Cannot rebuild kernel in SDK 5.02 -- script errors

Jeffrey Franks

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OMAPL138

Hi,

We are unable to rebuild the kernel for SDK 5.02. I'm running on a 64-bit machine (don't know if that is a factor or not).

We fail early on "Basic Configuration of the Kernel", 2nd step of just setting the default configuration. The printout follows of that session.

Can someone suggest a work-around or fix for this?

Looks like the build is failing when building a host side tool. Odd thing is that it appears that cross-compiler is being using instead of the host compiler. Check that HOSTCC in the kernel Makefile is "gcc". Unlikely that it has been changed. Perhaps your host compiler "gcc" is symbolically linked to the cross-compiler. Try "which gcc" to see the path then "ls -l" on that path to see the link.

Everything looks right as follows . . . .

HOSTCC = gcc in the kernel Makefile

$ which gcc

/usr/bin/gcc

ls -l /usr/bin/gcc

/usr/bin/gcc -> gcc-4.4

ls -l /usr/bin/gcc-4.4

/usr/bin/gcc-4.4

Any ideas?

The issue is resolved.

The problem is that I sourced the environment setup file previous to building the kernel (see original post).

I only need to setup a path to the cross compile and nothing more.

Thankyou Jeffrey! I was suffering the same problem and your solution worked for me.

I'll post what I did in case anyone else needs help:

1) I found the directory inside the SDK where the compilers live (for me it was something like /home/andrew/ti-sdk-xxx-yyy-zzz/linux-devkit/bin)
2) I added it to PATH (eg. export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/compilers)
3) I did not use the environment-setup script
4) I went and compiled my kernel and everything worked.
