This update significantly reworks the llvm and clang packages. The llvm
package now includes variants allowing it to build and install any and
all of:
* clang
* lldb
* llvm's libunwind (why, WHY did they name it this?!?)
* polly (including building it directly into the clang tools, 3.7.0 only)
* clang extra tools
* compiler-rt (sanitizers)
* clang lto (the gold linker plugin that allows same to work)
* libcxx/libcxxabi
* libopenmp, also setting the default openmp runtime to same, when
parameters happen this shoudl be an option of libomp or libgomp
Ideally, this should have rpath setup like the gcc package does, but
clang's driver has no support for specs as such, and no clearly
equivalent mechanism either. If anyone has ideas on this, they would be
welcome.
One significant note related to gcc though, if you test this on LLNL
systems, or anywhere that has multiple GCCs straddling the dwarf2
boundary and sharing a libstdc++, build a gcc with spack and use that to
build clang. If you use a gcc4.8+ to build this with an older
libstdc++ it will fail on missing unwind symbols because of the
discrepancy.
Resource handling has been changed slightly to move the unpacked archive
into the target rather than use symlinks, because symlinks break certain
kinds of relative paths, and orders resource staging such that nested
resources are unpacked after outer ones.
A pile of libraries and tools, libedit is actually important as a
replacement of readline for non-GPL projects. Also ninja may be
worthwhile for some of the larger CMake projects, like llvm/clang.
- Adding `preferred=True` to a version directive will change its sort
order in concretization.
- This provides us a rudimentary ability to keep the Spack stack
stable as new versions are added.
- Having multiple stacks will come next, but this at least allows us
to specify default versions of things instead of always taking the
newest.
By default cmake builds its own curl, without SSL support. This
patch enables SSL when building cmake, fixing the following error:
error: downloading 'https://...' failed
status_code: 1
status_string: "Unsupported protocol"
log: Protocol "https" not supported or disabled in libcurl
