building gcc 4.0.0 on Solaris

Hi, I'm attempting to build gcc 4.0.0 on Solaris. I have been unable to build gcc or at least some of its components since the release of gcc 3.4. Here are a few details on my system: - Solaris 8 7/01 - Sun's as/ld as: Sun WorkShop 6 99/08/18 ld: Software Generation Utilities - Solaris Li

Re: building gcc 4.0.0 on Solaris

Hi, The build fails with the following message: ld: fatal: relocation error: R_SPARC_DISP32: file .libs/libstdc++.lax/libsupc++convenience.a/vterminate.o: symbol : offset 0xfccd33ad is non-aligned Probably a Sun 'as' bug, a similar problem was reported on Solaris 7: http://gcc.gnu.org/install/spec

Re: building gcc 4.0.0 on Solaris

Hi, As far as I can understand, it's not possible to build gcc 4.0.0 and gcc 3.4.* using GNU binutils with current release 2.15 of GNU binutils. One has to use the CVS sources or at least one file. FYI binutils-2.16 has just been released. You might want to try that. I have installed binutils-2

Re: building gcc 4.0.0 on Solaris

Hi, I have installed binutils-2.16. Things work better in the sense that I get much farther into building the Java libraries. I still hit a problem: [...] ar rc .libs/libgcj0_convenience.a [... around 100.000 characters ...] internal error: error_message(58) [...] Is this a known issue? I've work

Re: building gcc 4.0.0 on Solaris

Hi, How did you configure? The mix of GNU tools and Sun tools looks suspicious. I think there's no mix involved. I have configured with: ./configure \ --with-as=/usr/local/binutils/bin/as \ --with-ld=/usr/local/binutils/bin/ld \ ... so I shou

Re: building gcc 4.0.0 on Solaris

Hi, I have configured with: ./configure \ --with-as=/usr/local/binutils/bin/as \ --with-ld=/usr/local/binutils/bin/ld \ ... so I should be using GNU's as and ld. --with-gnu-as and --with-gnu-ld I presume? No, but configure does detect that, d

Re: building gcc 4.0.0 on Solaris

Hi, libgcj.so.6.0.0 is a monster so that could be a memory problem too. If you're not interested in Java, I'd suggest to configure with --disable-libgcj. Actually I'd like to help fix bugs in the Solaris toolchain, apart from compiling my C++ programs. Using "xgcc -v" instead of plain "xgcc" I

Re: building gcc 4.0.0 on Solaris

Hi, Pass -debug to collect2. I'm not sure this will give you a *small* testcase though. /usr/local/binutils/bin/ld [...] -soname libgcj.so.6 [...] GNU ld version 2.16 Supported emulations: elf32_sparc elf64_sparc /usr/local/binutils/bin/ld: failed to set dynamic section sizes: Memory exh

Re: building gcc 4.0.0 on Solaris

Yeah, in 1991 my 386 featured 4 Mb and I really see no reason why it could not be used to build libgcj nowadays. ;-) Ooops :-) These were indeed Gb instead of Mb for those wondering... -- Dimitri

Re: building gcc 4.0.0 on Solaris

Hi, BTW: Have you tried to also look at what ulimits are set on your system? I've rebooted the system and things are really getting better (even Sun's "ar" seems to be working now). This was a kernel problem, the kernel is not up-to-date with patches and the workstation hadn't been rebooted for

Re: building gcc 4.0.0 on Solaris

Hi, OK, I guess the latest compilers from Sun ship with a better "as". Unfortunately I'm stuck with Sun Studio One 7 for now. Maybe it should be documented that a recent version of "as" is needed by gcc. A version not affected by the bug. 4.0.0 bootstraps on Solaris 2.5.1 with as: WorkShop Compil
