| Cross Toolchain—Linux - Debian |
Cross Toolchain | 4 |
| |
The next step in building a Linux system for running on Intel XScale® microarchitecture is to generate a cross-toolchain for building the kernel and applications from the IA Linux host. Currently, we use a toolchain built using the crosstool build scripts (http://kegel.com/crosstool). We currently build for the armv5l-linux target.
After the latest version of the script is downloaded a couple changes need to be made:
1.Edit the arm-xscale.datfile to change the following line: TARGET=arm-xscale-linux-gnu
To TARGET=armv5l-linux
2.Edit the demo-arm-xscale.shto select which versions of gcc and glibc are to be used. Comment out or remove all of the statements starting with "eval `cat" and replace them with the following statement:
eval `cat arm-xscale.dat gcc-3.4.3-glibc-2.3.5.dat` sh all.sh --notest
Change the RESULTS_TOP variable to the directory where the tools are to be installed (the default is "/opt/crosstool")
After the changes are made the demo-arm-xscale.shscript needs to be run. Next, add the /opt/ crosstool/bin (or the path where the tools were built) to your PATH variable.
