[parisc-linux] gcc-3.2 experimental debs

[parisc-linux] gcc-3.2 experimental debs

[Randolph Chung]

I've uploaded an experimental gcc-3.2 debian package to:

ftp://ftp.parisc-linux.org/unofficial-debs/gcc-3.2_20020417-1_hppa.deb 

for people who feel adventurous and wants to try. As the name suggests
it's built from gcc-3.2 cvs from two days ago. The deb is unfortunately
quite large (26M) because it also contains binutils bits and has
c/c++/fortran/objc compilers enabled.

The regression test results are looking quite good, and at least on the
two cases I've tried the functions-sections problems are fixed.

The package installs into /usr/local, and I want to stress here
that these are only for experimental use and are not part of the
official debian release.

Having said that, try them out and let us know how it works out!

Last but not least, thanks Dave for all your efforts! gcc-3.2 looks
really quite a bit better than 3.0.x

Hi Randolph,

I try my hown gcc-3.2 (+ binutils, glibc) against kernel 2.4.18-pa19 
(not yet take the risc with pa20).

It compiles as well as with gcc3.0.x. It boots also but as soon as I try 
to connect it remotly with telnet or ssh (I forget to test ftp) the 
system crash:
"Stack pointer and cr30 do not correspond!
Dumping virtual address stack instead

Dumping Stack from ... to ...:

...

[those tree line seems to be repeated infinitely. well after 5 minutes I 
had to unplug the power supply to reboot]

Humm as it appends as well with telnet as ssh I suspect a inetd problem?

Any idea?

Thanks,
	Joel

PS: I will try your dpkg asap

I'd bet on gcc-3.2 miscompiling something in the network part of the kernel,
personally.

if you still feel adventurous, check out the kdb cvs branch of the
kernel and you'll at least be able to tell where it crashed... :-)

Yes I will also try (and find out howto use)

Tested today.

Happens in the 3.1 main branch aswell (don't remember it previously happening).
Maybe I shouldn't be recommending the use of 3.1 as a cross compiler? ;)

I'll kdb on a serial tommorow morning and see what is causing it to die.

Oddly enough, I run diskless systems and they run off NFS perfectly fine...
so everything can't be that broke.

I also notice it on 3.1 about two mount ago (that is why I do another try with 3.2)

I would also to do so. But I had the bad idea to co the last gcc release
(yesterday and today) to rebuild the toolchain.
But gcc build seems to be broken (step 4.2 of your procedure):

gcc -c -DIN_GCC    -g -O2 -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes
-Wmissing-prototypes   -DHAVE_CONFIG_H    -I. -Ijava
-I/GNU-Dev/parisc-linux/src/gcc/gcc -I/GNU-Dev/parisc-linux/src/gcc/gcc/java
-I/GNU-Dev/parisc-linux/src/gcc/gcc/config
-I/GNU-Dev/parisc-linux/src/gcc/gcc/../include
/GNU-Dev/parisc-linux/src/gcc/gcc/java/parse.c -o java/parse.o
/tmp/ccj2Nlrs.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccj2Nlrs.s:148746: Error: Field out of range [-262144..262143] (-263392).
make[1]: *** [java/parse.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/GNU-Dev/parisc-linux/build/gcc/gcc'
make: *** [all-gcc] Error 2

Last week co did not try to build any java.
Any idea or work-around?

Joel

PS1: about step 4.2 of your howto-xc, I notice a small difference between html
and pdf (in html you use gcc option "enable-shared" in pdf "disable-shared").
But this not the cause of the above problem.

PS2: I also make an apt-get dist-upgrade (with ftp.de.debian.org) so that native
gcc is now 3.0.4-5 (I think it was already installed last week)

"make bootstrap".

Both the HTML and PDF version are the same (just double checked).

http://www.baldric.uwo.ca/~carlos/HOWTO-Parisc/index.html
http://www.baldric.uwo.ca/~carlos/HOWTO-Parisc/HOWTO-Building_PARISC-LINUX_CrossCompiler.pdf

In section 4.2 you are bootstraping the C compiler without glibc
so you must use --disable-shared.

In section 4.5 you have already built glibc and you can turn
shared support back on with --enable-shared.

c.

p.s. The HTML and PDF do have some formatting differences...
     I'll get around to making them look similar later :}
     Dang... just noticed I missed one of the path changes in
     the pdf...

Yes you have right (as it is my html which was wrong I do have forgot to
'reload' the page). Sorry for confusion.

Thanks also for explanation and attention.

Forget. The actual problem was again typo: in configure step I type
'enable-langages=c' in place of 'enable-languages=c' (lack of a u between g & a).

Sorry for mistakes.
