gcc's configure system has the nasty habit (for us) of judging for
itself if it is building a cross compiler (or cross compiling), but on
the limited information of the build, host and target platforms' config
which only contains a subset of the information we encode in
`stdenv.*Platform`. The practical consequence was that prior to this
change building `pkgsLLVM.buildPackages.gcc` actually fails because it
refuses to use `--with-headers` with something it believes to not be a
cross compiler.
As a workaround we force the appropriate variable in the configure
script to always be `yes` regardless of its own conditional check.
At some point we probably should report this issue in some capacity, so
future gcc versions don't force us into workarounds like this and
acdc783418.
Don't rely on gcc detecting from the passed platforms which prefix to
use, but always specify the prefix nixpkgs expects (or doesn't). This
allows us to work around problems where the configure script would add
prefix where nixpkgs doesn't expect one (if `--target` was specified,
but the same as `--host`) or doesn't add one if nixpkgs expects one (if
`--target` and `--host` are the same, but we are actually cross
compiling, but the relevant parts of the platform are not encoded into
the platform config.

In order to support stackprotector on musl32, this change import a
couple of patches from alpinelinux:
1. libssp_nonshared.a is built alongside musl's libc
2. the above library is automatically linked when compiling with gcc6
or gcc7
When cross compiling to the same kernel / arch combination, it is safe
to use strip of libraries. This happens when cross-compiling musl
programs. dontStrip is now set in each gcc compiler instead of in
gcc/builder.sh.
Fixes#75476
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.

I hate the thing too even though I made it, and rather just get rid of
it. But we can't do that yet. In the meantime, this brings us more
inline with autoconf and will make it slightly easier for me to write a
pkg-config wrapper, which we need.
This option can be used to set the “jit” language which enable the
libgccjit functionality. Also adds a “libgccjit” attr which is gcc
built with just jit enabled.
libgccjit is a library but is used as a compiler. So it references a
bunch of compiler things in $out. To avoid a cycle, we need to put
everything in $out, so referenced to $lib need to be replaced with
${!outputLib}.
* add generic x86_32 support
- Add support for i386-i586.
- Add `isx86_32` predicate that can replace most uses of `isi686`.
- `isi686` is reinterpreted to mean "exactly i686 arch, and not say i585 or i386".
- This branch was used to build working i586 kernel running on i586 hardware.
* revert `isi[345]86`, remove dead code
- Remove changes to dead code in `doubles.nix` and `for-meta.nix`.
- Remove `isi[345]86` predicates since other cpu families don't have specific model predicates.
* remove i386-linux since linux not supported on that cpu
Some packages don’t work correctly with pie. Here I disable it for:
- busybox
- linux kernel
- kexectools
I also get rid of the Musl conditional for disabling pie in GCC and
Binutils. Some day we might want to enable PIE without Musl and it
will be useful to have the *just* work with our compiler and linkers.
These don’t like having -fPIE set for them. We should disable
hardening all the time, but in the interest of not changing hashes,
this only disables it for Musl (where it is now the default).
(cherry picked from commit a3a6884649354a660326acd68c1bd08ffd2dcfa2)
- respect libc’s incdir and libdir
- make non-unix systems single threaded
- set LIMITS_H_TEST to false for avr
- misc updates to support new libc’s
- use multilib with avr
For threads we want to use:
- posix on unix systems
- win32 on windows
- single on everything else
For avr:
- add library directories for avrlibc
- to disable relro and bind
- avr5 should have precedence over avr3 - otherwise gcc uses the wrong one
