Error in building OE for MicroBlaze!

Error in building OE for MicroBlaze!

[Ali Akbar Zarezadeh]

Hi,

I am trying to build a Linux framework for ML605 (Virtex6 FPGA) from  
Xilinx. I took a look inside the OE, there are several complete  
solutions for PowerPC, but nothing for MicroBlaze. Hence, based on  
some useful notes from Mr. Adrian Alonso which I found in his blog, I  
have started to build a Linux framework for MicroBlaze. After solving  
several issues, now I get stuck at the compiling phase of gcc for  
MicroBlaze. An error occurs when OE tries to patch gcc. It is listed  
as follows:

microblaze is not powerpc. So you have that part wrong here.

This is the problem for your gcc issue above. OE gcc tracks the
gcc-4_5-branch and all patches are based on that
if you change the branch to something else then obviously patches wont
apply. You have two options here
if microblaze branch has distinct patches then apply them to 4_5
branch otherwise write new recipes for gcc which
use the microblaze branch.

Hope that helps.

Re: Error in building OE for MicroBlaze!

[Ali Akbar Zarezadeh]

Hi Again,

Since last week I changed my way to use the existing MicroBlaze  
toolchain provided by Xilinx (http://xilinx.wikidot.com/mb-gnu-tools)  
as an external toolchain in OE. Therefore, I modified my local.conf  
like this:

TARGET_VENDOR = "-none"
TOOLCHAIN_TYPE = "external"
TOOLCHAIN_BRAND = "csl"

MACHINE = "xilinx-ml605"
TARGET_ARCH = "microblaze"
TARGET_CPU = "microblaze"
TARGET_TUNE = "microblaze"
# Hardware project options
XILINX_BSP_PATH =  
"/home/akzare/Projects/PICSY/Hardware/SoC/EDK/virtex6/Segmentation/microblaze_0/libsrc/device-tree_v0_00_x"
XILINX_BOARD = "ml605"

I copied the Xilinx toolchain in this location:

/opt/local/LinuxKernel_mb/Tools_MB_BE/microblaze-unknown-linux-gnu/bin

and then:

export  
PATH=$PATH:/opt/local/LinuxKernel_mb/Tools_MB_BE/microblaze-unknown-linux-gnu/bin

And for distribution I use the minimal.conf + these lines:

#Machine specific tweaks, will move to its own include soon
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel = "linux-xilinx-ml605"
PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-xilinx-ml605 = "2.6.37"

I try to simply do: bitbake helloworld-image

This mechanism is successful up to 266'th task.

Now, I stop by this error:
