I would like to know what version of gcc is currently available to build linux kernels on Linux/Sparc64. I would like the builds to generate 64-bit executables.

Just use egc64 if its only for the kernel, or if you want to for the kernel and some packages use gcc3

I should have asked more specifically. But I am trying to compile user-mode-linux on Ultrasparc(running Debian). egcs64 compiles just kernelspace code. I want to know what compiler can be used to build user-mode-linux(which contains some userspace and some kernelspace code) 64-bit on Ultrasparc? gcc-3.0 seems to give problems with linker. I am not sure if any other version of gcc is capable of doing that.

Thanks in advance

Have you get the chance to try it with gcc-3.1? anyways gcc-3.2 was scheduled to be released on 2002-07-2x so it should be released at any moment, and the linker problems should be solved

Hi,

Just use egc64 if its only for the kernel, or if you want to for the kernel and some packages use gcc3

Problems:

egcs64: fails to compile 2.5 for me, because it doesn't support the
current syntax
gcc3.1: 1 unexpected failure is not too bad, but 25 unexpected successes
aren't too encouraging...
