- our gcc should not bring libssp, because glibc provides __stack_chk_fail
already. libssp is only for some non-glibc systems.
The gcc configure script was not finding the header files of our glibc, so
it assumed it did not provide __stack_chk_fail. I wrote code in the builder
that patches the gcc/configure script properly for that.
As a consequence, the glibc does not need anymore the "nscd-ssp-linking"
patch, and we have a saner gcc (without libssp when using -fstack-protector)
- Instead of disabling the sse42 strstr() implementation in glibc due to the
bug http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12123, I provide a better
patch written after more reserach (that I submitted upstream already, and
it's pending review).

If a build expressions has set "enableParallelBuilding = true", then the
generic builder may utilize more than one CPU core to build that particular
expression. This feature works out of the box for GNU Make. Expressions that
use other build drivers like Boost.Jam or SCons have to specify appropriate
flags such as "-j${NIX_BUILD_CORES}" themselves.

Updating the cross-build expressions, adding some flexibility.
Updated the linux headers used cross building, as 2.6.28 had bugs on endianness in
sparc64.
There were, as usual some bugs in gcc. Maybe not many make a cross compiler to
ultrasparc.
For the record, I could build an ultrasparc kernel with this base nix:
import /etc/nixos/nixpkgs/default.nix # The root nixpkgs default.nix
{
crossSystem = {
config = "sparc64-unknown-linux";
bigEndian = true;
arch = "sparc64";
float = "soft";
withTLS = true;
cpu = "ultrasparc";
};
config = pkgs: {
packageOverrides = pkgs : {
platform = {
name = "sparc64";
kernelHeadersBaseConfig = "sparc64_defconfig";
kernelBaseConfig = "sparc64_defconfig";
kernelArch = "sparc";
kernelAutoModules = false;
kernelTarget = "zImage";
uboot = null;
};
};
};
}

Some things don't work:
- The ghdl expression (it still needs the gcc 4.3.4 src, ...)
- The gnat wrappers need to be more generic - now they work only for the

store path.
- Using the cloogppl and ppl. We will need our own gnatboot built with c++
libraries for that.

- Before this changes, cflags and ldflags for the native and the cross compiler
got mixed. Not all the gcc-wrapper/gcc-cross-wrapper variables are
independant now, but enough, I think.
- Fixed the generic stdenv expression, which did a big mess on buildInputs and
buildNativeInputs. Now it distinguishes when there is a stdenvCross or not.
Maybe we should have a single stdenv and forget about the stdenvCross
adapter - this could end in a stdenv a bit complex, but simpler than the
generic stdenv + adapter.
- Added basic support in pkgconfig for cross-builds: a single PKG_CONFIG_PATH
now works for both the cross and the native compilers, but I think this
should work well for most cases I can think of.
- I tried to fix the guile expression to cross-biuld; guile is built, but not
its manual, so the derivation still fails. Guile requires patching to
cross-build, as far as I understnad.
- Made the glibcCross build to be done through the usage of a
gcc-cross-wrapper over the gcc-cross-stage-static, instead of using it
directly.
- Trying to make physfs (a neverball dependency) cross build.
- Updated the gcc expression to support building a cross compiler without getting
derivation variables mixed with those of the stdenvCross.

- Stating better the guile dependencies (native/host) for guile to build
- Fixing cross-linking, through --rpath-link (ld(1) explains well about it
- Made gcc call the linker and the assembler through the gcc wrapper instead of
directly. I thought this was the source of missing -rpath's, but the source
of the problem ended up being the lack of --rpath-link. But I think the
native gcc calls the wrapped ld and as, so let's do the same cross
compiling.
- Removed the binutilsCross from the glibc expressions. Now they are built
using the gcc-cross-wrapper, and they were built with the direct gcc and
binutils before this change.
- I think patchelf and strip don't break the cross-compiled binaries, so I
reallow them on cross compilation.
- I disable the checkPhase on cross compilation. This made gmp and libtool
fail when cross compiled, iirc.

`selectVersion ./foo "bar"' instead of `import ./foo/bar.nix'.
* Replaced `with args' with formal function arguments in several
packages.
* Renamed several files to `default.nix'. As a general rule, version
numbers should only be included in the filename when there is a
reason to keep multiple versions of a package in Nixpkgs.
Otherwise, it just makes it harder to update the package.

It still does not work, but I think I already get glibc cross compiled.
Next: gcc and g++, and set some setup script hooks on stdenvCross.
It took quite enough hours for this commit.
svn path=/nixpkgs/branches/stdenv-updates/; revision=18351
My idea is to provide special stdenv expressions that will contain in the path
additional cross compilers. As most expressions for programs accept a stdenv parameter,
we could substitute this parameter with the special stdenv, which will have a
generic builder that attempts the usual "--target=..." and can additionally
have an env variable like "cross" with the target architecture set.
So, finally we could have additional expressions like this:
bashRealArm = makeOverridable (import ../shells/bash) {
inherit fetchurl bison;
stdenv = stdenvCross "armv5tel-unknown-linux-gnueabi";
};
Meanwhile it does not work - I still cannot get the cross-gcc to build.
I think it does not fill the previous expressions with a lot of noise, so I
think it may be a good path to follow.
I only touched some files of the current stdenv: gcc-4.3, kernel headers
2.6.28, glibc 2.9, ...
I tried to use the gcc-cross-wrapper, that may be very outdated. Maybe I will
update it, or update the gcc-wrapper expression to make it fit the cross tools,
but meanwhile I even cannot build gcc, so I have not tested the wrapper.
This new idea on cross compiling is not similar to that of the
nixpkgs/branches/cross-compilation, which mostly added bare new expressions for
anything to be cross compiled, if I understood it correctly.
I cared not to break anything of the usual stdenv in all this work.
