## Deterministic macOS App Notes
|
||||
|
||||
macOS Applications are created in Linux by combining a recent `clang` and the Apple
|
||||
`binutils` (`ld`, `ar`, etc).
|
||||
macOS Applications are created in Linux using a recent LLVM.
|
||||
|
||||
Apple uses `clang` extensively for development and has upstreamed the necessary
|
||||
functionality so that a vanilla clang can take advantage. It supports the use of `-F`,
|
||||
`-target`, `-mmacosx-version-min`, and `-isysroot`, which are all necessary when
|
||||
building for macOS.
|
||||
|
||||
Apple's version of `binutils` (called `cctools`) contains lots of functionality missing in the
|
||||
FSF's `binutils`. In addition to extra linker options for frameworks and sysroots, several
|
||||
other tools are needed as well. These do not build under Linux, so they have been patched to
|
||||
do so. The work here was used as a starting point: [mingwandroid/toolchain4](https://github.com/mingwandroid/toolchain4).
|
||||
|
||||
In order to build a working toolchain, the following source packages are needed from
|
||||
Apple: `cctools`, `dyld`, and `ld64`.
|
||||
|
||||
These tools inject timestamps by default, which produce non-deterministic binaries. The
|
||||
`ZERO_AR_DATE` environment variable is used to disable that.
|
||||
|
||||
This version of `cctools` has been patched to use the current version of `clang`'s headers
|
||||
and its `libLTO.so` rather than those from `llvmgcc`, as it was originally done in `toolchain4`.
|
||||
|
||||
To complicate things further, all builds must target an Apple SDK. These SDKs are free to
|
||||
download, but not redistributable. See the SDK Extraction notes above for how to obtain it.
