[PATCH] Add -fcommon to BUILD_CFLAGS to a number of recipes

[PATCH] Add -fcommon to BUILD_CFLAGS to a number of recipes

[daniel]

When building on a gcc 10 enabled host distribution (such as Fedora 32),
a number of recipies need explicit treatment to enable '-fcommon' in
BUILD_CFLAGS. There might be more of those fixes needed.

Commit 46827b8616 ("recipes: Use -fcommon explicitly") already addressed
that for some places, but tweaking CFLAGS doesn't seem to suffice.

If there is a better way of doing this, please let me know. I needed
this patch to get my setup working again to F32.

Thanks for this, its definitely something we need to fid.

The work in the previous patch was fixing gcc 10 target builds, not
host. Your patch changes CFLAGS to BUILD_CFLAGS in places which means
when we upgrade to gcc 10 things will break.

Basically:

CFLAGS should cover build and target
TARGET_CFLAGS should cover target builds (gcc cross as gcc 10)
BUILD_CFLAGS should cover host tools (gcc 10 on the host)

so the correct place should be CFLAGS which should cover target and
build (host).

Its possible that some recipes build native and target components in
which case they might use CFLAGS and BUILD_CFLAGS. Based on what you
say in the commit message, there might be a bug and we might be missing
injecting CFLAGS into BUILD_CFLAGS.

I think this is going to need a little more investigation to get it
right.

Cheers,

Richard

Hi Richard,

Thanks a lot for checking!

Ah, I wasn't aware that cross-compilation is ready for gcc 10 yet. Okay,
that makes sense.

I assumed that, yes, but at least for the recipes I addressed in my
patch, that doesn't cut it.

That said, there is also another patch needed for syslinux that doesn't
seem to allow injecting CFLAGS externally.

Alright. I'm happy to respin my patch or test alternative approaches.
After all, gcc 10 will have more exposure very soon with more
distributions are picking it up as default compiler.

Adding -fcommon to CFLAGS or BUILD_CFLAGS globally could interact
badly with components which are already setting -fno-common via their
own internal CFLAGS. It's safer to fix selectively on a per-recipe
basis.

These are not fixes, just workarounds.
Adding upstream fixes would be preferable to adding workarounds.

Yocto is upstream for pseudo, is there anything non-trivial required
for a proper fix?

The upstream fix is a trivial one-liner that should be backported instead:

For master per-recipe solutions would be the best option.
And for the target side this is all that is needed.

Per-recipe changes for dunfell oe-core and gazillion 3rd party 
dunfell layers are not a desirable solution.
