Cross Compile ltrace and include it in the disk image.

[angrave]

Some possible ways compile ltrace in jor1k:

1. Use jor1k

2. Use the old premade virtual box image (need to bunzip2 after downloading). Also these translated notes might be relevant -
   http://www.programmershare.com/3163928/
   (search for or32-linux-gcc)

http://opencores.org/or1k/Ubuntu_VirtualBox-image_updates_and_information
(download; bunzip2; fire up in virtualbox. For happiness also install vbox extensions)

1. Try to follow these inaccurate instructions -
   http://openrisc.net/toolchain-build.html

5 & 6. Try these two ways suggested by Sebastian -
(below is some email notes from concat'd together)

It provides you with a chroot environment and a virtual machine (qemu-user). This is by far the easiest way to develop for jor1k. No nasty cross compiling problems.

I haven't tested it yet because of lack of time today. Give it a try.
You should use Debian in a virtual machine or any other distribution.

The binfmt description however works only for Debian. But there similar solutions for each distribution.

I will also write the binfmt support in a way that it works in every distribution.

My binfmt kernel file looks like

> cat /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/qemu-or1k

enabled
interpreter /usr/bin/qemu-or1k-static
flags: OC
offset 0
magic 7f454c460102010000000000000000000002005c
mask fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffeffff

With the new manual it works for me.

The manual is now written, that it should run in every distribution with
and x86-64 architecture and a rather new kernel.
This qemu executable runs on my virtual machine with CentOS and kernel 2.6.32.

Unfortunately, cross compiling is a mess. This has been a problem since the last 20 years and will probably never be solved. To compile everything for the provided jor1k images took me more than 2 months.

qemu-user and bin-fmt is a nice tool to circumvent a lot of problems. Unfortunately, you need a specialized version of it because not all patches necessary are in the official qemu distribution.

cd sysroot
mkdir root
cd root
mkdir ltrace
cd ltrace
git clone git://git.debian.org/git/collab-maint/ltrace.git
./autogen.sh
cd ..
cd ..
cd ..
chroot qemu .... # the command from the online manual
cd /root/ltrace
./configure --build=or32-unknown-linux --prefix=/usr
make

unfortunately it expects the libelf libraries which I haven's installed yet.
