I need to build a GCC cross-compiler targeting i386-pc-elf. I'm running
into problems with the build on OpenBSD 6.3.
I've already successfully built a binutils-2.31.1 for i386-pc-elf.
Trying to use the GCC 4.9.4 package (as GCC 4.2 is too old to build GCC
8), my configure is:
CC=egcc CXX=eg++ ../gcc-8.2.0/configure --prefix=/usr/local/gcc-i386
--target=i386-pc-elf --with-gmp=/usr/local
And I'm just running gmake -j7. The error I get is in this build log:
https://pastebin.com/k0ygAN5t
***
/usr/bin/ld: build/genmodes.o: relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a local
symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
***
If I use the clang that's built into OpenBSD, I get a bunch of C errors
that presumably mean that you can't do it with clang. Here is the build
log: https://pastebin.com/Dv5gQ4aS
My configure for that is:
CC=clang CXX=clang ../gcc-8.2.0/configure --prefix=/usr/local/gcc-i386
--target=i386-pc-elf --with-gmp=/usr/local
Has anyone ran into this problem before, and if so, what do I need to do
to build my cross-compiler on OpenBSD? Apologies if this is not the
right place to ask.
