Sorry for that. Our nds32 toolchain upstreaming is on-going.
You may try this one. It is able to build defconfig and allnoconfig

https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/17/395
https://www.kernel.org/pub/tools/crosstool/files/bin/x86_64/6.4.0/x86_64-gcc-6.4.0-nolibc-nds32le-linux.tar.xz

or this one with glibc support
