[distcc] Errors while using DISTCC

[yudhistir reddy]

Hi Jan/Fergus,

Thanks for reply . Sorry for delay in replying back . I took some time to
understand distcc and our build system .
For Issues which mentioned in the first mail

Issue 1:
In this case we have parser perl script which generates the intermediate .c
file  .

sample command :  parser/gentree.pl -c  <path>/distcc/3.1/bin/distcc
<path>/mips64/mips64-cpp --    -membedded-data -msoft-float <few more
arguments > -fasynchronous-unwind-tables -G 0  ...(few more arguments)

here gentree.pl file takes $CC as argument . But as i am using Distcc , so
my CC= ${DISTCC} ${CC} . So it got extra argument so throwing error . Only
for this parser file , i changed to compile on local host . So its fine now
.


Issue2 :

gcc: cannot specify -o with -c or -S with multiple files .

Again the way i invoke the distcc with gcc . So i changed only this file to
compile locally and its working fine .

sample command :
<path>/distcc/3.1/bin/distcc   <path>/mips64/bin/mips64-gcc -nostdinc
-Wno-pointer-sign -Wno-error=address <few more compiler options>  -c b.S
a.c &&  <path>/mips64/bin/mips64-ld -EB -G 8
<few more compiler options> -T<path>/ld.d.S  b.o  a.o  -o target &&
<path>/mips64/bin/mips64-objcopy -R .reginfo -S -O binary -R .note -R
.comment target target.bin


Regards
Yudhistir
