Description Sergei Trofimovich (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2020-01-18 22:40:36 UTC
gcc-10 and above flipped a default from -fcommon to -fno-common: https://gcc.gnu.org/PR85678

A few packages will need to adapt. Usually all it takes is to add a few 'extern' declarations and move definitions from header files to modules.

More details are at https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Gcc_10_porting_notes/fno_common
Comment 1 Martin Väth 2020-01-19 14:15:04 UTC
A rather exhaustive list of failing packages is here:

To ease fixing them I suggest filing upstream bugs (and/or gentoo downstream bugs) for packages instead of just linking them here.
Comment 3 Sergei Trofimovich (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2020-01-19 20:19:59 UTC
SUSE also found a bunch of failures: https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1160244

Comment 5 Shane Peelar 2020-05-07 18:08:21 UTC
FYI: GentooLTO also has a list of `-fno-common` workarounds too: 

https://github.com/InBetweenNames/gentooLTO/blob/05965d113f5da37fc5428de658fb3c25016bf3c9/sys-config/ltoize/files/package.cflags/ltoworkarounds.conf#L272

A few users in the overlay have been running `-fno-common` for quite some time now.

Please report new individual package failures as blockers to this bug.

Will do.
Comment 8 Shane Peelar 2020-05-10 22:59:48 UTC
It looks like I have about 41 packages to report with `-fcommon` related issues -- is there a convenient way to create bugs for these or will I have to manually enter each individual one?  They're straight from GentooLTO, and they have not been reported here yet.

Bugs like bug #722286 are not very useful without 'emerge --info' and 'build.log'.

New bugs are easy to create programmatically. An example of pre-filled bugs is https://bugs.gentoo.org/708912#c1. But it's a topic outside of this bug.

FYI: even more bugs in conjunction with "-flto". It affect conftest in libtool configure (global sys-devel/libtool and packaged separately), so variable global_symbol_pipe (in libtool) will be empty.

PS Yes, I know - LTO is not mainstream-supported...

PPS To workaround "-fno-common -flto" problem - simple predefine in make.conf:


lt_cv_sys_global_symbol_pipe='sed -n -e '\''s/^.*[       ]\([ABCDGIRSTW][ABCDGIRSTW]*\)[         ][      ]*\([_A-Za-z][_A-Za-z0-9]*\)$/\1 \2 \2/p'\'' | sed '\''/ __gnu_lto/d'\'''

but better (to avoid copy-paste issues) to take it from here:

That is probably a bug #708340. I suggest continuing it there.
