Re: [ptxdist] Not reproducable bugs on compiling OSELAS Toolchain
Hi,
* Andreas Bießmann andr...@biessmann.de [2012-02-25 09:21]:
Next you will need some GNU tools like coreutils [1], gawk [2], sed [3],
tar [4], flex [5] and bison/yacc [6]. Remaining requirements of ptxdist
should be sufficient by OS X delivered software.
flex and bison can be used from Apple (at least I have /usr/bin/flex and
/usr/bin/bison in my $PATH). You also need 'md5sum' (macports has the
'md5sha1sum' package). And also GNU ar because of the 'f' option, but I
want to check if it's really needed before sending a patch to check for
GNU ar.
If you got the required tools you can start using ptxdist source to
build it for your host. There comes another requirement to mind while
writing this. You will need ncurses[9] for building the kconf tools in
ptxdist. Ptxdists configure will search the required tools and complain
about missing ones.
I'm not sure if the ncurses from Apple is sufficient, but at least
/usr/lib/libncuses.dylib is there. Apart from building kconfig, ptxdist
uses its own host-ncurses, though.
Bernhard Walle started a generic arm bsp [10] (targeted on beagle-board
and clones). He uses ptxdist with OS X too, therefore this is a good
place to go for OS X adoptions of ptxdist bsp.
I would have called it 'playground'. :) I just checked that it builds
with ptxdist-2012.02 without any additional patches.
The only remaining patch that is in the queue of Michael is the
localedef stuff. If you need it now, you can take it from
https://bitbucket.org/bwalle/localedef/overview (darwin-fixes branch)
or as patch from
https://bitbucket.org/bwalle/ptxdist-vetero/src/770a9a83af73/patches/localedef-eglibc-2.11.90-ptx1.
Please note that the ptxdist-vetero project doesn't build currently on
Mac OS because of the mtd tools. I need to fix that when I have time.
('ptxdist go' works but 'ptxdist images' will fail.)
Regards,
Bernhard

Re: [ptxdist] Not reproducable bugs on compiling OSELAS Toolchain
Hi Andreas, hmm… sounds interesting. I did not know that it can be used under OS X. But i have to install a lot of other stuff under Lion first, right? Where can i get the necessary informations on setting up Lion for PDXdist? I would try it under Lion in a VM to protect my running system. Thank you!

Ubuntu is running under VMware Fusion on a MacBookPro i7 Early 2011. so why don't use your host system if you already run OS X? Which OS is recommended for compiling the toolchain or what can I do to make it work? Lion as host with OSELAS.Toolchain-2011.11.1 works for me with arm-v4t-linux-gnueabi, arm-v5te-linux-gnueabi and arm-cortexa8-linux-gnueabi. It would be great to have more testers for ptxdist stuff on OS X host. So if you do not insist on Linux host feel free to try it. But keep in mind: OS X support is something alpha, not all functions tested on Linux host already tested on OS X host and there may be some issues. regards Andreas Bießmann -- ptxdist mailing list ptxdist@pengutronix.de -- ptxdist mailing list ptxdist@pengutronix.de

How do you build the toolchains, so what are the commands you invoke? Did you set some special environment variables before? Greets Alex -- »With the first link, the chain is forged.
