Hi!
I want to make my rpi3 as a wireless repeater where I want to run it as wireless client from the inbuilt wireless interface and run it as access point from an external usb wireless adapter.
For using the external usb wireless adapter I need to install its driver on rpi3 and I have the source code of this driver module which I want to compile for my rpi3 architecture.
I am trying to find out the toolchain for my rpi3 having chipset BCM2709 but I am not able to find it. The one I found was for BCM2708 on this link https://github.com/raspberrypi/tools/tr ... rm-bcm2708
When I run the gcc command from the various type of toolchains listed under arm-bcm2708 on my rpi then it gives error like below
/opt/tools/arm-bcm2708/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-raspbian-x64/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
I am not sure why it is not working, I think either I don't have the right toolchain for BCM2709 or can I execute the above toolchain on my rpi3 itself?
Please help
Thanks

Which "the gcc command" are you running exactly ?

Re: Compilation tools for rpi3
Why do you need a different toolchain than the one that is installed by default in Raspbian ?
I understand as if you want to do the build ON the Raspberry not cross-compile.
