[PATCH v2] MinGW(-W64) cross-compilation

[PATCH v2] MinGW(-W64) cross-compilation

[Marat Radchenko]

Differences with v1:
 - Dropped "MINGW: compat/bswap.h: include stdint.h", it isn't needed after
   "MINGW: git-compat-util.h: use inttypes.h for printf macros"
 - Split "MINGW: config.mak.uname allow using CURL for non-msysGit builds"
   into "MINGW: config.mak.uname: allow using cURL for non-msysGit builds"
   and "MINGW: fix main() signature in http-fetch.c and remote-curl.c"
 - Reworded "MINGW: git-compat-util.h: use inttypes.h for printf macros"
 - Reworded "MINGW: config.mak.uname: reorganize MINGW settings"
 - Rewrote "MINGW: config.mak.uname: drop -DNOGDI" into
   "MINGW: compat/poll/poll.c: undef NOGDI"
 - Rewrote "MINGW: config.mak.uname: drop USE_NED_ALLOCATOR" into
   "compat/nedmalloc/malloc.c.h: fix compilation under MinGW-W64"
 - Reworded "Makefile: introduce CROSS_COMPILE variable"
 - Reordeder commits (1-5 are Acked by: Eric Faye-Lund <kusmabite@gmail.com>)

=====================================

This patch series fixes building on modern MinGW and (32bit only yet) MinGW-W64.

*Compilation* tested on:
 - MSVC (via WinGit environment)
 - msysGit environment
 - Linux cross-toolchain i686-pc-mingw32 (4.8.2) with mingw-runtime-3.20.2
 - Linux cross-toolchain i686-w64-mingw32 (4.8.2) with mingw64-runtime-3.1.0

Stuff still required to make Git build with x86_64 MinGW-W64 toolchain:

1. Drop -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T that was added in fa93bb to config.mak.uname
because time_t cannot be 32bit on x86_64. I haven't yet figured out what
should break if this define is removed (pointers are welcome) and why it was
added in the first place.

2. Stop passing --large-address-aware to linker. I wonder if it does anything
for 32bit MinGW builds.

3. Fix several places with mismatched pointer size casts.

Building it from Gentoo Linux:

MinGW:

  crossdev -t i686-pc-mingw32
  ARCH=x86 emerge-i686-pc-mingw32 -u dev-libs/libiconv sys-libs/zlib net-misc/curl sys-devel/gettext expat
  cd <git>
  make CROSS_COMPILE=i686-pc-mingw32- NO_OPENSSL=1 MINGW=1 CURLDIR=/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/usr

MinGW-W64 (32 bit):

  crossdev -t i686-w64-mingw32
  ARCH=x86 emerge-i686-w64-mingw32 -u dev-libs/libiconv sys-libs/zlib net-misc/curl sys-devel/gettext expat
  cd <git>
  make CROSS_COMPILE=i686-w64-mingw32- NO_OPENSSL=1 MINGW=1 CURLDIR=/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/usr

[PATCH 01/12] MINGW: compat/mingw.h: do not attempt to redefine lseek on mingw-w64

[Marat Radchenko]

Unlike MinGW, MinGW-W64 has lseek already properly defined in io.h.

[PATCH 06/12] MINGW: git-compat-util.h: use inttypes.h for printf macros

[Marat Radchenko]

All MinGW flavors have inttypes.h, so just include it.

However, we need to pass -D__USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO=0 to select
MSVCRT-compatible macro definitions on MinGW-W64:
http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/mingw-w64/wiki/gnu%20printf

As a side-effect, Git no longer builds with MSVC < 2010 due to
its lack of stdint.h but hopefully that is not a problem.

[PATCH 07/12] MINGW: config.mak.uname: reorganize MINGW settings

[Marat Radchenko]

HAVE_LIBCHARSET_H and NO_R_TO_GCC_LINKER are not specific to
msysGit, they're general MinGW settings.

Logic behind HAVE_LIBCHARSET_H: if user is on MinGW and has iconv,
we expect him to have libcharset.h. If user doesn't have iconv,
he has to explicitly say so via NO_ICONV=1.

Would you mind cross checking your changes with the msysgit fork? Fixing the same thing in a slightly different manner will just cause unnecessary conflicts (i.e. unnecessary work for the Git for Windows maintainers, as well as for you to come up with an alternate solution for something that's long been fixed).

While it's certainly a good point, I think this is *our* fault for not
upstreaming our changes, and the responsibility of cleaning up merges
should lie on our shoulders. We've diverged a lot. Sure, Dscho does a
great job making the divergence less painful, but IMO we should try to
reduce the delta as well.

For instance, I think the Unicode-support patches have proven
themselves by now and should go upstream. And there's probably a ton
of smaller free-standing clean-ups that could get the same treatment.

Just for historical context: we *did* try to get our changes upstream. In
fact, that was in large part everything Steffen Prohaska did while he was
maintaining Git for Windows. The going has been tough, though, to the
point that we were losing contributors who were not *quite* willing to put
up with such a detailed vetting process as the Git mailing list requires.

I have to admit that it is really, really hard even for someone like me,
who is used to the ways of the Git mailing list, because just a simple
thing like this curl-config issue already eats up several days of my Git
time budget.

So while I am sympathetic to the point of view that the Git for Windows
project failed to upstream its changes, I am *equally* sympathetic to the
point of view that it is an undue burden to have to go through the process
of getting patches included by upstream Git. I, for one, simply ain't got
the time, man.

Ciao,
Johannes

As a maintainer of another friendly fork of Git (or downstream), because
of very similar reaons, I symphathize.

It's something that has to be done though, otherwise the burden of
maintaining the friendly fork becomse unberable.

The trick is to only send the trivial patches upstream, and also to
constantly keep track of what is missing from upstream.

In oder to do this I've found invaluable to have an integration branch,
which I constnatly regenerate with `git reintegrate`[1]. IIRC you do a
similar kind of reintegration for each new release of msysgit, and it
appears to me that you do it by hand, which must be tedious.

I'm planning to write a blog post about the subject, but basically I
have a bunch of branches that are direct descendants of an upstream
version, I tell `git reintegrate` to merge them on top of certain
upstream release, the result must match *exactly* what my main master
branch has. The descendant branches I constanly keep rebasing, and the
main master branch always mergering and cherry-picking, never rebasing.

OK, I _did_ checked these, let's look at the two original commits:

- 0115ef83 is interesting, but not relevant to the warnings,
- 6949537a contains a fix for the const warning, plus it fixed a
  minor nit in the other commit.

Long been fixed by a quick and dirty hack.
Marat's fix is nicer, can I ask some of the msysGit guys to ack it?
(Appended below for the new cc's here.)

Have a nice day,

PS: I bet Dscho will be able to handle the conflict.

[PATCH] Win32: move main macro to a function

[Stepan Kasal]

From: Karsten Blees <blees@dcon.de>
Date: Fri, 7 Jan 2011 19:47:23 +0100

The code in the MinGW main macro is getting more and more complex,
move to a separate initialization function for readabiliy and
extensibility.

Hello,
  this is commit 0115ef83 alias 9206e7fd that Karsten mentioned.

Junio, this one has been in msysgit for 2 or 3 years, so you can
suppose it is acked.

Have a nice day,

[PATCH 09/12] Makefile: introduce CROSS_COMPILE variable

[Marat Radchenko]

To ease cross-compilation process, introduce a single variable
with the prefix to all compiler-related executables.

Define CROSS_COMPILE=foo- if your compiler and binary utilities
are foo-cc, foo-ar, foo-strip, etc.  More specific variables
override this, so if you set CC=gcc CROSS_COMPILE=ia64-linux-gnu-
then the compiler will be 'gcc', not 'ia64-linux-gnu-gcc'.

[PATCH 10/12] MINGW: compat/poll/poll.c: undef NOGDI

[Marat Radchenko]

On MinGW-W64, MsgWaitForMultipleObjects is guarded with #ifndef NOGDI.

Removal -DNOGDI=1 from config.mak.uname has an undesirable effect of
bringing in wingdi.h with weird #define ERROR 0 that conflicts with
internal Git enums. So, just #undef NOGDI in compat/poll/poll.c.

compat/poll/poll.c comes from Gnulib, so it would be better to submit
the patch there and then backport so that the divergence of the two
versions does not get worse.

That's why v1 of this patch [1] didn't touch poll.c at all.
I don't think it's gnulib problem that combination of two third-parties
(git and mingw-w64) set up such conditions where poll.c fails to compile.

If one wants to dig deeper, I'd say the problem is in MinGW-W64 headers
because their behavior of hiding MsgWaitForMultipleObjects doesn't
match behavior of MSVC headers.

ouch!  It looks like you everyone sending you elsewhere.  I apologize
for being part of that.  (I was not aware about the previous version.)

Well, yes and no: gnulib is mostly a collection of compatibility
reimplementaions of functions that should be available on an ideal
system.

Thank you very much for this analysis.
It enables us to redirect you the third time: to report this as a
bug in MinGW-W64 !  ;-)

Seriously, it looks you found the best description of the problem,
and it would be nice if you could modify your patch so that it
is really a work around: it would be in effect only for MinGW-W64,
and the comment would explain that this is a hack to work around the
bug.  

If you manage to change the defs for poll.c without changing its
content, no one could tell you to report to gnulib first.

OTOH, if MsgWaitForMultipleObjects is present ustream (in gnulib's
poll.c, sorry that I cannot check right now), it still might be
better to submit the work-around there first.

Thanks for your work,
	Stepan Kasal

I'll report this to MinGW-W64 soon, though even if/when they fix
the issue on their side, I'd still like to have a workaround in
Git to be able to use older MinGW-W64 versions that didn't
receive a fix.

Workarounds do not have to be ugly and full of #ifdef's.

v1 does exactly this.

Workaround is "just don't pass -DNOGDI on MinGW-W64 if you want
MsgWaitForMultipleObjects", there's nothing to send to gnulib.
After all, was there a strong reason why Git started passing it?
What is there was no option to disable part of windows.h?

I'm afraid they have to.  If you just select one of the reasonable
variants, without noting that the other ones would trigger a bug, you
are lying a trap for future contributors.

Yes, but it changes the define for other configurations as well
(MSVC, mingw 32bit).  I would suggest something along the change
below.

What do you think?

MinGW-w64 != x86_64; it provides a i686 compiler as well.

thanks for correcting me.  The diff was just a quick sketch.
Every workaround should say what bug is working around, otherwise it

I agree with that. Can you file a bug report?

[PATCH 11/12] compat/nedmalloc/malloc.c.h: fix compilation under MinGW-W64

[Marat Radchenko]

1. Unlike MinGW, MinGW-W64 already provides _ReadWriteBarrier macro,
   so don't try to redefine it.

2. MinGW-W64 has a strange definition FORCEINLINE as
   extern __inline__ __attribute__((__always_inline__,__gnu_inline__))

   'extern' doesn't work together with 'static', so #undef MinGW-W64
   version of FORCEINLINE.

[PATCH 12/12] MINGW: config.mak.uname: add explicit way to request MinGW-build

[Marat Radchenko]

When crosscompiling, one cannot rely on `uname` from host system.
Thus, add an option to use `make MINGW=1` for building MinGW build
from non-MinGW host (Linux, for example).
