Re: How to start porting to a new ARCHITECTURE?
Hello David, Am 2007-09-17 19:46:20, schrieb David Given: You've got two major tasks ahead of you: - - port gcc OK, it seems that parts of gcc went used under Windows... Maybe it will easy to port it native to Linux. - - port the kernel Since it is a All-In-On-Chip, there is not realy much hardware support needed. Floppy, CF-Disks as external controlers, USB is On-Chip same for LAN, serial, ... - - cross-compile a basic userland :-/ For the former, you'll need to write a new gcc backend targeting your architecture, and then add support to binutils to allow programs to be linked. This is not easy. gcc's innards tend to drive people mad. While reading a little bit the gcc documentation, I am realy confuse WHERE to start and HOW! Once you have a compiler, you can then port the kernel --- this will require development hardware with a good debugger (or, preferably, a reliable emulator with built-in debugger support). You'll be wading neck-deep in the inside of the kernel, although I gather it's not as bad as it used to be these days. Now you have both a compiler and a kernel, you can use your compiler to generate a userland --- as set of basic binaries to get your system up and running --- and then boot your new system. This isn't too difficult, although cross-compiling on gcc has its own horrors. Once you've got it reliably self-hosted, you're most of the way there --- setting up a basic Debian port is relatively straightforward. Self-Hosted is my target since I have had MANY horrors with cross-compiling I'd suggest looking up a gcc and linux-kernel mailing list and asking there for more detailed info. OK, I am on the LKM, but do you know a suitable gcc MAILINGLIST?

At first you should check what is already available. I wrote a gcc backend for a small RISC core during my internship. They told me, they have an assembler. But it only was a hackish perl script. And the functionality of ld and ar was not implemented at all. So I started with implementing as, ld and ar. Half a year later, everything worked fine and there was only one bug in the port I knew of. But I didn't implement stuff like floating point. Of course, to get a compiler which is able to compile itself more work is needed. And after that you can start porting Linux... Daniel signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Having never done it myself, take this with a grain of salt, but my
understanding is that you should really only use the cross-complied
system to bootstrap your port to the point where you can recompile
it all natively, then use the resulting native system to recomplie
it all again, just to be 100% sure. From there, you have the hard
part out of the way (hopefully) and can focus on the usual
arch-specific bugs in your desired applications.
