Bugzilla Automation <bugzi...@freebsd.org> has asked v...@freebsd.org for maintainer-feedback: Bug 244603: emulators/virtualbox-ose: use contemporary GCC instead of old llvm https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=244603
--- Description --- The bug in PR 236616 resulted in virtualbox getting pinned to llvm7. This is less than ideal, and in-fact has been broken by improvements to machine/atomic.h on x86 that require a more modern compiler. Switch the build to use GCC9. USE_GCC= any is not sufficient, as GCC8 doesn't support the feature used by atomic.h. The patches that were previously applied if COMPILER_TYPE == clang are actually needed by GCC9 as well, so make those standard patches instead, folding the Config.kmk patches together. We should put some effort into testing llvm10 and working out why llvm breaks it, but fixing the build is more important at the moment. Q/A: * portlint (pre-existing issues; none in current patch) * testport (-CURRENT, amd64) * run tested by madpilot@ _______________________________________________ freebsd-emulation@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-emulation To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-emulation-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
