Message-ID: <4A11597A.5010904@einfochips.com> Date: Mon, 18 May 2009 18:20:02 +0530 From: Viral Mehta <viral.mehta@...fochips.com> To: lkml <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Subject: Re: gcc compilation Ohh sorry asking w/o g00gling... I just found GCC manual : "the default configuration is to perform a 3-stage bootstrap of the compiler when ‘make’ is invoked. This will build the entire GCC system and ensure that it compiles itself correctly."
