To the best of my knowledge from when I first was trying to build osmocom-bb, the error you are receiving is a result of gcc for Intel x86/x86_64 trying to compile ARM code. There is no 'eor' instruction for x86, which is why you get that error.
When you built the toolchain, you built a copy of gcc that compiles to the ARM architecture. On your system, this compiler should be located at /home/arslan/dir/install/bin/arm-elf-gcc. The message about assuming arm-elf-gcc is inside the current path means your PATH environment variable, not your current working directory. So, if you add /home/arslan/dir/install/bin to your path environment variable, the osmocom-bb build scripts will be able to find arm-elf-gcc there, and you should not receive that error.
If you are using bash as your shell, you can accomplish this by issuing the command:
export PATH=$PATH:/home/arslan/dir/install/bin

Hi... I m trying to install osmocom-bb using following link:
http://bb.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/Software/GettingStarted
First of all i installed the Dependencies for the host.
Then for target dependencies, i build my own toolchain using following:
http://bb.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/GnuArmToolchain
This toolchain building processes ended up saying: "Build complete! Add /home/arslan/dir/install/bin to your PATH to make arm-elf-gcc and friends accessible directly." (i don't know building my own toolchain is necessary or not).
Then i went back for building osmocom-bb
There i came across getting and updating the source.
But in building the source section, what it says is: " Compiling both the target and the host code will happen with the following command. It assumes that the arm-elf-gcc is inside the current path."
I didn't understand it as my current path is osmocom-bb and there is no arm-elf-gcc Can anyone tell me what does it mean?
Anyways, i just ignored it and went on executing the following command
cd src/ make
So i ended up with an error saying: /home/arslan/osmocom-bb/src/target/firmware/include/asm/swab.h:32: Error: no such instruction: `eor %edx,%r15d,%r15d,ror' make[4]: *** [gsmtap_util.lo] Error 1
I tried to figure it out from Internet. It really didn't work out. M stuck at this point. Can anyone help me resolving this problem?
