This requires some small changes in the stdenv, then working around the
weird choice LLVM made to hardcode @rpath in its install name, and then
lets us remove a ton of annoying workaround hacks in many of our Go
packages. With any luck this will mean less hackery going forward.
The source distribution contains binaries (probably for testing) that
make the Avira virus scanner treat it as malware on account of a “bad
ELF header”. Apart from being preferable in general, the HTTPS download
makes the file opaque to the overeager AV scanner in transparent
proxying setups.
Also adapt to the fact that the canonical downloads now point to a URL
like this:
https://releases.llvm.org/4.0.1/llvm-4.0.1.src.tar.xz
Needed to build an executable that uses OpenMP with clang. This
includes a header file and a library that clang will link into an
executable whose source makes use of ‘omp‘ pragmas.
This is in preparation for the LLVM 4 upgrade (which gets more strict
about e.g., return false in xcbuild itself) and also for using xcbuild
more extensively in the Darwin stdenv bootstrap process, which is why I
killed the unnecessary gcc dependency in the toolchain. llvm-cov pretends
to be gcov anyway, so we're fine.
Split outputs because there's no point in keeping a reference to Python
and it causes trouble during the Darwin stdenv bootstrap. There's also
an unnecessary dependency on LLVM in libc++ which causes us to rebuild
LLVM several more times than necessary during bootstrap, and an awkward
dependency on XPC in the TSAN that we turn off. This is in preparation
for using LLVM 4 in the Darwin stdenv and by default across nixpkgs.
This reflects upstream versioning change, and allows
us to replace 4.0 with 4.1 (which is now a minor revision)
without changing the attribute name.
Thanks to @vcunat for the idea.
