Hello,
I would like to know if there's any documentation on how to configure gcc to
support a new OS. Im currently working on the development of an OS and we
want to build a cross compiler running on OpenBSD for that new OS.
I did configure it before using the *-gnu* base stuff targetting ELF format.
Since then, I tried to reconfigure and rebuild binutils + gcc to generate
a.out format. For some reasons, it seemed to generate unusable binary so, since
binary format is not a big deal for me due to the primitive state of the OS
development project, Im just looking for some documentation to figure out
what would be the mandatory options for a basic plain ELF format compiler.
Thanks,
- Yannick
