error building ee-gcc

hi all,

i know, it's strange, but i have this error...

ERROR BUILDING GCC (gcc-3.2.2 ee)

i work on linux platform :
- gcc (GCC) 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-4)

do you have any idea ?
thanks for your help...

Do you compile using ooPo's toolchain script ?

Code: Select all

ERROR BUILDING GCC (gcc-3.2.2 ee)

That's from the toolchain script, so I'd say yes. :)

I don't know what the error could be, but I suggest taking a google to it.

ooPo: I have tried building from your script twice today, once over my old install and now on a clean cygwin, here is what I am getting as a result:

same results both times :(

Im assuming its a small problem in the make script as my ps2sdk vars are defined, but unfortunately I dont have time to delve ATM (sleep calls)

Are you sure the environment variables are actually getting set? The top of the script should set them correctly even if you don't have them set up in the shell yet which makes this very odd.

I assume you're running bash? Are you running the script by making it executable first, or by typing 'sh ./toolchain.sh'?

hi,

So after some investigations ....

it seems it's a problem with the variable mips_use_128 ...
in gcc source code caller-save.c we have this line :

Code: Select all

static enum machine_mode 
  regno_save_mode[FIRST_PSEUDO_REGISTER][MAX_MOVE_MAX / MIN_UNITS_PER_WORD + 1]

with the include of the last mips.h we have

Code: Select all

static enum machine_mode 
  regno_save_mode[FIRST_PSEUDO_REGISTER][[color=red] (mips_use_128 ? 16 : 8)[/color] / MIN_UNITS_PER_WORD + 1]

and the result is this error ....
../../gcc/caller-save.c:53: error: variable-size type declared outside of any function

http://cvs.ps2dev.org/gcc-3.2.2/gcc/con ... 1.2&r2=1.3

so i take the previous mips.h and it'works fine....
I think we can't use a variable in static allocation of an array. i'm right ? or is it a problem of my gcc ?

Have fun ;)

[pixel]

Errr... of course we can't. I wonder how cody could compile that :P

Okay, I'll work around that otherwise.

Thanks for the clear report.

[cory1492]

Perhaps cygwin and its ?older (3.3.3-3)? version compiler is more tolerant of errors than the latest Linux that nippy is using?

I chmod a+x the script as per directions, and the env vars are set in bash.bashrc (like lukasz' install script does). Im going to try again ATM with just ps2sdk (it was the only part of the install that seemed to have failed for me at any rate)

addendum:
OK, it worked fine now, and upon updating my local copy of PS2SDK from yesterday I see:

Code: Select all

CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@cvs.ps2dev.org:/home/ps2cvs

P tools/bin2o/Makefile
U tools/bin2o/bin2o

were updated in CVS. Thanks pixel and ooPo!

now to see if the "oldiop" install works out ok... Im assuming of course that the build irx has not been completely repaired as of yet.

To be honest, there's nothing to repair at all in the compiler I think. Well, I've been explaining that a little in the other thread talking about "broken IOP compiler": http://forums.ps2dev.org/viewtopic.php?t=736

If you find other issues between the old 2.x iop-gcc and the new 3.2.2 iop-gcc, please report. But I guess this was the main issue, and that it is solved now.

Well that saves some compiling time for sure, thanks again pixel, I will attempt to see if what Im compiling will work out

nippy: glad you got your problem sorted too

I'm having this same error, how exactly did you fix it? ... not sure what you mean by "so i take the previous mips.h and it'works fine"
