stm8 binutils-gdb / Discussion / General Discussion: compilation on ubuntu

Benno - 2019-09-18

The compilation of stm8-binutils is not working for me on ubuntu.
The patching and configuring step seem to work just fine, but the compilation with make fails.
I tried it with different gcc versions (4.8 and 7).
The compilation process with gcc7 runs considerably longer but eventually fails too (but with
a different error).
The error I obtain with gcc7: ser-tcp.c:64:13: error: conflicting declaration ‘typedef int socklen_t’

  What is the rest of the error message saying?

Yes, but i could not make much sense of it. It seems that configure assumes a different compiler version?

  Stupid question but did you "make distclean" after changing compiler?

I removed the entire directory and run ran patch_binutils.sh and configure_binutils.sh again before i called make with another compiler

Update: I have the exact same problem on a centos machine (gcc 7.2)

  Just compiled everything in ubutu gcc 5.4.0 without any problems.
  
  I am not sure why compilation fails for you. Looking in /usr/include/unistd.h:
  
  #if defined __USE_MISC || defined __USE_XOPEN # ifndef __socklen_t_defined typedef __socklen_t socklen_t; # define __socklen_t_defined # endif #endif
  
  and __USE_MISC is defined in /usr/include/features.h:
  
  #if defined _DEFAULT_SOURCE # define __USE_MISC 1 #endif
  
  The `-ansi' switch to the GNU C compiler, and standards conformance options such as `-std=c99', define __STRICT_ANSI__. If none of these are defined, or if _DEFAULT_SOURCE is defined, the default is to have _POSIX_SOURCE set to one and _POSIX_C_SOURCE set to 200809L, as well as enabling miscellaneous functions from BSD and SVID. If more than one of these are defined, they accumulate. For example __STRICT_ANSI__, _POSIX_SOURCE and _POSIX_C_SOURCE together give you ISO C, 1003.1, and 1003.2, but nothing else.
  
  I think it could have something to do with what C++ standard is used. Check what standard your compiler is using or try supply CXX="g++ -std=gnu+11" to configure in "configure_binutils.sh"

Neither specifiying CXX="g++ -std=gnu++1" nor using gcc-5-5 helped

  I am out of ideas. You must have something funky going on with your build environment.
  
  Could you post the command line for the failing ser-tcp.c source e.i "g++ .... ser-tcp.c" ?

I manually commented the typdef of socklen_t in the ser-tcp.c file which fixed this error but then the next error popped up

FYI I just recompiled everyting with gcc (Ubuntu 7.4.0-1ubuntu1~18.04.1) 7.4.0 without any problems.

I gave it another try today. Somehow I had prevent my shell from reading my bashrc when compiling. After that it worked.

upd: sorry for disturb. Everything works. I just though it was incomplete or broken istallation due to such log :-)

Hi, @arehnman, I faild to compile the latest version of stm8-binutils-gdb (stm8-binutils-gdb-sources-2020-03-22) on Ubuntu 18 (gcc version 7.5.0 (Ubuntu 7.5.0-3ubuntu1~18.04) ) . I tried it on 2 macines with Ubuntu version I mentioned about and on a machine with Xubuntu with gcc 5.4.
The tail of the make step log:

config.status: creating po/Makefile.in config.status: executing depfiles commands config.status: executing libtool commands config.status: executing default-1 commands config.status: executing bfd_stdint.h commands config.status: executing default commands make[3]: Nothing to be done for 'info'. make[3]: Leaving directory '/home/m/stm8-binutils-gdb-sources/binutils-2.30/bfd/po' make[3]: Entering directory '/home/m/stm8-binutils-gdb-sources/binutils-2.30/bfd' make[3]: Nothing to be done for 'info-am'. make[3]: Leaving directory '/home/m/stm8-binutils-gdb-sources/binutils-2.30/bfd' Makefile:1754: recipe for target 'info-recursive' failed make[2]: *** [info-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/m/stm8-binutils-gdb-sources/binutils-2.30/bfd' Makefile:2691: recipe for target 'all-bfd' failed make[1]: *** [all-bfd] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/m/stm8-binutils-gdb-sources/binutils-2.30' Makefile:848: recipe for target 'all' failed make: *** [all] Error 2

The intallation of the following didn't help:

$ sudo apt install libisl-0.18-dev # Seems it's not needed $ sudo apt install texinfo $ sudo apt install binutils-dev $ sudo apt install libbfd-dev # Already installed

I also tried the previous versions and the compilation failed as well, but with slightly different log.
What direction should I move to succeed?
Thank you!

  Was the problem resolved and what was the issue?

    Yes, the problem was resolved (there was no a problem actually). I considered that the log of make I posted above is an error, but it's actually not.

      Ok, I don't think make should fail though....

I don't like seeing errors during make either.
I'm running Ubuntu 20.04 and to get the package to complile without errors, I had to:

sudo apt install libncursesw5-dev sudo apt install texinfo

I haven't run make install yet or actually tried to run anything so wish me luck!
