| 5 | <para>Now that the temporary C libraries have been installed, we want all
|
|---|
| 6 | the tools compiled in the rest of this chapter to be linked against these
|
|---|
| 7 | libraries. To accomplish this, we need to adjust the linker's scripts and the
|
|---|
| 8 | compiler's specs file.</para>
|
|---|
| 9 |
|
|---|
| 10 | <para>First install the adjusted linker scripts by running the following from
|
|---|
| 11 | within the <filename class="directory">binutils-build</filename>
|
|---|
| 12 | directory:</para>
|
|---|
| 13 |
|
|---|
| 14 | <para><screen><userinput>make -C ld install-data-local</userinput></screen></para>
|
|---|
| 15 |
|
|---|
| 16 | <para>These scripts were adjusted a little while back, at the end of the first
|
|---|
| 17 | pass of Binutils, and contain no mention of <filename>/lib</filename>,
|
|---|
| 18 | <filename>/usr/lib</filename> or <filename>/usr/local/lib</filename>.
|
|---|
| 19 | From this point onwards everything will link <emphasis>only</emphasis>
|
|---|
| 20 | against the libraries in <filename>/tools/lib</filename>.</para>
|
|---|
| 21 |
|
|---|
| 22 | <para>Now that the scripts are adjusted, you have to remove the Binutils
|
|---|
| 23 | build and source directories.</para>
|
|---|
| 24 |
|
|---|
| 25 | <para>The next thing to do is to amend our GCC specs file so that it points
|
|---|
| 26 | to the new dynamic linker. A simple sed will accomplish this:</para>
|
|---|
| 27 |
|
|---|
| 28 | <para><screen><userinput>SPECFILE=/tools/lib/gcc-lib/*/*/specs
|
|---|
| 29 | sed -e 's@/lib/ld.so.1@/tools/lib/ld.so.1@g' \
|
|---|
| 30 | -e 's@/lib/ld-linux.so.2@/tools/lib/ld-linux.so.2@g' \
|
|---|
| 31 | $SPECFILE > tempspecfile
|
|---|
| 32 | mv tempspecfile $SPECFILE
|
|---|
| 33 | unset SPECFILE</userinput></screen></para>
|
|---|
| 34 |
|
|---|
| 35 | <para>We recommend that you cut-and-paste the above rather than try and type it
|
|---|
| 36 | all in. Or you can edit the specs file by hand if you want to: just replace
|
|---|
| 37 | "/lib/ld-linux.so.2" with "/tools/lib/ld-linux.so.2" and "/lib/ld.so.1" with
|
|---|
| 38 | "/tools/lib/ld.so.1".</para>
|
|---|
| 39 |
|
|---|
| 40 | <para>Lastly, there is a possibility that some include files from the host
|
|---|
| 41 | system have found their way into gcc's private include dir. This can happen
|
|---|
| 42 | because of GCC's "fixincludes" process which runs as part of the GCC build.
|
|---|
| 43 | We'll explain more about this further on in this chapter. For now, run the
|
|---|
| 44 | following commands to eliminate this possibility.</para>
|
|---|
| 45 |
|
|---|
| 46 | <para><screen><userinput>rm -f /tools/lib/gcc-lib/*/*/include/{pthread.h,bits/sigthread.h}</userinput></screen></para>
|
|---|
| 47 |
|
|---|
| 48 | <para>This completes the installation of the self-contained toolchain, which
|
|---|
| 49 | can now be used to build the rest of the temporary tools.</para>
