Switching the build system to cmake makes it easier to make changes to
the build (particularly which dependencies to link). It also removes a
lot of manual build steps and fixes the issue identified by @emilazy in
NixOS#238791.
Fixes NixOS#238791.
after communicating with the Raycast team (thanks Sorin), they added API for
1. Getting the latest version of Raycast via REST endpoint https://releases.raycast.com/releases/latest
2. Versioned download in the format of https://releases.raycast.com/releases/<version>/download
This update deprecates download via internet archive and switches to official download API
This was not caught when cctools-llvm was added. The parens are
necessary to make sure this evaluates correctly when LLVM is new enough
to provide a compatible `otool`.
A number of headers in Libc are being vendored from other packages.
Instead of copying them from an earlier Libc, Libsystem now sources them
from their respective packages (see below). This allows Libc_old to be
dropped and avoids any potential clashes when building Libsystem.
libmalloc:
* malloc/malloc.h
libplatform:
* setjmp.h
* ucontext.h
* libkern/OSAtomic.h
* libkern/OSCacheControl.h
libpthread:
* pthread*.h
* sched.h
* spawn.h
syslog (vendored because only one file is needed):
* asl.h
xnu:
* spawn.h (a different one from libpthread)
* libproc.h
This can result in swift-corefoundation being included even when a
derivation uses `apple_sdk_11_0.stdenv` directly, which may result in
hard to debug compiler errors (unless you just happen to know cryptic
compiler errors means the 10.12 and 11.0 SDKs have been mixed).
Clang 16 makes implicit declarations an error by default. The headers
are available, so include them.
`getline` was renamed to `get_line` to avoid a name clash. `util.h`
includes `stdio.h`, which defines `getline`.
cctools-llvm is a replacement for cctools that replaces as much of cctools with equivalents from LLVM that it can reasonably do. This was motivated by wanting to reduce dependencies on cctools, which are updated infrequently by upstream.
To provide a motivating example, the version of `strip` included in cctools cannot properly strip the archives in compiler-rt in LLVM 15. Paths are left to bootstrap tools, resulting in failed requisites checks in the final stdenv build. Since `strip` needs replaced, the opportunity was taken to replace other provided they are functional replacements.
Note: This has to be done in cctools (or some equivalent) because some derivations (noteably LLVM) use the bintools of the stdenv directly instead of going through the wrapper.
The following tools from LLVM are not used in this derivation:
* LLD - not fully compatible with ld64 yet and potentially too big of a change;
* libtool - not a drop-in replacement yet because it does not support linker passthrough, which is needed by xcbuild;
* lipo - crashes when running the LLVM test suite;
* install_name_tool - fails when trying to build swift-corefoundation; and.
* randlib - not completely a drop-in replacement, so leaving it out for now.
If other incompatabilities are found, the tools can be reverted or made conditional. For example, cctools `strip` is preferred on older versions of LLVM (which lack the compiler-rt issue) or when cctools itself is a new enough version because `llvm-strip` on LLVM 11 produces files that older verions of `codesign_allocate` cannot process correctly.
One final caveat/note: Some tools are not duplicated or linked from cctools-port. The names of the tools and which ones were linked was determined based on what is provided upstream in Xcode and is installed on macOS system.
This probably hasn’t built for a while. Apple is redirecting to GitHub,
which results in different hashes for cctools and ld64. While I’m fixing
the hashes, I also updated the sources to use `fetchFromGitHub`.
The 10.12 SDK uses `xar`, which depends on Python indirectly, which
depends on configd by default. This causes an infinite recuresion when
building configd because it needs SDK headers to build with clang 16.
Fix the infinite recursion by disabling Python support in libxml2 when
building the SDK, and use a minimal Python in the SDK build itself.
This was found while working on the Darwin stdenv rework. This change
allows rewrite-tbd to use the provided Makefile instead of depending on
cmake and pkg-config.
