| Alexandros Liarokapis | Hi all! I am not sure if this is the proper channel to ask. I have a large set of embedded-compatible cmake libraries which I define using stdenv.mkDerivation. I would like to use the gcc-arm-embedded package in order to create a custom stdenv instead of going through the gcc bootstrapping with crossSystem. For caching reasons but also because the resulting library/executable binaries are ~40% larger. Is there any easy way currently to convert such toolchains to valid stdenvs? | 08:46:12 |
| Alexandros Liarokapis | Looking at the llvm stdenv it seems like a non-trivial process. I have also found a gist for using the zig toolchain as an stdenv: https://gist.github.com/Cloudef/acb74ff9e36ab41709479240596ab501 but I am not sure if the resulting stdenv takes into consideration everything. In general the process of creating stdenvs seems a bit ad-hoc but maybe it's just me being unfamiliar with the infra. | 08:49:35 |
| Alexandros Liarokapis | My end goal is to have something like the current localSystem/crossSystem infra but being able to easily use other toolchains because bootstrapping gcc is non trivial and it is also hard to modify the configure flags through naive overlays. I /think/ this is possible now through using the replaceStdEnv in crossSystem but I am unsure. | 08:53:34 |
