Yes, something seems wrong with the gcc.

If I disable StartupSound it falls somewhere else 

[CC] BmLib
d=c99: In function 'SqrtF':
d=c99:40:3: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault: 11
   40 |   Yf = X * 0.3f;
      |   ^~

It is perfect in Catalina Beta 6 and Xcode 11 beta 2. Now I am going to update the OS and Xcode, let see what

I am on latest Catalina and Xcode 11 final.

There are also other reports (arsradu) with same problem.

Bro' I hope you are not afraid that I don't believe you because I trust you,  but is it more interesting to know who is buggy between gcc or Xcode. Probably the second as was working fine .

Ha, no! I was just excluding it is something with my system :)

And yes it would be good to know.

Did it break for you after the update?

Yes, but I find also a way to make it work, some how.

personally I'm trusting more GNU guys than Apple ones :)

how true. Apple just break the standard library Lol

 

To compile with Xcode 11 GM had to edit this file as a workaround: 

/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/include/Availability.h

search and delete or comment out these lines: 

#if defined(__has_builtin)

and  

#endif /* #if defined(__has_builtin) */

..but of course without deleting everything in the middle. Not sure how to fix it, i.e. building gcc.

May be somewhere in build_gcc script define arg -D__has_builtin?

tomorrow I'll try that!

EDIT
won't work because stdio.h must be included before stdlib.h. GNU guys can do that in autoconf, or Apple can fix Xcode 11 GM as in Xcode 11 beta 2 was fine.

The makefile rule for nasm sources is generted from build_rule.txt 


        "$(NASM)" -I${s_path}(+) $(NASM_INC) $(NASM_FLAGS) -o $dst ${d_path}(+)${s_base}.iii

and I see this line in cbuild.bat 


  set NASM_INC=

which is not found in ebuild.sh.  Could have something to do with it.

You can look in the Build product folder (Build\Clover\RELEASE_VS2015x86\X64\MdePkg\Library\BaseLib\BaseLib) and compare the makefile generated for macOS (GNUmakefile) to the makefile generated for Windows see if produces a different rule.

 

When I comment out on line 603-606, they no longer produced invalid path (I guess, with caret on last line) on their makefile, something like below: 

INC =  \
    -I$(WORKSPACE)\Source\edk2\MdePkg\Library\BaseIoLibIntrinsic\X64 \
    -I$(WORKSPACE)\Source\edk2\MdePkg\Library\BaseIoLibIntrinsic \
    -I$(DEBUG_DIR) \
    -I$(WORKSPACE)\Source\edk2\MdePkg \
    -I$(WORKSPACE)\Source\edk2\MdePkg\Include \
    -I$(WORKSPACE)\Source\edk2\MdePkg\Include\X64

NASM_INC =  \
    -I$(WORKSPACE)\Source\edk2\MdePkg\Library\BaseIoLibIntrinsic\X64\ \
    -I$(WORKSPACE)\Source\edk2\MdePkg\Library\BaseIoLibIntrinsic\ \
    -I$(DEBUG_DIR)\ \
    -I$(WORKSPACE)\Source\edk2\MdePkg\ \
    -I$(WORKSPACE)\Source\edk2\MdePkg\Include\ \
    -I$(WORKSPACE)\Source\edk2\MdePkg\Include\X64^\

are you sensed something Lol?  the package is nearly to be the same ...So   Clover.app.zip .. .tell me if you like..

 

P.S. is it in embryonic state and anyway will require time..

I think it should be prefPane with a checkbox to show in the Menu.

We are gathered here to discuss.

1. Mount/umount EFI

2. Check for updates.

3. Set nvram variables with prefix Clover. {theme, sound}

4. Check for existing themes? Or delegate this functionality to CloverThemeManager?

1. Mount/umount EFI

mount is already present in the installer (maybe a prominent popup to select the desired disk and open the volume), but not umount ...isn't it useless as you can do it just using the Finder? 

Anyway I can do it if a need be

2. Check for updates.

Already present, or better to say the app already know which is the latest release available on github and the relative link, but since I don't want to download the package... it should download the entire CloverV2 directory or just a copy of the app itself (it is built against Clover.. so always will have latest Clover embedded).

there will be!

The idea is to install Extras as a separate thing from Clover (themes, rc script etc.). The actual pkg reached some limits because you select a volume, but is not the one to install Clover into, plus you don't really know if the desired ESP will be used (raid, fusion, fv2... a mix of them) . The installer-app instead know that has to show only partitions formatted in fat32/exfat/hfs to install the boot loader:

while rc script for example will have only "/" as a target volume, without the risk to ruin Catalina because you choiced the user partition instead of the System partition. pretty easy with no headache. 

CloverThemeManager is good enough, so why not install a theme only on fresh installations (i.e. the case you need one), and let users using it?

 

P.S. aving the CloverV2 directory embedded... the iso can always be created on the fly at user will.

GCC9 issues on Catalina were a mix of:

- GMP having to be compiled (for now) with no-stack-check flag in order not to produce segmentation fault, until the cause of this issue is fully tracked.

- the Availability.h issue (a patch for that is available now from homebrew)

- need to set CPATH to Xcode's path, as /usr/include is no longer available on Catalina.

 

I committed corresponding workarounds to build_gcc9.sh, so now it should be able to produce a working gcc9 toolchain with Catalina. Make sure to erase old attempts before it can work, as GMP needs to be recompiled.

The UUID = C12A7328-F81F-11D2-BA4B-00A0C93EC93B is exactly for EFI partition and not for MS-DOS partition

 

About CloverThemeManager it is good application for its purpose.

See old Clover.prefPane, it allows to choose a theme among installed for next boot.
