arm64 environment running loader

Hello,

I am trying to port FreeBSD on armv8. I have followed the instructions according to [1]. However, when I am trying to generate the loader file (loader.efi), it is giving me an error.

When I execute this: make buildenv TARGET=arm64 I get into the arm64 build environment. When I do this: make -C sys/boot -DWITHOUT_FORTH obj all it gives an error saying:
What might the problem be?

Thank you.

What version of FreeBSD? Development for ARMv8 is done on -CURRENT. There's no support yet on 10.x or 9.x.

Hello, thank you for the response.

I am using FreeBSD 10 to build the source file that is available at the SVN repository at [1]. The binutils for compiling the toolchain is from [2].

I am not able to follow this. Are you saying that I can't compile the source at [1] with FreeBSD machine? Or, that the source itself should not be 10.x or 9.x?

Thank you.

You need to use 11-CURRENT because armv8 is not supported in any currently supported version of FreeBSD. See the handbook for tracking a development branch or this tutorial on bsdnow.tv.
