Re: [fpc-devel] OpenBSD compiler
Building a snapshot now works fine, shared linking and IDE inclusive.

I did a run last night and it stumbled on missing "bsd" unit, which holds the kqueue implementation that lnet needs. I quickchecked headers, and it seems to be mostly there in openbsd (give or take two constants) so I enabled it. However the next run failed on an error in a script, so I don't know where it gets stuck now. I'll be home after noon, working at home the rest of the day, and then do some more runs. ___ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel

It took me a long time to understand the problem, but I think I found it now: OpenBSD ld seems to do nonsense if you do not explicitly give him a dynamic loader it inserted /usr/lib/libc.so.1 as the dynamic loader... Adding an explicit -FL/usr/libexec/ld.so seems to allow at least tests/test/cg/tprinf to run successfully.

I'm not dissing your fexpand :-) The unix implementation of getdir can actually enumerate directories. So the problem is in readdir, but on *nix ports the crash will be in expandfilename because getdir stresses readdir hard, and in the compiler that happens before the first findfirst. The problem of readdir is simply that it is one of the few core functionalities with a sizable userland part, and the implementations can be fairly different across OSes. (with even two choices for the kernel call used) I ran into it already with the original FreeBSD port (done just before 1.0, merged in slightly after 1.0) This because in the original Linux port, readdir WAS a system call. Another such traditional issue is the handling of seek and truncate, because they are syscalls with 64-bit types. Some OSes that call syscalls with values in registers still call them as if they were on the stack, and insert extra zero parameters to "align", and some don't, with variations per architecture. ___ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel

Re: [fpc-devel] OpenBSD compiler
In our previous episode, Marco van de Voort said: Some status update after some play yesterday evening: 1. The commit from Pierre for the exit syscall seems to work. Exe's don't crash anymore. 2. Some other minor fixes for stat record (as of yet uncommitted, as I still have to check the many ifdefs introduced. I think that parts of bsd/ostypes.inc must move to OS specific includes in time, specially if the number of targets rises. Darwin is also moving in slightly incompatible ways, since I see some arm specific darwin ifdefs there. 3. fixed a bug in the compilers parameter processing that seems to be triggered more in OpenBSD (r19394) 4. The next big crash is, as usual for a new port, in fexpand/expandfilename/readdir. netbsd/openbsd seem to only support getdirentries, not getdents (if I understood correctly getdirentries is more BSD tradition, getdents is more SysV). Also the telldir functionality might be slightly different among BSDs. Probably the relevant library code needs to translated. Maybe is checking the libc implementation against the readdir implementation of 1.0.x (readdir.inc) enough. That's on the menu for me tonight. 5. The problems with cprt0.as were relatively mild, just adding declarations for the relevant variables and adding a _ to the fpucw reference. The result wouldn't link dynamically though, despite OpenBSD having a fairly recent linker for once (2.15, while old, is the same as FreeBSD uses, so shouldn't be a problem for normal operation). Or at least ldd would crash on the result. ___ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel

In our previous episode, Pierre Free Pascal said: > I tried to get i386-openbsd port up to date, I had a openbsd 4.8 VM lying around, so I tried my usual cross bootstrap routine (I'm lazy, you don't need crossbinutils on BSD systems since they can run the linux bootstrap compiler) What I did (preparation): 0. checked out the repo on the openbsd VM 1. compiled a linux compiler on linux with -dCMEM, this so that the binary has a decent ELF "ident" section 2. Copy it over to the openbsd VM. chmod +x 3. ran sysctl kern.emul.linux=1 as root to enable linux emulation 4. ran "pkg_add fedora_base" to install basic userland 5. ran "pkg_add gmake" to install GNU make 6. modified rtl/openbsd/makefile to also compile cmem 7. ran gmake PP=~/linux-bootstrap-with-cmem-ppc386 OS_TARGET=openbsd BINUTILSPREFIX="" OPT=-gl in rtl/openbsd to build rtl First I tried to build the compiler straight: gmake all PP=~/linux-bootstrap-with-cmem-ppc386 OS_TARGET=openbsd RTL=/fpc/fpc/rtl/units/i386-openbsd OPT="-gl" BINUTILSPREFIX="" this yields a compiler that gives an exception in readdir (if I try to compile) or options.readparameters with no parameters. If I run with -i or -h, the usual output appears with a crash in SYSTEM_REMOVE_FIXED_CHUNKS following it, which I assume is a heapmanager function calling munmap? I then tried to build with CMEM (same line as above but with -dCMEM added to OPT) to work around potential memory allocation problems, but that didn't link on a bunch of operating_system_* missing symbols (envp/argv/argc), so I assume its startup code wasn't fixed. ___ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel

RE: [fpc-devel] OpenBSD compiler
I tried to get i386-openbsd port up to date, using mingw cross Binutils that I compiled myself using openbsd sources. Should I add those to ftp? But I am stuck because I have a 64-bit OpenBSD virtual machine (and no room to add a i386 version on my machine) but all cross-compiled executables. Is it possible to install an openbsd equivalent of lib32? How do you compile i386 openbsd executables using GCC on a amd64 machine?

There is none that is usable for current trunk, you have to cross- compile. Jonas___ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
