[[!tag open_issue_gcc]]
Here's what's to be done for maintaining GCC.
Apart from the target-specific configuration machinery, there shouldn't be any
major differences within GCC between the GNU/Hurd and GNU/Linux ports, for
example. Especially all the compiler magic is all the same.
[[!toc levels=2]]
# [[General information|/gcc]]
# [[Sources|source_repositories/gcc]]
## Boehm GC
GCC includes an own variant of [[/Boehm_GC]] that is based on an upstream
version, but with own patches, etc. This is used for Java. (There are patches
(apparently not committed) that GCC itself can use it, too:
<http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Garbage_collection_tuning>.)
Patches to GCC's fork should be contributed back to upstream [[/Boehm_GC]].
[[tschwinge]] reviewed (but only briefly for large parts) the differences on
2010-12-08, based on the [[GCC Git mirror's
8e79e9d43f32c8852f068da91d655297d92ac0f4 (2010-11-29)
sources|source_repositories/GCC]] and Boehm GC's CVS HEAD sources from
2010-12-02, converted to [[Git, correspondingly
1c2455988a8f59a5f83b986b9156f03be395b3b6|source_repositories/boehm_gc]].
On 2010-11-17,
[[tschwinge]] reviewed the Debian GCC Boehm GC changes, compared them to the
upstream code, and put it into the local *hurd/boehm-gc/config_backport*
branch, planning to submit it to gcc-patches after testing with the GCC
testsuite.
* Check

OK.
# Configuration
Last reviewed up to the [[Git mirror's 3d83581faf4eaf52c1cf52cc0d11cc7dd1264275
(2011-09-05) sources|source_repositories/gcc]].
<http://gcc.gnu.org/install/configure.html> has documentation for the
`configure` switches.
* Configure fragments that have `*linux*` cases might/should often contain
those for us (and GNU/k*BSD) as well.
* `configure.ac`
* `libgomp/configure.tgt`
* `libstdc++-v3/configure.host`
`abi_baseline_pair` etc. setting.
* `libstdc++-v3/config/os/gnu-linux/*`
Is used for all GNU systems, as per `libstdc++-v3/configure.host`.
Should rename to `gnu` to reflect this?
* `gcc/acinclude.m4`:`gcc_GAS_FLAGS`: always pass `--32` to assembler for
x86 Linux. (Why?)
* [[`libmudflap`|libmudflap]].
* Might [`-fsplit-stack`](http://nickclifton.livejournal.com/6889.html) be
worthwhile w.r.t. our [[multithreaded|multithreading]] libraries?
* Also see `libgcc/config/i386/morestack.S`: comments w.r.t
`TARGET_THREAD_SPLIT_STACK_OFFSET`; likely needs porting.
As per `libgcc/config/i386/t-stack-i386`, the former file is only used for
`-fsplit-stack` support -- which is currently enabled for us in
`libgcc/config.host`, but not usable via GCC proper.
* `gcc/config/gnu-user.h` defines `*SPLIT_STACK*` macros -- which aren't
valid for us (yet), I think.
* `--enable-languages=[...]`
* GNAT is not yet ported / bootstrapped?
* The Google Go's libgo (introduced in
e440a3286bc89368b8d3a8fd6accd47191790bf2 (2010-12-03)) needs
OS configuration / support.
* `--enable-frame-pointer`
`gcc/configure.ac`: `enable_frame_pointer=no`
* `--with-dwarf2`?
* `--enable-werror`
* `--enable-checking`
* `--enable-linker-build-id`
* `--enable-gnu-unique-object`
* `--enable-lto`, `--enable-gold`
[[binutils_gold]]
* `--enable-indirect-function`
[[IFUNC]]
* <http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2007-11/msg00289.html>,
<http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2010-12/msg00672.html>
* `gcc/config/t-linux` should be named `gcc/config/t-gnu-user` or
similar. Likewise for `gcc/config/i386/t-linux`.
* Debian's GCC package has Hurd-specific patches. Some have been forwarded
upstream (and have been ignored). [[Thomas_Schwinge|tschwinge]] is working
on getting them integrated.
* [\[meta-bug\] bootstrap bugs for
\*-gnu\*](http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21824)
* [build system: gcc\_cv\_libc\_provides\_ssp and
NATIVE\_SYSTEM\_HEADER\_DIR](http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2008-10/msg00130.html)
* [-fstack-protector shouldn't use TLS in freestanding
mode](http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29838)
* Check before/after Joseph changes. (Should be fine.)
* 34618b3190c110b8926cc2b1db4b4eac95451995
What's this used for? (Check ML.) Ask to include i686-pc-gnu (once it is
buildable out of the box)? See also
73905b5de0d9a086f22ded7638bb1c0ae1b91326.
* [low, testsuite] 5c7992866145620ffd0bc75b4f23298162b2c17f
`check_effective_target_pie` should include `*-*-gnu*`, too.
# Build
Here's a log of a GCC build run; this is from our [[Git repository's
93608b32ee627438dbe8a1844254bf8c305c5dc1 (2011-09-05)
sources|source_repositories/gcc]], run on kepler.SCHWINGE and coulomb.SCHWINGE.
$ export LC_ALL=C
$ (cd ../master/ && contrib/gcc_update --touch)
$ ../master/configure --prefix="$PWD".install SHELL=/bin/dash CC=gcc-4.6 CXX=g++-4.6 2>&1 | tee log_build
[...]
$ make 2>&1 | tee log_build_
[...]
Different hosts may default to different shells and compiler versions; thus
harmonized.
This takes up around 2.9 GiB, and needs roughly 2.75 h on kepler.SCHWINGE and
13.25 h on coulomb.SCHWINGE.
