Hi Ye Jun,
I have made this reply to the OpenRISC mailing list, so the wider
community can benefit from your experience.
I would not expect the version of GCC or Linux on your workstation to be
a problem for you. The native GCC (i.e. the one on your workstation) is
only used to compile the "makeconfig" step, and I don't think this is
where your listing is showing the error.
I think your problem is in the configuration. Do this as follows:
1. In the Linux directory, copy rgd_dot_config to .config:
cp rgd_dot_config .config
2. Run the configurator. This takes the .config file (created in the
previous step), modifies it, and then generates the correct include
headers for the chosen configuration.
make menuconfig ARCH=or32 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/or32/bin/or32-uclinux-
deselect the Ethernet support in the OpenRISC specific drivers. This is
done, because the Ethernet does not seem to work with the version of
Or1ksim (0.2.0) in the application note.
3. Build Linux
make vmlinux ARCH=or32 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/or32/bin/or32-uclinux-
This is not the first time the instructions on configuring Linux have
caused confusion. I shall rewrite this section when I update the
application note.
Let us know if this fixes the problem. If you still have problems,
please could you email (to the OpenRISC mailing list), the exact steps
you have used to build the complete toolchain (including the patches you
applied etc).
Best wishes,
Jeremy
