with structuredAttrs lists will be bash arrays which cannot be exported
which will be a issue with some patches and some wrappers like cc-wrapper
this makes it clearer that NIX_CFLAGS_COMPILE must be a string as lists
in env cause a eval failure
checkInputs used to be added to nativeBuildInputs. Now we have
nativeCheckInputs to do that instead. Doing this treewide change allows
to keep hashes identical to before the introduction of
nativeCheckInputs.
Workaround build failure on -fno-common toolchains like upstream
gcc-10. Otherwise build fails as:
ld: lockdep.o:/build/linux-5.0.21/tools/lib/lockdep/../../include/linux/rcu.h:5: multiple definition of
`rcu_scheduler_active'; common.o:/build/linux-5.0.21/tools/lib/lockdep/../../include/linux/rcu.h:5: first defined here
required a bit of an overhaul to ensure we're compiling against *this*
kernel's headers, not those in glibc which are presumably from some other
random kernel version.
would be nice to update to a more recent version, the build of this tool
reportedly got broken soon after this release.
In line with the Nixpkgs manual.
A mechanical change, done with this command:
find pkgs -name "*.nix" | \
while read f; do \
sed -e 's/description\s*=\s*"\([a-z]\)/description = "\u\1/' -i "$f"; \
done
I manually skipped some:
* Descriptions starting with an abbreviation, a user name or package name
* Frequently generated expressions (haskell-packages.nix)
Lockdep doesn't *really* require the kernel package - just the kernel
sources. It's really a user-space tool just compiled from some portable
code within the kernel, nothing more.
