[Sending to binutils, gdb-patches and gcc-patches, since it touches the
top-level Makefile/configure]
I have my debuginfod library installed in a non-standard location
(/opt/debuginfod), which requires me to set
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/debuginfod/lib/pkg-config. If I just set it during
configure:
$ PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/debuginfod/lib/pkg-config ./configure --with-debuginfod
$ make
or
$ ./configure --with-debuginfod PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/debuginfod/lib/pkg-config
$ make
Then PKG_CONFIG_PATH is only present (and ignored) during the top-level
configure. When running make (which runs gdb's and binutils'
configure), PKG_CONFIG_PATH is not set, which results in their configure
script not finding the library:
checking for libdebuginfod >= 0.179... no
configure: error: "--with-debuginfod was given, but libdebuginfod is missing or unusable."
Change the top-level configure/Makefile system to capture the value
passed when configuring the top-level and pass it down to
subdirectories (similar to CFLAGS, LDFLAGS, etc).
I don't know much about the top-level build system, so I really don't
know if I did this correctly. The changes are:
- Use AC_SUBST(PKG_CONFIG_PATH) in configure.ac, so that
@PKG_CONFIG_PATH@ gets replaced with the actual PKG_CONFIG_PATH value
in config files (i.e. Makefile)
- Add a PKG_CONFIG_PATH Makefile variable in Makefile.tpl, initialized
to @PKG_CONFIG_PATH@
- Add PKG_CONFIG_PATH to HOST_EXPORTS in Makefile.tpl, which are the
variables set when running the sub-configures
I initially added PKG_CONFIG_PATH to flags_to_pass, in Makefile.def, but
I don't think it's needed. AFAIU, this defines the flags to pass down
when calling "make" in subdirectories. We only need PKG_CONFIG_PATH to
be passed down during configure. After that, it's captured in
gdb/config.status, so even if a "make" causes a re-configure later
(because gdb/configure has changed, for example), the PKG_CONFIG_PATH
value will be remembered.
ChangeLog:
* configure.ac: Add AC_SUBST(PKG_CONFIG_PATH).
* configure: Re-generate.
* Makefile.tpl (HOST_EXPORTS): Pass PKG_CONFIG_PATH.
(PKG_CONFIG_PATH): New.
* Makefile.in: Re-generate.

The top-level configure script is shared between the gcc repository
and the binutils-gdb repository.
The target_configdirs variable in the configure.ac script, defines
sub-directories that contain components that should be built for the
target using the target tools.
Some components, e.g. zlib, are built as both host and target
libraries.
This causes problems for binutils-gdb. If we run 'make all' in the
binutils-gdb repository we end up trying to build a target version of
the zlib library, which requires the target compiler be available.
Often the target compiler isn't immediately available, and so the
build fails.
The problem with zlib impacted a previous attempt to synchronise the
top-level configure scripts from gcc to binutils-gdb, see this thread:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2019-May/107094.html
And I'm in the process of importing libbacktrace in to binutils-gdb,
which is also a host and target library, and triggers the same issues.
I believe that for binutils-gdb, at least at the moment, there are no
target libraries that we need to build.
In the configure script we build three lists of things we want to
build, $configdirs, $build_configdirs, and $target_configdirs, we also
build two lists of things we don't want to build, $skipdirs and
$noconfigdirs. We then remove anything that is in the lists of things
not to build, from the list of things that should be built.
My proposal is to add everything in target_configdirs into skipdirs,
if the source tree doesn't contain a gcc/ sub-directory. The result
is that for binutils-gdb no target tools or libraries will be built,
while for the gcc repository, nothing should change.
If a user builds a unified source tree, then the target tools and
libraries should still be built as the gcc/ directory will be present.
I've tested a build of gcc on x86-64, and the same set of target
libraries still seem to get built. On binutils-gdb this change
resolves the issues with 'make all'.
ChangeLog:
* configure: Regenerate.
* configure.ac (skipdirs): Add the contents of target_configdirs if
we are not building gcc.

Add the --enable-pgo-build[=lto] configure option. When binutils+gdb
is not built together with GCC, --enable-pgo-build enables the PGO build:
1. First build with -fprofile-generate.
2. Use "make maybe-check-*" to generate profiling data and pass -i to make
to ignore errors when generating profiling data.
3. Use "make clean" to remove the previous build.
4. Rebuild with -fprofile-use.
With --enable-pgo-build=lto, -flto=jobserver -ffat-lto-objects are used
together with -fprofile-generate and -fprofile-use. Add '+' to the command
line for recursive make to support -flto=jobserver -ffat-lto-objects.
NB: --enable-pgo-build=lto enables the PGO build with LTO while
--enable-lto enables LTO support in toolchain.

An earlier patch changed gdbserver to use the already-built top-level
gnulib and gdbsupport. However, if one did a build that did not
include gdb, then gdbserver would fail to build.
The problem is that configure.ac only adds gnulib and gdbsupport to
the build when gdb is being built. This patch fixes the problem by
arranging for this to happen when gdbserver is built.

* configure: Rebuild.
* configure.ac (configdirs): Add gnulib and gdbsupport when building
gdbserver.
This patch moves gdbserver to the top level.
This patch is as close to a pure move as possible -- gdbserver still
builds its own variant of gnulib and gdbsupport. Changing this will
be done in a separate patch.
[v2] Note that, per Simon's review comment, this patch changes the
tree so that gdbserver is not built for or1k or score. This makes
sense, because there is apparently not actually a gdbserver port here.
[v3] This version of the patch also splits out some configury into a
new file, gdbserver/configure.host, so that the top-level configure
script can simply rely on it in order to decide whether gdbserver
should be built.
[v4] This version adds documentation and removes some unnecessary
top-level dependencies.
[v5] Update docs to mention "make all-gdbserver" and change how
top-level configure decides whether to build gdbserver, switching to a
single, shared script.

This patch moves the gdbsupport directory to the top level. This is
the next step in the ongoing project to move gdbserver to the top
level.
The bulk of this patch was created by "git mv gdb/gdbsupport gdbsupport".
This patch then adds a build system to gdbsupport and wires it into
the top level. Then it changes gdb to use the top-level build.
gdbserver, on the other hand, is not yet changed. It still does its
own build of gdbsupport.

debuginfod is a lightweight web service that indexes ELF/DWARF
debugging resources by build-id and serves them over HTTP. This patch
enables objdump and readelf to query debuginfod servers when they are
otherwise not able to find separate debug files. Binutils can be built
with debuginfod using the --with-debuginfod configure option. This
requires that libdebuginfod be installed and found at configure time.
debuginfod is packaged with elfutils, starting with version 0.178. For
more information see https://sourceware.org/elfutils/.

gdb should normally not be linked with -static-libstdc++. Currently
this has not caused problems, but it's incompatible with catching an
exception thrown from a shared library -- and a subsequent patch
changes gdb to do just this.
This patch adds a new --with-static-standard-libraries flag to the
top-level configure. It defaults to "auto", which means enabled if
gcc is being built, and disabled otherwise.

* configure: Rebuild.
* configure.ac: Add --with-static-standard-libraries.
This patch moves the gdb/gnulib subdirectory to the top level.
It adjusts the top-level build system to build gnulib when necessary,
and changes gdb to use this. However, gdbserver still builds its own
copy of gnulib, just from the new source location.
A small hack was needed to ensure that gnulib is only built when gdb
is enabled. The Makefile only provides an ordering -- the directory
must be mentioned in configdirs to actually be compiled at all.
Most of the patch is just a "git mv" of gnulib, though a few minor
path adjustments were needed in some files there.
Tested by the buildbot.

The bundled libreadline is always built, even if the system is
./configure'd --with-system-readline and the build libreadline.a is not
used.
Proposed patch:
Fix ./configure.ac not to proceed readline/, when --with-system-
readline is provided
This patch turns dependencies of non-bootstrap targets on bootstrap
targets for bootstrap builds into dependencies on stage_last. This
arrangement gets stage1-bubble to run from stage_last if we haven't
started a bootstrap yet, and to use the current stage otherwise. This
was already the case of target libs, just not of non-bootstrapped host
modules.
In order to retain preexisting dependencies in non-bootstrap builds,
or in gcc-less builds, this introduces support for @unless/@endunless
pairs in Makefile.in.
There is a remaining possibility of problem if activating, in a tree
configured for bootstrap, a parallel build of two or more modules, at
least one bootstrapped and one not. In this case, make might decide
to build stage_current and stage_last in parallel, the latter will
start a submake to build stage1 while the initial make, having
satisfied stage_current, proceeds to build the bootstrapped module in
non-bootstrapped configurations. The two builds will overlap and will
likely conflict. This situation does NOT arise in normal settings,
however: a post-bootstrap build of all-host all-target will indeed
activate such targets concurrently, but only after building all
bootstrapped modules successfully, and it will have both stage_last
and stage_current targets already satisfied, so the potential race
between builds will not arise.
Another remaining problem, that is slightly expanded with this patch,
is that of an interrupted build in a tree configured for bootstrap,
continued with a non-bootstrapped target. Target modules that were
not bootstrapped would already fail to complete the current stage when
activated explicitly in the command line for a retry; host modules,
however, would attempt to build their bootstrapped dependencies, which
is what led to the problem of concurrent builds addressed with this
patch. An interrupted or failed build might still recover correctly,
if the non-bootstrapped target is activated in both builds, because
then make will remove stage_last when its build command is
interrupted, so that it will attempt to recreate it with stage1-bubble
in the second try. A bootstrap build, however, will not be attempting
to build stage_last, so the file will remain and the retry won't go
through stage1-bubble. We have lived with that for target modules, so
we can probably live with that for host modules too.
Another undesirable consequence of this change is that non-boostrapped
host modules, in a tree configured for bootstrap, when activated as
make all-<module>, will build all of stage1 instead of only the
module's usual dependencies. This is intentional and necessary to fix
the parallel-build problem. If it's not desirable, disabling the
unnecessary bootstrap configuration will suffice to restore the
original set of dependencies.

When trying to run the update-gnulib.sh script in gdb, I get this:
Error: Wrong automake version (Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated, passed through in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/\${ <-- HERE ([^ =:+{}]+)}/ at /opt/automake/1.11.1/bin/automake line 4113.), we need 1.11.1.
Aborting.
Apparently, it's an issue with a regex in automake that triggers a
warning starting with Perl 5.22. It has been fixed in automake 1.15.1.
So I think it's a good excuse to bump the versions of autoconf and
automake used in the gnulib import. And to avoid requiring multiple
builds of autoconf/automake, it was suggested that we bump the required
version of those tools for all binutils-gdb.
For autoconf, the 2.69 version is universally available, so it's an easy
choice. For automake, different distros and distro versions have
different automake versions. But 1.15.1 seems to be the most readily
available as a package. In any case, it's easy to build it from source.
I removed the version checks from AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS and AC_PREREQ,
because I don't think they are useful in our case. They only specify a
lower bound for the acceptable version of automake/autoconf. That's
useful if you let the user choose the version of the tool they want to
use, but want to set a minimum version (because you use a feature that
was introduced in that version). In our case, we force people to use a
specific version anyway. For the autoconf version, we have the check in
config/override.m4 that enforces the version we want. It will be one
less thing to update next time we change autotools version.
I hit a few categories of problems that required some changes. They are
described below along with the chosen solutions.
Problem 1:
configure.ac:17: warning: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE: two- and three-arguments forms are deprecated. For more info, see:
configure.ac:17: http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#Modernize-AM_005fINIT_005fAUTOMAKE-invocation
Solution 1:
Adjust the code based on the example at that URL.
Problem 2 (in zlib/):
Makefile.am: error: required file './INSTALL' not found
Makefile.am: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'INSTALL'
Makefile.am: error: required file './NEWS' not found
Makefile.am: error: required file './AUTHORS' not found
Makefile.am: error: required file './COPYING' not found
Makefile.am: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'COPYING'
Solution 2:
Add the foreign option to AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
Problem 3:
doc/Makefile.am:20: error: support for Cygnus-style trees has been removed
Solution 3:
Remove the cygnus options.
Problem 4:
Makefile.am:656: warning: 'INCLUDES' is the old name for 'AM_CPPFLAGS' (or '*_CPPFLAGS')
Solution 4:
Rename "INCLUDES = " to "AM_CPPFLAGS += " (because AM_CPPFLAGS is
already defined earlier).
Problem 5:
doc/Makefile.am:71: warning: suffix '.texinfo' for Texinfo files is discouraged; use '.texi' instead
doc/Makefile.am: warning: Oops!
doc/Makefile.am: It appears this file (or files included by it) are triggering

doc/Makefile.am: Future automake versions will no longer place in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: (rather than in the srcdir) the generated '.info' files that
doc/Makefile.am: appear to be cleaned, by e.g. being listed in CLEANFILES or
doc/Makefile.am: DISTCLEANFILES.
doc/Makefile.am: If you want your '.info' files to be placed in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: rather than in the srcdir, you have to use the shiny new
doc/Makefile.am: 'info-in-builddir' automake option.
Solution 5:
Rename .texinfo files to .texi.
Problem 6:
doc/Makefile.am: warning: Oops!
doc/Makefile.am: It appears this file (or files included by it) are triggering
doc/Makefile.am: an undocumented, soon-to-be-removed automake hack.
doc/Makefile.am: Future automake versions will no longer place in the builddir

doc/Makefile.am: If you want your '.info' files to be placed in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: rather than in the srcdir, you have to use the shiny new
doc/Makefile.am: 'info-in-builddir' automake option.
Solution 6:
Remove the hack at the bottom of doc/Makefile.am and use
the info-in-builddir automake option.
Problem 7:
doc/Makefile.am:35: error: required file '../texinfo.tex' not found
doc/Makefile.am:35: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'texinfo.tex'
Solution 7:
Use the no-texinfo.tex automake option. We also have one in
texinfo/texinfo.tex, not sure if we should point to that, or move it
(or a newer version of it added with automake --add-missing) to
top-level.
Problem 8:
Makefile.am:131: warning: source file 'config/tc-aarch64.c' is in a subdirectory,
Makefile.am:131: but option 'subdir-objects' is disabled
automake: warning: possible forward-incompatibility.
automake: At least a source file is in a subdirectory, but the 'subdir-objects'
automake: automake option hasn't been enabled. For now, the corresponding output
automake: object file(s) will be placed in the top-level directory. However,
automake: this behaviour will change in future Automake versions: they will
automake: unconditionally cause object files to be placed in the same subdirectory
automake: of the corresponding sources.
automake: You are advised to start using 'subdir-objects' option throughout your
automake: project, to avoid future incompatibilities.
Solution 8:
Use subdir-objects, that means adjusting references to some .o that will now
be in config/.

Here's an extra one... I'll need to make some changes to the root

ChangeLog:
* configure.ac: Sync with GCC, remove MPX-related things.
Remove an LD subdirectory configuration error:
*** ld does not support target wasm32-unknown-none
*** see ld/configure.tgt for supported targets
make[1]: *** [configure-ld] Error 1
which prevents binutils for the WebAssembly target from being built
unless an explicit `--disable-ld' configuration option has been given.
Users must not have to disable features selected by default to get a
working configuration.

This patch removes the gas configure option:

and adds a toplevel configure option:

to enable compressed debug sections for gas, gold or ld by default. At
the moment, this configure option is ignored by gold and ld. For x86
Linux targets, default to compressing debug sections in gas.
