/pc server with --target=mips-elf. When I use mips-linux-gcc to compile a c file, the assembly code will have psuedo-op used for system v.4 (e.g. .cpload). And the object file is of big endian. So I have to use flag -mno-abicalls and -EL every time. Are the

But, they told me that mips-elf is for 'no-opsys' target, and does't support glibc. So if I want to use gcc for operantion system and glibc, should I use mipsel-linux? Thanks 27 Feb 2006 22:55:48 -0800, Ian Lance Taylor : > "Eric Fisher" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]&g

how to run shared file on simulator

2006-03-02 Thread Eric Fisher
Hi, I've ported gcc to mytarget-linux version. The object file compiled now are shared one. My current simulator is able to run static executable program and just translate binary code one by one. I know shared file needs dynamic linker to load. So I'd like to know can I run shared file on my sim?

question about treelang modification and debug

2006-04-11 Thread Eric Fisher
hi, You know that treelang prescribes the function prototype must give the storage class type explicitly, for an example, "external_definition int add(int arg1, int arg2);" I'd like to know how to modify the parse.y to let the storage type can be implicitly and the default type is external_definiti

small changes of gdbinit.in

I guess that the argument of the user defined command in gdbinit.in should be $arg0. Also, due to the changes of the structure tree node, ptc should be, define ptc -output (enum tree_code) $.common.code +output (enum tree_code) $arg0.base.code echo \n end Here's the patch, --- gcc/gdbinit.in
