This PR adds Hydra-generated bootstrap tarballs for powerpc64le-linux.
I'll be following the script established in PR to tarballs.nixos.org.
Files came from this Hydra build:
https://hydra.nixos.org/build/172142499
Which used nixpkgs revision 49a83445c2
to instantiate:
/nix/store/gj272sd56gsj6qpyzh4njpfzwdhviliz-stdenv-bootstrap-tools-powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu.drv
and then built:
/nix/store/n81pljbd8m0xgypm84krc2bnvqgjrfxx-stdenv-bootstrap-tools-powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu
I downloaded these files from Hydra with the following commands:
```
STOREPATH=n81pljbd8m0xgypm84krc2bnvqgjrfxx-stdenv-bootstrap-tools-powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu
OPTIONS="--option binary-caches https://cache.nixos.org"
nix store add-file \
--name bootstrap-tools.tar.xz \
$(nix-store ${OPTIONS} -r /nix/store/${STOREPATH})/on-server/bootstrap-tools.tar.xz
nix store add-path \
--name busybox \
$(nix-store ${OPTIONS} -r /nix/store/${STOREPATH})/on-server/busybox
```
As @lovesegfault requested in #151399, here are the the `sha256sum`s
of all the `on-server` components for extra verification:
```

`--enable-deterministic-archives` is a GNU specific strip flag and
causes other strip implementations (for example LLVM's, see #138013)
to fail. Since strip failures are ignored, this means that stripping
doesn't work at all in certain situation (causing unnecessary
dependencies etc.).
To fix this, no longer pass `--enable-deterministic-archives`
unconditionally, but instead add it in a GNU binutils specific strip
wrapper only.
`commonStripFlags` was only used for this flag, so we can remove
it altogether.
Future work could be to make a generic strip wrapper, with support for
nix-support/strip-flags-{before,after} and NIX_STRIP_FLAGS_{BEFORE,AFTER}.
This possibly overkill and unnecessary though -- also with the
additional challenge of incorporating the darwin strip wrapper somehow.
Patch every `derivation` call in the bootsrap process to add it a
conditional `__contentAddressed` parameter.
That way, passing `contentAddressedByDefault` means that the entire
build closure of a system can be content addressed
These files never existed, so best to not leave the reference. If
someone want to step up to maintain this, that would be fine. I don’t
have the hardware to test these out. In addition, someone tried to use
the bootstrap-tools currently built by Hydra and found that they were
broken in some unclear way.
crossOverlays only apply to the packages being built, not the build
packages. It is useful when you don’t care what is used to build your
packages, just what is being built. The idea relies heavily on the
cross compiling infrastructure. Using this implies that we need to
create a cross stdenv.
02c09e0171 (NixOS/nixpkgs#44558) was reverted in
c981787db9 but, as it turns out, it fixed an issue
I didn't know about at the time: the values of `propagateDoc` options were
(and now again are) inconsistent with the underlying things those wrappers wrap
(see NixOS/nixpkgs#46119), which was (and now is) likely to produce more instances
of NixOS/nixpkgs#43547, if not now, then eventually as stdenv changes.
This patch (which is a simplified version of the original reverted patch) is the
simplest solution to this whole thing: it forces wrappers to directly inspect the
outputs of the things they are wrapping instead of making stdenv guess the correct
values.
This reverts commit a809fdc8e1 and then
achieves the same result (not rebuilding texinfo three times)
but without dragging bootstrap tools into the closure.
As in:
$ nix eval -f . bash
Also remove the glibc propagation inherit that made these necessary,
stages handle propagating libc themselves (apparently) and
AFAICT no hashes are changed as a result of this.
Since at least d7bddc27b2, we've had a
situation where one should depend on:
- `stdenv.cc.bintools`: for executables at build time
- `libbfd` or `libiberty`: for those libraries
- `targetPackages.cc.bintools`: for exectuables at *run* time
- `binutils`: only for specifically GNU Binutils's executables,
regardless of the host platform, at run time.
and that commit cleaned up this usage to reflect that. This PR flips the
switch so that:
- `binutils` is indeed unconditionally GNU Binutils
- `binutils-raw`, which previously served that role, is gone.
so that the correct usage will be enforced going forward and everything
is simple.
N.B. In a few cases `binutils-unwrapped` (which before and now was
unconditionally actual GNU binutils), rather than `binutils` was used to
replace old `binutils-raw` as it is friendly towards some cross
compilation usage by avoiding a reference to the next bootstrapping
change.
