I also noted that the fedora shipped compiler uses sjlj exception, apparently dwarf2 is the supported model... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Fedora 12: What projects for F12?
by Richard W.M. Jones 20 Mar '10

20 Mar '10

Fedora 11 is nearly in beta, and thanks to some judicious cuts at the end, we made it to 100% feature complete. Thanks to the many people who helped out reviewing packages and testing. What do we want to aim for in Fedora 12? Some ideas - please add your own to this thread. (1) Win64 support (see: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/fedora-mingw/2009-February/thread.… ) (2)? Use mingw-w64 project to build 32 bit w32api/runtime, since mingw-w64 seems to be more active. (3) Darwin / OS X support (see: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2009-March/msg00397.html ) (4) Get some of the issues resolved in the packaging guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/MinGW/Packaging_issues (5) Expand active members, particularly packagers. I would like to start by having a website which doesn't suck like our current one. (6) Move educational materials to a single place. (7) Have a FAQ. (8) I'd like to have a reasonable Python story. I spent a lot of time trying to get Python and Python libs to cross-compile, without any success.

Switching to DWARF2 exceptions
by Kalev Lember 01 Dec '09

01 Dec '09

Hello, We've talked about switching from SJLJ exceptions to DWARF2 for a while. Last time when we were asked to switch over [1], it was too late in Fedora release cycle to do it without compromising stability. However, now that F-13 cycle has begun, I think it would be right time to switch. Switching to DWARF2 is needed to fix binary compatibility with upstream mingw gcc 4 compiler. Besides that, SJLJ has runtime cost in the common case when no exceptions are thrown; DWARF2 doesn't have that problem. MinGW upstream also thinks that DWARF2 should be made default in FSF GCC in the future [2]. I have prepared needed changes to do the switchover. My tests show that throwing exceptions between mingw DLLs works correctly with DWARF2. But DWARF2 also includes a regression: unwinding through DLLs that use SEH exceptions (Visual Studio compilers produce that) no longer works. To work around that, upstream mingw has a patch to annotate functions which support unwinding with SEH with __attribute__((seh_aware)). I've tested that patch and it really does fix binary compatibility with binaries produced by Visual Studio. After the switchover mingw32-gcc will no longer provide "mingw32(libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll)". There are a number of mingw32- packages that require that; I'll need to rebuild those in correct depencency order to fix broken deps. The affected packages are: $ sudo repoquery --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=rawhide --qf '%{sourcerpm}' --whatrequires 'mingw32(libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll)' | sort | uniq | sed 's/-[^-]*-[^-]*\.src.rpm//' mingw32-boost mingw32-cairomm mingw32-cppunit mingw32-enchant mingw32-gettext mingw32-glibmm24 mingw32-gtkmm24 mingw32-hunspell mingw32-libglademm24 mingw32-libsigc++20 mingw32-libsqlite3x mingw32-libtiff mingw32-libxml++ mingw32-pangomm mingw32-plib mingw32-plotmm mingw32-pthreads mingw32-qt mingw32-qwt mingw32-zfstream I'll request commit access for each of those in pkgdb and rebuild the affected packages myself. I'm not very interested in having tons of broken dependencies introduced in rawhide, and the only way to avoid that is to rebuild the packages quickly. Also note that mingw32-qwt currently fails to rebuild in rawhide and will have a broken dep; Thomas Sailer said that qwt author thinks it's a bug in Qt itself.
