[bug#51241] [PATCH 1/1] gnu: ragel: Fix build of knot on aarch64-linux. |
|
Date: |

Make explicit Ragel's assumption of the "char" type being signed on both its
build and target platforms, allowing the current version of Knot and perhaps
other dependent packages to build successfully on aarch64-linux where "char"
is unsigned by default.
* gnu/packages/patches/ragel-specify-char-signedness.patch: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add it.
* gnu/packages/ragel.scm (ragel)[source]: Apply it.

+Ragel assumes C and C++'s "char" type is signed by default but this is not
+true for every architecture gcc supports. Prevent build failures of dependent
+packages (on architectures such as AArch64 where "char" is normally unsigned)
+by making explicit Ragel's assumption of character signedness.
+
+This is functionally very similar to upstream commit e2650a7, "common: Fix
+ambiguous CHAR_MIN/MAX definition", which is also meant to address this issue.
+However this patch applies to Ragel version 6 and it removes altogether the
+ambiguous "char" type from generated C code, causing Ragel to instead specify
+"signed char" or "unsigned char" as appropriate.
