arm-xilinx-eabi-gcc seems to be missing

Hi,

this might be a siple problem but i dont get it.

I try to complete the Xilinx Zed Board "Hello World" tutorial.

Its all fine but when I try to compile it i get a message at my terminal which says "Unable to find full Path for arm-xilinx-eabi-gcc"

I thought this would be a missing compiler for the ARM system.

How can i solve this?

I work on Scientific Linux with Xilinx EDK 14.2

Thanks for any help!!

Wuddl,

Did you follow this how-to?:

http://wiki.xilinx.com/zynq-tools

I just followed them the other night and it looks to be updated and working for Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (note you will have to do some additional steps and install some additional 32 bit packages, however they are outlined here: https://sourcery.mentor.com/GNUToolchain/kbentry62)

Hope that helps!

Take a look at the open source option as well (gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi):

Hi Wuddl,

I suppose it is possible that somehow the cross toolchain was not installed on your machine during the 14.2 install or the path was not setup correctly.

If you want to reinstall the cross toolchain and are using Windows, you will want to look to the installer DVD or download folder for the CodeSourcery installers:

Xilinx_ISE_DS_14.2_P.28xd.3.0CodeSourcery
t

Or this folder if you are running Xilinx tools on Linux:

Xilinx_ISE_DS_14.2_P.28xd.3.0CodeSourcerylin

Regards,

-Kevin

There was simply the CROSS_COMPILE variable missing.

Just go to the link Tim posted, download the tools and export the PATH it.
Like:

export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-xilinx-linux-gnueabi-
and
export PATH=<path>/CodeSourcery/2011.09/lin/Sourcery_CodeBench_Lite/bin:$PATH
(I presume that you work under Linux)

I am running ISE 14.3 on Ubuntu 12.10.

I set CROSS_COMPILE and PATH as I did in ubuntu 12.04 but xsdk doesn't seem to pick it up. I get

make all
Building file: ../src/ddr_init.c
/bin/sh: 1: arm-xilinx-eabi-gcc: not found

It looks like it is still looking for xilinx's version of the arm compiler.

Hi all,

I found the root cause.
If you use Ubuntu, arm toolchain cannot be installed with dash shell!!

Solution:

1. sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow dash
//set dash as default system shell. Choose "NO"

2. re-install xilinx ISE

3. sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow dash
//set dash as default system shell. Choose "YES"

done!!

Hi
It seems that under the path:<path>/14.x/ISE_DS/EDK/gnu/,the folder "arm" was missing,try to install ise14.x under the bash shell if you are under linux os.
