Description Stefan de Konink 2008-09-06 04:30:04 UTC
As discussed in #gentoo-embedded I'm compiling for a new platform.

Uclibc has some problems:

With respect to limit.h there are some other include errors, I wonder what the actual problem is in this case. If it is the ptrace.h that is not found or the regs having an incomplete type.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Wormo (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-09-06 07:10:29 UTC
The incomplete type for "regs" is a result of the missing ptrace.h, because ptrace.h defines struct pt_regs. 

Looks like your cris kernel headers have problems, they don't seem quite right in mainline kernels right now http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/721394/match=cris+header+brokenness

I think in your case either asm/arch-v10 or asm/arch-v32 should be linked as /usr/include/asm/arch, so that the proper version of ptrace.h will be found.
Comment 2 Stefan de Konink 2008-09-06 12:05:25 UTC
That patch mentioned there is available in a different form in the current 2.6.26. Now I presume the problem is in tc-arch-kernel (Linux headers).

Since cris is not defined it will go inho the eclass kernel-2 and end up in:

        *)
            dodir ${ddir}/asm
            cp -pPR "${S}"/include/asm/* ${D}/${ddir}/asm
            ;;

Shouldn't that copy everything? The second thing is ofcourse the symlink to 'arch'.

Comment 4 Stefan de Konink 2008-09-06 21:07:50 UTC
I have made some progress with the daily of uclibc... but I'm stuck at:

Without pthread I get a nice library... but that is pretty useless because gcc needs it...

Get cris and old pthreads working...

We need to work on the headers that are included, but this patch is probably fixing the compilation issue.
Comment 6 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2012-04-22 22:24:45 UTC
please submit cris patches upstream.  we'll review+merge them there.
