Hi!

I have a mipsel router (mips32) with TomatoUSB and I have a 4g dongle, which uses hi-link. And I found this source, So I want to compile it using cross-compiler on my ubuntu PC.

But when I try to get it, it says:

# env GOOS=linux GOARCH=mips go get https://github.com/knq/hilink
2016/06/29 16:59:45 unsupported GOARCH mips

So how Can I compile it?

Thanks!

The Go project does not use the issue tracker to ask questions. Please see https://golang.org/wiki/Questions . Thanks.

Go 1.2 does not support MIPS. MIPS support was added in Go 1.6. And even in 1.6 there is no mips 32-bit support, only GOARCH=mips64.

Okay, but I have a gccgo (from opewrt-go) So with it I also Can't compile the code to mips32?

Sorry.

Please use a forum.

To use gccgo, use the -compiler=gccgo option and set the compiler to a mips32 cross-compiler.

Dup of #14637 also.
