[[!toc levels=2]] # General Information ## [[/Binutils]] As these tools primarily deal with low-level parts of the target architecture and the object file format (ELF ABI), which are essentially (at least meant to be) the same, there shouldn't be many differences comparing the binutils between the GNU/Hurd and GNU/Linux ports, for example. There are a few, though, as explained below. ## [[/GDB]] GDB needs an processor architecture as well as operating system port. # Configuration Last reviewed up to Git commit e49433d22dae92a56ae15a8b5742cbf1f31d5fd1 (2015-08-19). * Globally * a.out (such as `ld/emulparams/i386linux.sh`, `ld/emultempl/linux.em`, etc.), COFF, PE image support and 64-bit support are not interesting. * In the testsuites, `.exp` and `.d` files very likely should not only care for `*-*-linux*`, but also `*-*-gnu*`. (If they need to be conditionalized like this at all.) * `bfd/` * `config.bfd` * `i[3-7]86-*-gnu*` Comparing to `i[3-7]86-*-linux-*`: * `i386linux_vec` -- a.out. * `i386pei_vec` -- PE. * 64 bit. * `configure.host` Souldn't need anything. x86 Linux neither. * `configure.in` Linux: * `COREFILE=trad-core.lo` with `TRAD_HEADER='"hosts/i386linux.h"'` We don't have any such core file support configured. TODO: should we? Where is this core file reading exactly used? GDB? * `i386linux_vec` -- a.out. * `i386pei_vec` -- PE. * `binutils/` * `configure.tgt` * `gas/` * `config/tc-i386.c` #ifdef TE_LINUX /* Default to compress debug sections for Linux. */ enum compressed_debug_section_type flag_compress_debug = COMPRESS_DEBUG_GABI_ZLIB; #endif This has received quite some criticism, but it has not yet been corrected. * `config/te-gnu.h` C.f. `te-linux.h`; search tree for `TE_LINUX` vs. `TE_GNU` usage. * `tc-i386.h` Sole `TE_LINUX` usage is for a.out. * `configure.tgt` * `gdb/` * Have a look at config/i386/i386gnu.mh. * configure.tgt * glibc-tdep et al. also for GNU/Hurd? * [[gdb/gdbserver]] * In `gdb/gnu-nat.c:gnu_wait`, we don't implement `gdb/target/wait.h:TARGET_WNOHANG`. What is this needed for? * *complete errno.h* diff --git toolchain/logs/binutils-gdb/kepler.SCHWINGE/log_build_ toolchain/logs/binutils-gdb/laplace.SCHWINGE/log_build_ [...] -checking for complete errno.h... yes +checking for complete errno.h... no +checking for EMULTIHOP value... yes +checking for ENOLINK value... yes +checking for EOVERFLOW value... yes [...] +rm -f errno.h-t errno.h && \ +{ echo '/* DO NOT EDIT!

The Linux port has a bunch of special-case code. * We don't have anything corresponding to Linux' `linux_nat_set_forget_process`, `x86_forget_process`, or Linux' whole `linux-fork.c` machinery. Likewise for `linux_nat_set_prepare_to_resume`, `x86_linux_prepare_to_resume`, which the Linux port uses to actually set the debug registers. Likewise for `linux_nat_set_new_thread`, `x86_linux_new_thread`, and `linux_nat_set_new_fork`, `x86_linux_new_fork`. * Look into `*_cleanup_dregs`, `*_post_startup_inferior`.

Debian GCC (which is used in the testsuite) likes to pass `-plugin [...]` and `--sysroot=/` to `ld`, so we need to configure with support for plugins and sysroots. In the GDB build, there are compiler diagnostics reported in the MIG-generated stub files; thus no `-Werror` until that is resolved. This takes up around 1.4 GiB, and runs for [[22 min|performance#measure]] on kepler.SCHWINGE and [[23 min|performance#measure]] on laplace.SCHWINGE. ## Analysis x86 GNU/Linux' and GNU/Hurd's configurations are slightly different, thus mask out most of the differences that are due to GNU/Linux supporting more core file formats, and more emulation vectors. $ toolchain/logs/process binutils-gdb build * For GDB, why do we specify `-D_GNU_SOURCE`, and GNU/Linux doesn't? * GNU/Linux: `gdb/symfile-mem.c` for [[vDSO]]. * GNU/Linux: `gdb/i386-nat.c` for hardware breakpoints, etc. -- we should probably use that, too.
