gcc 4.4.0 and ppl

ezzetabi · 2008-09-27 13:35:13

It seems gcc will use the parma polyhedra library from the version 4.4.0.
http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Graphite

I made a package for the ppl and I put in the aur, soon or later it will be a gcc dep, so it is important it works.
So can you people please try to make the package? If you have some cpu time to spare uncomment the tests so the lib will be completely tested before packaging.
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=20280

Bagnara, maintainer of the ppl, said me to avoid to make a `official' version until the version 0.10 is final.
So at the moment only the cvs version is available.

Thanks for cooperation.

Edit: random enough: this is my 440th message...

I was looking into this the other day after I saw the graphite branch had been merged. I was just going to use ppl-0.10-pre30. Are you also making a package for cloog-ppl-git?

I will add the add the appropriate configure flags to my gcc-snapshot package in the AUR.

Oh, yes. I make the cloog-ppl package outright.

Edit: I have some linking problems. I see what I can do. I also try to downgrade the ppl...

Edit2: We probably messed up with the lastest versions.
I made a 0.10pre30 package:
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=20282

and a cloog package:
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=20298

the cloog package always download the lastest git version. Do anyone knows how to download a specific release or nothing newer than a certain date?

Edit3:
The function cloog could not link
ppl_Polyhedron_add_generators_and_minimize and
ppl_Polyhedron_add_constraint_and_minimize
are obsolete, so they has been removed from ppl but not (YET) from cloog.
So if you need stuff now use 0.10pre30 and cloog current. Soon I'll pass to cvs.

Finally cloog has been updated. It works with the lastest ppl...
Please test, gcc will use it.

For anyone interested in in-depth knowledge of the new framework supporting things like Graphite, this paper I just found might be of help/interest:

Is there going to be an official release of ppl (other than an RC) & cloog-ppl before gcc-4.4 is released? I don't maintain the toolchain, but I would not be particularly happy linking against what appear to be reasonably unstable (in terms of being in heavy development) cvs/git snapshots. Also, gcc-4.4 works just fine without them - they just give bonus optimization.

The 16th of October we'll have the release candidate, if no problems happen in 8 days it will be a final. gcc 4.4.0 will probably arrive later.

Sorry, but I am missing the obvious... How can I delete my packages from the aur? I renamed parma-polyhedra-library to ppl but I do not know how to delete the old package... :S

Allan · 2008-10-08 23:28:21

Thanks for renaming this package. You need to ask a TU to remove old packages (I have deleted them).

Finally the 0.10 final....
