[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 00/15] Add gcc 9.1

[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 00/15] Add gcc 9.1

[Romain Naour]

Before adding gcc 9.1 [1] to Buildroot, add some fixes for issues discovered
by toolchain-builder [2] that are trigged by this new compiler version.
(disable powerpc Werror, uClibc-ng asm sparc and ARC glibc).

Then add gcc 9.1 for internal and extenal toolchain backend and switch gcc 8.x
as default compiler.

Thanks to Yann E. MORIN for providing a patch series that add new ARM cores
added by gcc 9.1.

Each new ARM core has been build tested for aarch64:
https://gitlab.com/kubu93/buildroot/pipelines/60318953

Finally, enable the new ork1 (openrisc) that will replace in the following
series the old gcc fork (gcc 5.x).

[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 01/15] package/glibc/arc: fix build issue with gcc-9.1

[Romain Naour]

Backport from upstream [1] to fix build issue with glibc arc-2018.09-release
(based on glibc 2.28) and gcc 9.1 [2]]

Using glibc arc-2.29-2019.02.08 or the upcoming arc-2019.03 release include
this patch.

The upstream patch [1] modify mostly x86_64 files, but also two generic headers
where the new __attribute_copy__() macro is defined *and* used to complement
existing attribute-related macros.

So, it is not much the x86_64 part we're interested in, but the generic
two headers, which changes percolate to the various functions via the
various attribute macros...

+Subject: [PATCH] Add support for GCC 9 attribute copy.
+
+GCC 9 has gained an enhancement to help detect attribute mismatches
+between alias declarations and their targets.  It consists of a new
+warning, -Wattribute-alias, an enhancement to an existing warning,
+-Wmissing-attributes, and a new attribute called copy.
+
+The purpose of the warnings is to help identify either possible bugs
+(an alias declared with more restrictive attributes than its target
+promises) or optimization or diagnostic opportunities (an alias target
+missing some attributes that it could be declared with that might
+benefit analysis and code generation).  The purpose of the new
+attribute is to easily apply (almost) the same set of attributes
+to one declaration as those already present on another.
+
+As expected (and intended) the enhancement triggers warnings for
+many alias declarations in Glibc code.  This change, tested on
+x86_64-linux, avoids all instances of the new warnings by making
+use of the attribute where appropriate.  To fully benefit from
+the enhancement Glibc will need to be compiled with
+ -Wattribute-alias=2 and remaining warnings reviewed and dealt with
+(there are a couple of thousand but most should be straightforward
+to deal with).
+
+ChangeLog:
+
+	* include/libc-symbols.h (__attribute_copy__): Define macro unless
+	it's already defined.
+	(_strong_alias): Use __attribute_copy__.
+	(_weak_alias,  __hidden_ver1,  __hidden_nolink2): Same.
+	* misc/sys/cdefs.h (__attribute_copy__): New macro.
+	* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/memchr.c (memchr): Use __attribute_copy__.

[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 02/15] linux: disable Werror for powerpc kernels

[Romain Naour]

From patch [1] included in kernel >= 5.0:
"The upcoming GCC 9 release extends the -Wmissing-attributes warnings
(enabled by -Wall) to C and aliases: it warns when particular function
attributes are missing in the aliases but not in their target.

In particular, it triggers for all the init/cleanup_module
aliases in the kernel (defined by the module_init/exit macros),
ending up being very noisy.

These aliases point to the __init/__exit functions of a module,
which are defined as __cold (among other attributes). However,
the aliases themselves do not have the __cold attribute.

Since the compiler behaves differently when compiling a __cold
function as well as when compiling paths leading to calls
to __cold functions, the warning is trying to point out
the possibly-forgotten attribute in the alias."

Werror is set by default while building ppc kernel [2], but
some warning can be introduced while building current kernel with
newer compiler (for example building kernel 4.19 with gcc 9.1).

For the same reason why we remove Werror in packages's compiler
flags. Building with Werror is not bulletproof when we start
using a newer compiler that introduce new warnings.
This is the case here.

Also this option is a bit strange since it's specific to ppc kernels:
"The intention is to make it harder for people to inadvertantly
introduce warnings in the arch/powerpc code."
Other kernel developers on other arch may be interested by a
similar/more generic option.

So, It's clearly intended for kernel developers.

Instead of backporting this patch [1] to kernel 4.19, select
unconditionally the Kconfig option CONFIG_PPC_DISABLE_WERROR
that allow to disable Werror.

 Since buildroot is *also* intended for kernel developers, I don't think this is
a good idea.

 In fact, I don't like us forcing any options on the user. All this overriding
of .config options in linux.mk (and busybox.mk as well) is IMO confusing and
limiting user's freedom. So I don't like it if .config overrides get added.

 Therefore, I prefer your v1 solution of just fixing the affected defconfigs.

 Arnout

As I said on IRC, I disagree with this reasonning. Buildroot may *also*
be used by package developpers, so by your reasoning, we should never
remove -Werror from packages.

Yes, yes, I get it that the kernel is special, but still, see below...

How is that different, for *this* case of -Werror, from passing
--disable-werror (or simmilar) like we do in a bunch of packages?

Do you suggest that instead of setting a .config option, we introduce a
post-patch hook that removes -Werror from the kernel's Makefile instead?

Also, do you argue that we should remove all our $(call KCONFIG_SET_OPT,...)
that we have "to make things just work and not puzzle the user"?

Yann E. MORIN.

[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 03/15] [RFC] package/uclibc: remove asm constraint

[Romain Naour]

uClibc-ng don't build with gcc 9.1 [1] due to a new check that
"catch illegal asm constraint usage" [2].

gcc 9.1 print this error:
"invalid hard register usage between earlyclobber operand and input operand"

The asm constraint is present in uClibc since it support sparc (back in 2002)[3].

Note: There is no such constraint is Glibc counterpart code [4].

I did not fully analyze the asm code to understand why the constraint is present.
I lightly tested using qemu_sparc_ss10_defconfig.
Any help is welcome :)

[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 08/15] package/gcc: switch to gcc 8.x as the default

[Romain Naour]

Even if gcc 7 is still maintained for some time (gcc 7.5 is pending),
switch to gcc 8.x since it has been released since 2018-05-02 and
gcc 9.x is available since 2019-05-03.

We have been having toolchains in the autobuilders with gcc
8.x for a while, so the vast majority of the problems should have
already been solved.

[Romain Naour]

From: "Yann E. MORIN" <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>

In gcc-9, some cores from the ThunderX familly have been renamed to
their marketting names, i.e. OcteonTX. Subsequently, new core names
have been added to gcc, with the old names still being around.

Update the prompts with the new names as alternative to the existing
names. We still keep the kconfig options as-is, so that we do not need
to add legacy handling.

However, since there is no guarantee for how long gcc will retain
compatibility for the older names, we readily switch over to using the
new names when using a gcc 9-or-later, but keep using the older names
with gcc older than 9.

The ordering of the 'default' clauses in kconfig is important, with the
first default which conditions is satisfied, to be used, so we just add
the new core names under a more liberal condition than the older names.

[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 13/15] arch/arm: add two new cortex-based armv8.2a cores

[Romain Naour]

From: "Yann E. MORIN" <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>

The cortex-a76 implements the full amrv8.2a extensions, and some
optional extensions from the armv8.3a, armv8.4a, and armv8.5a sets,
but none of their mandatory extensions, which means that it does not
qualify for better than an armv8.2a:
    https://developer.arm.com/products/processors/cortex-a/cortex-a76
    http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.100798_0301_00_en/giq1479805174793.html
    http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.100798_0301_00_en/fjv1477559794375.html

Also, gcc fits it in the armv8.2a category, too:
    https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=blob;f=gcc/config/aarch64/aarch64-cores.def;h=67ce42fb8aacd4c246295f32151a03b1f318ae44;hb=HEAD#l97

v2: add neoverse-e1 (Yann)
    reorder alphabetically after renaming ares to neoverse-n1.

Note: The Neoverse E1 CPU needs at least binutils 2.32 to support Speculative Store
Bypass Safe instruction (SSBS) which is part of ARMv8.5-A architecture extensions.
Postpone the support for this new ARM core.
