New IRC Channel for Linaro Toolchain Working Group

by Matthew Gretton-Dann

All, During Connect the suggestion was made that each working group should have its own IRC Channel for discussions and topics relating to the group in particular (as opposed to #linaro which is 'generic' Linaro conversations). Therefore I have just set up #linaro-tcwg on Freenode for the Toolchain Working Group. This channel is public and open to anyone who wants to talk with the TCWG group about anything toolchain related. Thanks, Matt -- Matthew Gretton-Dann Toolchain Working Group, Linaro

ABE - bug in copy_gcc_libs_to_sysroot() while building native toolchain for aarch64

by Virendra Kumar Pathak

Hi Linaro Toolchain Group, I am building a native toolchain for aarch64 with below configurations: --build=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu --host=aarch64-linux-gnu --target=aarch64-linux-gnu. In copy_gcc_libs_to_sysroot() - which copy libgcc.a to sysroot, current implementation try to find the absolute path of libgcc.a as below : libgcc="`${local_builds}/destdir/${host}/bin/${target}-gcc -print-file-name=${libgcc}` But above line will not execute (i.e. gcc -print-file-name) on x86_64 as the toolchain is native toolchain for aarch64-linux-gnu. Thus a infinite loop will be created in copy command i.e. copying directory x in x. however, when I hard coded the libgcc.a path in my machine (as below), everything went fine. libgcc="/home/vpathak/arm/toolchain/build_abe_new/builds/destdir/aarch64-linux-gnu/lib/gcc/aarch64-linux-gnu/5.1.1/libgcc.a" I think this is a bug in ABE build infrastructure. Thanks. -- with regards, Virendra Kumar Pathak

* TCWG-806, aarch64 remote debugging multi-arch support. [4/10] Patches are done. Need to test them and polish them. Fix various multi-arch issues when --wrapper is used in GDBserver. Patches are pushed in to mainline. Could you describe this activity in more detail? Is the goal here to support mixed aarch32/aarch64 in the same GDB binary and detect the change at runtime? Thanks. -Duane
