Usually, all the Sourcery CodeBench toolchain have a document in share/doc//pdf/getting-started.pdf with many details about the toolchain. Otherwise: * nios-linux-gcc -v * nios-linux-gdb -v * find . -name 'ld-*.so' will identify which ld-2.xx.so, which will tell you the version of glibc > > Why do you want to support two patchlevels of the same base version? > > > > Not sure, actually.

You can support multiple versions, but not multiple patchlevel of the same version, because it's silly. Since I know you know how kernel versions work, what you did is like supporting 3.10.6 and 3.10.7: it's pointless, 3.10.7 is basically the same as 3.10.6 with a few additional fixes. Of course, supporting both 3.9 and 3.10 might make sense. Look at the other Sourcery Codebench toolchain entries in Buildroot. We support multiple versions, but not multiple patchlevel of the same version. Thanks!
