Strangely, I still fail to build. I'm trying on u-boot/master 6d1966e12 (dated Aug 1st 2014) Building with the following commands, on clean build directory: export BUILD_DIR=/home/lab/dev/u-boot/out/all_mips export USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC=yes export CROSS_COMPILE=mips-linux- ./MAKEALL -a mips Here is what I get with the toolchain from kernel.org: Building qemu_mips board... text data bss dec hex filename 223063 8160 217752 448975 6d9cf /home/lab/dev/u-boot/out/all_mips/u-boot mips-linux-ld.bfd: Warning: u-boot uses -msoft-float (set by arch/mips/cpu/mips32/built-in.o), /usr/mips-linux/bin/../lib/gcc/mips-linux/4.9.0/libgcc.a(_lshrdi3.o) uses -mhard-float mips-linux-ld.bfd: Warning: u-boot uses -msoft-float (set by arch/mips/cpu/mips32/built-in.o), /usr/mips-linux/bin/../lib/gcc/mips-linux/4.9.0/libgcc.a(_ashldi3.o) uses -mhard-float Building qemu_mipsel board... make[1]: *** [u-boot] Error 1 make: *** [sub-make] Error 2 mips-linux-size: '/home/lab/dev/u-boot/out/all_mips/u-boot': No such file mips-linux-ld.bfd: /usr/mips-linux/bin/../lib/gcc/mips-linux/4.9.0/libgcc.a(_lshrdi3.o): compiled for a big endian system and target is little endian mips-linux-ld.bfd: /usr/mips-linux/bin/../lib/gcc/mips-linux/4.9.0/libgcc.a(_lshrdi3.o): endianness incompatible with that of the selected emulation mips-linux-ld.bfd: failed to merge target specific data of file /usr/mips-linux/bin/../lib/gcc/mips-linux/4.9.0/libgcc.a(_lshrdi3.o) mips-linux-ld.bfd: /usr/mips-linux/bin/../lib/gcc/mips-linux/4.9.0/libgcc.a(_ashldi3.o): compiled for a big endian system and target is little endian mips-linux-ld.bfd: /usr/mips-linux/bin/../lib/gcc/mips-linux/4.9.0/libgcc.a(_ashldi3.o): endianness incompatible with that of the selected emulation mips-linux-ld.bfd: failed to merge target specific data of file /usr/mips-linux/bin/../lib/gcc/mips-linux/4.9.0/libgcc.a(_ashldi3.o) make[1]: *** [u-boot] Error 1 make: *** [sub-make] Error 2 and here is what I get with Mentor Sourcery CodeBench Lite Edition: (Replacing to CROSS_COMPILE=mips-sde-elf-) Building qemu_mips board... arch/mips/cpu/mips32/start.o: error adding symbols: Bad value make[1]: *** [u-boot] Error 1 make: *** [sub-make] Error 2 mips-sde-elf-size: '/home/lab/dev/u-boot/out/all_mips/u-boot': No such file mips-sde-elf-ld: board/qemu-mips/lowlevel_init.o: warning: linking abicalls files with non-abicalls files mips-sde-elf-ld: arch/mips/cpu/mips32/cpu.o: warning: linking abicalls files with non-abicalls files /home/lab/dev/u-boot/common/cli_simple.c: In function 'process_macros': /home/lab/dev/u-boot/common/cli_simple.c:73:2: warning: format '%zd' expects argument of type 'signed size_t', but argument 2 has type '__kernel_size_t' [-Wformat=] debug_parser("[PROCESS_MACROS] INPUT len %zd: \"%s\"\n", strlen(input), ^ /home/lab/dev/u-boot/common/cli_simple.c:162:2: warning: format '%zd' expects argument of type 'signed size_t', but argument 2 has type '__kernel_size_t' [-Wformat=] debug_parser("[PROCESS_MACROS] OUTPUT len %zd: \"%s\"\n", ^ /home/lab/dev/u-boot/lib/lzma/LzmaTools.c: In function 'lzmaBuffToBuffDecompress': /home/lab/dev/u-boot/lib/lzma/LzmaTools.c:94:5: warning: format '%zx' expects argument of type 'size_t', but argument 2 has type 'SizeT' [-Wformat=] debug("LZMA: Uncompresed size............ 0x%zx\n", outSizeFull);
