Bug ID: 116870
Summary: Corrupt executable created by GCC 14.2 on Windows
MinGW64 with mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain
Product: gcc
Version: 14.2.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: target
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: zmajeed at sbcglobal dot net
Target Milestone: ---
The debug build of duckdb on Windows MinGW64 produces a bad executable binary -
the release build works fine
DuckDB is large program at https://github.com/duckdb/duckdb - it's built in
MSYS2 MinGW64 on Windows - a debug build takes 25-30 minutes
Here's the resulting executable
----------------------------------------------------------
duckdb -version
-bash: duckdb: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error
ls -l duckdb
-rwxr-xr-x 3289334503 Sep 27 12:32 duckdb
file duckdb
duckdb: PE32+ executable (console) x86-64, for MS Windows, 21 sections
----------------------------------------------------------
I used readobjpe to get more info on the object - it shows section 14
.debug_info is invalid

----------------------------------------------------------
Here's duckdb docs on setting the Windows environment and building from source
- https://duckdb.org/docs/dev/building/build_instructions
Here are incantations for a debug build that are not documented
cmake -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DBUILD_EXTENSIONS="icu;parquet;json"
-B build -DENABLE_SANITIZER=FALSE -DENABLE_UBSAN=0 -DDISABLE_UNITY=1
cmake --build build --config Debug
The extra cmake options disable sanitizers that are not supported on Windows -
and disable cmake unity build to compile each source file separately
I tried a build with -gdwarf-4 but it also produced a bad executable
