[LLVMdev] Building LLVM under Mingw. Part I: tools-only

Hello, Everyone.

Now I have some spare time and I've decided to build LLVM on Mingw.
I've grab the latest 1.7 release (not CVS snapshot). Here are some
issues fixed during the build. Now I'm preparing gcc build. So, I
think, there will some other "parts"

1. Prerequisites

1.1 GCC 3.4.5 from mingw.org site.
$ gcc --version
gcc.exe (GCC) 3.4.5 (mingw special)
Copyright (C) 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

1.2. Binutils 2.16.91 20060119 from mingw.org site.
$ ld --version
GNU ld version 2.16.91 20060119

1.3. GNU Make 3.79.1 taken from msys distribution.

$ make --version
GNU Make version 3.79.1, by Richard Stallman and Roland McGrath.
Built for i686-pc-msys
Copyright (C) 1988, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 2000

PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Report bugs to <bug-make at gnu.org>.

1.4. Bison 1.875 from GNUWin32 project

$ bison --version
bison (GNU Bison) 1.875

1.5 Flex 2.5.4 from GNUWin32 project.


2. Patching.

2.1. Libraries
Add "LIBS+= -lpsapi -limagehlp" to each makefile (AFTER
Makefile.common inclusion) building some tool (burg, tablegen, ll*),
since gcc doesn't support vcpp style #pragma's of form:
 #pragma comment(lib, "dbghelp.lib")

2.2 CopyFile
Patch lib/System/Win32/Path.inc in such way, that declaration of
CopyFile will look like:

void
CopyFile(const sys::Path &Dest, const sys::Path &Src) {

2.3 X86 stuff
Patch lib/Target/X86/X86SubTarget.cpp & X86JITInfo.cpp in such way:

X86SubTarget.cpp:
#if defined(__CYGWIN__) || defined(__MINGW32__)
    TargetType = isCygwin;
#elif defined(__APPLE__)
    TargetType = isDarwin;
#elif defined(_WIN32)
    TargetType = isWindows;
#endif

X86JITInfo.cpp:
#if defined(__CYGWIN__) || defined(__APPLE__) || defined(__MINGW32__)
    ".globl _X86CompilationCallback\n"
  "_X86CompilationCallback:\n"
#else
...
#if defined(__CYGWIN__) || defined(__APPLE__) || defined(__MINGW32__)
    "call _X86CompilationCallback2\n"
#else

2.4 alarm()'s in Sparc backend

Remove from lib/Target/SparcV9/ModuloScheduling/ModuloScheduling.cpp
all calls to alarm().

3. That's all

This should be enough to configure and build LLVM in tools-only mode.
Unfortunately, ld crashed while building llc, I'm currently
investigating this problem. Also, I'm working on building gcc backend.
The results will follow.

Bison 1.875 is known to have problems building LLVM.  Please upgrade to 
a newer version (at least 1.875d).  The current version is 2.1.

>   I'd fix this, but I don't touch Unix build stuff :)  I'll let Reid 
handle this one.  I suspect he'll prefer to fix Makefile.common rather 
than each individual makefile.  And dbghelp.lib really ought to be 
used.  imagehlp is very, very obsolete and vanishes on 64-bit Windows.  
Yes, I know mingw doesn't support dbghelp.  I can still rant about it

Hi,

The Cygwin LLVM release (OPTIMIZED_ENABLED) version triggers a bug in LD 
(BFD binutils) this may well be common to MinGW as well.
