Can crosstool-ng build a gcc branch

Can crosstool-ng build a gcc branch

[Wink Saville]

I'd like to test a new gcc feature that is in hjl/interrupt/stage1
(https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc/tree/hjl/interrupt/stage1), is
there a way to configure ct-ng to build a specific branch or make a
specific sha1?

Sure, just clone down gcc and checkout the stage1 branch.
If you want a specific sha1, just checkout out the specific commit.

Clone down the latest crosstool-ng master. Choose a sample that is
close to the target you want and in menu config, under compiler choose
custom and set the location to the absolute path to where you cloned
down gcc, and set the version to something. Maybe in this case set
version to stage1.

Cheers,

Bryan,

In the "C compiler" page off the main menu I have a "gcc version"
option which I've set to 5.3.0 (I'm using the Tip of Tree of
crosstool-ng sha1 99cf467) but I don't see "custom" option. I seem to
be in the wrong menu.

You should open a new message instead of hijacking someone else's message.

Searching google for unsubscribing from the list, I found this:
https://sourceware.org/lists.html#unsubscribe-simple

This list is crossgcc, so send an email to: crossgcc-unsubscribe@sourceware.org

Cheers,

Bryan, thanks for the help it worked.

For others, here are some pedantic instructions:

* From main menu config page "Crosstool-NG Configuration" select
"Paths and misc options"
* From "Paths and misc options" select "Try features marked as EXPERIMENTAL"
* Press ESC twice quickly to return to main config page
* From main menu config page "Crosstool-NG Configuration" select "C compiler"
* From "C compiler" select "Custom gcc" and two new options will
appear "Full path to custom gcc source" and "Custom GCC Version"
* From "C compiler" select" "Full path to custom gcc source" and add
the path to the <root to gcc> you'd like to build.

You can also select "Custom GCC Version" but that does not change
<root to gcc>/gcc/BASE-VER file as I thought it might,
instead you might want to change it manually. Other files that might
be desirable to change so as to further identify
your build are <root to gcc>/gcc/DATESTAMP and <root to gcc>/gcc/DEV-PHASE.

Note the advice here is from a complete noobie to gcc so take it with
a huge grain of salt.

You may have to check Experimental in the paths menu.
