Dear Arnd:

The prebuilt nds32 toochain with gcc 8 is placed here
https://github.com/vincentzwc/prebuilt-nds32-toolchain/releases

The source code of each component for this toolchain is placed here.
a. gcc:
path: https://github.com/andestech/gcc.git
branch: nds32-8.1.0-upstream
b. binutils
path: https://github.com/andestech/binutils.git
branch: nds32-binutils-2.30-branch-open
c. glibc
path: https://github.com/andestech/glibc.git
branch: nds32-glibc-2.27-v0
d. Linux
path: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git
branch: master

This toolchain also can be manually generated by the following script
https://github.com/andestech/build_script/blob/master/build_toolchain.sh

We successfully generate a bootable kernel image with nds32 defconfig by this
toolchain. However, we find a new compiler warning, Wstringop-overflow, when
building arch/nds32/kernel/vdso.o. We have sent a patch to fix it.


Best regards
Vincent
