I'm trying to compile the latest version of uClinux on ARM and the multitude of errors that I'm getting leads me to believe that this architecture simply is not supported anymore, hence the first question - what happened to ARM support and uClinux in general ? Last time I checked, i.e. about two years ago, it was probably the most popular embedded distro, at least for ARM - and now it does not even compile !
You are wrong, it does compile. I have an automated build system that builds approximately 150 board/kernel/lib combinations(*) each night. Every release is run through this. It compiles GDB/ARMulator with linux-2.4.x and linux-2.6.x kernels and both little and big endian and the GDB/Skyeye target with 2.4.x and 2.6.x kernels (using my arm-linux- toolchains). (* of course the whole uClinux-dist tree has way more than 150 possible combinations of board/kernel/lib. With the resources I have that is about as much as I can cover in a single day. I have just chosen a variety of interesting targets on a variety of CPU types to test compile for).
I will send a separate email with compilation errors, I just think that it would be better to have a separate thread for this general discussion. Provided there is anybody out there interested in discussing ARM, which I seriously doubt.
Are you serious? The only conclusion I can draw from your problems is that people who choose to use various other toolchains with the uClinux-dist don't choose to send patches back to make them work properly with the dist.
