[PATCH] devel/avr-gcc-devel fails to build with -march in CFLAGS
Last modified: 2006-10-10 11:30:20 UTC
Makefile in gcc-4.1.0 unconditionally adds host compiler flags
containing in CFLAGS variable to CFLAGS_FOR_TARGET.
If CFLAGS contains -march=... option, building of libgcc modules
fails with the following error message:
cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-march=pentiumpro"
Fix: add the following patch to devel/avr-gcc-devel/files
How-To-Repeat: echo CPUTYPE=i686 >>/etc/make.conf
cd /usr/ports/devel/avr-gcc-devel && make

I'm somewhat reluctant to add hacks like this as local patches.
I think it's basically a pilot error to first set CPU-specific
options in /etc/make.conf's CFLAGS, and then expect any kind of
cross-compilation still to work.
OTOH, it could be considered a general flaw in GCC's cross-compilation
setup, but then, I'd like to see it accompanied by a GCC bug report.
I'm don't think filtering -mcpu and -march is sufficient, as there
could be any number of other options that are incompatible with the
target CPU. At least, all -m options need to be filtered.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
Another possible solution would be to set
in the devel/avr-gcc/Makefile, thus overriding all of the CFLAGS
specified in the environment.

OK, I bite. Implement the patch from PR ports/96407, to avoid the
There's a GCC bug open for this:
so at least, the issue is being dealt with in its origin.

There's a GCC bug report for this:
so at least it is a known issue that is being dealt with.
I eventually came to like the patch better than Brix' idea about
blanking CFLAGS entirely, as that would leave us potentially with a
non-optimized compiler which can cause a huge performance penalty in
particular on RISC machines.
