[It may well be that powerpc is not an intended cross compile target via =
clang since clang is insufficient for an FreeBSD/powerpc ABI compliant =
buildworld as stands. Still I use this to illustrate the more general =
points for clang use in cross builds.]

The failure:

> --- libc.so.7.full ---
> /usr/bin/ld: unrecognised emulation mode: elf32ppc_fbsd
> Supported emulations: elf_x86_64_fbsd elf_i386_fbsd
> clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see =
invocation)

> 1 error

> make[4]: stopped in /usr/src/lib/libc
> *** [lib/libc__L] Error code 2

Note the /usr/bin/ld use: the host (amd64) linker for a powerpc link =
operation.

The log shows the ld command was via clang=E2=80=99s front end as far as =
what the build did directly (just a prefix shown):

> --- libc.so.7.full ---
> /usr/bin/clang -target powerpc-unknown-freebsd11.0 =
--sysroot=3D/usr/obj/clang/powerpc.powerpc/usr/src/tmp =
-B/usr/obj/clang/powerpc.powerpc/usr/src/tmp/usr/bin  -nodefaultlibs =
-Wl,--version-script=3DVersion.map  -shared -Wl,-x -Wl,--fatal-warnings =
-Wl,--warn-shared-textrel  -o libc.so.7.full -Wl,-soname,libc.so.7  =
`NM=3D'nm' NMFLAGS=3D'' lorder trivial-vdso_tc.So bt_close.So bt_conv.So =
bt_debug.So bt_delete.So bt_get.So bt_open.So bt_overflow.So bt_page.So
. . .

The -B does not point to a place with a powerpc specific ld command:

> # ls -lt /usr/obj/clang/powerpc.powerpc/usr/src/tmp/usr/bin
> total 1395
> -rwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel  827248 May 29 22:20 ctfmerge
> -rwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel  534712 May 29 22:20 sysinit
> -rwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel  960784 May 29 22:20 ctfconvert

As far as I can tell a potentially proper path would have been:

/usr/local/powerpc-freebsd/bin/ld

if a devel/powerpc-binutils port existed and was installed. (No such =
port exists.)

I do not know if other TARGET_ARCH=E2=80=99s have similar problems or =
not (even if they have a binutils port).


This was not a WITH_META_MODE=3Dyes context.


make.conf was empty and src.conf was:
