'__config_site' file not found

[alexirion]

Using a self-build clang 14.0.6, setup for cross compiling for arm-linux-gnueabihf, leads to the compilation error:

/usr/local/bin/../include/c++/v1/__config:13:10: fatal error: '__config_site' file not found

I build clang 14.0.6 by:

cmake -G Ninja -S llvm -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS="clang" -DLLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIMES="libcxx;libcxxabi" -DLLVM_RUNTIME_TARGETS="arm-linux-gnueabihf" \
-DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD="ARM"

When I use -I/usr/local/include/arm-linux-gnueabihf/c++/v1 the compilation works, however I would expect that clang could find that target non-agnostic file without explicitly setting the include directory, by using the value of the -target option.

CXXFLAGS is set to --target=arm-linux-gnueabihf -march=armv8-a -mcpu=cortex-a72 -mfpu=neon-fp-armv8 -mfloat-abi=hard -stdlib=libc++.

Here the full verbose compilation output, which fails:

[victorstewart]

this still isn't fixed in 15.0.2?

[mizvekov]

I see this problem when running lldb tests from the test suite on a linux system.

Copying __config_site into the main include dir helps getting everything to work (Horrible workaround, but indicates this is the only problem affecting the system).

[ldionne]

I think this is a Clang problem -- the Clang driver for that target isn't looking into the right directory.

@petrhosek Any clue about this? Shouldn't the driver for all targets now be looking into the per-target include dir?

[petrhosek]

Clang should add that include path automatically, see https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/13b8362f02dc8da35512c3e9204632760cfb367a/clang/lib/Driver/ToolChains/Gnu.cpp#L3073-L3076

I think the issue here is the triple. You pass --target=arm-linux-gnueabihf (that is 32-bit ARM Linux) but also -march=armv8-a -mcpu=cortex-a72 which overrides the triple, so the effective normalized triple is going to be aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu (that is 64-bit ARM Linux) and Clang will end up looking in /usr/local/include/aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu/c++/v1 which doesn't exist since you've built libc++ for arm-linux-gnueabihf.

I'd also point out that you're only building the 32-bit ARM backend because you pass -DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD="ARM", so I'd expect -march=armv8-a -mcpu=cortex-a72 to cause an error during later stages since there's no 64-bit backend.

I'm not sure what's the right behavior in this case, maybe Clang should complain that the --target, -march and -mcpu are incompatible?

[alexirion]

Same issue, when I only pass --target=arm-linux-gnueabihf without -march and -cpu. The /usr/local/include/arm-linux-gnueabihf/c++/v1 is not in the search path. It makes now arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf from --target=arm-linux-gnueabihf.

[GavinRay97]

Also having with problem, with LLVM 16 dev and Fedora Rawhide on x86_x64-linux-gnu

I built from source using:

$ cmake -S llvm -B build -G Ninja \
	-DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS="clang;clang-tools-extra" \
 	-DLLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIMES="compiler-rt;libcxx;libcxxabi" \
	-DLLVM_USE_LINKER=mold \
	-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
	-DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang \
	-DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++
$ cd build
$ cmake --build . --target install

[alexirion]

With setting -DLLVM_RUNTIME_TARGETS="arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf" it has finally worked! :-) Here the unknown is important! The __config_site file is then created in /usr/local/include/arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf/c++/v1 and is later on found when compiling a program with --target=arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf. Might be better when the value of LLVM_RUNTIME_TARGETS would also be normalized, then leaving out the "unknown" would work in the same way?

[petrhosek]

Yes, normalizing triples in LLVM_RUNTIME_TARGETS is planned, but there's some groundwork we need to do first.

[luporl]

I was also seeing this issue when running ninja check-all, from the build directory, when using release/16.x.

The following patch fixed the issue for me:

I don't know if this is the right way to fix this, but there are some mismatches regarding LLVM_ENABLE_PER_TARGET_RUNTIME_DIR on ARM:

• It's turned off in llvm/CMakeLists.txt, because it's not supported. But it was ON for runtimes.
• LLDB tests expect __config_site to be on ${LLVM_BINARY_DIR}/include/c++/v1 but libcxx/include/CMakeLists.txt was always generating it on ${LLVM_BINARY_DIR}/include/${LLVM_DEFAULT_TARGET_TRIPLE}/c++/v1.
• clang doesn't look for any target specific include directory in my install location, /usr/local, but only searches /usr/local/include. It does search /usr/include/arm-linux-gnueabihf, however.

That said, you will have to investigate where __config_site is generated: do you see it anywhere in your object tree? If so, in which directory is it? And if it was not generated, can you check the CMake logs to see why?

I've got include/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/c++/v1/__config_site in my installation, which works fine. Until you try to invoke clang as, e.g. clang++ -target x86_64-pc-linux ... or any other kind of an equivalent, but not identical target triple.

I've got include/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/c++/v1/__config_site in my installation, which works fine. Until you try to invoke clang as, e.g. clang++ -target x86_64-pc-linux ... or any other kind of an equivalent, but not identical target triple.

If you specify a -target that doesn't match the installed clang target, you'll have more issues, the missing __config_site is just the first one reported.

Question is, why is the source build of LLVM result in the x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu triple on Linux, while e.g. a Debian package build produces x86_64-pc-linux (which happens to be what Boost is using in its clang toolchain).
