- also make make_orig-dl_tarball.sh more reproducible - update documentation about our new bootstrapping processes - rename dlstage0 build profile to fit the "pkg.$package.$profilename" schema. lintian still complains, never mind..

This source package is unfortunately quite tricky and with
|
|
several cutting edges, due to the complexity of rust-lang
|
|
bootstrapping system and the high rate of language changes
|
|
still ongoing.
|
|
|
|
We try to describe here inner packaging details and the
|
|
reasons behind them.

Embedded libraries
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
This source package embeds several external libraries (foeked and managed
|
|
by rust upstream as git submodules).
|
|
In early stages, many more libraries were forked/emebedded but we are steadily
|
|
progressing in splitting them out.
|
|
|
|
Here below the remaining ones, with the technical reasons.
|
|
|
|
* jemalloc from https://github.com/rust-lang/jemalloc
|
|
-> system-wide one can't be used due to rust using a "je_" prefix.
|
|
|
|
This is intentional upstream design and won't change soon, see:
|
|
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/18678
|
|
- http://smallcultfollowing.com/babysteps/blog/2014/11/14/allocators-in-rust/
|
|
|
|
* compiler-rt from https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-rt
|
|
-> system-wide compiler-rt fails during linkage
|
|
|
|
Bug reported upstream, still to be fixed, see:
|
|
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/15054
|
|
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/15708
|
|
|
|
As a summary, we plan to:
|
|
* keep embedding jemalloc (probably forever)
|
|
* work with upstream to fix compiler-rt linkage soon.
