F23 of course would be mass rebuilt if FESCO allows that,
and gcc.spec will automatically
switch to the c++11 std::string/std::list by default:
%if 0%{fedora} >= 21 && 0%{fedora} <= 22
--with-default-libstdcxx-abi=c++98 \
%endif

Hi! As FESCO denied mass rebuild of F22, I've adjusted https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/GCC5 the current rpms are built with --with-default-libstdcxx-abi=c++98 thus will not have standard conforming std::string/std::list by default, and I'd like to include gcc 5 in F22 anyway, just only what maintainers rebuild themselves after gcc 5 is included will be rebuilt with it.

Also note that there are 5.0.0-0.3.fc22 rpms right now:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/scratch/jakub/task_8642235/ (x86_64, i686)
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/scratch/jakub/task_8652335/ (armv7hl)

http://arm.koji.fedoraproject.org/scratch/jakub/task_2849711/ (aarch64)
These have the libgccjit{,-devel} packaged and gcc-gdb-plugin in better
shape than initially (and some important IPA fixes).

If there are bugs on the GCC side, they are just fixed. And the GCC GA release time isn't that much special time, it is time when the compiler is declared officially GA, but bugs are fixed before and after that time under completely the same policy, only regression bugfixes and documentation bugfixes are allowed starting with this Saturday onwards (last two months allowed general bugfixes too, so not only for things that regressed from earlier GCC releases). So from the Fedora POV, starting this Saturday only regression bugfixes will be allowed from now on until all Fedoras that will ship GCC 5 go EOL.

We are learning not to do the same mistakes all over again ☺ Now it could, I guess, be argued, that gcc has a long history of not having egregious failure modes we are learning from, and should be allowed to land later. OTOH there is also, IIRC, a history of having to do a second (full or partial) or even a third rebuild due to necessary gcc bug fixes, and landing the .0 version at the time we ship Beta is basically an explicit bet that there will be no such bug in .0, or we are slipping.

I think it's a valid request. Of course packagers can approximate, but to test for issues it would be best to have a simple way to build with gcc5 from the latest snapshot.

For a product with a rough schedule every 6 month and another quite time based every 12 months that is significant.

I think that's a bit of an over reaction, ultimately F-22 is due to branch on February 10th which is less than a month from now, the moment it branches gcc5 could land and people are then free to rebuild anything they like and gcc5 will be in the October release which is in all likely hood earlier than most other distros would adopt it anyway. > In the past, from my experience with both GCC distro maintainer and upstream > maintainer hats, shipping GCC early in Fedora helped both projects, > the early deployment in Fedora helped Fedora developers to use latest > langauge features (e.g. GCC 5 will finally have C++11 compliant std::string And how is that any different if it lands in f-23/rawhide in mid Feb? > or std::list, and feature completeness on the C++14 language side, see > changes.html for other stuff), help upstreams make the packages more > portable and enjoy better generated code (e.g. if you really want to make > PIE the default on x86_64, doing it with 4.9 is just a terribly bad idea > because only in 5 you can actually rely on PIE copy relocs and not get hit > as much by the PIE penalty as before), and for the GCC project lead to > wider testing and more bugfixes.

You mean for the C89 -> C11 default change, or for other changes in GCC 5? For the former, just build with -std=gnu11 with GCC 4.9 (or 4.8).

I think in many packages it means no changes needed at all, in others only very small changes, then of course there could be packages with helplessly obsolete codebases where -std=gnu89 will be probably the only possibility, at least short term. The C99->C11 step is a fairly minor, C89->C99 is bigger, but mainly for old packages that haven't ever seen -Wmissing-prototypes or similar options.

The difference this time is that FESCo decided to set a time-based schedule and adhere to it. The past two releases were set based on submitted Changes (with F21 being weird all around). Before that, the schedule was time-based but not strictly stuck to which led to lots of slips. Essentially, this is an attempt to _actually_ do a time-based schedule. That being said, FESCo is discussing the schedule again today because there's no room for a mass rebuild at all. It will be interesting to see if they actually stick to the plan and defer any Change that requires a mass rebuild. josh -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct

This How is that different from any other past Fedora releases (with the exception of F21)? If I remember well, at least starting with GCC 4.3 (March 2008) new GCC was deployed always in the spring release of Fedora, we've skipped 4.2 before that and as there was no spring release last year, GCC 4.9 was kind of an exception too. > time, schedule is more strict time based - what would it mean for you if > GCC 5 will miss F22? I'm not saying it's going to happen but it could be > option. Well, if we want to turn Fedora into a collection of obsolete software rather than trying to lead progress, we don't have to update anything. In the past, from my experience with both GCC distro maintainer and upstream maintainer hats, shipping GCC early in Fedora helped both projects, the early deployment in Fedora helped Fedora developers to use latest langauge features (e.g. GCC 5 will finally have C++11 compliant std::string or std::list, and feature completeness on the C++14 language side, see changes.html for other stuff), help upstreams make the packages more portable and enjoy better generated code (e.g. if you really want to make PIE the default on x86_64, doing it with 4.9 is just a terribly bad idea because only in 5 you can actually rely on PIE copy relocs and not get hit as much by the PIE penalty as before), and for the GCC project lead to wider testing and more bugfixes.

I was thinking exactly that, mass rebuild is scheduled for Jan 30th according to the schedule [1] with branching 10 days or so later. That is only two weeks away. With statements like "The release will happen probably in the first half of April" when we're already suppose to be be in freeze from end of March I think this would be better landing in F-23 right after we branch F-22 off on Feb 10th. Ultimately the above gives us no room to move and a roll back is another mass rebuild which will only cause more delay!

Do you have any estimate when it will be done? F22 schedule is/will be pretty tight. We already have problem scheduling mass rebuild and I expect GCC 5 would require as long as possible period to fix issues/build problems. This time, schedule is more strict time based - what would it mean for you if GCC 5 will miss F22? I'm not saying it's going to happen but it could be option.

How can we help to avoid > issues with s390, ppc or aarch64 like we saw with gcc 4.9 and s390? Depends on what kind of issues. If it is something detected during the mass rebuild (ICEs, failures in package testsuite), you can gain a few days/weeks by doing a test mass rebuild on the arches where you fear that (the plan was to do just x86-64 test mass rebuild ourselves); the question is if there is beefy enough hardware with spare cycles for that. If it is something that can be detected only when running the distro, then somebody would need to also install and try the test mass rebuilt distro, or just let stuff be fixed after mass rebuild. If there are GCC bugs that need to be resolved, the better bugreports the less time we need to spend on testcase reduction and analysis and the more we can spend on actual bug fixing.
