<title>GCC Upgrading</title> |

<p> |
| 38 |
Why should you upgrade? Well, GCC is quite similar to any other package on your |
| 39 |
system, just a bit more critical. You should upgrade GCC whenever a new version |
| 40 |
fixes some bug that annoys you, new functionality you need is introduced, or if |
| 41 |
you want to keep your system up-to-date. If none of the previous cases apply to |
| 42 |
you, you can safely postpone upgrade as long as your GCC version is supported by |
| 43 |
Gentoo developers. |
| 44 |
</p> |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
<p> |
| 47 |
If you install a newer version of GCC, the system will not switch over to use it |
| 48 |
automatically. You'll have to explicitly request the change because the |
| 49 |
migration process might require some additional steps. If you decide not to |
| 50 |
switch, Portage will continue to use older version of your compiler until you |
| 51 |
change your mind, or remove the old compiler from the system. |
| 52 |
</p> |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
<p> |
| 55 |
This guide will document the necessary steps required to perform a seamless |
| 56 |
upgrade of the compiler used by your Gentoo box. A specific section is |
| 57 |
dedicated to the <uri link="#upgrade-3.3-to-3.4">upgrade from GCC 3.3 to 3.4 or |
| 58 |
greater versions</uri> and issues with <c>libstdc++</c>. A second specific |
| 59 |
section is for users <uri link="#first-install">first installing</uri> Gentoo |
| 60 |
using a stage3 tarball, after a new GCC major/minor version has been released. |
| 61 |
</p> |
| 62 |
|
| 63 |
<note> |
| 64 |
It should be noted that upgrading from GCC-3.4 to GCC-4.0 or greater requires |
| 65 |
no real changes to be made by the user, as GCC-3.4 and GCC-4.0 use the same |
| 66 |
ABI. All that is required is that <c>gcc-config</c> is used to select the |
| 67 |
compiler desired. |

If you're looking for instructions specific to upgrades from GCC-3.3 to GCC-3.4 |
| 82 |
or greater, please consult the <uri link="#upgrade-3.3-to-3.4">dedicated |
| 83 |
section</uri>. |

| 93 |
Generally speaking, upgrades to <e>bug fix releases</e>, like from 3.3.5 to |
| 94 |
3.3.6, should be quite safe -- just emerge new version, switch your system to |
| 95 |
use it and rebuild the only affected package, <c>libtool</c>. However, some GCC |
| 96 |
upgrades break binary compatibility; in such cases a rebuild of the affected |
| 97 |
packages (or even whole toolchain and system) might be required. |
| 98 |
</p> |
| 99 |
|
| 100 |
<p> |
| 101 |
When we spoke about the need to switch your compiler to the newer version by |
| 102 |
hand, we said it won't happen automatically. However, there is one exception -- |
| 103 |
upgrades to bug fix releases, like from 3.3.5 to 3.3.6 in case you don't use the |
| 104 |
"multislot" feature allowing them to coexist on one system. Multislot is |
| 105 |
disabled by default as the majority of users won't benefit from it. |

It is safe to remove the older GCC version at this time. If you feel the need, |

please issue the following command (as usual, substitute |

The upgrade from GCC-3.3 to 3.4 or greater is not seamless as the C++ ABI |
| 152 |
changed between these two versions. There is an issue with the <c>libstdc++</c> |
| 153 |
library which must be taken care of, as well. |

If you're upgrading on a SPARC machine, you will have to take the way of |
| 164 |
<uri link="#upgrade-3.3-to-3.4-emerge-e">complete system rebuild</uri> due to |
| 165 |
some internal <uri link="http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-3.4/sparc-abi.html">ABI |
| 166 |
changes</uri> in GCC's parameter passing. |
| 167 |

<p> |

You have two possibilities on how to upgrade your system. The <uri |
| 171 |
link="#upgrade-3.3-to-3.4-revdep-rebuild">first method</uri> is faster and |
| 172 |
requires use of the <c>revdep-rebuild</c> tool from package <c>gentoolkit</c> |
| 173 |
while the <uri link="#upgrade-3.3-to-3.4-emerge-e">second one</uri> rebuilds the |
| 174 |
entire system from scratch so it will make use of new GCC features. It's up to |
| 175 |
you to decide which of these two ways you will choose. In most cases, the first |
| 176 |
method is sufficient. |

This method requires that you first install <c>gentoolkit</c> if you have not |
| 187 |
already done so. Then we will upgrade GCC and switch to the new compiler. We |
| 188 |
will also rebuild the <c>libtool</c> package to ensure that toolchain is in |

Now, we want to see which packages that revdep-rebuild will want to rebuild. |
| 209 |
Then we will tell revdep-rebuild to actually rebuild the packages. This may take |
| 210 |
some time, so have some patience. |

| 218 |
<note> |
| 219 |
It is possible that you might have problems with non-existing package versions |
| 220 |
due to them being outdated or masked. If this is the case, you will want to use |
| 221 |
the <c>--package-names</c> option to <c>revdep-rebuild</c>. This causes packages |
| 222 |
to be recompiled based on the package name, rather than the exact name and |
| 223 |
version. |

<p> |
| 227 |
To provide compatibility with older binary C++ applications and any packages |
| 228 |
that revdep-rebuild might have missed, <c>sys-libs/libstdc++-v3</c> needs to be |
| 229 |
merged before you unmerge GCC 3.3 from your system. |

This method, while much slower, will rebuild your whole system to ensure that |

everything has been rebuilt with your new compiler, and therefore safer. At |
| 246 |
first, you will upgrade GCC and libtool and switch to your new compiler. |

Now we will go about first rebuilding the system target, then the world target. |
| 274 |
This will take a very long time, depending on the number of packages that you |
| 275 |
have installed, as it will rebuild your entire toolchain and supporting system |
| 276 |
files, followed by every package on your system, including the toolchain. This |
| 277 |
is necessary to ensure that all packages have been compiled with the new |
| 278 |
toolchain, including the toolchain itself. |

It's important to disable <c>distcc</c> during upgrade. Mixing compiler versions |
| 305 |
on your nodes <e>will</e> cause build issues. This is not required for ccache, |
| 306 |
as the cache objects will be invalidated anyway. |
| 307 |
</p> |
| 308 |
|
| 309 |
<p> |
| 310 |
Always use same GCC version for your kernel and additional kernel modules. Once |
| 311 |
you rebuild your world with new GCC, external modules (like |
| 312 |
<c>app-emulation/qemu-softmmu</c>) will fail to load. Please rebuild your kernel |
| 313 |
with new GCC to fix that. |

<title>Upgrading to GCC on a First Install</title> |

| 368 |
A GCC upgrade on a system after installation from a stage3 tarball is a simple |
| 369 |
affair. One advantage users of new installations have is they do not have a |
| 370 |
plethora of software installed that links against the older version of GCC. |
| 371 |
The following example is for a GCC-3.3 to 3.4 or greater upgrade. Certain parts |
| 372 |
will be different if upgrading from other versions of GCC. For example, the |
| 373 |
library names used for <c>revdep-rebuild</c> below are GCC 3.3 specific, as |
| 374 |
well as the need to install <c>libstdc++-v3</c>. |
| 375 |
</p> |
| 376 |
|
| 377 |
<p> |
| 378 |
If a user has not made any customizations to their system yet, then there are |
| 379 |
very few steps to get their system upgraded to a new GCC version. As with the |
| 380 |
GCC-3.3 to 3.4 upgrade, the user has a couple options. However, unlike the |
| 381 |
GCC-3.3 to 3.4 upgrade, this one is less complicated as there are fewer |
| 382 |
differences between the methods. The <uri |
| 383 |
link="#first-install-revdep-rebuild">first method</uri> is faster and makes use |
| 384 |
of the <c>revdep-rebuild</c> tool from <c>gentoolkit</c>, similar to the above |
| 385 |
procedure. Using revdep-rebuild causes only packages which actually link |
| 386 |
against GCC libraries to be rebuilt, while the <uri |
| 387 |
link="#first-install-emerge-e">second method</uri> causes your entire new |
| 388 |
install to be recompiled with the new GCC version and takes much longer. This |
| 389 |
second method is never required and only documented for completeness. |
| 390 |
</p> |
| 391 |
|
| 392 |
<p> |
| 393 |
These first steps are common between both methods, and should be completed by |
| 394 |
everyone. |

This method requires that you first install <c>gentoolkit</c> if you have not |
| 429 |
already done so. We will then run <c>revdep-rebuild</c> to actually scan the |
| 430 |
installed packages for ones we need to rebuild, then rebuild them. |

<note> |

It is possible that you might have problems with non-existing package versions |
| 441 |
due to them being outdated or masked. If this is the case, you will want to use |
| 442 |
the <c>--package-names</c> option to <c>revdep-rebuild</c>. This causes packages |
| 443 |
to be recompiled based on the package name, rather than the exact name and |
| 444 |
version. |

This method, while much slower, will rebuild the system target to ensure that |
| 455 |
everything has been rebuilt with your new compiler. This is not necessary, but |
| 456 |
is valid if you are also making changes to CFLAGS or other make.conf variables |
| 457 |
that will affect the system compile. |

Since we are performing these actions after an initial installation, we do not |
| 485 |
need to recompile the world target as we would when doing an upgrade on an |
| 486 |
already installed system. However, you may choose to perform a world update in |
| 487 |
place of the system update, to ensure that all packages are updated. |

It is also safe to remove older GCC versions at this time. Since this is an |
| 496 |
initial installation, we are using portage's prune feature to remove all older |
| 497 |
versions of GCC. |
