[Xen-ia64-devel] [PATCH 0 of 2] partly fix cross-build of ioemu-remote

These two patches partly repair cross-building of ioemu-dir.
There''s still a problem where the translation layer is being
built, which doesn''t exist for ia64, so it bombs out eventually.

The first patch applies to xen-unstable.hg, second patch applies
to the ioemu git tree.

Thanks,
Aron

[Xen-devel] [PATCH 1 of 2] pass IOEMU_CONFIGURE_CROSS to ioemu-remote/xen-setup

pass IOEMU_CONFIGURE_CROSS to ioemu-remote/xen-setup

Add --cpu to IOEMU_CONFIGURE_CROSS since otherwise qemu uses the
output of `uname -m` even for cross-building.  Pass
IOEMU_CONFIGURE_CROSS to xen-setup which passes it on to
ioemu/configure.

[Xen-ia64-devel] [PATCH 2 of 2] cross-build fixes in ioemu-remote

Partly fix cross-building in ioemu-remote:

- Don''t call install -s; it uses the host strip program which
  doesn''t understand cross-built binaries.  This same change was
  in the legacy ioemu dir.

- The ioemu version of cc-option doesn''t take $(CC) as the first
  argument, so all builds were getting -msse2 regardless of
  architecture.

I think this should be fixed by the build environment, or possibly
$(INSTALL), being arranged to not have this bug.  If $(INSTALL) -s
doesn''t work then this should be fixed.  Options include putting a
symlink to /bin/true on the path somewhere under the name `strip'', or
overriding INSTALL somehow to a more clever program.

I really don''t want to apply these Makefile changes.  That is the kind
of thing which makes merging painful.

Ian.

I have the same issue when cross-compiling some other projects.  I
wonder how install would be able to know which strip command it should
use.

Mmm, actually I think we don''t need that sse2 option any more: thanks
to dirty bit tracking, the sse2-optimized memcmp loop is gone. At least
-DUSE_SSE2 is not used anywhere.

Perhaps it should call STRIP if it exists, or perhaps the
cross-building setup should provide a `strip'' which will always DTRT
(perhaps by examining the file to decide which real strip to invoke).

I don''t think it''s necessary to provide one that will DTRT. 
The
compiler and linker don''t need that abstraction, and
"install" is
only called for stuff that will be installed on the target
system.

qemu seems to have the ability to set the install command using
configure.  Seems something like the following should work,
except that (1) i386-dm/hookstarget.mak uses $(INSTALL_PROG)
which seems to be defined outside of the ioemu tree, and (2) I''m
having enough trouble cross-building qemu that it''s hard to test.

Thanks,
Aron

This is a bit bizarre (not to mention the fact that the number of $''s
will depend on undocumented properties of the way qemu''s configure
inteprets that option).

Why not just set PATH directly and export it ?

But in general I think this is a reasonable approach.

Ian.

qemu''s configure uses quoting properly and applies no
interpretation on the way through.  The dollars are doubled once
for the Makefile where this is set, once for the inner Makefile
where it is used.

However... there is a Solaris hack in configure that will break
with any --install option other than a bare word.  And I agree
with you anyway, it''s a fragile approach.
> Why not just set PATH directly and export it ?
qemu expects "gcc" and the like to refer to the host toolchain.
I think we only want the PATH set for install.  Ideally there
would be an /usr/bin/ia64-linux-gnu-install to accompany the
others and use the right strip, but oh well.
> But in general I think this is a reasonable approach.

Re: [Xen-ia64-devel] Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH 2 of 2] cross-build fixes in ioemu-remote

Any responses to my last email and patch in this thread?

It would be nice to get cross-install (or something like it) in
the tree, along with fixing the build on ia64.

The build problem is that translate-all.c doesn''t build on ia64,
because there''s no support for instruction translation on ia64.
But it shouldn''t need to build translate-all.c at all for ioemu.
It didn''t on the legacy ioemu, and it''s only working right now
on
ia32 and x86_64 because those arches can build translate-all.c,
however unnecessary it is.

I took a quick look but I''m not quickly seeing how to change the
build to omit translate-all.c.  It would be great if somebody
more familiar with ioemu could take a glance.

Thanks,
Aron
