Description Mark Millard 2016-01-16 04:21:33 UTC 
Not that I expected everything to work but I tried an amd64 based -r294096 -> powerpc buildworld buildkernel based on base/projects/clang3.8.0-import for TARGET_ARCH=powerpc (non-64). This was WITH_BOOT= in the src.conf file.

What stopped it was an attempt to use: -Wc,-mppc64bridge

That was from: base/head/sys/boot/powerpc/kboot/Makefile

(One of the SRCS in that Makefile is ppc64_elf_freebsd.c as well.)

The command line getting the message is for compiling conf.c and also has a -mcpu=powerpc64 in it. But the error message is:

cc: error: unsupported argument '-mppc64bridge' to option '-Wc,'

As far as I can tell looking at the history this has possibly been true since 11.0-CURRENT -r276331 on 2014-Dec-28 when base/head/sys/boot/powerpc/kboot/Makefile was created. I may just be the first to have tried such a clang-based powerpc build sequence.


It would appear that kboot should possibly only be built when TARGET_ARCH=powerpc64 and not when TARGET_ARCH=powerpc . Otherwise more than clang likely has to be able to target powerpc64 specifics for a TARGET_ARCH=powerpc build. (But this is guess work on my part for the FreeBSD criteria for such things. But a stopped TARGET_ARCH=powerpc build when clang based does not seem a likely intended result.)
Comment 1 Mark Millard 2016-01-16 04:49:13 UTC 
Looks like I should have referenced -r276688 (2015-Jan-5) as when head/sys/boot/powerpc/Makefile got its reference to kboot.
Comment 2 Mark Millard 2016-07-11 21:03:01 UTC 
Nathon Whitehorn had me instead test building based on sys/boot/powerpc/kboot/Makefile having 2 powerpc64 specific options removed:

The TARGET_ARCH=powerpc build completed with the following messages (from grep'ing for kboot in the typescript file):

The compiler involved was clang 3.8.0 . (This was a WITH_META_MODE=yes build.)

The TARGET_ARCH=powerpc64 build also completed. The compiler involved was powerpc64-gcc. (This was a WITH_META_MODE=yes build.) It showed the warnings:

I also did gcc 4.2.1 based cross-builds for TARGET_ARCH=powerpc and TARGET_ARCH=powerpc64 and they completed. They had analogous warnings to what clang (powerpc) and powerpc64-gcc (powerpc64) produced.

I do not have a context to test powerpc64 or powerpc kboot in. But the above shows that the TARGET_ARCH=powerpc will build if the file is adjusted.
Comment 3 Mark Millard 2017-01-10 10:14:43 UTC 
Created attachment 178694 [details]
Updated patch since NETIF_OPEN_CLOSE_ONCE was later removed

Be warned that I have no context to test a build of
kboot. I only checked if the buildworld buildkernel
completes with the change.

(The earlier patch was in comment #2.)
Comment 4 Mark Millard 2019-07-09 01:57:35 UTC 
This was fixed in head -348005 and appears to have been MFC'd.
