Could you explain what exactly Cavium Thunder II mentioned under Package Settings got to do with this bug? I feel rather confused right now. Regarding this problem, I've got no way of trying to reproduce it myself so I'll have to ask *you* to run some tests. Lets begin like this: - take the files: archtest.c and platform.h from the flashrom tarball; - on the affected host, run gcc -E archtest.c 2>/dev/null | grep -v '^\#' | grep '"' | cut -f 2 -d'"' What do you get? I have access to two different arm64 systems. sys-apps/flashrom-1.2-r2 builds on one, the 96 core Cavium Thunder, which is how i had it on the Raspberry Pi4. My workflow is build there, push to a binhost and install on the Pi from the binhost. That's how I got sys-apps/flashrom-1.2-r2 installed on the Pi even though it won't build there. My attempt to build sys-apps/flashrom-1.2-r2 on the Pi4 was triggered by a post on the forums. The mention of the Cavium Thunder was to explain that a piece of the requested output for bug reports, namely the sys-apps/flashrom-1.2-r2::gentoo was built with the following: ... was not relevant. Pi4_~arm64 ~ # emerge sys-apps/flashrom -1 Let it fail ... cd /var/tmp/portage/sys-apps/flashrom-1.2-r2/work/flashrom-v1.2 Your test produces ... Pi4_~arm64 /var/tmp/portage/sys-apps/flashrom-1.2-r2/work/flashrom-v1.2 # gcc -E archtest.c 2>/dev/null | grep -v '^\#' | grep '"' | cut -f 2 -d'"' Use sigaction with SA_RESTART instead arm To add to my confusion sys-apps/flashrom-1.2-r2 no longer builds on the Cavium. It produces the same failure and same test output as above. ... but it has built as its in the binary packages. (In reply to Roy Bamford from comment #2) > Use sigaction with SA_RESTART instead This line should very much not be there. Could you find out where exactly it comes from? It's probably part of the 'gcc -E' output but better to make sure. Oh, and if I see correctly that you have used gcc-10 try this test with gcc-9 as well. For the record, the message itself comes from glibc-2.32 - but we still have to identify what bit of the flashrom build chain tries to use the deprecated signal (pretty sure it's not anything in flashrom itself, given archtest is not even compiled), or why the problem appears to be arm64-specific.

Could you give 1.2-r3 a go? Mind you, you'll have to unmask it. Not really fixed but since meson-based sys-apps/flashrom-1.2-r3 seems to be finally usable, I do not think we have to mess with the Makefile any more. sys-apps/flashrom-1.2-r3 builds on arm64 but the built system is inconsistent. See the warnings. Not yet run time tested on my Pi4 as the one in use is current. >>> Emerging (1 of 1) sys-apps/flashrom-1.2-r3::gentoo * flashrom-v1.2.tar.bz2 BLAKE2B SHA512 size ;-) ...
