As per the Wiki : https://www.coreboot.org/Build_HOWTO I did "make crossgcc-i386". Now when I do make, I get compilation errors because my host gcc verion is 4.3. In case I update the host gcc version is updated to some later version, says gcc-8 , the errors are gone.
Looks like coreboot build system still uses the host gcc. How can I make with coreboot toolchain, instead of the host gcc toolchain.

Hi Naveen, Do you have the ANY_TOOLCHAIN option enabled? It's under General setup --> Allow building with any toolchain.
Make sure that option is not selected if you want to use coreboot's crossgcc toolchain.

Hi David,
Thanks for the response. I did check the option and its not enabled for me.
Additional Info : I was very well able to build the crossgcc-i386 and can see that coreboot/util/crossgcc/xgcc/bin $ ./i386-elf-gcc --version i386-elf-gcc (coreboot toolchain vf5fa96f9c3 2019-09-21) 8.3.0 Copyright (C) 2018 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Bu when I do "make" from the root of coreboot, the build fails for me because the host gcc version is 4.8.5. If I update the host gcc version to gcc-8, the build passes for me. This somewhat indicates that coreboot build system still picks the host toolchain, and not the coreboot's internal toolchain.
Do I need to export some env variable before calling make, say CROSS_COMPILE or something similar to point to the coreboot's internal toolchain?

coreboot's toolchain is only used to build "target" code, i.e. the coreboot itself. There are some tools to be compiled for the host, however, during the build process. As we usually only build a cross compiler, the original host toolchain will always be used for the tools.
It's most likely the build of such a tool that fails. If you can update your host toolchain, that's probably the best thing to do.
