<title>Installation of GCC</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>This package is known to behave badly when you have changed its
|
|
default optimization flags (including the -march and -mcpu options).
|
|
Therefore, if you have defined any environment variables that override
|
|
default optimizations, such as CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS, we recommend unsetting
|
|
or modifying them when building GCC.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>This is an older release of GCC which we are going to install for the
|
|
purpose of compiling the Linux kernel in <xref linkend="chapter08"/>. This
|
|
version is recommended
|
|
by the kernel developers when you need absolute stability. Later versions of
|
|
GCC have not received as much testing for Linux kernel compilation. Using a
|
|
later version is likely to work, however, we recommend adhering to the kernel
|
|
developer's advice and using the version here to compile your kernel.</para>
|
|
|
|
<note><para>We don't install the C++ compiler or libraries here. However, there
|
|
may be reasons why you would want to install them. More information can be found
|
|
at <ulink url="&blfs-root;view/stable/general/gcc2.html"/>.</para></note>
|
|
|
|
<para>We'll install this older release of GCC into the non-standard prefix of
|
|
<filename class="directory">/opt</filename> so as to avoid interfering with
|
|
the system GCC already installed in <filename class="directory">/usr</filename>
|
|
.</para>

<para>Apply the patches and make a small adjustment:</para>

<para>The GCC documentation recommends building GCC outside of the source
|
|
directory in a dedicated build directory:</para>
