Testing egcs-1.0.2 in UDB and PC164LX

Testing egcs-1.0.2 in UDB and PC164LX

[Miguel A. de Avillez]

Hello all

1. I compiled egcs-1.0.2 in a UDB and carried out the tests on it. I got
the following error messages:

FAIL: g77.f-torture/execute/dnrm2.f execution,  -O1
FAIL: g77.f-torture/execute/dnrm2.f execution,  -O2
FAIL: g77.f-torture/execute/dnrm2.f execution,  -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer
-finline-functions
FAIL: g77.f-torture/execute/dnrm2.f execution,  -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer
-finline-functions -funroll-loops
FAIL: g77.f-torture/execute/dnrm2.f execution,  -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer
-finline-functions -funroll-all-loops

                === g77 Summary ===

# of expected passes            126
# of unexpected failures        6
/home/pancho/objdir/gcc/g77 version egcs-2.90.27 980315 (egcs-1.0.2
release)

make[1]: [check-g77] Error 1 (ignored)


so does this mean that g77 is not working properly?


2. Installation in a PC164LX got the following error:

configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler
cannot create executables.

Configure in /home/pancho/objdir/gcc failed, exiting.

...

Which C compiler is the configure referring to? the gcc in the linux box
or the gcc in the objdir/gcc ?


thanks for the help

regards,

miguel

I don't know what a UDB or PC164LX is.  Please use machine descriptions that
everyone will recognize.  config.guess output is best.  I am guessing that
PC164LX is some kind of alpha-linux machine.

	so does this mean that g77 is not working properly?

The testsuites aren't perfect, and a few failures are normal for most targets.
It is possible that these failures are normal for your target.

	2. Installation in a PC164LX got the following error:

	configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler
	cannot create executables.

	Which C compiler is the configure referring to? the gcc in the linux box
	or the gcc in the objdir/gcc ?

It is telling you that the C compiler already installed on your system
appears to be broken.  The C compiler that will be used to compile egcs will
be gcc if it is on your path, otherwise, cc.

This is documented in the g77 manual as a known problem.


There are problems with using computed gotos in fortran code on the
x86.

You didn't include all the information, so it's difficult to tell.
