Sounds like your toolchain was built without biarch support, but you're
using it for the 32-bit parts of the kernel anyway. Which works as long
as you're not using any libraries, but now you need libgcov.a .

What does

/opt/crosstool/gcc-4.1.0-glibc-2.3.6/powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/
powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc -v

say? (Or whatever the correct path to that compiler is, the directory
structure is a bit unusual here it seems). There shouldn't be a
--disable-biarch there.

Or, what does

find
/opt/crosstool/gcc-4.1.0-glibc-2.3.6/powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.1.0/
-name libgcov.a

say? (It should usually find three versions: 64-bit, 32-bit, 32-bit no
float).


You *can* build with a non-biarch compiler, but then you need to point
the kernel build system at a 32-bit toolchain to use for the 32-bit
parts (via CROSS32_COMPILE).
