In an attempt to build python2.7 on a T2000 (SPARC), I received this
error:
/usr/gcc/4.4.4/bin/gcc -m32 -O3 -mno-app-regs -fPIC -DPIC -std=c99
-D_XOPEN_SOURCE=600 -m32 -fPIC -DPIC -R/usr/gnu/lib -L/usr/gnu/lib -o python \
Modules/python.o \
-L. -lpython2.7 -lsocket -lnsl -ldl-lm
Undefined first referenced
symbol in file
asm ./libpython2.7.so
ld: fatal: symbol referencing errors. No output written to python
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
This happens because Python/ceval.c contains two instances of code
like this:
#if defined(__sparc)
+ asm("nop");
#endif
This code was inserted by a patch called 05-dtrace.patch . The file
dtrace.patch.diff, attached to this message, shows the changes I made
to the patch. These changes fix the problem.
One of the modules also failed to build, producing these errors:
/export/home/mills/Downloads/code/oi-userland/components/python/python27/Python-2.7.14/Modules/_ctypes/libffi/src/sparc/ffi.c:526:
error: 'asm' undeclared (first use in this function)
/export/home/mills/Downloads/code/oi-userland/components/python/python27/Python-2.7.14/Modules/_ctypes/libffi/src/sparc/ffi.c:526:
error: expected ';' before 'volatile'
The new patch 31-sparc.patch, also attached, fixes this problem.
Finally, I updated COMPONENT_REVISION in the Makefile to signal the
presence of the adjusted patch and the new one as in the file
Makefile.diff, also attached.
These changes only affect the SPARC build. Later python versions
likely require the same changes, but I haven't checked.
I'd appreciate it if somebody could verify that these changes are
correct. I assume they are. The build completes after these changes
are made.
