I use the cross-addr2line tool all the time, and objdump and other such tools. I have many different sandboxes with different arch builds of different freebsd versions, and each one is a self-contained little development world that includes the cross tools that are known to work with that source base. I don't think there's a single addr2line binary I can install that will work with every object on the system. If the time spent building these things is bothering people, maybe we need a WITH_CROSS_BINUTILS knob or something? -- Ian ___ svn-src-head@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-head To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-head-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

There is, in fact - ELF Tool Chain's addr2line will work regardless of the object's architecture. However, I'm happy enough to revert this change (and add a comment about non-build use cases) if you like. ___ svn-src-head@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-head To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-head-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Do you mean the new one you're working on? Because that doesn't seem to be true of the one installed on my 10-stable system right now. If it is true of the new one, that's a much better solution, and I can get by until it's ready for prime time, I think. -- Ian ___ svn-src-head@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-head To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-head-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

It's now the default in HEAD (along with nm, strings, size, etc.). Bringing this to stable/10 would be tricky because it depends on the new libdwarf in 11 that's not backwards compatible. For that reason perhaps I ought to just leave them in the cross-tools stage, until we can assume developers are generally cross building from an 11.x host. ___ svn-src-head@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-head To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-head-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

There’s little harm in leaving it in, and some harm in taking it out… The time to build this stuff is tiny...
