Hi everyone,
I am a new guy to this list. I compiled the binutils by
the config option --target=powerpc-ibm-eabi
I tried out the two example assmber files listed
here:http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-ppc/
However, hello-ppc64.s has a couple of assemble error,
which make me feel that the cross-assembler does not like
the 64-bit syntax by IBM. (The hello-ppc.s works well)
Could anyone tell me whether this 64-bit implementation is
supported by as in the current version binutils-2.14?
Thank you very much!
Chen

To: quchen, binutils
you need powerpc64-ibm-eabi for 64bit support

Dear Dave,
Thank you very much for your fast reply. Would you tell me
where I can find a full set of defination to "--target="
option for both the GNU assembler, and the GNU debugger?
And I have another foundamental question. Since I have
just built on the traditional i686 linux host, using the
same config option, the ppc targeted binutiles and gdb.
They seem to work well. Would you tell me whether they are
what is so named "cross tools"?

I'm not sure that there's a full list for binutils anywhere. Perhaps someone
else on the list knows? There is a list for GCC -
http://gcc.gnu.org/install/specific.html

any of the tools built where the host differs from the target are "cross
tools"
this link - http://www.objsw.com/CrossGCC/FAQ.html - has lots of useful
information on the subject.

Actually, that's not such a good link to quote these days: it's a bit out
of date.

I'd recommend Bill Gatliff's crossgcc FAQ and wiki page at
http://crossgcc.billgatliff.com/

cheers,

Again, thank you very much Dave:)
I have tried to join the mail list of the first link but
failed. I think perphaps it is out of date.
I have tried your other 2 links and found them very
'carina':) Actually I have been searching for the
resources for the new starters on cross-compile issues and
your link is very useful.
Thanks again.
