Details

Summary
  • Remove a FreeBSD-specific hack from 'find_a_file()' that hardcodes a single directory for includes.
  • Change the C++ directory entries to honor --sysroot if it is set.
  • Don't define CROSS_INCLUDE_DIR for the cross compiler. Instead, set TARGET_SYSTEM_ROOT to point to WORLDTMP and always define STANDARD_INCLUDE_DIR.
  • Change STANDARD_INCLUDE_DIR and the C++ include directories to just start with "/usr" always. The compiler will prepend the sysroot when doing cross-builds. GCC_INCLUDE_DIR (which contains headers that ship with the compiler such as intrinsincs rather than OS-supplied headers) remains hardcoded to look in TOOLS_PREFIX.
Test Plan
  • make tinderbox with only --sysroot in cflags
  • compiling a standalone hello.c for sparc64 using sparc64 cross-compiler and WORLDTMP as --sysroot
  • manually inspecting output of -print-search-dirs and include paths from -v when using different values of --sysroot for sparc64 cross-compiler
  • This along with the already-approved D14780 fix GCC 4.2.1 to work with just --sysroot. I believe the native compiler should also DTRT but still need to test that.

We may need to keep some of this like the -L usage if your port work didn't change the ordering or the -B usage... Did you test without the 2 -isystem uses here? I think the C++ one will need to remain looking at the freebsd-native.h change.

There's 2 tests that are needed:

  • Cross-build
  • Native-build with WITH_SYSTEM_COMPILER activated. You can probably cheat this one by doing a normal cross-build but removing TOOLS_PREFIX in gnu/usr.bin/cc/Makefile.inc:
CFLAGS+=        -DPREFIX=\"${TOOLS_PREFIX}/usr\"

Change TOOLS_PREFIX to blank there and it should then still build the cross-compiler but then require that --sysroot works properly.

Looks like this code was added in rS231336 for -print-file-name=include. Is it directly relevant for --sysroot?

Hm this looks in /usr/include/c++/4.2 but our -isystem is adding in /usr/include/c++/v1, so I think we'll still need the -isystem for C++ in Makefile.inc1. In which case the --sysroot fixes in contrib/gcc/cppdefault.c may not be needed.

This change for STANDARD_INCLUDE_DIR and CROSS_INCLUDE_DIR seems like the primary fix to me.

All of this is gone in my testing. The port versions now look in the right place when using --sysroot. The earlier commit in this git branch that I've been using for all my tests is here: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/commit/d68a00bbb3c0844020ba89c69fa0b13c27b561ff

I sill need to do a native build under qemu to test the system_compiler case (I thought I had done that already but I can't recall for certain). I can't quite break PREFIX as you suggested as the compiler still needs to find things like 'cc1' which are always under TOOLS_PREFIX and it uses PREFIX to find those.

Hmm, I can try removing it and/or testing --print-file-name=include.

No. We don't use libc++ when using GCC 4.2.1 because 4.2.1 can't compile C++11. When using 4.2.1 we still use libstdc++ from contrib and this preserves that behavior.

I think the -isystem ${WORLDTMP}/usr/include/c++/v1 -std=c++11 needs to remain. It's for extenal (newer) GCC to use libc++.

Funny enough I realized this while falling asleep the other night and almost got up to remove the comment.

No, we do fixups in the devel/powerpc64-gcc and base/gcc ports to make them use libc++:

CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--target=${GCC_TARGET} --disable-nls --enable-languages=c,c++ \
		...
		--with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/include/c++/v1/ \
...

post-patch:
	@${REINPLACE_CMD} -e '/LIBSTDCXX/ s/stdc\+\+/c\+\+/g ' \
		${WRKSRC}//gcc/cp/g++spec.c

The first one removes the need for the -isystem. The second one makes gcc use -lc++ instead of -lstdc++.

I finally did a test tinderbox yesterday with this hunk removed and it still builds fine, so I'm going to drop it. Without this change '--print-file-name=include' outputs 'include'. With this change left in it prints out '/usr/include' (always, doesn't honor sys root, but it's also not clear to me what might possibly use it)
