Hello community,
I am trying to build gcc on Sparc Solaris 9.
So far I am creating a directory sibling to the source distribution directory and running configure from there.
One thing I don’t understand is why the base configure script does not descend automatically to the gcc subfolder.
I have to go in there and run configure again.
While running configure with the command line : ../../gcc-3.4.6/gcc/configure —with-gnu-as —with-gnu-ld
and then make : it builds the files and when it gets to running ld I get the error :
/usr/local/sparc-sun-solaris2.9/bin/ld: target elf64-sparc not found
I am building this gcc with the same version installed via sunfkeeware packages.
The reason for building it is that I need objective-c support and the package does not have it.
This ld error indicates that the ld executable being run is from solaris, and not the gnu one I have in /usr/local/bin/ld
Can anyone shed some light on this ?
Thanks
Regards
Daniel Santos

Which shell are you using?
See https://gcc.gnu.org/install/specific.html#x-x-solaris2 where it says to
use ksh.

The installation instructions do say to use the native linker, not the GNU
binutils one.
Again, see https://gcc.gnu.org/install/specific.html#x-x-solaris2
Passing --with-gnu-ld is wrong if it's finding and using the Solaris
linker. Either adjust your PATH so the GNU one is found first, or stop
telling GCC it's GNU ld when it isn't.

Besides, because GCC on Solaris supports two incompatible versions of ld
(Solaris ld and GNU ld), it is crucial to specify the path to the linker
you want to configure with with --with-ld=<path to ld> (both for
/usr/ccs/bin/ld and some version of GNU ld). Otherwise, PATH changes
would randomly break the resulting gcc.
If you really want to use GNU ld (I don't know why you would, though),
please build and use a recent one: at least what's recommended in
install.texi. You'd probably be able to use GNU ld from current
binutils 2.38, too.
On top of that, I wouldn't bother with GCC 3.4 at all. Instead, please
use the latest release still supporting Solaris 9, GCC 4.9.4 It's way
better tested and supported than the ancient GCC 3.4. Please consult
the Solaris sections of the bundled install docs in
gcc/doc/install.texi. It contains many hints and caveats to consider
when building GCC. The online version on gcc.gnu.org is for GCC trunk
only: everything pertaining to Solaris versions no longer supported
(i.e. before Solaris 11.3) has been removed.

Hello,
As to switching to gcc 4.9, can my currently installed gcc 3.4.6 build it ?
While sticking to the 3.4.6 version, I removed the solaris ld out of the way and am building it with gnu ld.
Right now I have the following error :
rm -f libv3test.a
ar cru libv3test.a testsuite_abi.o testsuite_allocator.o testsuite_hooks.o
ranlib libv3test.a
touch testsuite_wchar_t

Can anyone help me understand what this means ?

It's telling you it can't execute the script.
Is that file executable? It should be.

Hi Daniel,
> As to switching to gcc 4.9, can my currently installed gcc 3.4.6 build it ?
as documented in install.texi (you absolute need to check it!), GCC 4.9
requires a ISO C++98 compiler, so GC 3.4.6 should be good. If all else
fails, you need to take some intermediate step (like GCC 4.7 which only
needed an ISO C89 compiler).
> While sticking to the 3.4.6 version, I removed the solaris ld out of the
Don't mess around with the installed /usr/ccs/bin/ld. Just pass
--with-ld=<your desired ld> (and --with-gnu-ld or --without-gnu-ld as
needed.

Again: why are you so adamant on using GNU ld here? Solaris ld works
way better.

That script hardcodes /bin/sh which on Solaris 9 probably isn't able to
execute that script. The invocation should be prefixed with $(SHELL)
(initialized from $CONFIG_SHELL) instead.
I'm pretty certain issues like this have been resolved for GCC 4.9/4.8,
so you'd better not bother with GCC 3.4 anymore.

I downloader gcc-4.9.4 sources and did a ./configure just to see what it was the output.

Most notably I saw the error : gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1': No such file or directory
But isn’t cc1 the SUN C compiler ? I don’t have it.
Also, to see the documentation I installed tetex on the machine and then did a texi2html install.texi and got :
bash-2.05$ export PATH=/usr/local/teTeX/bin/sparc-sun-solaris2.9/:$PATH
bash-2.05$ pwd

bash-2.05$ texi2html install.texi
*** Can't find gcc-common.texi, skipping (l. 10)
** empty document
bash-2.05$
Any help appreciated.
Thanks,

No, you're thinking of cc.
cc1 is GCC's C compiler. Your GCC installation is broken if the 'gcc'
driver cannot find its own 'cc1' executable.
I don’t have it.

Hello,
So I re-installed the gcc 3.4.6 from sunfkeeware packages. I am now able to do ./configure on the gcc base directory.
I got gmp-4.3.2, mpfr-2.4.2 and mpc-1.0.1 sources because gcc depends on them.
I compiled gmp-4.3.2 and it finished. I then did a ‘make check’ and at the end of the output i got :
make check-TESTS

Which probably means that the gcc version I have installed is 32 bit. Am I correct ?
Can it be used to build a 64 bit 4.9.4 gcc ?
Thanks,

I ended up starting over and deleting the previous build. I was trying to build the prerequisites libraries from source by downloading them myself and doing the build.
I then knew of the ./contrib/download_prerequisites script and ran that.
I then did :
# ../gcc-4.9.4/configure --enable-languages=c,c++,objc,fortran,java --enable-obsolete --prefix=/usr/local --with-gnu-as
and then:
# make
Currently I have the following
sparcv9/libgcc_s.so.1 && ln -s libgcc_s.so.1 sparcv9/libgcc_s.so
/usr/local/sparc-sun-solaris2.9/bin/ld: cannot find libgcc-unwind.map: No such file or directory

I have no idea. Anyone can help me ?
