| 1 | +# Build RISC-V GNU Toolchain For Nuclei |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +This guide is used to provide steps for build windows and linux version of **RISC-V GNU Toolchain for Nuclei**. |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +## Get toolchain sources |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +This repository uses submodules. You need the `--recursive` option to fetch the submodules automatically. |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +The Nuclei maintained source code is located in **nuclei-multilib** branch, please use this branch. |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +~~~ |
| 12 | +cd ~ |
| 13 | +git clone https://github.com/riscv-mcu/riscv-gnu-toolchain |
| 14 | +git checkout nuclei-multilib |
| 15 | +git submodule update --init --recursive |
| 16 | +~~~ |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +## Install prerequisites |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +To build windows or linux version, you need to choose a proper version of linux distribution, here we recommend to use **Ubuntu 16.04 64bit** version, you can use docker tool to easily get this version if you already have installed Ubuntu. |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +You also need to install extra packages to build toolchain: |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +* To build linux toolchain, you need to install following packages using this command below: |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | + ~~~shell |
| 27 | + sudo apt-get install autoconf automake autotools-dev bc bison \ |
| 28 | + build-essential curl dejagnu expect flex gawk gperf libtool patchutils texinfo |
| 29 | + ~~~ |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +* To build windows toolchain, you need to install following packages using this command below: |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | + ~~~shell |
| 34 | + sudo apt-get install autoconf automake autotools-dev bc bison \ |
| 35 | + build-essential curl dejagnu expect flex gawk gperf \ |
| 36 | + libtool patchutils texinfo python3 zip \ |
| 37 | + mingw-w64 gdb-mingw-w64 libz-mingw-w64-dev |
| 38 | + ~~~ |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +For windows build, you also need to build `libexpat` using command below: |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +~~~shell |
| 43 | + wget https://github.com/libexpat/libexpat/releases/download/R_2_2_9/expat-2.2.9.tar.bz2 |
| 44 | + tar -xjf expat-2.2.9.tar.bz2 |
| 45 | + cd expat-2.2.9 |
| 46 | + ./configure --host=i686-w64-mingw32 --prefix=/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/ |
| 47 | + make -j4 |
| 48 | + sudo make install |
| 49 | + ~~~ |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +And then remove `zlib1.dll` and `libexpat-1.dll` using commands below(**execute using sudo**): |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +~~~shell |
| 54 | + for i in `find /usr/i686-w64-mingw32/ -name "*.dll"`; do sudo mv $i $i.bak; done |
| 55 | + [ -f /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib/zlib1.dll ] && sudo mv /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib/zlib1.dll /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib/zlib1.dll.bak |
| 56 | + [ -f /usr/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/libexpat.dll.a ] && sudo mv /usr/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/libexpat.dll.a /usr/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/libexpat.dll.a.bak |
| 57 | + [ -f /usr/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/libz.dll.a ] && sudo mv /usr/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/libz.dll.a /usr/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/libz.dll.a.bak |
| 58 | + [ -f /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib/libz.dll.a ] && sudo mv /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib/libz.dll.a /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib/libz.dll.a.bak |
| 59 | + ~~~ |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | +## Build Linux Toolchain |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +**Make sure you have installed the required prerequisites and downloaded toolchain source code before build toolchain.** |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | +Assumed your toolchain source code located in `~/riscv-gnu-toolchain`, and you want to build toolchain to `$HOME/riscv_lin`. |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +1. You can execute the following commands to build for **linux baremetal/newlib** toolchain: |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | + ~~~shell |
| 70 | + cd ~/riscv-gnu-toolchain |
| 71 | + export PREFIX=${HOME}/riscv_lin |
| 72 | + # Configure linux newlibc x64 build and enable multilib |
| 73 | + ./configure --with-arch=rv32gc --enable-multilib --prefix=$PREFIX --with-cmodel=medany |
| 74 | + # Download extra prerequisites(GMP, MPFR and MPC libraries) |
| 75 | + # see https://gcc.gnu.org/install/download.html |
| 76 | + cd ./riscv-gcc/ && ./contrib/download_prerequisites |
| 77 | + cd - |
| 78 | + # change toolchain name to nuclei |
| 79 | + sed -i -e 's/make_tuple = riscv$(1)-unknown-$(2)/make_tuple = riscv-nuclei-$(2)/g' Makefile |
| 80 | + # If you want to build faster, you can change -j4 to -j |
| 81 | + export MAKE="make -j4" |
| 82 | + # Build toolchain, may cost about 1 hour depend on your machine |
| 83 | + make |
| 84 | + ~~~ |
| 85 | + |
| 86 | +2. You can strip unused symbols to downsize the binaries using commands below if toolchain is built successfully, and tar the toolchain to `nuclei_gcc_lin64.tar.bz2`: |
| 87 | + |
| 88 | + ~~~shell |
| 89 | + cd $PREFIX |
| 90 | + set +e |
| 91 | + # Strip unused symbols in toolchain binaries |
| 92 | + for i in `find libexec bin -type f`; do strip -s $i ; done |
| 93 | + cd .. |
| 94 | + # archive the toolchain |
| 95 | + tar -jcf nuclei_gcc_lin64.tar.bz2 riscv_lin |
| 96 | + ~~~ |
| 97 | + |
| 98 | +3. Then you can use this toolchain in linux 64bit environment with your riscv software. |
| 99 | + |
| 100 | +If you want to check for sample build log, you can check our successful github ci build, such as https://github.com/riscv-mcu/riscv-gnu-toolchain/runs/1315017585 |
| 101 | + |
| 102 | +If you want to build for **linux glibc toolchain**, you can replace the **step 1** above with commands below, toolchain installed to `$HOME/riscv_glibc_lin`: |
| 103 | + |
| 104 | +~~~shell |
| 105 | +cd ~/riscv-gnu-toolchain |
| 106 | +export PREFIX=${HOME}/riscv_glibc_lin |
| 107 | +# Configure linux glibc x64 build and enable multilib |
| 108 | +./configure --prefix=$PREFIX --with-arch=rv64gc --with-abi=lp64d --enable-multilib --with-cmodel=medany |
| 109 | +# Download extra prerequisites(GMP, MPFR and MPC libraries) |
| 110 | +# see https://gcc.gnu.org/install/download.html |
| 111 | +cd ./riscv-gcc/ && ./contrib/download_prerequisites |
| 112 | +cd - |
| 113 | +# change toolchain name to nuclei |
| 114 | +sed -i -e 's/make_tuple = riscv$(1)-unknown-$(2)/make_tuple = riscv-nuclei-$(2)/g' Makefile |
| 115 | +# If you want to build faster, you can change -j4 to -j |
| 116 | +export MAKE="make -j4" |
| 117 | +# Build toolchain, may cost about 1 hour depend on your machine |
| 118 | +make linux |
| 119 | +~~~ |
| 120 | + |
| 121 | +## Build Windows Toolchain |
| 122 | + |
| 123 | +**Make sure you have installed the required prerequisites and downloaded toolchain source code before building toolchain.** |
| 124 | + |
| 125 | +**You already build nuclei riscv toolchain for linux, and installed it into `$HOME/riscv_lin`.** |
| 126 | + |
| 127 | +Assumed your toolchain source code located in `~/riscv-gnu-toolchain`, and you want to build toolchain to `$HOME/riscv_win`. |
| 128 | + |
| 129 | +1. Export riscv nuclei linux toolchain to path to build newlib library for **windows baremetal/newlib** toolchain. |
| 130 | + |
| 131 | + ~~~shell |
| 132 | + export PATH=$HOME/riscv_lin/bin:$PATH |
| 133 | + ~~~ |
| 134 | + |
| 135 | +2. You can execute the following commands to build for windows toolchain: |
| 136 | + |
| 137 | + ~~~shell |
| 138 | + cd ~/riscv-gnu-toolchain |
| 139 | + export PREFIX=${HOME}/riscv_win |
| 140 | + # Configure w32 newlibc build and enable multilib |
| 141 | + ./configure --with-arch=rv32gc --enable-multilib --prefix=$PREFIX --with-host=i686-w64-mingw32 --with-cmodel=medany |
| 142 | + # Download extra prerequisites(GMP, MPFR and MPC libraries) |
| 143 | + # see https://gcc.gnu.org/install/download.html |
| 144 | + cd ./riscv-gcc/ && ./contrib/download_prerequisites |
| 145 | + cd - |
| 146 | + # change toolchain name to nuclei |
| 147 | + sed -i -e 's/make_tuple = riscv$(1)-unknown-$(2)/make_tuple = riscv-nuclei-$(2)/g' Makefile |
| 148 | + # If you want to build faster, you can change -j4 to -j |
| 149 | + export MAKE="make -j4" |
| 150 | + # Build toolchain, may cost about 1 hour depend on your machine |
| 151 | + make |
| 152 | + ~~~ |
| 153 | + |
| 154 | +2. You can strip unused symbols to downsize the binaries using commands below if toolchain is built successfully, and zip the toolchain to `nuclei_gcc_win32.zip`: |
| 155 | + |
| 156 | + ~~~shell |
| 157 | + cd $PREFIX |
| 158 | + # Strip unused symbols in toolchain binaries |
| 159 | + for i in `find . -name *.dll`; do i686-w64-mingw32-strip -s $i ; done |
| 160 | + for i in `find . -name *.exe`; do i686-w64-mingw32-strip -s $i ; done |
| 161 | + cd .. |
| 162 | + # zip the toolchain |
| 163 | + zip -r -9 nuclei_gcc_win32.zip riscv_win |
| 164 | + ~~~ |
| 165 | + |
| 166 | +3. Then you can use this toolchain in windows with your riscv software. |
| 167 | + |
| 168 | +If you want to check for sample build log, you can check our successful github ci build, such as https://github.com/riscv-mcu/riscv-gnu-toolchain/runs/1315673828 |
