%general-entities; ]> Setting Host and Target During the building of the cross-compile tools you will need to set a few variables that will be dependent on your particular needs. You will need to set the target triplet for the target architecture, the MIPS level, and CPU endianess. If you do not know what triplet or level you want, you can use the table at the bottom of this page as a reference. Set the command using the method listed below: export CLFS_ARCH=$(echo ${CLFS_TARGET} | sed -e 's/\(mips\)\(64\)\?\(el\)\?-.*/\1\3/') export CLFS_ENDIAN=$(echo ${CLFS_ARCH} | sed -e 's/mipsel/little/' -e 's/mips/big/') Now you will need to set the MIPS LEVEL. This determines how your uClibc is built. There are currently 5 MIPS ISA Levels. To keep things simple we are only using 2. For more information, go to export CLFS_MIPS_LEVEL="[mips level]" echo export CLFS_HOST=\""${CLFS_HOST}\"" >> ~/.bashrc echo export CLFS_TARGET=\""${CLFS_TARGET}\"" >> ~/.bashrc echo export CLFS_ARCH=\""${CLFS_ARCH}\"" >> ~/.bashrc echo export CLFS_ENDIAN=\""${CLFS_ENDIAN}\"" >> ~/.bashrc echo export CLFS_MIPS_LEVEL=\""${CLFS_MIPS_LEVEL}\"" >> ~/.bashrc Processor Target Triplet MIPS Level MIPS 32 bits Little Endian mipsel-unknown-linux-uclibc 1 MIPS 32 bits Big Endian mips-unknown-linux-uclibc 1 MIPS 64 bits Little Endian mips64el-unknown-linux-uclibc 3 MIPS 64 bits Big Endian mips64-unknown-linux-uclibc 3
