Support for Alpine Linux 32/64bits

Hi Alex,

Could you paste the error message you are facing? Ideally make the whole log available somewhere which is more likely to contain all the information we need to help you.

Best regards.

Thomas--

Here the requested information plus some additional info of my current setup.

Host OS: Windows 8 Pro using vitualbox lastest
Virtual host OS: Linux, alpine distribution alpine-virt-3.4.1-x86[_64].iso

The build procedure follows the PDF documentation, and basically executes the following two commands:

>build-prerequisites.sh
>build-toolchain.sh

How do I attach files? or what method is the preferred one to review external files?

So here are the logs. I have to copied them to dropbox.

Thanks.

Hi Alex,

I believe there is a line missing between those two:

Did you include the standard error in the file? Ie. did you run build-toolchain as build-toolchain.sh <OPTIONS> 2>&1 > log-toolchain.txt?

Best regards.

Here is the new log file with all the stdout and stderr output in the file, the following command was executed to generate this fie:

>./build-toolchain.sh --build_type=native --skip_steps=mingw32,mingw32-gdb-with-python,manual > log-toolchain2.txt 2>&1

Hi Alex,

Given the strong emphasis of Alpine Linux on security and the fact that the toolchain can be build on our machine with the exact same source, I would venture that the segmentation fault found in the log is due to the hardened environment, ie. the compiler tries to access to a resource that it does not have access to and the kernel kills it.

To confirm this I would suggest you to try with a kernel without all these security feature.

Best regards.
