Does EGCS Support ARC

Does EGCS Support ARC

[Catherine Fong]

Is ARC one of the targets that EGCS supports?
I tried to build and configure as

../../../egcs/egcs-1.1.1/configure
--with-gcc-version-trigger=/home/catherine/egcs/egcs-1.1.1/gcc/version.c
--host=sparc-sun-solaris2.6 --target=arc-elf -v
--srcdir=../../../egcs/egcs-1.1.1 --norecursion

and got problem when cc1 is being built.

ARC == Advanced Risc Computing.  The arc target is likely the
mipsel-unknown-openbsd target, which for a while was known as
arc-unknown-openbsd.  I don't know how much of that support made it
into egcs.  I have been able to build a cross compiler/tools on
FreeBSD 3.0 for mipsel-unknown-openbsd2.3 from the OpenBSD.  I have
also build support for linux as well.

I'm curious about what you are doing with arc.  I have an old mips
based arc machine and there aren't too many people around that have
this hardware.

Technically.  It's not been used in a long time and has
a touch of bit rot.

Change this reference to `register_operand'.

She configured ARC as in Argonaut ARC, which is not any kind of MIPS.

Interesting.

I'd not heard of that before now...

: Interesting.

It was changed because it was wrong.  It may have been
mips-arc-openbsd, which would have been less wrong.  It has been a
long time and it wasn't that way for long.  All this was in the
OpenBSD tree.  I know not what bits of it made it back into gcc2 or
egcs, if any.

Nobody's actively working on the arc, so it's probably suffering from bitrot.

The development sources already had this bug fixed.  I brought that fix over
to the egcs-1.1 release branch for the upcoming egcs-1.1.2 release.

*Everything* is going to make it back to egcs as soon as the FSF moves
its ass and processes my assignment papers.

Yo, oh ! anybody home ?

BTW, if you would try to compile /usr/ports/egcs-snapshots on the arc,
and report problems to me, that would help ensuring that a correct 
configuration gets sent.

They've been processed.

GCC     Marc Espie      France 1967     1999-01-07
Assigns past and future changes (OpenBSD configuration).
espie@cvs.openbsd.org

FSF isn't mailing copies back for some reason, but you're in.  I'm
still waiting for my paperwork to come back, six months later...

Don't wake up the FSF, they need the sleep...

This is insane.!! the FSF is the organization which is completely
paranoid about copyright assignments and the GPL. Do they want it
to work ?   They could *at least* try and perform the basic administrative
work correctly... Now, what's going to happen when I find a non-trivial
patch for binutils, or for libiberty ?  Or when I get a patch  from one
of my fellow openbsd developpers which is less than trivial.

I'll have to tell them:
'okay, you have to hunt thru the egcs pages for the copyright assignments,
fill it up, send it in, then wait for one month, and if you haven't heard
from them after that period, start bitching on the egcs mailing-list,
where someone's going to tell you:

Oops, sorry. We processed your papers, but we forgot to tell you about it.'

*How* do you think this reflects on the image of the FSF ?

egcs isn't the place to complain about this.  We have zero control over how
the FSF processes paperwork.

Complain to assignments@gnu.org and rms@gnu.org.

Also, you can ask assignments@gnu.org or gnu@gnu.org to check if your
paperwork has been processed, this should be more reliable than
bitching about it on egcs and hoping someone with an FSF account sees
the message.
