The test suite leads to nothing but tears, sorrow, and wasted build
time. It probably should be disabled for all of them but doing only
9 (llvmPackages) and 11 (llvmPackages_latest, Rust) for now. Some of
the failures have been fixed in LLVM main:
- https://reviews.llvm.org/D97490
- https://reviews.llvm.org/D91043
When using GNU binutils, clang passes the LLVMgold.so plugin to the
linker for certain operations that require special support in the linker
like doing link time optimization (LTO). When passing the plugin to the
linker's command line, clang assumes that llvm and itself are installed
in the same prefix and thus `/path/to/clang/bin/../lib/LLVMgold.so` is
the plugin.
Since we install clang and llvm to separate store paths, this assumption
does not hold. When clang-unwrapped only had a single output, we worked
around this issue by symlinking `$out/lib/LLVMgold.so` to
`${llvm}/lib/LLVMgold.so`. However since we split all llvm packages into
multiple outputs clang's `$out` no longer has a lib directory and clang
can't discover clangs lib output on its own. As a result LTO was broken.
Instead of introducing yet another hack and having a symlink to
LLVMgold.so in `$out/lib` (despite having `$lib/lib` as well), we patch
clang to use a hard coded path to `${libllvm.lib}/lib` for discovering
`LLVMgold.so`.
Resolves #123361.
This is in an effort to fix the following build failure shown by
chromium:
clang++: error: no such file or directory: '/nix/store/fhd89wrmkx6nflzjk0d6waz70bk3zc4i-clang-wrapper-12.0.0/resource-root/share/cfi_blacklist.txt'
As it turns out a change introduced via the gnu-install-dirs.patch
caused `add_compiler_rt_resource_file` to install resource files to
$dev/include (FULL_INCLUDEDIR) instead of $out/share (FULL_DATADIR)
which in turn meant that the clang wrappers we had didn't link those
files to its resource root at all.
Alternative fix to this would have been to link
compiler-rt.dev/include/*.txt to the wrappers resource-root/share as
well, but since this was handled inconsistently across the patch anyways
(the dfsan list is installed correctly), opt to handle this
consistently within the patch.
llvmPackages_{5,6} install the resource files to a completely different
location and need separate investigation.
This will begin the process of breaking up the `useLLVM` monolith. That
is good in general, but I hope will be good for NetBSD and Darwin in
particular.

The bintools argument received a wrapped version of tools.bintools which
is already wrapped. Wrapped bintools twice leads to users of lldClang
being unable to find the tools which are not wrapped like ar.
The main thing was using `llvm_meta` in all versions.
Secondarily:
- libunwindx7: Forgot to split outputs
- libcxx{,abi} 12: Forgot to apply output-splitting patches.
- simplify `useLLVM` stdenv-switching logic.
- openmp always gets its own directory
- Introduce `preLibcCrossHeaders` to bootstrap libgcc and compiler-rt
the same way.
- Organize LLVM bintools as `bintools{-unwrapped,,NoLibc}` for
consistency with GNU Binutils and Apple's cctools.
- Do Android changes for all `llvmPackages` for consistency.
- Improve the way the default GCC and LLVM versions are selected.
In 7869d16545 I got rid of the symlinking
by forcing `COMPILER_RT_OS_DIR` to always be the empty string. I thought
this was good because it just make compiler-rt be installed in a normal
way.
However, various LLVM tools expect the `COMPILER_RT_OS_DIR` to be set
normally, and fail to find things when they aren't in the expected lib
subdir.
Maybe it would be best to patch that too in the long term, but for now
we just undo this change.
Before, clang was able to find some headers with a relative path to the
`-B` flag pointing near the unwrapped clang binary. But with multiple
outputs that doesn't work, so we use a "resource directory" as it done
later in the bootstrap.
Also begin to start work on cross compilation, though that will have to
be finished later.
The patches are based on the first version of
https://reviews.llvm.org/D99484. It's very annoying to do the
back-porting but the review has uncovered nothing super major so I'm
fine sticking with what I've got.
Beyond making the outputs work, I also strove to re-sync the packages,
as they have been drifting pointlessly apart for some time.
----
Other misc notes, highly incomplete
- lvm-config-native and llvm-config are put in `dev` because they are
tools just for build time.
- Clang no longer has an lld dep. That was introduced in
db29857eb3, but if clang needs help
finding lld when it is used we should just pass it flags / put in the
resource dir. Providing it at build time increases critical path
length for no good reason.
----
A note on `nativeCC`:
`stdenv` takes tools from the previous stage, so:
1. `pkgsBuildBuild`: `(?1, x, x)`
2. `pkgsBuildBuild.stdenv.cc`: `(?0, ?1, x)`
while:
1. `pkgsBuildBuild`: `(?1, x, x)`
2. `pkgsBuildBuild.targetPackages`: `(x, x, ?2)`
3. `pkgsBuildBuild.targetPackages.stdenv.cc`: `(?1, x, x)`
This patches are included from libcxx and libcxxabi when
stdenv.hostPlatform.isMusl. After #117433 the patchs to that patch
wasn't adjusted for the new structure, likely because it doesn't come up
during normal eval. This fixes (among other attribute paths):
* pkgsMusl.llvmPackages_12.libcxxabi
* pkgsMusl.llvmPackages_12.libcxx
* pkgsMusl.llvmPackages_11.libcxxabi
* pkgsMusl.llvmPackages_11.libcxx
* pkgsMusl.llvmPackages_10.libcxxabi
* pkgsMusl.llvmPackages_10.libcxx
* pkgsMusl.llvmPackages_9.libcxxabi
* pkgsMusl.llvmPackages_9.libcxx
* pkgsMusl.llvmPackages_8.libcxxabi
* pkgsMusl.llvmPackages_8.libcxx
* pkgsMusl.llvmPackages_7.libcxxabi
* pkgsMusl.llvmPackages_7.libcxx
* pkgsMusl.llvmPackages_6.libcxxabi
* pkgsMusl.llvmPackages_6.libcxx
* pkgsMusl.llvmPackages_5.libcxxabi
* pkgsMusl.llvmPackages_5.libcxx
Only evaluation was tested, not compilation though.
We can use use `stdenv.hostPlatform.isStatic` instead, and move the
logic per package. The least opionated benefit of this is that it makes
it much easier to replace packages with modified ones, as there is no
longer any issue of overlay order.

This reverts commit c778945806.
I believe this is exactly what brings the staging branch into
the right shape after the last merge from master (through staging-next);
otherwise part of staging changes would be lost
(due to being already reachable from master but reverted).
This is needed for cross-compiling for LLVM.
After https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/94088, we still need some
of these, so I’ve whitelisted those that are in binutils.
