Crosstool Build Fails under cygwin

Crosstool Build Fails under cygwin

[Jeremy Cole-Baker]

Hello all,

I've been instructed to get a cross-compiler for Power PC working under 
Cygwin (crazy idea I know, but that's what they want!). Having trouble, 
though.

I have tried crisstools-ng version 1.17 and 1.18,  but they won't build. 
"Configure" seemed to work fine, but "make" for both versions stopped 
with this error:

My system is Windows 7 64 bit, and I installed the latest Cygwin (I 
think it's 1.7). I installed all the dev tools in the Cygwin setup.


This may or may not be relevant, but:

A couple of days ago, I downloaded and installed crosstools-ng 1.9 
(because it was at the bottom of the page! I guess I failed the first 
intelligence test!).

1.9 built OK, and I was able to run the "menuconfig" option and set up 
my toolchain. Running the toolchain build took a loooooooooooooooong 
time (11 hours!) and eventually ended with an error. Here are the last 
few lines of the log file:

That seems slow! (Athlon 64 X2 dual core @ 3.1 Ghz and 6 GB RAM).

I've become completely obsessed by this task (i.e. building a toolchain 
for cygwin) and I've lost all sense of perspective, so suggestions would 
be appreciated!

Thanks,
Jeremy

RE: EXTERNAL: Crosstool Build Fails under cygwin

[Dorrington, Albert]

I was trying to use crosstool-ng under Cygwin to build an x86 Linux cross-compiler (need to be able to generate ELF output) and ran into the same issue with _libintl_gettext. I found the following two references with patches to the Makefile and nconf.c files:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13881633/error-when-installing-crosstool-ng-on-cygwin-libintl-gettext
http://sourceware.org/ml/crossgcc/2012-05/msg00012.html

Unfortunately, I didn't get much farther than that before I had to put my effort on hold.  I couldn't get past the build steps involving cloog-ppl.

Re: Crosstool Build Fails under cygwin

[Crifan Li]

Hi
     I have encounted same issues, in same environment: x74 win7 + Cywin 
1.7.17
issue1: zconf.tab.o:zconf.tab.c:(.text+0x1671): undefined reference to 
`_libintl_gettext'
issue2: Makefile:240: *** mixed implicit and normal rules. Stop.
issue3: That seems slow!

but now, has already fixed them before.

in brief, the (best) solution is:
1. for issue1: zconf.tab.o:zconf.tab.c:(.text+0x1671): undefined 
reference to `_libintl_gettext'
reason:
lack related lib (when build under Cygwin)
solution:
change the makefile
crosstool-ng-1.18.0\kconfig\Makefile
to add intl and curses lib for conf, mconf, nconf
like this:

# What’s needed to build ‘conf’
conf_SRC = conf.c
conf_OBJ = $(patsubst %.c,%.o,$(conf_SRC))
conf_DEP = $(patsubst %.o,%.dep,$(conf_OBJ))
$(conf_OBJ) $(conf_DEP): CFLAGS += $(INTL_CFLAGS)
conf: LDFLAGS += -lintl

# What’s needed to build ‘mconf’
mconf_SRC = mconf.c
mconf_OBJ = $(patsubst %.c,%.o,$(mconf_SRC))
mconf_DEP = $(patsubst %.c,%.dep,$(mconf_SRC))
$(mconf_OBJ) $(mconf_DEP): CFLAGS += $(NCURSES_CFLAGS) $(INTL_CFLAGS)
#mconf: LDFLAGS += $(NCURSES_LDFLAGS)
mconf: LDFLAGS += -lintl $(NCURSES_LDFLAGS)

# What’s needed to build ‘nconf’
nconf_SRC = nconf.c nconf.gui.c
nconf_OBJ = $(patsubst %.c,%.o,$(nconf_SRC))
nconf_DEP = $(patsubst %.c,%.dep,$(nconf_SRC))
#$(nconf_OBJ) $(nconf_DEP): CFLAGS += $(INTL_CFLAGS) -I/usr/include/ncurses
#nconf: LDFLAGS += -lmenu -lpanel -lncurses
$(nconf_OBJ) $(nconf_DEP): CFLAGS += -I/usr/include/ncurses/ $(INTL_CFLAGS)
nconf: LDFLAGS += -lintl -lmenu -lpanel -lncurses


2. for issue2: Makefile:240: *** mixed implicit and normal rules. Stop.
reason:
make v3.81 support those "mixed implicit and normal rules"
but new v3.82 make, not support them.
solution:
use crosstool-ng (included) companion make:
in ct-ng menuconfig, config to use its (v3.81) make:
Paths and misc options  —>
     [*] Try features marked as EXPERIMENTAL
Companion tools  —>
     [*] Build some companion tools
     [*]   make

3. for issue3: That seems slow!
config crosstool-ng to use multithread, such as 4 thread:
Paths and misc options
   (4) Number of parallel jobs

for more details, can refer my posts(written in Chinese, you can use 
google translate it to English):
1. for issue1: zconf.tab.o:zconf.tab.c:(.text+0x1671): undefined 
reference to `_libintl_gettext'
http://www.crifan.com/crosstool_ng_cygwin_zconf_tab_o_zconf_tab_c_text_0x162a_undefined_reference_to_libintl_gettext/
http://www.crifan.com/crosstool_ng_cygwin_zconf_tab_o_zconf_tab_c_text_0x162a_undefined_reference_to_libintl_gettext-2/
2. for issue2: Makefile:240: *** mixed implicit and normal rules. Stop.
http://www.crifan.com/crosstool_ng_makefile_mixed_implicit_and_normal_rules_stop/
http://www.crifan.com/cygwin_make_linux_kernel_makefile_mixed_implicit_and_normal_rules_stop/
3. for issue3: That seems slow!
