Help ! Cross Compiler installation for Simple Scalar

["pretoria" <pretoria at pchome dot com dot tw>]

Dear All:

 

I'm installing a cross compiler which will generate code for Simple Scalar simulator ( http://www.cs.wisc.edu/%7Eaustin/simplescalar.html )

The Base compiler I'm using is gcc-2.7.2.3

I encounter several problems in the installation of cross-compiler

I am working on Redhat Linux-6.2 in AMD K6-II 350

The installation process is shown as follows.

 

1. The installation of binutils-2.5.2:

 $cd SimpleScalar/binutils-2.5.2

 $configure --host=i386-*-linux --target=sslittle-na-sstrix --with-gnu-as
        --with-gnu-ld --prefix=/home/pretoria/SScalar

 $make
 $make install

 

There were not any problem in the installation of binutils-2.5.2

 

2. The installation of gcc-2.7.2.3

 $cd SimpleScalar/gcc-2.7.2.3
 $configure --host=i386-*-linux --target=sslittle-na-sstrix --with-gnu-as
        --with-gnu-ld --prefix=/home/pretoria/SScalar
 $make LANGUAGES=c

 

The following error occured during the make of gcc-2.7.2.3:

 

echo "__foo () {}" > dummy.c
./xgcc -B./ -DCROSS_COMPILE -DIN_GCC   -g -I./include -c dummy.c
as: unrecognized option `-EL'
make: *** [libgcc1.null] Error 1

 

I have checked the setting of Makefile to see where is the " unrecognized option `-EL'  " .

The command I used :

$make -p

 

I cannot find out any option passed to the program " as " during the compilation process.

 

Is there anyone who get any idea about this problem ?
