All, I've never had success with Fiasco but decided to give it another go so I could run some benchmarks. In short, I had one success and two failures. Any help would be appreciated.
1) I can build Fiasco for x86 on the host (32 bit x86 system). Yay 2) Can't build Fiasco for ARM on an x86 host due to... an old arm-linux-gcc version? 3) Can't build L4Re due to linker error.
1) Successful build of Fiasco x86 This and other builds are using a recent pull from the repo [1] on a Fedora based 32bit x86 system running gcc 4.4.4 on Linux 2.6.34.
2) Failure to build Fiasco ARM This early failure seems to be a simple problem with gcc changing the arguments - can anyone tell me the version of the "official" arm compiler in use? I'm running arm-linux-gcc 3.4.4.
------------ make[1]: Entering directory `/home/tommd/dev/L4/L4Re/build_arm' ... Generating version information ... Making kip.o cc1plus: error: invalid option `abi=apcs-gnu' make[1]: *** [kip.o] Error 1 -------------
3) Failure to build L4Re due to linker error
The symbol "__stack_chk_fail_local" is missing when building "libl4util.so" (see below). A quick objdump/grep doesn't show this symbol in any object file in the build directory - is the build system slightly broken? I see the source definition but don't really want to hack around in the build system.
