Which toolchain are we using?

2011-11-10 Thread Premi, Sanjeev
Hi all,

I have been running latest linux-omap/master on OMAP3EVM (boot from MMC).
When building with CodeSourcery 2011.03-41, I see frequent hangs just
after Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel

However, builds with CodeSourcery 2009q1-203 boot consistently all the
time.

Before trying to investigate further, wanted to know if someone else has
seen the problem. If no, which toolchain is being used.

Sanjeev:

I've seen this behavior with kernels as far back as 2.6.32. The solutions
explored in discussions on the Web seem to be around soft- vs. hardware
alignment exception handling.

Mentor is aware of the issue but has no specific recommendations at this
time.

Best,

Grant
