bootstrap/codegen_ssa: ship llvm-strip and use it for -Cstrip #131405

Fixes #131206.

  • Includes llvm-strip (a symlink to llvm-objcopy) in the compiler dist artifact so that it can be used for -Cstrip instead of the system tooling.
  • Uses llvm-strip instead of /usr/bin/strip for macOS. macOS needs a specific linker and the system one is preferred, hence Fix up setting strip = true in Cargo.toml makes build scripts fail in… #130781 but that doesn't work when cross-compiling, so use the llvm-strip utility instead.

We could make this same change to the illumos and AIX targets which also hardcode a path to a strip binary. Pinging relevant people for those targets to see if this would be desirable.

Probably t-bootstrap will have opinions here, because there are 2 "bin" directories 😓

Thank you for posting this. I tried twice and couldn't even figure out where to start.

illumos

AFAIK some change is needed for illumos too because using the default strip binary of Linux host causes a problem (oxidecomputer/helios#147).
However, I have not actually tested to see if using LLVM strip would solve the problem. (This comment may indicate that anything other than native strip utility would not work.)

also: it's probably safer to look for rust-objcopy in the tools search path and launch w/ the absolute path cmd rather than overriding the $PATH?

It probably is but we override the PATH for rust-lld so I'll keep it this way and we can change both together later.

Ah, do we? I remember we set the linker search path to the lld wrappers in the sysroot without overriding the PATH (so they should execute ../rust-lld without overrides), and that rustup ensures the PATH contains the bin and rustlib/bin folders, but didn’t remember rustc overrode it for rust-lld.

Yeah that's indeed likely it for the targets involving the linker directly. We don't need/make use of that on the common linux/mac targets.

@jclulow (we have no target maintainers for the illumos targets in the documentation, but I've seen @jclulow in the issue tracker and I know is involved in illumos)

Hey, with my apologies, someone pointed this out to me recently and I owe a PR to fix the docs and list some maintainers there.

We could make this same change to the illumos and AIX targets which also hardcode a path to a strip binary. Pinging relevant people for those targets to see if this would be desirable.

When we're running on an illumos host and compiling for an illumos target, we definitely want to use the system strip binary explicitly. If we're cross compiling, either on an illumos host for a non-illumos target, or on a non-illumos host, I don't have a particular preference and we should do whatever is tested to work there.

Does that make sense?

Thanks for headsup. On AIX, we are still using /usr/bin/strip. llvm-strip is not compatible with AIX's system strip utility.

Thanks for headsup. On AIX, we are still using /usr/bin/strip. llvm-strip is not compatible with AIX's system strip utility.

Okay, I've kept AIX's logic as it is, but I have added a warning when cross-compiling that whatever is in /usr/bin/strip may not work because it isn't AIX's system strip.

When we're running on an illumos host and compiling for an illumos target, we definitely want to use the system strip binary explicitly. If we're cross compiling, either on an illumos host for a non-illumos target, or on a non-illumos host, I don't have a particular preference and we should do whatever is tested to work there.

Does that make sense?

That makes sense. I've kept /usr/bin/strip if not cross-compiling, and we'll now use llvm-strip instead of /usr/bin/strip when cross-compiling (that seems more likely to work reliably than relying on whatever /usr/bin/strip could be). I also changed the condition we used here from target.os == "illumos" to target.is_like_solaris, since that's why we have is_like_solaris in the first place. Let me know if that's not correct and there is some difference with stripping between illumos and solaris in general.

Thanks, this looks good to me (with compiler hat 🎩 on). Feel free to r=albertlarsan68 and me after a rebase.
