[Mesa-dev] [Mesa-stable] [PATCH 3/7] configure.ac: rework llvm libs handling for 3.9+

[Andres Gomez]

Emil, this patch series introduces a lot of changes on how we treat
LLVM's dependency.

After applying this patch in the stable queue, I get these errors:

For the "make Gallium Drivers SWR" and "make Gallium Drivers Other"
targets:

"
...
  CXXLD    gallium_dri.la
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/llvm-3.9/lib/libLLVMX86CodeGen.a(X86FloatingPoint.cpp.o): unrecognized relocation (0x2a) in section `.text._ZNK12_GLOBAL__N_13FPS16getAnalysisUsageERN4llvm13AnalysisUsageE'
/usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Bad value
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
...
"

While, for the "make Vulkan" target:

"
...
  CXXLD    libvulkan_radeon.la
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/llvm-3.9/lib/libLLVMAMDGPUCodeGen.a(R600OptimizeVectorRegisters.cpp.o): unrecognized relocation (0x2a) in section `.text._ZNK12_GLOBAL__N_119R600VectorRegMerger16getAnalysisUsageERN4llvm13AnalysisUsageE'
/usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Bad value
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
...
"

Bumping to binutils 2.26 with the subsequent patch of the series
doesn't seem to help. You can take a look at:

https://travis-ci.org/Igalia/release-mesa/builds/292370423


So, although, if I'm understanding correctly, this seems to be a
problem in LLVM/binutils rather than in Mesa, I'm weary of applying
this whole series.

What do you think?

Thanks.
