[U-Boot] toolchain for u-boot

[Angelo Dureghello]

hi all,

i have some issues with an mcf5307 (coldfire, see my previous post of 38 Jul).

I am now suspecting of some differences in the toolchain.

Is there a specific gcc toolchain (or gcc version) required to build u-boot ?

thanks
angelo

I had good results using CodeSourcery Light (don't remember the exact version,
something from 2009) for MCF5373 and MCF54455 in early 2010.

Unfortunately I am currently not working on it any more.

Best regards,
Wolfgang

many thanks,

i have a very strange issue:

on a timer interupt i ger a vector 3 error:

_int_handler:
	// commeneted all, only rte left, exception in rte

	rte



*** Unexpected exception ***
Vector Number: 3  Format: 04  Fault Status: 4

PC: 00fe910a    SR: 00002000    SP: 00ed8af0
D0: 00002c1b    D1: 0000001b    D2: 00400000    D3: 00ee8b76
D4: ffc12d08    D5: ffffffff    D6: 00ffad57    D7: 00ee8b76
A0: 00ee8b76    A1: 00fe9604    A2: 00ee8bc6    A3: 00ffd400
A4: 00ff8167    A5: 00ffbb00    A6: 00ed8b48


there is nothing inside the interrupt handler, so there would be apparently any reason to get the exception on "rte", so my only suspect is about toolchain/compiler.

every help is welcome


Reagards,
angelo

I found something interesting:

_int_handler:
	rts

seems to work, execution return to board_init_r, even if still the command console seems locked.

_int_handler:
	rte

generate the exception above.

Seems that @ SP there is the "next" return address instead of the vector/format/status values.


Any help is really appreciated.
