Hi,
Do you guys have a suggested cross toolchain? I want to use glibc
instead of uclibc, so in the buildroot default supported options, it
left only Sourcery CodeBench (SCB). But SCB seems not a very completed
toolchain, when I use it to compile some of my applications, I found it
missed with some definitions (such as RLIM_*) which should normally
appear in a standard header file.
Then I tried, Linaro, but it seems that it do not well support my armv5t
core. Anyway, I run with errors after configured it with buildroot.
So, is there a free ARM cross toolchains which is in one hand workable
with buidroot and on the other hand contains all the necessary things
that normally required to build applications.
Thanks in advance!

I've had good luck with building my own using crosstool-ng[1].

It is easy to install and build. And the worlds foremost expert is a major
contributor here (Yann).

That's what I've always done.

Dear Woody Wu,

Sourcery CodeBench toolchains usually work fine. Could you point to
specific problems with them, i.e which package fails to build, with
which version of the Sourcery CodeBench? Most likely, if your
application fails to build with a Sourcery CodeBench toolchain, it's
because your application doesn't #include the right header files.

The Linaro toolchains are built for ARMv7, so the C library they
contain will only work on ARMv7+ processors.
Best regards,
Thomas
