Re: [Crash-utility] 'crash' compilation on Arch fails with -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2

----- Original Message ----- > Hi, > > Starting from recently Arch uses -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 flag for > compilation that seems affects latest glibc. This flag causes 'crash > tool' compilation error on Arch: I'm not familiar with "Arch", aside from what I can see in the https://www.archlinux.org web site. Anyway, I'm guessing that this may be only the first of a cascading set of these kinds of warnings when the embedded gdb-7.3.1 is built, since it apparently stops the build on the first file that generates a warning. If you're lucky, maybe it's only a handful? Anyway, if you cannot turn off the -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 flag, or set it to 1, for the crash utility build, then it obviously would require patches for dealing with each complaint. What version of gdb comes with "Arch"? Presuming that its version of gdb also gets built with -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2, then perhaps they (GNU) have dealt with these warnings in a later version of gdb? Or perhaps the "Arch" maintainers have patched their version of gdb? In either case, you could look at what GNU (or Arch) did with their version of of gdb to address the warnings in order to come up with a set of patches for the gdb-7.3.1 used by the crash utility. If they're not overwhelming, I'll certainly consider taking them in.
