[Xenomai-help] build fails with "more than 10 operands in `asm'"

[Xenomai-help] build fails with "more than 10 operands in `asm'"

[Gary Wallace]

  I have tried building both xenomai 2.0.3 and 2.1-rc2 but receive the
following compilation error for both versions:

xenomai-2.0.3/skins/native/lib/task.c: In function `rt_task_send':
xenomai-2.0.3/skins/native/lib/task.c:354: more than 10 operands in `asm'

  I'm using a cross compiler (gcc 2.95.3 from
http://www.kegel.com/crosstool/), the target is ppc and the host
machine is i386 linux.  The target kernel is version 2.6.14.6 with
i-pipe version 1.1-02.

  What am I doing wrong and how can I fix this???

Thanks,
Gary

IIRC, this is a limitation of an old binutils. You may solve this by
either upgrading to a more recent binutils or split the asm block.

BTW, what is the minimum gcc/binutils version recommended by the Xenomai

project? Is it documented somewhere?

If GNU libc is okay for you and you don't depend on uClibc, you may
consider
the excellent ELDK 3.1.1 with GCC 3.3.3, or the shiny new ELDK 4.0 with 
GCC 4 [1].

xeno-info says this:


PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:$PATH
echo 'If some fields are empty or look unusual you may have an old version.'
echo 'Compare to the current minimal requirements in Documentation/Changes.'
echo ' '

I havent verified that
