Searching for compiler

jmtroth — Fri, 06 Jun 2014 00:33:18 GMT

Hello,

I just started evaluating the P4080PCIe stand alone and I'm looking to use the compiler and am instructed by the documentation it's in ltib but it isn't. Could someone point me in the right direction?

Sincerely,

John

You could use the Compiler integrated into ltib Linux BSP, which could be downloaded from P4080PCIE: P4080PCIe Integrated Multicore Communications Processor Development System, after install ltib, the Toolchain is located in /opt/freescale/usr/local.

Have a great day,

Hi,

Thank you for your answer, I am currently in the process of installing ltib. However, I am getting a strange error. The file "ltib", when run, says it's "Failed building cst". I can't seem to find a solution to this after googling, any suggestions?

Sincerely,

John

Edit: For clarity, this is the file 'ltib-e500mc-20110415/ltib' I'm directed to run from 'ltib-e500mc-20110415/doc/LtibInstall'

Would you please share your procedure and the Linux console log?

Please mount the LTIB ISO and execute "./install" to install ltib and build environment, after the installation, you will find Toolchain is deployed in /opt/freescale/usr/local/. If you want to build images with ltib, please enter into ltib installation folder ltib-e500mc-20110415 and run "./ltib -c" to configure and build images.

After the command ./install the folder /opt/freescale/usr/local does not exist.

Breaking off reply chain for visual simplicity...

Already took care of the issue in host_config.log in my last post, here is an updated version after removing /opt/freescale/ltib/usr/src/rpm/BUILD/isbc_cst. (it still fails to build CST)

Re: Searching for compiler

yipingwang — Thu, 12 Jun 2014 06:16:32 GMT

According to your build log, I think installing "openssl" on your host could solve this cst build problem.

Have a great day,
Yiping Wang

Re: Searching for compiler

yipingwang — Thu, 12 Jun 2014 07:03:26 GMT

I have verified the installation, after install Ltib, the Toolchain should be located in /opt/freescale/usr/local/gcc-4.5.55-eglibc-2.11.55/powerpc-linux-gnu, please make sure you have write permission in /opt folder.

About Ltib build problem, please install "glibc-devel" and "zlib" on your build host.

If the problem remains after install these packages, please check the script bin/Ltibutils.pm in Ltib install folder,you will find the check condition as the following.

glibc-devel => existing '/usr/lib/libm.so' or -f '/usr/lib64/libz.so'

zlib => existing '/usr/lib/libz.so*'or '/lib/libz.so*' or '/lib64/libz.so

Please modify these check conditions according to your local environment.

Have a great day,

I appear to already have openssl:

Re: Searching for compiler

yipingwang — Mon, 16 Jun 2014 09:13:51 GMT

All the required link functions (SHA256_Update,SHA256_Init, PEM_read_RSAPublicKey, RSA_free etc) are included in /opt/freescale/ltib/usr/lib/libcrypto.so(libcrypto.so.0.9.8), which should be deployed by host openssl package(built by ltib).

Please try to use apt-get remove to uninstall openssl on the host, and use Ltib to build and deploy host openssl, please check host_config.log to make sure that openssl has been rebuilt.(Probably you need to reinstall ltib ISO or use the command ./ltib --hostcf -p openssl .)

Have a great day,
Yiping Wang

Re: Re: Searching for compiler

jmtroth — Mon, 16 Jun 2014 21:39:47 GMT

Thanks for the response, I did as suggested but unfortunately received the same error. I've attached host_config.log. This sounded like a good fix, it's too bad it didn't work. I'm fairly certain openssl was uninstalled by me and reinstalled by ltib correctly, it's puzzling that cst still failed to load.

Re: Searching for compiler

yipingwang — Tue, 17 Jun 2014 08:56:16 GMT

Actually I have installed this ISO on a clean ubuntu machine, and I didn't reproduce your problem.

If this problem remains, please try to use the following method to cancel CST host package building and move on your current task.

1. #rm config/platform/host/.config

2. Edit the file config/platform/host/ltib.preconfig and comment these lines.

CONFIG_CST=y

CONFIG_CST_PKG_BUILD=y

CONFIG_PKG_CST="cst"

3. Then run this command "./ltib --hostcf" to do host deployment.

The host cst related commands has already provided in bin/cst folder, you could use them if needed.

Have a great day,
Yiping Wang

Re: Re: Searching for compiler

jmtroth — Tue, 17 Jun 2014 15:43:57 GMT

.config did not exist before the rm command. I've commented out those lines in ltib.preconfig, and still receive the error. I also put in garbage text before CONFIG_CST=y and it's not detected, implying ltib.preconfig is not being used to begin with.

Re: Re: Re: Searching for compiler

yipingwang — Wed, 18 Jun 2014 07:10:57 GMT

The file config/platform/host/host.config is also the temporary file, if it exists, please remove it, I attached ltib.preconfig file you.

If your problem remains, please use the direct way, remove /opt/freescale and ltib-e500mc-20110415 folders, and reinstall the ltib ISO again, then use the attached file to replace config/platform/host/ltib.preconfig, and perform ltib build.

Have a great day,
Yiping Wang

Re: Re: Re: Re: Searching for compiler

jmtroth — Wed, 18 Jun 2014 21:09:35 GMT

Thanks for the file. I have done as you instructed and the cst error is gone, replaced with one about sparse. I did a google search and found no clear fixes. Please find log attached.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Searching for compiler

jmtroth — Fri, 20 Jun 2014 21:53:45 GMT

I found a patch for various issues (Ltibutils.zip here: [LTIB] LTIB on Ubuntu 12.04 :: Chune's.... ) in which I used sparse.sh for 'sparse', but ltib still failed on 'pme_tools'. However, opting to forego ltib I was able to successfully build a hello world program for the P4080 through Code Warrior. Thanks for all your help Yiping Wang!
