Things done

Replaces useLLVM, useArocc, and useZig with toolchain, cc, linker, and bintools attributes. This might not produce any rebuilds but we'll see. This has the advantage of preventing using${compiler} flags from colliding and not working correctly if we were to stack multiple pkgs* together.

  • Built on platform(s)
    • x86_64-linux
    • aarch64-linux
    • x86_64-darwin
    • aarch64-darwin
  • For non-Linux: Is sandboxing enabled in nix.conf? (See Nix manual)
    • sandbox = relaxed
    • sandbox = true
  • Tested, as applicable:
  • Tested compilation of all packages that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review rev HEAD". Note: all changes have to be committed, also see nixpkgs-review usage
  • Tested basic functionality of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • 25.05 Release Notes (or backporting 24.11 and 25.05 Release notes)
    • (Package updates) Added a release notes entry if the change is major or breaking
    • (Module updates) Added a release notes entry if the change is significant
    • (Module addition) Added a release notes entry if adding a new NixOS module
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

The main idea and motivation is in: pkgs/stdenv/cross/default.nix

Should Darwin be a distinct value? It uses the system unwinder, which is based on libunwind, but it’s part of libSystem and linked automatically. If so, I’d make it something like libunwind-system. That should also simplify the checks in LLVM for whether to link libunwind.

Can the Darwin check be dropped since targetPlatform.rtlib will be compiler-rt on Darwin.

What about when people change the value?

If someone changes it to libgcc on Darwin?

I fixed the rust stuff a bit more so it's based on build and target not quite aligning which should match the cases for the LLVM hack. I've also got the bintools evaling to the same value before the changes so the rebuild counts for Darwin and Linux should be little.
