Bug 516276 – sys-devel/gcc-3.4.6-r2 - .../gcc-3.4.6/gcc/unwind-dw2.c: In function `uw_frame_state_for': .../work/gcc-3.4.6/gcc/unwind-dw2.c:1031: error: field `info' has incomplete type

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Daniel Santos 2014-07-04 04:29:41 UTC]

This problem effects multiple older versions of gcc, this bug is specifically for gcc-3.4.6-r2. Unfortunately, for as long as the Linux kernel supports this compiler, I must have a working copy at all times.

A promiscuous cure seems to be:

cd ${PORTAGE_TMPDIR}/sys-devel/gcc-<version>/work
sed -i 's/struct siginfo/siginfo_t/g;' $(grep -r 'struct siginfo' .|awk -F: '{print $1}')

[Comment 1 Daniel Santos 2014-07-04 04:32:33 UTC]

Created attachment 380154 [details, diff]
proposed fix, only tested on x86_64

This is just the patch for the sources, still needs changes to ebuild to run it.

[Comment 2 Daniel Santos 2014-07-04 08:10:32 UTC]

Per xiaomiao, I'm putting info for all affected gcc versions in this bug report. The same sed/grep/awk script fixes 4.0.4 and 4.1.2. Also, I seem to have left out some other important information. I'm currently using glibc 2.17, but this problem first appeared on December 29th, 2013 following an upgrade from glibc 2.15 ==> 2.16 (which I actually did on November 28th). So my guess is that this patch need only be applied if using glibc 2.16 or later. I saw some info on the web indicating that this occurs with some versions of ulibc as well.

No, don't do that.

good, because I feel lazy :)

This sed/grep/awk script did work for 3.4.6, 4.0.4, 4.1.2, 4.2.4-r1, 4.3.6-r1 and 4.4.7 (all which had the problem). Versions 4.5 and on are currently breaking on some tests (the result of my amd64 vs ~amd64, abi_x64_32 problems), so I'm guessing that the rest are ok.

So do you guys want a separate bug report for each version affected?

[Comment 6 Daniel Santos 2014-07-10 14:41:59 UTC]

So before I create 4 more bug reports, do you guys want them all in this report or not?  I've already opened bug #516282 for gcc-4.0.4, but still need 4.1.2, 4.2.4-r1, 4.3.6-r1 and 4.4.7. Here is the output from each (differs slightly):

The patch you've posted is already in the patchset for every version you mentioned.  See bug #424970.

I'm glad that you've found a previous report for the same problem, but either this bug cannot be closed or the other bug must be re-opened, because it is current *broken* on every version that I mentioned. If it is in the patchset, then the problem is that the patches aren't being applied for some reason.

[Comment 10 Daniel Santos 2014-07-11 14:10:33 UTC]

So I'm guessing that they were removed by mistake from the tree, so I am reopening.

# grep -ri siginfo .
./ChangeLog:  Fix building with newer glibc and siginfo changes #427220 by Martin Jansa.

No patches in the tree (did esync yesterday). Can you kindly verify this and confirm?

[Comment 11 Daniel Santos 2014-07-11 14:57:08 UTC]
