           Summary: mcs non-functional on PowerPC e300 core
           Product: Mono: Compilers
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PowerPC
        OS/Version: Ubuntu
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: C#
        AssignedTo: mono-bugs at lists.ximian.com
        ReportedBy: bill at arrowsreach.com

          Found By: ---


Unable to build mono from source tarball, on an embedded PowerPC arch.  The mcs
 compiler that was built apears to generate non-functional output, and the
build process stops when trying to compile C# code.

The cpu is a Freescale MPC8349 which has an e300 core, an enhanced version of
the G2 or 603e cores.

Platform Details:
  Freescale MPC8349
  Custom kernel 2.6.23
  Root FS is using Ubuntu 6.10 PPC

===========================================================
Compile C# on x86 Host, gcc on PPC Target
===========================================================
Following the http://www.mono-project.com/Mono:ARM page with
some changes for my situation.

Compile mono-20080120 on x86 Host.
  $ ./configure
  $ make
  $ make install DESTDIR=`pwd`/tmptree
Copy tmptree from Host to the Target filesystem


Compile mono-20080120 on ppc Target (instead of using scratchbox)
  $ ./configure --disable-mcs-build
  $ make
  $ make install

Looks good at this point on the ppc Target:
  $ /usr/local/bin/mono --version 

  Mono JIT compiler version 20080120 (tarball)
  Copyright (C) 2002-2007 Novell, Inc and Contributors. www.mono-project.com
        TLS:           __thread
        GC:            Included Boehm (with typed GC)
        SIGSEGV:       altstack
        Notifications: epoll
        Architecture:  ppc
        Disabled:      none

  $ mcs --version

  Mono C# compiler version 2008.110.0.0


It will run assemblies that were compiled on the x86 Host
and copied to the target:
  $ mono HelloWorldHost.exe

  Hello Mono World (Compiled on Host)

It will NOT run assemblies compiled on the ppc Target:
  $ mcs HelloWorldTarget.cs
  $ mono HelloWorldTarget.exe

  Cannot open assembly HelloWorldTarget.exe.

With the verbose option:
  $ mono -v HelloWorldTarget.exe
