Both binutils and glibc's configure scripts will see
it as a mips32, because it does not start off with
mips64 in the name.
Should probably fix the configury to recognize mipsisa64 as a 64-bit
target. binutils should already do this for mipsisa64-linux-gnu, but

Ok, I -think- I've found one problem.
Identifying the processor as an SB1 may be producing a
confused result.
Both binutils and glibc's configure scripts will see

However, GCC's configure scripts expands the name to
mipsisa64

I'm doing a build from the binutils, gcc and glibc
from CVS, for an initial run. Results so far:

Yes, I did, last year.
But I did it through a tedious iterative process--build the binutils,
build the compiler until it fails building libgcc, install parts of

I don't have a mips64 version of glibc, I'm having to
build the entire toolchain from the ground up. (Yuck.)
I'm trying to build the entire toolchain as 64-bit

Further to Eric's good advice:
Do you already have access to a mips64 version of glibc? (You said in
your message that you'd tried a native build, but I wasn't sure whether
that was using a 32-bit OS or a 64-bit OS)
It's tricky to build a toolchain and glibc in tandem (i.e. when neither

I would prefer a recipe to build the toolchain myself
from source, but if you happen to know of a site with
binaries for the SB1 under Linux, I wouldn't be
horribly opposed.
For the latter I'd try broadcom, they've been pretty good about
shipping tools that are known to work on the board. Tha
Hi,
I am trying to compile a toolchain for a Broadcom SB1
