22:07 activelow; meanwhile, i could repair kernel 5.9/5.10LTS to compile with legacy gcc-4.7.4; replaced some C11 macros with C90/99 compliant ones, which was almost trivial

22:07 *activelow raises an eyebrow

22:08 activelow; not sure why GNU/Linux was breaking C90/C99 compatibility, since the benefit of those macros was absent

22:08 activelow; seems, this was introduced in parallel to clang support

22:08 activelow; i don't know

22:09 activelow; booting an aarch32 kernel from an aarch64 u-boot failed; however, it is possible to launch an aarch32 userspace on top of an aarch64 kernel, which suffices

22:10 activelow; which means, i need to keep a compiler which supports aarch64; all of them are c++ compilers nowadays (written in c++); at least it is easy to downgrade to a aarch32 kernel if i got some desired hardware (which isn't necessary)

22:11 activelow; and i can verify aarch32 toolchain with userspace, and test-compile any kernel even if i cannot launch it with the hardware i got

22:12 activelow; anyway, this is good news, my kernel patches to support gcc-4.7 didn't break anything; although i doubt it will be an easy task to "downgrade" to full C90/C99 compliance with GNU/Linux kernel

22:12 activelow; i'll try nonetheless, to see exactly which errors are hit;

22:13 activelow; btw. the C11 _Generic macro introduced into kernel v5.8/5.9/5.10LTS did absolutely this mutch: nothing; in fact the macro expansion of reduced code size from ~10Lines of code to 3lines only, which is somewhat ironic

22:14 activelow; and, this _Generic macros isn't a real macro, because it must expand into some C functions/routines; somehow _Generic seems to expose sort of a hook for code generation by gcc; don't know yet what this will do

22:14 activelow; best thing to do: removing it

22:17 activelow; and this raised further scepticism, about any other code-generation/instrumentation to support UBSAN, stack-smashing-protection (SSP); all of this instructs a compiler to add routines into the programme which weren't explicitely programmed

22:18 activelow; and i think, this sort of runtime diagnostic has little benefit only in production systems; such as catching a smashed stack terminates an application anyway

22:18 activelow; it only keeps a log entry the stack was smashed

22:19 activelow; i think, ASLR and read-only executable space are a saner choice and rather effective too; and runtime diagnostics and instrumentation maybe should be replaced by compile-time error detection

22:24 activelow; sorry for the noise, sometimes i need to type a little about what i am hacking and doing

11 PM, January 1

23:04 activelow; to verify if all c11 features can be removed from GNU/Linux kernel for C90/C99 compliance, i think, another downgrade to gcc-4.5 or earlier could be necessary

23:05 activelow; and i found, it was llvm/clang who introduced _Generic, 2012 already, yet GNU/Linux kernel refrained from this until kernel v5.8/5.9/5.10LTS

23:09 activelow; could be, one reason, why Torvalds said "biggest release": C11 featuritis, and gcc implementd in c++, besides the spectre this meltdown that

23:09 activelow; what saved my day is the fact an aarch32 userspace can be kept on top of an aarch64 kernel (CONFIG_COMPAT), to test the work of the last three weeks

23:27 *techrights_guest|99 has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)

23:32 psydroid4; that's actually what I was running in KVM, because the aarch32 kernel doesn't support KVM anymore

23:32 psydroid4; so it would do emulation even on an ARM chip

23:32 psydroid4; which is terribly slow

23:36 IPFS; IPFS downstream 60 minutes average 18.20 k/sec., IPFS upstream 155.03 average k/sec., average swarm size 246.64

23:41 activelow; talked to an ARM developer yesterday, because i had trouble with launching an aarch32 kernel

23:42 activelow; he confirmed, "exception level" must be changed somehow, to switch from aarch64 to aarch32, and EL1 doesn't permit hypervisor anymore

23:42 activelow; although, this is one of the features i wouldn't have missed: virtualization

23:42 activelow; i try to avoid "virtual machines" of any type whenever possible, even when these are hardware-based

23:44 activelow; well, i succeeded with hacking u-boot, to switch "exception level", and aarch32, nonetheless the kernel didn't launch... nothing on serial console, freeze

23:44 activelow; didn't expect this, because aarch64 was advertised as backwards compatible with aarch32, which however refers to virtualization and userspace binaries only

23:46 activelow; i could try to grab some rk3288 board to keep this as a powerful cross-compilation host, but this would require additional maintenance again, because ARM boards require a specifically tailored firmware and flashing almost always :(
