#834 "mipsel" isn't a usable value for $CLFS_ARCH BOOK CLFS Embedded 1.0.0 task 04/25/11

In kernel 2.6.38 (and maybe others, haven't checked), a value of "mipsel" isn't valid for the way we use it in the Linux headers installation. The value needs to be "mips" for all variants of mips target triplets.

The offending sed line is:

export CLFS_ARCH=$(echo ${CLFS_TARGET} | sed -e 's/\(mips\)\(64\)\?\(el\)\?-.*/\1\3/')

Could changing this to just be "mips" rather than a possible "mipsel" be bad in other places in the book?

#913 Embedded Errata page doesn't exist in wiki BOOK CLFS Embedded 1.0.0 defect 09/22/12

Section vii links to http://trac.cross-lfs.org/clfs-embedded/errata/0.0.1/ but no such page on the wiki exists.

Secondary to that, we've not released any version besides the 'git' version, so having errata is somewhat pointless.

#914 Embedded book doesn't need a partition created BOOK CLFS Embedded 1.0.0 enhancement 09/22/12

Most people who will build the embedded book won't create a partition on a local disk, they'll want to build in a temporary directory and then "copy to target" (like that section with the same name).

Thus the entirety of section 2 is not really needed and should simply be replaced with something along the lines of "Setting up the build directory" or similar.

#833 Fix up mdev.conf BOOK CLFS Embedded 1.0.0 task 04/10/11

Our mdev.conf may not be the best example of how to do an mdev.conf. Based on this mailing list thread ( http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/busybox/2009-November/070889.html), the busybox people feel we may have an older version of an example mdev.conf that could not be exploiting all the features of mdev.

Take a look at if mdev.conf should be updated to better fit with current busybox ideals.

The current mdev.conf works for me, so this isn't a huge priority.

#835 GCC 4.6.0 kernel compile failure and -Werror=unused-but-set-variable BOOK CLFS Embedded 1.0.0 defect 04/29/11

When building kernels with GCC 4.6.0 the new way GCC deals with -Werror and unused-but-set-variable is slightly different than on GCC 4.5. Now, kernel compiles that set but don't use variables in a whole bunch of places will cause the make to fail. That's nice of GCC to point out these types of warnings and the kernel Makefile wants these warnings, but we don't really want the make to stop because of them.

See -dev mailing list thread finding this on a MIPS build:  http://lists.cross-lfs.org/pipermail/clfs-dev-cross-lfs.org/2011-April/000941.html

LKML also found this on PowerPC:  https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/9/229

The proposed workaround is some sed'ing but there might be kernel patches in the works as well to simply fix this. Best would be to fix the offending source files so the warnings don't come up in the first place and keep -Werror but I'm not a kernel hacker (at least not yet).

#917 Kirk Terrell's Notes BOOK CLFS Embedded 1.0.0 defect 01/30/13

I did have some issues that I was able to work through, not quite sure where to submit. By section they are

3.2 Binutils-2,21 is not avialble

6.4 None is not a good setting for --with-fpu

6.10/6.12 I think the --with-fpu should be omitted when using soft

6.11 uClibc requires an additional patch - the new Binutils does not like the .size

The .config file need to have the ${CLFS} patched - it would not allow for double

expansion. SO ${CLFS} did not become /mnt/clfs as desired.

7.4 I would add make clean to busybox

16.1 Should also remove ${CLFS}/sources when making ${CLFS}-final

Another option would be to use /usr/src rather than /sources

#832 Move e2fsprogs and other filesys stuff into beyond BOOK CLFS Embedded 1.0.0 enhancement 04/09/11

e2fsprogs isn't required for an embedded build, it should move into the beyond section.

It would also be nice to have software for other filesystems that could be used. Those should also go into the beyond section. Short list: ext*, jffs2, squash, reiser2, jfs, xfs, etcetera...

See mailing list thread:  http://lists.cross-lfs.org/pipermail/clfs-dev-cross-lfs.org/2011-April/000917.html

#911 Simplify uClibc configuration patch BOOK CLFS Embedded 1.0.0 enhancement 09/12/12

The uClibc config patch ends up producing a bunch of files that each are mostly the same except for the items referencing architecture and sub-arch type things (like endianness, api version, etc).

It would be much easier to maintain if there was just have one simple config picking sane defaults and a few short sed lines to add the proper arch and sub-arch type things.

#906 libgcc won't compile in section 6.10 BOOK CLFS Embedded 1.0.0 task 07/20/12

Outputs: 

checking for suffix of object files... configure: error: in
`/home/clfs-arm/sources/gcc-build/armv4-unknown-linux-uclibc/libgcc':
configure: error: cannot compute suffix of object files: cannot compile

Needs patching of gcc. This is for armv4t 'soft' float aapcs. Both gcc 4.6.0 and 4.6.1 have this issue.

#876 uClibc 0.9.31 and Binutils 2.21 are incompatible for x86 builds BOOK CLFS Embedded 1.0.0 defect 11/27/11

When building uClibc 0.9.31 for x86, you'll get an error looking like: 

/tmp/ccJ804J6.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccJ804J6.s: Error: .size expression for _init does not evaluate to a constant
/tmp/ccJ804J6.s: Error: .size expression for _fini does not evaluate to a constant
  CC libm/asinf.os
