Re: GSOC POSIX Compliance: Stuck trying to build Newlib

[Matthew Joyce]

Ok, thanks!

I'm about to sign off for dinner,  but I'll send the patch (with
disclaimer) tonight.  So since the code fails to compile, I need to
start making some changes. Do I need to rebuild the rtems tool chain
each time? I'm averaging about 1.33 hours on that :-( . Is that where
some of the scripts you sent help out?

Sorry we didn't connect tonight, but please let me know if there's
another day this week you could chat!

Thanks so much for everybody's patience and support!

Sincerely,

Matt

For newlib, there should be various libc.a and libm.a files in the build
directory.

Use find to locate them: find . -name libc.a

And use "nm" to find out if the symbol is there.

sparc-rtems6-nm .../libc.a

You can save that output or pipe it to less.

Note: paths need to be adjusted to the files.

[Matthew Joyce]

I hate to ask, but where should the build binaries be if "make all"
was actually successful?

Thanks!

Or use the same prefix as you did with the RSB installed tools and begin to
add a test to RTEMS for the method.

When you add to newlib and need a test in RTEMS for that functionality, you
end up with a pair of patches. First the newlib one has to be merged, then
your test can be added to RTEMS.

I make works then there is no need to run make install it just copies the build 
binaries to the root folders.

If make is build with the changes u made and the symbols that you added appear 
in the binaries you generated.
Then congratulations :) 
Now you just need to test those changes in the RSB to test they don’t break 
anything in the RTEMS ecosystem.

Re: GSOC POSIX Compliance: Stuck trying to build Newlib

[Matthew Joyce]

Hi Dr. Joel,

I used the following, based on Vaibhav's blog:

$ export PATH=$HOME/development/rtems/6/bin:$PATH

$ ../newlib-cygwin/configure --target=sparc-rtems6 --disable-shared
--disable-nls --enable-werror --enable-newlib-supplied-syscalls
--enable-interwork --enable-multilib --with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld

When I enter "type sparc-rtems6-gcc" (I hope I'm understanding that
correctly!), I get sparc-rtems6-gcc is hashed...and then my PATH.

Thanks again!

V/r,

Matt

The target should be sparc-rtems6 when you configure newlib.
This should mean invoking the script like "./j-newlib sparc-rtems6"


And the RTEMS tools should be in your PATH.

type sparc-rtems6-gcc

To be sure.

Re: GSOC POSIX Compliance: Stuck trying to build Newlib

[Matthew Joyce]

Hi Dr. Joel,

I tried that in newlib/libc and there were at least no errors.
(Nothing leading me to believe it was successful either!)

However I still got the same error when I sudo make install.
(sparc-rtems-ranlib: command not found) (among others!)

Thanks again!

Sincerely,

Matt

Re: GSOC POSIX Compliance: Stuck trying to build Newlib

[Joel Sherrill]

Does adding --no-recursive and running it only from the directory you
touched a build system file in help?

It is regenerating a lot you don't want to touch anyway.

Re: GSOC POSIX Compliance: Stuck trying to build Newlib

[Matthew Joyce]

Hi Eshan,

Thanks very much for your follow up! Ok, I see now that if I go into
development/newlib/newlib-cygwin/newlib and run autoreconf -fvi with
the v2.69 using the PATH that Dr. Joel just showed, it starts to run.
It always eventually exits with an error though. (please see attached
.txt). I hope you can read that...I used the command "script" to
output everything to a text file.

Do you have any idea where I might be going wrong?

Thank you!

Sincerely,

Matt

Re: GSOC POSIX Compliance: Stuck trying to build Newlib

[Matthew Joyce]

Hi Vaibhav,

Thanks very much for your note!  Fantastic job on your blogs. I read
the entry on managing the two versions of autoconf and have been
trying to follow it carefully. Could you please see the attached txt
file?

I'm in development/newlib/newlib-cygwin. I get the error where it
tells me to use exactly autoconf 2.64 and not 2.69. I change the $PATH
to make sure it is checking the opt/autoconf-2.64/bin first.

I check the autoconf version and confirm that it is now using 2.64.
But then when I try to run autoreconf -fvi, I get the same error as I
had yesterday.

Do you have any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks again!

Sincerely,

Matt

Exactly. I was wondering the same when I saw his output of 'echo $PATH'.
Matthew, the newlib and autoconf relationship is a bit messy. But you
can simplify it if you use $PATH carefully.
Have a look at this
https://medium.com/my-gsoc-2019-journey/how-to-handle-two-versions-of-autoconf-b1e28de8617b,
the path should expand and should point to the correct binaries.

The blog should give you an idea of how the $PATH works and how it
should be modified.

Re: GSOC POSIX Compliance: Stuck trying to build Newlib

[Joel Sherrill]

@RTEMS_TOOLS_BIN@ should have been replaced with the real directory where
your RTEMS tools are located. Something like this:

$ export PATH=${HOME}/rtems-work/tools/6/bin:$PATH

And to check you have the PATH right, do something like this:

$ type sparc-rtems6-gcc
sparc-rtems6-gcc is /home/joel/rtems-work/tools/6/bin/sparc-rtems6-gcc

Hi matt
It would work if run inside newlib instead of newlib-cygwin
run command inside of ../newlib-cygwin/newlib
instead of ../newlib-cygwin

Just a note, it's more efficient to capture your terminal dump into a
text file and attach that, rather than put a screenshot up.

Re: GSOC POSIX Compliance: Stuck trying to build Newlib

[Matthew Joyce]

Hi Gentlemen,

Thanks very much for your quick replies!

I just tried both, but perhaps I'm misinterpreting your suggestions.
(Could you please see the attached commands / errors!)

Eshan,

I did see that link, but it wasn't clear to me what the solution was...Sorry!

Sincerely,

Matt

Hi Matt,
Try running the command with autoconf version 2.69 that's shipped with
RTEMS in the rtems bin
That works as well.

Also From a quick google search this is what I found :

No. I suspect your PATH should have the autoconf version you want to
use at the head of your PATH. I tried this with the RTEMS autoconf at
the front of my PATH and it worked.

export PATH=@RTEMS_TOOLS_BIN@:${PATH}

It was changing way too many files. I would toss any changes that are
outside the directory you are working on.

If you are not adding or deleting a file, you don't have to do this. This
is only needed when the set of files and/or directories changes.
