[U-Boot-Users] error: invalid option `cpu=4kc

[U-Boot-Users] error: invalid option `cpu=4kc

[Jattin Dudakia]

I have following installed on my machine and want to develop a BPS for mips based board.

- eldk 3.1 mips-linux-x86
- U-Boot 1.1.1

I have setup the path to the installed eldk bins and setup the export CROSS_COMPILE to mips_4KC-.

I wanted to ensure that everything is setup correctly, so tried building the mips based boards such as purple and tb0229. In each case I get the following compile error.

mips_4KC-gcc -g  -Os   -D__KERNEL__ -DTEXT_BASE=0xB0000000 -I/home/jdudakia/u-boot-1.1.1/include -fno-builtin -ffreestanding -nostdinc -isystem /opt/eldk3.1/usr/bin/../lib/gcc-lib/mips-linux/3.3.3/include -pipe  -DCONFIG_MIPS -D__MIPS__ -mcpu=4kc -EB -mabicalls -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -c -o stubs.o stubs.c
cc1: error: invalid option `cpu=4kc'
make[1]: *** [stubs.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/jdudakia/u-boot-1.1.1/examples'
make: *** [examples] Error 2

I would appreciate it is someone can help.
Thank you in advance.

You use old source code.

Please use recent sources (top of CVS, or at least  the  snapshot  as
included with the ELDK 3.1 distribution).

Best regards,

[U-Boot-Users] error: invalid option `cpu=4kc

[Jattin Dudakia]

Thank you for responding.

I got the ISO image from the following:

/ftp/mirror/eldk/eldk/3.1/mips-linux-x86/iso
mips-2004-11-10.iso                       10-Nov-2004 08:09

This is what I have installed on my machine. Do I need something newer then this?

[U-Boot-Users] error: invalid option `cpu=4kc

[Fredrik]

Jattin,

The "cpu" option is outdated in favor of the "-march" option.  The tip
sources have changed cpu/mips/config.mk to reflect that:

  -march=4kc -mtune=4kc -Wa,-mips_allow_branch_to_undefined \
  -EB -mabicalls

(The "-mtune" option seems redundant, but shouldn't hurt anything.)

This is ok. But you wrote:

This is old U-Boot source code.

Do that, then.

My apologies, but I don't know what you mean by the following. If you can elaborate, I can correct in the future.

Again, I appreciate you help.

I got further with the latest sources, but now I get the error shown below.

See for example http://www.faqs.org/faqs/comics/xbooks/readpost/section-4.html

I don't see this problem with other MIPS  boards,  like  "purple"  or
"incaip"
