I have removed the "zlib" folder from "gcc-linaro-4.8-2014.03.tar.xz" tarball, the compiler is also using zlib-1.2.5 statically linked, and thats permit compile the Linaro toolchain.

Hello,
I have a problem building gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf
toolchain for my x86_64 system. I download crosstool-ng (v1.13) and
toolchain source code (4.8-2014.03) from
http://releases.linaro.org/14.03/components/toolchain/binaries. I use
the example configuration linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf (obtained from
ct-ng list-samples) and modify some entries using menuconfig option,
like the local tarballs directory (pointing to downloaded toolchains
source code directory) and the prefix directory (custom directory output).
This is the problem during the execution of "ct-ng build" command:

Some idea of what's the problem?

hi,
For building arm64 kernel, I tried all toolchain released from
http://releases.linaro.org/latest/components/toolchain/binaries/
But it complained about some instructions bad:
/home/work/linux/arch/arm64/include/asm/irqflags.h: Assembler
messages:
/home/work/linux/arch/arm64/include/asm/irqflags.h:49: Error: no

Could anyone tell how to solve it? thanks!
== Progress==
TCWG-435 needless busy-wait in lowlevellock.c (3/10)
* Patches ready, testing a bit slow & fiddly

* Learned to use Lava
* Found some helpful internal docs
* Managed to tweak the code slightly
== Misc ==

(Public) holiday 2/10
== Plan ==
Stop worrying and follow the general curve of the noisy benchmarks
(But also try to convince Maxim's spec scripts + lava to generate some
less noisy results)
Another public holiday next Monday
== Progress ==
* GDB reverse debugging on aarch64

* Launchpad bugs: (2/10)
o LP #1169164 : including signal.h exposes various PSR_MODE #defines
- Discussed and implemented a fix
- Validation on-going
* Misc:
o Cbuildv1 baby-sitting (1/10)
o Various meetings (1/10).
o Resolved cards :
- TCWG-343. Make LRA the default for the ARM backend

== Progress ==
PGO - AArch64 (TCWG-179) (4/10)
* Completed SPEC2006 runs ( -O3 + PGO) in chroot + qemu-arm64-saucy
with Linaro branch(4.9).
* Perlbench train run failed, issue with qemu.
* DealII train runs failed due to system libstdc++.so.6 not compatible
with GCC 4.9.
Changing the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the libstdc++.so.6 that
gets built along with GCC 4.9 solves the problem.
* CPU2000 runs are completed my maxim so functional testing of PGO for
spec benchmarks completed.
* Wating on Arm64 hardware to benchmark SPEC2000 and SPEC2006 and
compare against the PGO runs for x86.
Misc (2/10)
* Setup arm64-trusty chroot and built GCC 4.9 compiler
* Maxim 1-1 discussions and set up opennx client
* Checked libssp patch upstream status
* Read about gcc debug counters.
* Upgrade laptop to Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Short week (22nd and 23rd leave (4/10))
== Plan ==
* Bug fixing.
== Issues==
* Waiting on hardware to Benchmark SPEC2006 PGO runs in hardware.
