[ECOS] New user question

[ECOS] New user question

[Richardson, Anthony]

I'm betting this falls into the "stupid user error" category ...

I downloaded and installed everything under Windows/cygwin.
I've gone through the process of building the test as directed
in the manual.

The problem is that I don't seem to have the "target sim" available
in gdb:

$ i386-elf-gdb -nw i386_install/tests/kernel/v2_0/tests/bin_sem0
GNU gdb 5.3 (eCosCentric)
Copyright 2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

This GDB was configured as "--host=i686-pc-cygwin --target=i386-elf"...
(gdb) target sim
Undefined target command: "sim".  Try "help target".

========================================================================
===

Sure enough "help target" doesn't list "sim" as an available target.
Did I miss a configuration option when I was building the tests or
the library?


(I also tried just "run" from the gdb prompt, but then I get a
"Don't know how to run.  Try "help target"." error)

Thanks,
Tony Richardson

The sim target is only available for a few processor types. i386 is
not one of them. 

Look at the appendix in 
http://ecos.sourceware.org/docs-latest/user-guide/ecos-user-guide.html

It lists a number of architecture simulators. Or consider using linux
sythn target,

Sergei,

Thanks for your prompt reply. I am using 32bit synthetic linux and are
attempting to build the examples with linux gcc version gcc version
4.4.5 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.4.4-14ubuntu5). I am wondering if I have the
incorrect/incompatible set of tools.

Hi Peter,

if your host is x86_64 you can try some from recipes which you can find
on the list

[ECOS] New User Question

[Peter Smith]

Having discovered eCos I thought I would try to build and run the
examples on the synthetic linux target.

I created the build tree using ecosconfig new linux followed by ecosconfig tree.

I then built the tree without errors.

My problem came when attempting to build the examples as shown below.

psmith@ubuntu:~/examples$ make INSTALL_DIR=$HOME/linux/install
gcc -c -o hello.o -I/home/psmith/linux/install/include -Wall
-Wpointer-arith -Wstrict-prototypes -Wundef -Woverloaded-virtual
-Wno-write-strings -g -O2 -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections
-fno-rtti -fno-exceptions hello.c
cc1: warning: command line option "-Woverloaded-virtual" is valid for
C++/ObjC++ but not for C
cc1: warning: command line option "-fno-rtti" is valid for C++/ObjC++
but not for C
gcc -nostartfiles -L/home/psmith/linux/install/lib -Ttarget.ld -g
-nostdlib -Wl,--gc-sections -Wl,-static -o hello hello.o
target.ld:33 cannot move location counter backwards (from
000000000200cd10 to 00000000007f32f0)
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [hello] Error 1

I am using Ubuntu 10.10 by the way

Thanks in advance
Peter Smith

This is kind of normal. It is to do with exception handling, which is
specific to the version of gcc being used. The native gcc is being
used for synth and there are many different versions out there. It is
not possible to make this work for all tools. 

Its not a major problem unless you want to do what the test program is
testing, which is unlikely.

I was able to build the linux synth target, but get an error when I try
to
build the tests.  Specifically:

gcc -g -nostdlib -Wl,-static -Wl,--fatal-warnings 
-L/home/ar63/ecos/work/linuxsynth_install/lib -Ttarget.ld 
-o
/home/ar63/ecos/work/linuxsynth_install/tests/infra/v2_0/tests/cxxsupp
tests/cxxsupp.o
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/home/ar63/ecos/work/linuxsynth_build/infra/v2_0'
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.2/libsupc++.a(new_op.o)(.text._Zn
wj+0xb7): In function `operator new(unsigned)':
make: Leaving directory `/home/ar63/ecos/work/linuxsynth_build'
: undefined reference to `_Unwind_Resume'

Any suggestions?

What platform are you on? If linux i'd actually suggest using the
linux target. Its not a simulator, rather a synthetic target which
runs as a process on Linux.

Is you are on M$, then sorry, i don't know. I've not used simulators
myself.

Thanks for responding.  I decided to try to use the TX39 simulator.
But apparently I need to build the build tools for that?  Is there
a recommended simulator that uses one of the supplied build tool sets?
