Subject: Re: [Buildroot] [PATCH 1/2] package/samba4: fix build on m68k
Date: Fri, 17 Jul 2026 17:47:29 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260717154729.191887-1-thomas.perale@mind.be> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260704085239.2901837-1-bernd@kuhls.net>
In reply of:
> samba4 uses very big switch statements, which causes the build to fail
> on m68k, because the offsets there are only 16-bit.
>
> We fix that by using -mlong-jump-table-offsets on m68k to use 32-bit
> offsets for switch statements, but this is only available starting with
> gcc 7 [0] [1].

> Only one package selects samba4, mpd, but it already depends on gcc
> >= 12. As such, we do not need to propagate that new dependency.
