Checking out 2020.08 and using the following config from the CI job.
BR2_powerpc64le=y
BR2_powerpc_power8=y
BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_4_9=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_CXX=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_FORTRAN=y

BR2_INIT_NONE=y
BR2_SYSTEM_BIN_SH_NONE=y
# BR2_PACKAGE_BUSYBOX is not set
BR2_PACKAGE_GDB=y
# BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_TAR is not set
I see this error:
../../../libgfortran/libgfortran.h:61:12: fatal error:
quadmath_weak.h: No such file or directory
I did notice that if I did a basic build below using current defaults,
it doesn't fail.
BR2_powerpc64=y
BR2_powerpc_power8=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_CXX=y
BR2_INIT_NONE=y
# BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_TAR is not set
I'll do some analysis between the builds

Ah, so it's enabling the Fortran support that makes it fail to build. I
see that it is including quadmath_weak.h only if HAVE_FLOAT128 is
enabled:
#ifdef HAVE_FLOAT128
# include "quadmath_weak.h"
#endif
I suppose PowerPC64 has HAVE_FLOAT128 enabled, and not other
architectures ?
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=82292 has some context,
and concludes with "Yeah, I think this is user error.". Seems like
we're not passing the appropriate enable/disable libquadmath options.

Disregard the successful build above, I forgot to enable fortran.
It looks like the powerpc64 is detecting __float128 and is trying to
use the quadmath library which we disable. I'll check to see if the
change should be in the libfortran configure stage or what is being
passed to gcc final.

My original understanding was that just the IBM families with ISA 3.0+
could do float128 [1]. Turns out any Power ISA v.2.06+ (64bit powerpc
NXP & IBM) should be able to have quadmath enabled and the stdlib may
emulate as needed [2].
I'm still testing a series of builds (e5500, e6500, power6/7/8) but I
believe the fix is to just add power64(big/le) to the condition to
enable quadmath (BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_LIBQUADMATH).
config BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_LIBQUADMATH
bool
default y if BR2_i386 || BR2_x86_64 || BR2_powerpc64 || BR2_powerpc64le
Are you able to make this change in your toolchain builder branch of
buildroot and validate the IBM and e5500 toolchains create images that
can login? I can send a patch to the mailing list as well

But in your exercise mentioned above do you really need only gdbserver?
I understand that full GDB might be quite an overkill for a tiny target but
it might not be installed onto the target rootfs, right?
So what if for GDB 10+ we'll add an installation quirk which will remove
full GDB from "output/target" if we only want gdbsever?

I'm building cross-compilation toolchains, in which we only want
gdbserver for the target, not the full gdb.

Building the full blown gdb would also require building its
dependencies, i.e ncurses and possibly libiconv. Building only
gdbserver allows to avoid that.
I've got some feedback from upstream though, they pointed to:
https://github.com/bminor/binutils-gdb/blob/master/gdbserver/README#L86
which explains what is the supported way of building just gdbserver.
We'll have to test this, and see if it works not only with recent GDB,
but also older GDB versions that we still support.

That's an interesting finding indeed.
So do you need any further help with that from our side now?
BTW I was eagerly waiting for the next official GDB release
(v10, which was supposed to happen a while ago according to
https://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/schedule/) so that we may come-up with a more
generic solution rather than just ARC quirk but the reality is there's no release
and no ETAs I'm aware of so most probably we'll need to come-up with a custom
quirk for now :(

Do you have any steps to reproduce this?
I tried `make qemu_riscv32_virt_defconfig; make` in buildroot and I
don't see any failures.
I tried `./build.sh riscv32-ilp32d--glibc--bleeding-edge testing
buildroot-toolchains/toolchains.bootlin.com-2020.08 2020.08-1` in the
toolchains-builder, but I'm missing
frags/riscv32-ilp32d--glibc--bleeding-edge.config.
I then tried `frags/riscv32-ilp32d--glibc--bleeding-edge.config` but
it doesn't generate a RV32 frag.
What am I missing?

I don't recommend trying to use the toolchains-builder stuff. For now
it's not really designed to be executed locally. This is something I
want to fix, but I'm not there yet.

I don't see any errors using this config with buildroot. Do I need to
do anything else?

Sorry for the slow feedback. I retested the above defconfig, and it
fails to build here. Did you try on the 2020.08 tag, with no change ?
Perhaps you tried on master and something fixed this on master after
2020.08 ?
Thanks,
Thomas

Yep, that doesn't work.
That branch is missing the patches to use upstream glibc:
* acc1330d4a configs/qemu_riscv32_virt: use Linux 5.4 kernel (by
Alistair Francis 3 weeks ago)
* a4889545aa package/glibc: use upstream glibc for RISC-V 32-bit (by
Alistair Francis 3 weeks ago)
Because of that the kernel headers need to be patched to add support
for a 32-bit time_t.
This change in the defconfig should fix that:
BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR="board/qemu/riscv32-virt/patches/"
Although it looks like the kernel build is also required to get the
patches to take effect:
# Kernel
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL=y
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_VERSION=y
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_VERSION_VALUE="5.1.12"
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_DEFCONFIG="rv32"
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_IMAGE=y
Although applying the two commits mentioned above would be a much better option.

Thanks a lot for the feedback, it makes sense. To me, it illustrates
very well that the solution of having patches for the kernel headers
that only apply to a specific defconfig doesn't work: whenever someone
builds a system from scratch without using a defconfig, such patches
are not applied.

Yep, makes sense. Luckily we no longer need them for RV32 :)

Hi,
never tried to build specifically for risc-v before but being curious I
tried to reproduce the problem and yes: 2020.08 fails, master works.
To fix the problem with 2020.08 please cherry-pick

This is our usual aarch64 + musl + gdb issue due to the kernel headers < 5.0.
You already fixed it by applying a patch to linux-headers package to a custom
branch in the bootlin repository.
Maybe we should use kernel headers 5.4 for the bleeding-edge toolchain since we
use a kernel 5.4 in the qemu defconfig.
(Is the kernel headers 5.4 too bleeding-edge for bleeding-edge toolchains ? :) )

I'm not sure there is a regular Maintainer for Microblaze
For example, last time glibc has been tested on Microblaze
https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Release/2.29#MicroBlaze
https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Release/2.30#MicroBlaze
https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Release/2.31#MicroBlaze
https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Release/2.32#MicroBlaze
I'll to take a look...
