ARM gdb compilation fails with implicit function declaration error ioctl

Excuses if is not actually a macports issue but I’m a bit lost.

I’m about to build this:
https://gitlab.com/LinkiTools/binutils-gdb <https://gitlab.com/LinkiTools/binutils-gdb>


/Users/kuku/Downloads/binutils-gdb-users-ARM-embedded-gdb-master-2018q4/




Running ./configure and make in this directory ends with an error:

config.status: executing default commands
rm -f readline.o
gcc -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H    -I. -I. -DRL_LIBRARY_VERSION='"6.2"' -g -O2 readline.c

Is there a way to either pass gcc an appropriate -W switch to overcome this error or „repair“ the readline source accordingly?


$ gcc --version
Configured with: --prefix=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr --with-gxx-include-dir=/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX10.15.sdk/usr/include/c++/4.2.1
Apple clang version 12.0.0 (clang-1200.0.32.28)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin19.6.0
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin

OS is macOS Catalina 10.15.7

Help greatly appreciated.

(reason why not using a binary package is that I want to apply a patch to arm-none-eabi-gdb.

Thanks

Christoph Kukulies
