[ptxdist] OSELAS Toolchain for ARM-v7em with newlib and c++ support

[ptxdist] OSELAS Toolchain for ARM-v7em with newlib and c++ support

[Luis Grünewald]

Hello,

I am trying to build the Oselas-Toolchain using the following setup:

- HOST-OS: Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS
- HOST-CPU: 11th Gen Intel(R) Core (TM) i7-1165G7 @ 2.80GHz × 8
- Osleas project: OSELAS.Toolchain-2022.10.0 (https://git.pengutronix.de/cgit/OSELAS.Toolchain/tag/?h=v2022.10.0)
- Ptxdist Version: ptxdist-2023.01.0 (https://public.pengutronix.de/software/ptxdist/)

To build the toolchain I am doing the following steps:

1. Selecting the ptxconfig : arm-v7em-eabihf_gcc-12.2.1_newlib-4.2.0.20211231_binutils-2.39
2. using "ptxdist migrate" to update .ptxconfg
3. Since I need support for C++, I add C++ as an "Additional supported language" using "ptxdist menuconfig"
4. unsing the "build_one.sh arm-v7em-eabihf_gcc-12.2.1_newlib-4.2.0.20211231_binutils-2.39" to build the toolchain

build_one.sh fails with the following error:

More Errors can be found in <OSELAS.Toolchain-2022.10.0/platform-arm-v7em-eabihf-gcc-12.2.1-newlib-4.2.0.20211231-binutils-2.39/build-cross/gcc-12-20221022-build/arm-v7em-eabihf/libstdc++-v3/config.log>.
Here is a link to my libstdc++-v3/config.log : https://controlc.com/a342dcd8

Building the toolchain using the "arm-v7em-eabihf_gcc-12.2.1_newlib-4.2.0.20211231_binutils-2.39.ptxconfig" without any changes works fine.
But after using "debain/bin/build.sh" to build the .deb package, in the /bin folder the link called "arm-v7em-eabihf-g++" is broken.

Do you have any suggestion how to build the Oslastoolchain using the "arm-v7em-eabihf_gcc-12.2.1_newlib-4.2.0.20211231_binutils-2.39.ptxconfig" so that in the end the "g++" compiler will be included ?


Best regards,
Luis

Not the cause of your specific problem, but in general, you should always
use the ptxdist version that is specified in the ptxconfig files. 2022.10.0
in this case. Using a newer version can cause problems.

Sorry, not really. The C++ compiler is disabled for all newlib toolchains.
I think there is something broken there in general, but I've not looked
into that for a long time.
