Compiling build environment fails in CMake directory

Post by xyefa » Wed Mar 09, 2016 8:56 pm

Hello,

My gcc version is gcc version 5.2.1 20151010 (Ubuntu 5.2.1-22ubuntu2)

I followed the build instructions here: https://github.com/RedPitaya/RedPitaya/ ... /README.md

Everything was fine until I got to CMake, which failed to build.

In Directory: /sandbox/test/RedPitaya/OS/buildroot/buildroot-2014.02/output/build/host-cmake-2.8.12.1

In file included from /sandbox/test/RedPitaya/OS/buildroot/buildroot-2014.02/output/build/host-cmake-2.8.12.1/Source/cmDocumentVariables.cxx:4:0:
/sandbox/test/RedPitaya/OS/buildroot/buildroot-2014.02/output/build/host-cmake-2.8.12.1/Bootstrap.cmk/cmsys/ios/sstream: In member function ‘void cmsys_ios::istringstream::clear(int)’:
/sandbox/test/RedPitaya/OS/buildroot/buildroot-2014.02/output/build/host-cmake-2.8.12.1/Bootstrap.cmk/cmsys/ios/sstream:176:34: error: invalid conversion from ‘int’ to ‘std::ios_base::iostate {aka std::_Ios_Iostate}’ [-fpermissive]
this->IStrStream::clear(flags);

The CMake mailing list seems to point to an issue with building CMake with GCC 5.1 (and very likely anything newer). The link is here: https://cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2015- ... 60486.html

However the work-around is not very clear. As I understand it, the test for configure is having a hard time finding the sstream functions (which are defined in iostream). It should find these in the c++ library ...

The output of my ./configure was:

/sandbox/test/RedPitaya/OS/buildroot/buildroot-2014.02/output/build/host-cmake-2.8.12.1$ ./configure

So it looks like these errors are tied to gcc 5.1 or greater and CMake ... I also had to patch ncurses which did not like gcc 5.1 (or greater). There is a known patch for ncurses and it worked.

In order to build the RedPitaya Ecosystem on my Ubuntu box which is running gcc 5.2 I might have to step down to gcc 4.9 or try to fix the CMake issue ...

Still poking around.

It seems likely that these are the root causes - I recently set up a fresh build vm with the recommended components and it worked without a hitch. So I'd say the source itself is in the clear.

Hello Nils,

What is the configuration of YOUR build environment? I will try to replicate that.

The issue turned out to be the Xilinx libstdc++ being picked up as opposed to the standard libstdc++. I unset the LD_LIBRARY_PATH and CMake got built. The Xilinx lib directory was the only thing defined in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Hmm, I never encountered problems with the library path myself, and neither did I have problems with nginx, as you reported in another thread.

I set up my build VM as described here, and make runs cleanly from start to finish.

Hello Nils,

Our systems are different. If I run it on Ubuntu 14.04, very likely things will work.

My machine is Ubuntu 15.10, which is using a newer gcc ...

dev@testbox:~$ uname -a
Linux 4.2.0-16-generic #19-Ubuntu SMP Thu Oct 8 15:35:06 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

dev@testbox:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 15.10
Release: 15.10
Codename: wily

OK, I got a couple of things for you:
  1. get these two packages - they do not interfere with your 5.1 toolchain

    Code: Select all

    sudo apt-get install gcc-4.9-multilib g++-4.9-multilib
  2. put a new directory "cmake" into OS/buildroot/patches and copy the following patch into it:
    0000-bootstrap-host-toolchain.zip
  3. The problem with nginx is actually that it has a home-brewed autoconfiguration procedure, which picks up the host toolchain instead of the crosscompiler and derives the wrong compiler options ("-Wno-unused" instead of the correct "-Wno-unused-parameter") for gcc versions >=5 . Replace patches/nginx.patch with this:
    nginx.zip
  4. call make with the following parameters

    Code: Select all

    make HOSTCC=gcc-4.9 HOSTCPP=cpp-4.9 HOSTCXX=g++-4.9
I tested all this on a 15.10 VM. The workaround for ncurses is not neccessary with the older toolchain, and neither is clearing LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
