Description Konstantin Belousov freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2020-04-05 09:03:43 UTC 
Please consider does the review https://reviews.freebsd.org/D24297
requires the exp-run.  I believe that it does not, see arguments in the trail.

If you consider it as worth the run, please start the exp-run.
Comment 1 Antoine Brodin freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2020-04-23 05:42:02 UTC 
Note:

The ports tree caches ac_cv_header_malloc_h=no,  so most ports didn't use malloc.h

There are still some new failures that seems to be due to stdbool (included via malloc_np)

Thanks, I updated the
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D24297
review with the fix for bool pollution.
Comment 3 Antoine Brodin freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2020-04-26 11:53:19 UTC 
The malloc_np.h header still seems to have issues:

Indeed, one plain 'bool' was left unnoticed.  Thanks for the report.
The review is updated.

So wxhexeditor problem seems to be a reuse of the bool definition, this should be
worked around in latest review update.
ja-skk-tools cannot tolerate pollution from strings.h, and this header is not
needed in malloc_np.h, again fixed in the update.

On the other hand, giacxcas seems to expect that there is mallinfo which is
Linux (glibc really)-specific extension, so I do not plan to fix it in src/.

Please take the Diff 71250 from the review.  For giacxcas, the workaround is to
still disable malloc.h, I believe.
Comment 9 Antoine Brodin freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2020-05-12 11:32:39 UTC 
Similar new failure on amd64.
Comment 10 Konstantin Belousov freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2020-05-12 12:10:48 UTC 
(In reply to Antoine Brodin from comment #9)
Thank you for all runs.  The math/giacxcas failure is not fixable in src/, because the port assumes that presence of malloc.h implies presence of linux-specific extensions.

I think that the port have to disable use of malloc.h and all the consequences
of it. I added the port maintainer (yuri@) to Cc: there.

So are you fine with the review now ?  I will go ahead after your confirmation.

Yes i'm fine.
