Hi, I am using a binutils-2.21 snapshot (2011-03-18) on my Debian/sid i386 Host and tried to include the same version for my mipsel-toolchain.
Even with including the new --size-option=warning option [1] as a CFLAGS into the uclibc.mk script, the build of uClibc-0.9.32-rc3 breaks (see below). This should *not* happen with this option: Spy out "errors as warnings" and continue. As binutils-2.21 is nearly "ready-to-be-released", there will be more reports like this as they were on LKML (all issues there got fixed). Doug has already reported here some errors for powerpc, yesterday. >From a previous build I have collected some more "warnings". host-binutils (see above) and target-binutils was 2.21.51.0.6 (H.J. Lu). While hunting another toolchain bug, I could talk a bit with Peter: "There are some macros for mips (see sys/asm.h) to solve these .cprestore/.frame warnings, but not all *.S files were converted to use them consistently. I have about 2000 patches to apply to uClibc (done in 2007/2008, need much manual rework), IIRC I solved these, but are late in the queue. First I have to make general code work/cleanup/fix, after that the arch specifics." But I have no clue on how to fix that. As he is busy with other stuff, I am asking here on the ML.
