https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=244603 Bug ID: 244603 Summary: emulators/virtualbox-ose: use contemporary GCC instead of old llvm Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: vbox@FreeBSD.org Reporter: kevans@freebsd.org Assignee: vbox@FreeBSD.org Flags: maintainer-feedback?(vbox@FreeBSD.org) Created attachment 212150 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=212150&action=edit svn(1) diff against the ports tree The bug in PR 236616 resulted in virtualbox getting pinned to llvm7. This is less than ideal, and in-fact has been broken by improvements to machine/atomic.h on x86 that require a more modern compiler. Switch the build to use GCC9. USE_GCC= any is not sufficient, as GCC8 doesn't support the feature used by atomic.h. The patches that were previously applied if COMPILER_TYPE == clang are actually needed by GCC9 as well, so make those standard patches instead, folding the Config.kmk patches together. We should put some effort into testing llvm10 and working out why llvm breaks it, but fixing the build is more important at the moment. Q/A: * portlint (pre-existing issues; none in current patch) * testport (-CURRENT, amd64) * run tested by madpilot@ -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.help
