compiler-rt-libc-11.1.0/lib/darwin/libclang_rt.*_osx.a
retained reference to SDKs (which we forbid for final stdenv).

we have managed to migrate to NIX_CFLAGS_COMPILE to the env attrset well
enough that we don't need to support having it toplevel. mkDerivation
will throw if there's a attr in both env and toplevel so no need to
worry about that
I broke `pkgsMusl` with #209870.
Something odd is happening with `xgcc` (the temporary compiler that
should be used only to compile `gcc`, although we are using it to
compile a temporary `patchelf` too) and `libstdc++`.
The temporary fix in this commit is to use `-static-libstdc++` for
the ephemeral `patchelf` built by `xgcc`. It isn't pretty, but it
appears to work.
Incorporates:
- https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/224945
The stage before `xgcc` creates the first compiled patchelf
(i.e. not from bootstrapFiles).
The `xgcc` stage was inadvertently switching *back* to using the
patchelf *from* the bootstrapFiles.
The first commit in this PR adds self-checking comments (assertions)
to make it clear where each stage's patchelf comes from.
The second commit fixes the bug, and updates the self-checking
comments.
Without the change when I attempt to built `nixpkgs` with weekly
`gcc-13` (it pulls in `flex` as a build input`) I am getting build
failure related to glibc mix caused by glibc loading:
...-binutils-patchelfed-ld-2.40/bin/ld: ...-xgcc-13.0.0/libexec/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/13.0.1/liblto_plugin.so:
error loading plugin: ...-bootstrap-tools/lib/libpthread.so.0: undefined symbol: __libc_vfork, version GLIBC_PRIVATE
The change disables LTO plugin entirely to avoid loading of `glibc` mix.
This commit adds `gcc/common/checksum.nix`, which contains code
common to both gcc11 and gcc12, implementing the `enableChecksum`
feature.
When gcc's built-in bootstrap (`--enable-bootstrap`) is used, gcc
compiles itself three times and compares a hash of the unlinked `.o`
files from the second and third compilation. The
`enableChecksum=true` parameter performs the same comparison as part
of the `postInstall` phase.
Notably, `enableChecksum=true` can be used with `enableBootstrap=false`.

Our bootstrap-files unpacker has always relied on a lot of unstated
assumptions, one of them being that every library has a DT_NEEDED
for librt.so, so patchelf'ing something into the RUNPATH into
librt.so means that it will be searched for every library load in
all of the bootstrap-files.
Unfortunately that assumption is not true for libgcc.
This causes problems, because patchelf links against libgcc (and
against libstdc++, which links against libgcc). So we can't use
patchelf on libgcc, because it needs libgcc, so patchelf doesn't
work until libgcc is patchelfed.
The robust solution here is to use static linking for the copy of
patchelf that is shipped with the bootstrap-files. We don't have to
go all the way to a statically linked libc; just -static-libgcc and
-static-libstdc++ are enough to break the circular dependency.
Right now our bootstrapFiles-selecting algorithm uses the
`loongson2f.nix` bootstrapFiles (which were not built by Hydra).
These bootstrapFiles don't work anymore. They were added in 2010 by
40405d03ac.
This commit causes mipsel-linux native builds to use the Hydra-built
bootstrap files from this PR instead:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/183487
The NIX_LIB64|32_IN_SELF_RPATH environment variables control whether
to add lib64 and lib32 to rpaths. However, they're set depending
on the build paltform, not the target platform and thus their values
are incorrect for for cross-builds.
On the other hand, setting them according to the build platform introduce
pointless differences in build outputs; see #221350 for details.
This change fixes the issues by boldly removes the NIX_LIB*_IN_SELF_RPATH
facility altogether, in the hope that it is no longer necessary. They
were introduced in 2009, long before nixpkgs had good support for
cross-builds.
Fixes#221350
See https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/222792#pullrequestreview-1356114111
You can't just `lib.filter _ lib.systems.all` -- that throws away
important information, leading to nixpkgs disagreeing with itself
like this:
```
$ NIXPKGS_ALLOW_BROKEN=1 nix-instantiate . -A pkgsStatic.systemd
error: Package ‘systemd-252.5’ in ... is only supported on ... x86_64-linux but not on requested x86_64-linux, refusing to evaluate.
```
After:
```
$ NIXPKGS_ALLOW_BROKEN=1 nix-instantiate . -A pkgsStatic.systemd
error: Package ‘systemd-252.5’ in ... is not available on the requested hostPlatform:
hostPlatform.config = "x86_64-unknown-linux-musl"
package.meta.platforms = [
"aarch64-linux"
"armv5tel-linux"
"armv6l-linux"
"armv7a-linux"

"x86_64-linux"
]
package.meta.badPlatforms = [
{
isStatic = true;
parsed = { };
}
]
, refusing to evaluate.
```
The primary motivating example is openssl:
Before the change full package build took 1m54s minutes.
After the change full package build takes 59s.
About a 2x speedup.
The difference is visible because openssl builds hundreds of manpages
spawning a perl process per manual in `install` phase. Such a workload
is very easy to parallelize.
Another example would be `autotools`+`libtool` based build system where
install step requires relinking. The more binaries there are to relink
the more gain it will be to do it in parallel.
The change enables parallel installs by default only for buiilds that
already have parallel builds enabled. There is a high chance those build
systems already handle parallelism well but some packages will fail.
Consistently propagated the enableParallelBuilding to:
- cmake (enabled by default, similar to builds)
- ninja (set parallelism explicitly, don't rely on default)
- bmake (enable when requested)
- scons (enable when requested)
- meson (set parallelism explicitly, don't rely on default)
- waf (set parallelism explicitly, don't rely on default)
- qmake-4/5/6 (enable by default, similar to builds)
- xorg (always enable, similar to builds)

for pointing out that the failure that @matthewbauer was

requirement that #146275 will relax
`lld` has had `--build-id` support dating back to LLVM4: https://reviews.llvm.org/D18091
This predates every `llvmPackages_` version currently in nixpkgs (and
certainly every version actually still used in `useLLVM` stdenvs) so
with the previous commit (asking `ld` for sufficiently long SHA1 hashes)
I think we can safely enable `separateDebugInfo` when using LLVM
bintools.
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

PR #208478 added a lot of documentation about which packages were
rebuilt in each stage of the stdenv bootstrap. However nothing
checks that these comments agree with reality; they can bitrot over
time. This PR rewrites those comments as assertions, so they cannot
bitrot.
This conversion did expose some ambiguity in our scheme for naming
the stages. Suppose that `pkgs.stdenv.name=="stdenv-stage4", then
which of these is "the stage4 coreutils"?
```
pkgs.coreutils
pkgs.stdenv.__bootPackages.coreutils
```
The choice is arbitrary, and both choices have confusing corner
cases. We should revisit this at some point.

platform.uname.processor seems to be what we want in many more cases
than what we were using before — it does the right thing for aarch64,
x86_64, riscv32, riscv64, mips, mips64, powerpc, and powerpc64 (the
latter three of which were broken before).
This fixes cross-compilation of systemd for PowerPC/POWER platforms.
Derivations listed as disallowedReferences or disallowedRequisites,
currently end up as build-time dependencies.
This is problematic since the disallowed derivations will be built by nix as
build-time dependencies, while those derivations might take a very long time
to build, or might not even build successfully on the platform used.
However, in order to scan for disallowed references in the final output,
knowing the out path is sufficient, and the out path can be calculated from
the derivation without needing to build it, saving time and resources.
While the problem is less severe for allowedReferences and allowedRequisites,
since we want the derivation to be built eventually, we would still like to
get the error early and without having to wait while nix builds a derivation
that might not be used (e.g. if we listed the wrong one).
A few potentially disruptive changes:
- binutils does not embed ${binutils-unwrapped}/lib as a default library
search path anymore. This will cause link failures for -lbfd -lopcodes
users that did not declare their dependency on those libraries. They
will need to add `libbfd` and `libopcodes` attributes to build inputs.
- `libbfd` and `libopcodes` attributes now just reference
`binutils-unwrapped.{dev,lib}` pair of attributes without patching
`binutils` build system.
We don't patch build system anymore and use multiple outputs out of
existing `binutils` build. That makes the result more maintainable: no
need to handle ever growing list of dependencied of `libbfd`. This time
new addition was `libsframe`.
To accomodate `out` / `lib` output split I had to remove `lib` -> `bin`
backreference by removing legacy lookup path for plugins.
I also did not enable `zstd` just yet as `nixpkgs` version of `zstd`
package pulls in `cmake` into bootstrap sequence.
Changes: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gnu/2023-01/msg00003.html
FreeBSD doesn't use LLVM's cxxabi implementation, for backwards
compatibility reasons. Software expects the libcxxrt API when
building on FreeBSD. This fixes the build of
pkgsCross.x86_64-freebsd.boost.
Some other packages, for example ruby gems via buildRubyGem, use a
variable called "type" internally, which is overwritten here and
causes failures like:
failure: $gempkg path unspecified

After https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/209054 we started moving

Note that bootstrap itself did not break. The change only expands
handcrafted `-rpath` entries.
The stdenv bootstrap creates several wrappers around binutils, and
gives them the exact same drvName as the binutils package itself.
These wrappers cost almost nothing to create (they are just file
copies and patchelf runs, not builds), so we should distinguish them
from expensive binutils builds with a unique pname. This commit
does that.
`hasUnsupportedPlatform` was not updated with #37395, so it does not
understand attrsets in `meta.[bad]platforms`. In particular,
attrsets in `meta.badPlatforms` will "fail open" and be ignored.
Let's use `lib.meta.availableOn` instead of duplicating its logic.

Right now we build gettext several times during the bootstrap.
Gettext's build process is "embarrassingly serial", so avoiding
rebuilding it speeds things up considerably.
otherwise the build just fails with 'make: *** No rule to make target 'install'. Stop.'
and update buildPhase message
i don't know if the 'makefile may have been created in buildPhase' is
true but i guess it might be possible
This change allows building new gcc during bootstrap without fear of
pulling in outdated libstdc++.so after g++ switched from bootstrapTools
to freshly built g++.
Noticed when tried to add early bootstrap stage to rebuild `gcc` before
`glibc` is fully untangled from `bootstrapTools` as a failure to built
`binutils`:
ld: dwp.o: in function `__gnu_cxx::new_allocator<gold::Dwp_output_file::Contribution>::allocate(unsigned long, void const*)':
/nix/store/...-gcc-11.3.0/include/c++/11.3.0/ext/new_allocator.h:116: undefined reference to `std::__throw_bad_array_new_length()'
The change survives existing bootstrap and unblockes early `gcc` bootstrap.
Just a few comments added:
- added a few one-liners to explore which tools are rebuilt at each
stdenv iteration during bootstrap
- explicitly listed available toolchains and their sources for on each
bootstrap step: glibc, binutils, gcc, coreutils.
- added mention of static libraries linked into gcc

The documentation for `meta.sourceProvenance` in
`doc/stdenv/meta.chapter.md` says: "the `meta.sourceProvenance`
attribute should be a list containing one or more value..."
Let's update check-meta.nix to require that `meta.sourceProvenance` is
a list, as the documentation says, rather than a single element.
Adding two extra keystrokes `[` and `]` when filling out this field is
an insignificant burden for package authors, and being able to assume
that the `meta.sourceProvenance` field is always a list greatly
simplifies any code that acts on the value of this field.
Since `meta.sourceProvenance` was just merged a few hours ago now is
the easiest time to fix this: nobody is using the feature yet.
Without the change we don't propagate `enableParallelBuilding = true`
and leave most builds sequential.
Noticed on `mythtv` package which did not specify parallelism and
`config.enableParallelBuildingByDefault = true` had no effect.
Derivations not using `__structuredAttrs` should not attempt to set
environment variables from `env`.
Derivations using `__structuredAttrs` should fail if `env` is not
exportable.

This is needed in order to mark a certain derivation containing a Nix
expression tarball to Hydra so that it is recognised as a channel.
When I first got an evaluation error due to using this meta attribute, I
was under the impression that nobody outside of Vuizvui[1] is using this
feature and that we don't have any occurrence of isHydraChannel in
Nixpkgs.
However, when working around[2] the issue I assumed that it's not
something that should be included in Nixpkgs because we're not using it
there.
It turned out that my assumption was wrong and we *do* use the attribute
in Nixpkgs, namely via releaseTools.channel, which is similar to what
we're doing in Vuizvui.
Since we already include a bunch of undocumented attributes in
metaTypes, it only makes sense to add isHydraChannel as well since it's
actually documented in the Hydra documentation[3].

Passing `-l$NIX_BUILD_CORES` improperly limits the overall system load.
For a build machine which is configured to run `$B` builds where each
build gets `total cores / B` cores (`$C`), passing `-l $C` to make will
improperly limit the load to `$C` instead of `$B * $C`.
This effect becomes quite pronounced on machines with 80 cores, with
40 simultaneous builds and a cores limit of 2. On a machine with this
configuration, Nix will run 40 builds and make will limit the overall
system load to approximately 2. A build machine with this many cores
can happily run with a load approaching 80.
A non-solution is to oversubscribe the machine, by picking a larger
`$C`. However, there is no way to divide the number of cores in a way
which fairly subdivides the available cores when `$B` is greater than
1.
There has been exploration of passing a jobserver in to the sandbox,
or sharing a jobserver between all the builds. This is one option, but
relatively complicated and only supports make. Lots of other software
uses its own implementation of `-j` and doesn't support either `-l` or
the Make jobserver.
For the case of an interactive user machine, the user should limit
overall system load using `$B`, `$C`, and optionally systemd's
cpu/network/io limiting features.
Making this change should significantly improve the utilization of our
build farm, and improve the throughput of Hydra.
Stdenv on aarch64-darwin pulls in (bootstrap-stage4) objc4, unlike
x86_64. However derivations that otherwise depend on objc4 would use a
a different objc4 derivation on top of the final stdenv.
Because this library defines an LLVM module, having multiple instances
of it in the import path will interfere with builds.
This PR provides the Hydra-generated bootstrap tarballs for mips64el-linux-gnuabin32.
With this PR we now have the bootstrap-file for all three little-endian ABIs on mips: n64, n32, and o32. I do not currently plan to do big-endian mips unless some motivation arises; all mips chips are bi-endian and Debian has dropped big-endian support due to lack of interest.
I'll be following the script used in #151399, #168199, and #183487.
Files came from [this](https://hydra.nixos.org/build/188389586#tabs-summary) Hydra build, which used nixpkgs revision 97d9c84e1d to instantiate:
```
/nix/store/hakn8s85s9011v61r6svp5qy8x1y64fv-stdenv-bootstrap-tools-mips64el-unknown-linux-gnuabin32.drv
```
and then built:
```
/nix/store/rjgybpnf3yiqyhvl2n2lx31jf800fii2-stdenv-bootstrap-tools-mips64el-unknown-linux-gnuabin32
```
I downloaded these files from Hydra and prefetched them into the nix store with the following commands:
```
STOREPATH=rjgybpnf3yiqyhvl2n2lx31jf800fii2-stdenv-bootstrap-tools-mips64el-unknown-linux-gnuabin32
OPTIONS="--option binary-caches https://cache.nixos.org --option trusted-public-keys cache.nixos.org-1:6NCHdD59X431o0gWypbMrAURkbJ16ZPMQFGspcDShjY="

nix store prefetch-file --executable \
file://$(nix store add-path --name busybox $(nix-store ${OPTIONS} -r /nix/store/${STOREPATH})/on-server/busybox)
```
These commands produced the following output:
```

```
I used the hashes from the output above to create the `fetchurl` invocation which is part of this commit.
I then started the bootstrap with the following command:
```
nix build -L -f . --arg localSystem '(import ./lib).systems.examples.mips64el-linux-gnuabin32' hello
```
As @lovesegfault requested, here are the the `sha256sum`s of all the `on-server` components for extra verification:
```
sha256sum /nix/store/${STOREPATH}/on-server/*
```

inherit_errexit wasn’t available in bash 3. We have a check to show a
nice error message, but that check is after we set inherit_errexit in
setup.sh. So we can just move this to below the BASH_VERSINFO check.
gcc stopped using libelf in commit 48215350c24 ("re PR lto/46273 (Failed

Bootstrap tools don't use it either.
This PR updates the Hydra-generated bootstrap tarballs for
powerpc64le-linux. The bootstrap-files referenced prior to this
commit will only bootstrap in a nixpkgs which has
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/181802. That PR was closed in
favor of https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/181943, which is a
cleaner solution but which requires regenerating the bootstrap-files.
I'll be following the script established in
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/151399, which I previously used
in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/168199.
Files came from [this](https://hydra.nixos.org/build/186237511) Hydra build, which used nixpkgs revision ac43c44478 to instantiate:

and then built:
```
/nix/store/fklpm7fy6cp5wz55w0gd8wakyqvzapjx-stdenv-bootstrap-tools-powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu

I downloaded these files from Hydra with the following commands:

I then prefetched them into `/nix/store` with:

And started the bootstrap with the following command:
```

This is a change for `powerpc-linux` but that is ancient and I don't
think it matters. The impure bootstrap that was previously assigned to
it has probably bitrotted anyways.
Before the change an attempt to use `gnumake.override { guileSupport = true; }`
caused recursion in bootstrap stages as guileSupport pulls in guile and it's
dependencies.
To restore the bootstrap the change unconditionally sets
`guileSupport = false;` for `gnumake`.

Closes#178625
The `busybox` version of `mktemp` requires exactly six `X` characters
in the argument to `mktemp`, unlike the `coreutils` version of `mktemp`.
Let's accomodate packages, like `epson-escpr2`, which fool `setup.sh`
into using the `busybox` version instead of the `stdenv` version.
In 5643714dea, I changed pkgs/stdenv/linux/make-bootstrap-tools.nix
to take a package set instead of system and localSystem arguments, but
I forgot to update make-bootstrap-tools-cross.nix.
Fixes: 5643714dea ("stdenvBootstrapTools: inherit {cross,local}System")
Since 97c43828fb the `file` package has
been part of stdenv, and no longer needs to be listed explicitly as a
build input. Let's remove the platform-specific inclusion for mingw64
as suggested by @mehmooda:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/168413#issuecomment-1147370500
I traced the line removed by this commit through the `git blame`; it
was initially added in this commit (and then shuffled around a few
dozen times by refactorings):

The commit message indicates that `libpng-1.6.20` was current at the

archives](https://github.com/glennrp/libpng) available in git form,
the older versions don't have their autoconfery vendored in, so I
can't link to them. Fortunately the relevant bit hasn't changed since

During stdenv bootstrapping, coreutils is built twice. This makes
troubleshooting very difficult, because both packages have
name="coreutils", so it is a hassle to figure out "which coreutils am
I using / is not building"?
The first of these builds is used only in stage4, and is not part of
the final stdenv. Let's label that one with a different `name`
attribute to make it obvious which is which.
The usage of `makeStaticLibraries` in stdenv/linux/default.nix is
prefaced by this comment:
# Link GCC statically against GMP etc. This makes sense because
# these builds of the libraries are only used by GCC, so it
# reduces the size of the stdenv closure.
However "these builds of the libraries are only used by GCC" is not
actually true. As currently written, the stage4 coreutils links
against these customized, static-ified libraries.
Beside the fact that the code doesn't actually do what it says, this
causes other problems as well. One example is #168983, which arises
because have a dynamically-linked binary (coreutils) which is built
from statically-linked libraries (libgmp.a); doing this causes mayhem
on platforms where `-fstack-protector` needs an auxiliary
`libssp.{so,a}` library; we end up with link failures because some
parts of the resulting binary want `libssp.so` and other parts want
`libssp_nonshared.a`.
Let's make the code actually do what the comment says, by moving these
definitions into the `gcc-unwrapped` override. This will cause the
stage4-coreutils to link against libgmp dynamically, rather than
statically. For this reason this commit depends on the previous
commit, which allows that to be done without creating a forbidden
reference from stdenv-final to the bootstrap-files.
As explained in the comment, this ensures that stage4-coreutils does
not leak a reference to the bootstrap-files by way of libgmp. This
will allow the next patch in this series to build stage4-coreutils
using a dynamically-linked (rather than statically-linked) libgmp.
It's expected that attributes in the top-level package set will all use
that package set, but this wasn't the case for the bootstrap tools.
This led some very confusing behaviour:
- pkgsMusl.stdenvBootstrapTools would build glibc bootstrap tools
- stdenvBootstrapTools was _always_ cross compiled, even if
Nixpkgs wasn't, because it always set crossSystem. This also didn't
match the behaviour of using make-bootstrap-tools.nix as an
entrypoint, where crossSystem would default to null.
For the Linux stdenv, I've made the ideal fix, which is to make pkgs an
argument rather than taking the arguments for pkgs, and then
re-importing it. This means it'll always use exactly the same package
set that's calling it, and should also mean faster eval due to not
importing Nixpkgs twice.
The Darwin stdenv is more complicated, and I'm not able to easily test
it, so I wasn't confident in making the same fix there. Instead, I've
just made sure crossSystem and localSystem are set to the correct values
so they're not always cross compiled and match the parent package set's.
It would still be preferable if somebody could make Darwin's
make-bootstrap-tools.nix take pkgs as an argument, rather than all the
arguments for pkgs.
it may be what the license handling code does, but it's confusing and not very useful

These servers apparently no longer exist, since September 2, 2021[1].
If somebody needs this for non-Scaleway machines, they should suggest
its reintroduction with a different name.
