[Raghav Nayak]

Hey,

I am trying to build toolchain for armv8 getting following error
"configure: error: GAS does not know what format to use for target aarch64-unknown-rtems4.12"

Could anybody please help me to resolve this issue. Thanks in advance


With Regards

RTEMS Source Builder simplifies/scripts the procedures to build the toolchain using as much as possible the upstream (gcc, newlib, binutils, etc) sources. RTEMS needs some customization in the compiler to add the -rtems target. Since support has never been added for v8, there will not be any such compiler support available yet. So the first step has to look at adding that support:
