Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH] package/gcc: fix powerpc toolchain issues
Date: Thu, 10 Aug 2023 06:32:52 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ZNRodM7hgvo2nT4T@waldemar-brodkorb.de> (raw)

Some of the powerpc CPU's supported by Buildroot are dual mode CPU's,
which means 32 Bit and 64 Bit mode is supported.

See here the gcc documentation for details about --with-cpu-32:
https://gcc.gnu.org/install/configure.html

See here for a discussion on the musl mailinglist about the error:
https://inbox.vuxu.org/musl/20220722162900.GB1320090@port70.net/

Thanks to Thomas Petazzoni for pointing me to the gcc docs and the
--with-cpu-32 option via IRC.
