Here are some updates about the status of the 3.5.0 import. * i386 and amd64 have been tested through make universe, and everything should compile and run. * Little-endian ARM builds should now compile and run, thanks to Andrew Turner for putting in lots of work. * Big-endian ARM is apparently supposed to work, but I'm not sure if Andrew managed to test it on real hardware. * PowerPC64 should mostly work, thanks to Justin Hibbits. * PowerPC32 might start working soon; it really needs some backporting of fixes to clang 3.4.1, which is now in head, so there is an easier upgrade path for PowerPC users. * Sparc64 still does not work, and I don't see any quick solutions to it for now. It should probably stay with gcc. * Mips will only have a chance with the upcoming clang 3.6.0, but that is way too late for this import. It will probably require external toolchain support to get it working. * Another ports exp-run was done [3], after fixing the problem with lang/gcc, which lead to many skipped dependent ports. * The second exp-run had much better results: the failure with the highest number of dependencies is devel/mingw32-gcc, but this seems to be due to a problem with makeinfo, not clang. The next highest on the list is java/openjdk6, for which ports r374780 [4] was very recently committed. I would really like to merge this branch to head in about a week, pending portmgr approvall; I don't expect the base system (outside of llvm/clang) to need any further updates. Lastly, to clear things up about the requirements for this branch (and thus for head, in a while); to build it, you need to have: * A C++11 capable "host" compiler, e.g. clang >=3D 3.3 or later, or gcc >=3D 4.8 (I'm not 100% sure if gcc 4.7 will work, reports welcome) * A C++11 standard library, e.g. libc++, or libstdc++ from gcc >=3D 4.8. So from any earlier standard 10.x or 11.x installation, you should be good, unless you explicitly disabled clang or libc++. In that case, you must build and install both of those first. On a 9.x installation, you will have clang by default, but not libc++, so libc++ should be built and installed first, before attempting to build the clang350-import branch. On 8.x an earlier, you need to upgrade to at least 9.x first, follow the previous instruction. As for MFC'ing, I plan on merging clang 3.5.x to 10.x in a while (roughly a month), but this will cause upgrades from 9.x to 10.x to start requiring the build of libc++, as described above. I don't think we can merge clang 3.5.x to 9.x, unless clang becomes the default compiler there (but that is very unlikely). -Dimitry [1] svn://svn.freebsd.org/base/projects/clang350-import [2] = https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/svn.html#svn-mi= rrors [3] = http://pb2.nyi.freebsd.org/build.html?mastername=3Dhead-amd64-PR195480-def= ault&build=3D2014-12-12_23h17m02s [4] https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/ports/374780 --Apple-Mail=_0B8D3B99-55C1-4902-9EE7-A3F0D2EA96CD Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: Message signed with OpenPGP using GPGMail -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.26 iEYEARECAAYFAlSQibcACgkQsF6jCi4glqMLqACdFS2s3k6N5P/wyb7iIfxuLpn5 2CoAn1K6tH3+OtZZc+K5NncA4dYaTE52 =Tg7o -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Apple-Mail=_0B8D3B99-55C1-4902-9EE7-A3F0D2EA96CD--
