fixinc.sh is designed to be run by (for
the */* involved):
bootstrap/libexec/gcc/*/*/install-tools/mkheaders
and that mkheaders does more than just fixinc.sh
as far as changing headers goes, such as limits.h
and gsyslmits.h and syslimits.h .
In more detail:
The mkheaders core loop looks like:
for ml in `cat ${itoolsdatadir}/fixinc_list`; do
sysroot_headers_suffix=`echo ${ml} | sed -e 's/;.*$//'`
multi_dir=`echo ${ml} | sed -e 's/^[^;]*;//'`
subincdir=${incdir}${multi_dir}
. ${itoolsdatadir}/mkheaders.conf
if [ x${STMP_FIXINC} != x ] ; then
TARGET_MACHINE="${target}" target_canonical="${target}" \
MACRO_LIST="${itoolsdatadir}/macro_list" \
/bin/sh ./fixinc.sh ${subincdir} \
${isysroot}${SYSTEM_HEADER_DIR} ${OTHER_FIXINCLUDES_DIRS}
rm -f ${subincdir}/syslimits.h
if [ -f ${subincdir}/limits.h ]; then
mv ${subincdir}/limits.h ${subincdir}/syslimits.h
else
cp ${itoolsdatadir}/gsyslimits.h ${subincdir}/syslimits.h
fi
fi
cp ${itoolsdatadir}/include${multi_dir}/limits.h ${subincdir}
done
Note that mkheaders also provides various definitions to
fixinc.sh, such as MACRO_LIST . Direct use of fixinc.sh
likely requires providing appropriate alternate
definitions for such.
I'll note that:
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/7.1/chapter06/gcc.html
reports as one of its steps (quote):
The fixincludes script is known to occasionally erroneously attempt
to "fix" the system headers installed so far. As the headers up to
this point are known to not require fixing, issue the following
command to prevent the fixincludes script from running:
sed -i 's@\./fixinc\.sh@-c true@' gcc/Makefile.in
(End quote)
So seems that disabling fixinc.sh's use is fairly common when
the headers are known to "not require fixing" (i.e., are known
to already be gcc compliant).
This still leaves the limits.h and gsystemlimits.h and
syslimits.h code in place but does block most of the
activity.
