The specific issue I'm having is for our 64-bit part that still uses a 32-bit u-boot. Not sure the best approach really is... I've tried utilizing multilib by adding the following to my u-boot recipe, but it's just hacky... DEPENDS_e5500-64b_append = " lib32-gcc" CC_e5500-64b = "powerpc-poky-linux-gcc -m32" I'd rather NOT recompile gcc/eglibc/etc just for this 32-bit build of u-boot where we don't need libc. I'd rather just have a functional 32bit/64bit compiler for our 64-bit target. Looking forward farther, I would like to have one toolchain ("meta-toolchain") that can produce target code for multiple targets also. -M _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
