Jerry;
I did a search through the u-boot mailing list archives as I was having
problems compiling for my MIPS AU1550. Ironically, you seemed to be
having problems and made the exact fixes that I did in order to get as
far as you did in the compile process.
However, my progress has come to a standstil as has the thread bearing
your problem. I was hoping you could shed some light on the situation if
you've made any progress as of 2004-01-30 19:01
Cheers,
-=Chris

Could you give a more detailed description of your problems?
I had some problems finding working versions of gcc/binutils, but
finally succeeded with binutils 2.13 and gcc 3.2.3.
Either way, u-boot does not yet run on the Au1550 (except for here).
This depends on - among other things - differences in the dram
configuration registers (please complain privately to me daily about
this until i post the necessary patches to this list :)
regards

Thanks so much for your quick reply. I was going to do some work on this
board as well independently in attempt to see if I can't get the machine to
boot from an ide HDD. I'll keep bugging you for the patches offline,
but for the benefit of everyone else I'll elaborate a little more here:
Cross-compiling from x86 using: a custom built (crosstool) toolchain
gcc3.3.2-glibc2.3.2-binutils-2.15; I get this error:

I've seen other people compiling for the Au1x00 series have this similar
problem.
Not unsurprisingly while compiling natively with a similar toolchain:
gcc-3.2.3,glibc-2.3.2,binutils-2.15 I get the same errors.
I know my toolchain is not BAD as I can perfectly build and execute the
resulting kernel; however, it may not be compatible with they way things
are done in u-boot.
Perhaps Wolfgang or the people at DENX could put some input into their
toolchain version(s). I suppose I should just download it and check it out.
But I would really like to be in control of my own toolchain.
Cheers,

The current version (3.0) of the ELDK does not support little-endian
MIPS systems; the next version (3.1, to be released soon) will
support it. It's based on GCC-3.3.3, glibc 2.3.1-51a and binutils
2.14. I have no problems compiling MIPS code with it (compile-clean
for all U-Boot boards, actyually tested for MIPS on INCA-IP and
XXS1500).
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

That's great. Hoping I'll be able to use your patches against what I
have so I can keep just one cross-compiler for kernel/u-boot building.
Leif: I've had some much better success switching to this toolchain:
gcc-3.2.3-glibc-2.2.3-binutils-2.13
However, now I'm getting the following error when building. I know it looks
long and NASTY, but it basically amounts to an undefined reference.
I was hoping you might know the solution.
Also, Yes, I know ld segfaults which is very bad and probably indicates a
broken toolchain...sigh...I hope I don't get spanked for that! The undefined
reference does come before the segfault though.

If ld segfaults, it _is_ brooken. Any segfaulting application is broken.
Now that you know that you are running a broken tool, you should
forget about any other error messages it might report - they might be
completely bogus.
Fix your toolchain first.

He'd heard her use that sweet, innocent tone of voice before. It
meant that, pretty soon, there was going to be trouble.
