- <title>Installation of GCC</title>
- <para>Versions of GCC later than 4.3 will treat this build as if
- it were a relocated compiler and disallow searching for startfiles in
- the location specified by <parameter>--prefix</parameter>. Since this
- will not be a relocated compiler, and the startfiles in
- <filename class="directory">/tools</filename> are crucial to building
- a working compiler linked to the libs in <filename class="directory">/tools</filename>,
- apply the following patch which partially reverts GCC to its old behavior:</para>
- <screen><userinput remap="pre">patch -Np1 -i ../&gcc-startfiles-patch;</userinput></screen>
- <para>Under normal circumstances the GCC <command>fixincludes</command> script
- is run in order to fix potentially broken header files. As GCC-&gcc-version;
- and Glibc-&glibc-version; have already been installed at this point, and
- their respective header files are known to not require fixing, the
- <command>fixincludes</command> script is not required. In fact, running
- this script may actually pollute the build environment by
- installing fixed headers from the host system into GCC's private include
- directory. The running of the <command>fixincludes</command> script can
- be suppressed by issuing the following commands:</para>
- <screen><userinput remap="pre">cp -v gcc/Makefile.in{,.orig}
- sed 's@\./fixinc\.sh@-c true@' gcc/Makefile.in.orig > gcc/Makefile.in</userinput></screen>
- <para>For x86 machines, a bootstrap build of GCC uses the
- <option>-fomit-frame-pointer</option> compiler flag. Non-bootstrap builds
- omit this flag by default, and the goal should be to produce a compiler
- that is exactly the same as if it were bootstrapped. Apply the following
- <command>sed</command> command to force the build to use the flag:</para>
- <screen><userinput remap="pre">cp -v gcc/Makefile.in{,.tmp}
- sed 's/^T_CFLAGS =$/& -fomit-frame-pointer/' gcc/Makefile.in.tmp \
- > gcc/Makefile.in</userinput></screen>
- <para>The following command will change the location of GCC's default
- dynamic linker to use the one installed in
- <filename class="directory">/tools</filename>. It also removes <filename
- class="directory">/usr/include</filename> from GCC's include search path.
- Doing this now rather than adjusting the specs file after installation
- ensures that the new dynamic linker is used during the actual build of
- GCC. That is, all of the binaries created during the build will link
- against the new Glibc. Issue:</para>
- <screen><userinput remap="pre">for file in \
- $(find gcc/config -name linux64.h -o -name linux.h -o -name sysv4.h)
- do
- cp -uv $file{,.orig}
- sed -e 's@/lib\(64\)\?\(32\)\?/ld@/tools&@g' \
- -e 's@/usr@/tools@g' $file.orig > $file
- echo '
- #undef STANDARD_INCLUDE_DIR
- #define STANDARD_INCLUDE_DIR 0
- #define STANDARD_STARTFILE_PREFIX_1 ""
- #define STANDARD_STARTFILE_PREFIX_2 ""' >> $file
- touch $file.orig
- done</userinput></screen>
- <para>In case the above seems hard to follow, let's break it down a bit.
- First we find all the files under the
- <filename class="directory">gcc/config</filename> directory that are named
- either <filename>linux.h</filename>, <filename>linux64.h</filename> or
- <filename>sysv4.h</filename>.
- For each file found, we copy it to a file of the same name but with an added
- suffix of <quote>.orig</quote>. Then the first sed expression prepends
- <quote>/tools</quote> to every instance of <quote>/lib/ld</quote>,
- <quote>/lib64/ld</quote> or <quote>/lib32/ld</quote>, while the second one
- replaces hard-coded instances of <quote>/usr</quote>. Then we add our define
- statements which alter the include search path and the default startfile prefix
- to the end of the file.
- Finally, we use <command>touch</command> to update the timestamp on the copied files.
- When used in conjunction with <command>cp -u</command>, this prevents unexpected
- changes to the original files in case the commands are inadvertently run twice.
- </para>
- <para>On x86_64, unsetting the multilib spec for GCC ensures that it
- won't attempt to link against libraries on the host:</para>
- <screen><userinput remap="pre">case $(uname -m) in
- x86_64)
- for file in $(find gcc/config -name t-linux64) ; do \
- cp -v $file{,.orig}
- sed '/MULTILIB_OSDIRNAMES/d' $file.orig > $file
- done
- ;;
- esac</userinput></screen>
- <para>As in the first build of GCC it requires the GMP, MPFR and MPC
- packages. Unpack the tarballs and move them into the required directory
- names:</para>
- <screen><userinput remap="pre">tar -jxf ../mpfr-&mpfr-version;.tar.bz2
- mv -v mpfr-&mpfr-version; mpfr
- tar -jxf ../gmp-&gmp-version;.tar.bz2
- mv -v gmp-&gmp-version; gmp
- tar -zxf ../mpc-&mpc-version;.tar.gz
- mv -v mpc-&mpc-version; mpc</userinput></screen>
- <para>Create a separate build directory again:</para>
- <screen><userinput remap="pre">mkdir -v ../gcc-build
- cd ../gcc-build</userinput></screen>
- <para>Before starting to build GCC, remember to unset any environment
- variables that override the default optimization flags.</para>
- <para>Now prepare GCC for compilation:</para>
- <screen><userinput remap="configure">CC="$LFS_TGT-gcc -B/tools/lib/" \
- AR=$LFS_TGT-ar RANLIB=$LFS_TGT-ranlib \
- ../gcc-&gcc-version;/configure --prefix=/tools \
- --with-local-prefix=/tools --enable-clocale=gnu \
- --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix \
- --enable-__cxa_atexit --enable-languages=c,c++ \
- --disable-libstdcxx-pch --disable-multilib \
- --disable-bootstrap</userinput></screen>
- <variablelist>
- <title>The meaning of the new configure options:</title>
- <varlistentry>
- <term><parameter>--enable-clocale=gnu</parameter></term>
- <listitem>
- <para>This option ensures the correct locale model is selected
- for the C++ libraries under all circumstances. If the configure
- script finds the <emphasis>de_DE</emphasis> locale installed,
- it will select the correct gnu locale model. However, if the
- <emphasis>de_DE</emphasis> locale is not installed, there is the
- risk of building Application Binary Interface (ABI)-incompatible
- C++ libraries because the incorrect generic locale model may be
- selected.</para>
- </listitem>
- </varlistentry>
- <varlistentry>
- <term><parameter>--enable-threads=posix</parameter></term>
- <listitem>
- <para>This enables C++ exception handling for multi-threaded code.</para>
- </listitem>
- </varlistentry>
- <varlistentry>
- <term><parameter>--enable-__cxa_atexit</parameter></term>
- <listitem>
- <para>This option allows use of <function>__cxa_atexit</function>,
- rather than <function>atexit</function>, to register C++ destructors
- for local statics and global objects. This option is essential for
- fully standards-compliant handling of destructors. It also affects
- the C++ ABI, and therefore results in C++ shared libraries and C++
- programs that are interoperable with other Linux distributions.</para>
- </listitem>
- </varlistentry>
- <varlistentry>
- <term><parameter>--enable-languages=c,c++</parameter></term>
- <listitem>
- <para>This option ensures that both the C and C++ compilers are
- built.</para>
- </listitem>
- </varlistentry>
- <varlistentry>
- <term><parameter>--disable-libstdcxx-pch</parameter></term>
- <listitem>
- <para>Do not build the pre-compiled header (PCH) for
- <filename class="libraryfile">libstdc++</filename>. It takes up a
- lot of space, and we have no use for it.</para>
- </listitem>
- </varlistentry>
- <varlistentry>
- <term><parameter>--disable-bootstrap</parameter></term>
- <listitem>
- <para>For native builds of GCC, the default is to do a "bootstrap"
- build. This does not just compile GCC, but compiles it several times.
- It uses the programs compiled in a first round to compile itself a
- second time, and then again a third time. The second and third
- iterations are compared to make sure it can reproduce itself
- flawlessly. This also implies that it was compiled correctly.
- However, the LFS build method should provide a solid compiler
- without the need to bootstrap each time.</para>
- </listitem>
- </varlistentry>
- </variablelist>
- <para>Compile the package:</para>
- <screen><userinput remap="make">make LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$(pwd)/$(../gcc-&gcc-version;/config.guess)/libgcc</userinput></screen>
- <para>Install the package:</para>
- <screen><userinput remap="install">make install</userinput></screen>
- <para>As a finishing touch, create a symlink. Many programs and scripts
- run <command>cc</command> instead of <command>gcc</command>, which is
- used to keep programs generic and therefore usable on all kinds of UNIX
- systems where the GNU C compiler is not always installed. Running
- <command>cc</command> leaves the system administrator free to decide
- which C compiler to install:</para>
- <screen><userinput remap="install">ln -vs gcc /tools/bin/cc</userinput></screen>
- <caution>
- <para>At this point, it is imperative to stop and ensure that the basic
- functions (compiling and linking) of the new toolchain are working as
- expected. To perform a sanity check, run the following commands:</para>
- <screen><userinput>echo 'main(){}' > dummy.c
- cc dummy.c
- readelf -l a.out | grep ': /tools'</userinput></screen>
- <para>If everything is working correctly, there should be no errors,
- and the output of the last command will be of the form:</para>
- <screen><computeroutput>[Requesting program interpreter: /tools/lib/ld-linux.so.2]</computeroutput></screen>
- <para>Note that <filename class="directory">/tools/lib</filename>, or
- <filename class="directory">/tools/lib64</filename> for 64-bit machines
- appears as the prefix of the dynamic linker.</para>
- <para>If the output is not shown as above or there was no output at all,
- then something is wrong. Investigate and retrace the steps to find out
- where the problem is and correct it. This issue must be resolved before
- continuing on. First, perform the sanity check again, using
- <command>gcc</command> instead of <command>cc</command>. If this works,
- then the <filename class="symlink">/tools/bin/cc</filename> symlink is
- missing. Install the symlink as per above.
- Next, ensure that the <envar>PATH</envar> is correct. This
- can be checked by running <command>echo $PATH</command> and verifying that
- <filename class="directory">/tools/bin</filename> is at the head of the
- list. If the <envar>PATH</envar> is wrong it could mean that you are not
- logged in as user <systemitem class="username">lfs</systemitem> or that
- something went wrong back in <xref linkend="ch-tools-settingenviron"
- role="."/></para>
- <para>Once all is well, clean up the test files:</para>
- <screen><userinput>rm -v dummy.c a.out</userinput></screen>
- </caution>
