[Linux-ia64] Announce: IA-64 cross compiler on IA-32 available

[Khalid Aziz]

I recently built the latest version of IA-64 cross compiler on IA-32
with all of the patches that have been posted on this mailing list. I
have made the binaries available at
<ftp://puffin.external.hp.com/pub/ia64/gcc-2.96-ia64-000717-snap001117-build2.tar.gz>.
The compiler is configured to be installed under /opt/ia64. I have built
and tested kernels with it. I have also built a few applications which
worked. Let me know if anything is missing from this package.

This version of gcc invokes 'as' without a path name so it picks up the
standard ia32 assembler instead of the cross assembler.  This is
strange, it invokes 'cc1' with the correct path but not 'as'.

Ignore previous mail.  It was a directory permission problem, several
directories unpack with no execute permission for other.  Q&D fix.

  find /opt/ia64/ -type d | xargs chmod a+x

Thanks for finding the problem. I have fixed the directory permissions
and uploaded the new tar file at
<ftp://puffin.external.hp.com/pub/ia64/gcc-2.96-ia64-000717-snap001117-build3.tar.gz>

Did the applications you built actually run? I compiled hello world
but it wouldn't run on TurboLinux release 000828 English Frontier (Burning
Man) because the cross compiler linked it with /lib/ld-linux-ia64.so.2
(which points to ld-2.2.so), but the os has /lib/ld-linux-ia64.so.1
(points to ld-2.1.3.so, which is in glibc-2.1.3).

Which os issue are you using? Since most machines out there are
still glibc-2.1.3, could you perhaps recompile for that (or make your
src tree and build instructions available and I'll do it?)

thanks

I apologize. I should have mentioned that the libraries in that build
are from TurboLinux 1123 release. I can make the sources and build
instructions available. Instructions are just in my head right now. I
will write them down and send an email when I have put them up on a web
page.

I have placed the instructions for building the cross-compiler at
<ftp://puffin.external.hp.com/pub/ia64/xgcc_build_instructions>. Please
let me know if you find any errors.
