--- Comment #5 from Mike Cui <[email protected]> --- I agree that WITH_SHARED_TOOLCHAIN should be the default. But here one small reason I care about having statically linked pre-built toolchain binaries. I have a really slow Intel Atom machine, buildworld on this machine takes 10+ hours, and most of that time is spent building llvm/clang twice. To save the toolchain bootstrap time, nowadays I download base.txz from the release I'm upgrading to, extract /usr/bin/{cc,c++,cpp,ld} and /usr/lib/clang, then do a make buildworld WITHOUT_CROSS_COMPILER=1. It's a massive timesaver. Because the base toolchain binaries are static I can almost always run newer version on older systems. When I tried this going to 12.1 RC it didn't work because ld.lld depended on a libc symbol I didn't have in 11. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-toolchain To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
