Fixes Bazel build on Raspberry Pi 3 Raspbian GNU/Linux 9 (stetch). The portability bug is that sysconf() returns a long unsigned int but size_t is unsigned int (on the Pi 3) unsigned int causing a compilation failure (see below). Fixing the code to be portable, in this case, seems harmless in the common case where size_t is 64 bits AFAICT.

(I don't know your org so please feel free to reassign.)

The compilation error I received is:

ERROR: /home/hallorant/src/bazel-0.13.1/third_party/ijar/BUILD:10:1: C++ compilation of rule '//third_party/ijar:zip' failed (Exit 1): gcc failed: error executing command

Bazel

{Fast, Correct} - Choose two

Build and test software of any size, quickly and reliably.

  • Speed up your builds and tests: Bazel only rebuilds what is necessary. With advanced local and distributed caching, optimized dependency analysis and parallel execution, you get fast and incremental builds.

  • One tool, multiple languages: Build and test Java, C++, Android, iOS, Go, and a wide variety of other language platforms. Bazel runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

  • Scalable: Bazel helps you scale your organization, codebase, and continuous integration solution. It handles codebases of any size, in multiple repositories or a huge monorepo.

  • Extensible to your needs: Easily add support for new languages and platforms with Bazel's familiar extension language. Share and re-use language rules written by the growing Bazel community.
