I temporarily re-enabled binutils bootstrap in trying to figure out the r339898 regression with retpoline, so things may have changed in light of r340681. If it is true that the only assembly files that clang IAS cannot assemble are for amd64 and i386, has there been any research into nasm and yasm at least? nasm is specified as a build dependency in certain multimedia/ ports, and yasm in gecko@, for amd64 and i386 assembly code. Both are licensed under some BSD licence variant. -- Charlie Li Can't think of a witty .sigline today… (This email address is for mailing list use only; replace local-part with vishwin for off-list communication) signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

unknown -z value: common-page-size=4096
I've switched to using devel/xtoolchain-llvm70 yesterday to build amd64 base starting with r338990, and among other issues, ld.lld70 refuses to link the kernel: Building /usr/local/obj/usr/local/src/amd64.amd64/sys/ARDMORE/kernel.full --- kernel.full --- linking kernel.full ld.lld: error: unknown -z value: common-page-size=4096 ld.lld: error: unknown -z value: ifunc-noplt *** [kernel.full] Error code 1 make[2]: stopped in /usr/local/obj/usr/local/src/amd64.amd64/sys/ARDMORE (ARDMORE is basically GENERIC-NODEBUG, not that it matters) The ifunc-noplt is a known issue, it obviously didn't make it upstream in time for LLVM 7.0.0, and thus we carry the feature downstream. The crux of this link error though, emaste@ quipped in PR 230604 that LLD prior to 7.0.0 accepted but ignored unknown options, but now at least 7.0.0 disallows unknown options entirely. Which brings up the -z common-page-size=4096: has LLD been ignoring this part the whole time, and is it of any meaningful use anymore (it seemed to mean something with bfd)? -- Charlie Li Can't think of a witty .sigline today… (This email address is for mailing list use only; replace local-part with vishwin for off-list communication) signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
