mongo ripgrep builds

This directory contains scripts to produce portable, high-performance ripgrep binaries for all major platforms:

• Linux (manylinux2014 glibc 2.17 baseline): x86_64, aarch64, s390x, ppc64le
• macOS universal2 (x86_64 + arm64)
• Windows x86_64 (MSVC)

Each build uses bundled static PCRE2, LTO, and conservative CPU baselines to maximize portability.
All artifacts are placed in the dist/ directory.

🚀 Quick Start

🐧 Linux (manylinux2014 glibc 2.17)

Requirements: Docker.
To cross-build using QEMU (for aarch64/s390x/ppc64le), enable binfmt once:

docker run --privileged --rm tonistiigi/binfmt --install all

Build native architecture

./build_rg_manylinux2014.sh

Cross-build via QEMU

ARCH=x86_64 PLATFORM=linux/amd64   ./build_rg_manylinux2014.sh
ARCH=aarch64 PLATFORM=linux/arm64   ./build_rg_manylinux2014.sh
ARCH=s390x   PLATFORM=linux/s390x   ./build_rg_manylinux2014.sh
ARCH=ppc64le PLATFORM=linux/ppc64le ./build_rg_manylinux2014.sh

Tune CPU baseline

CPU_BASELINE=x86-64-v2 ./build_rg_manylinux2014.sh

---

🍎 macOS (universal2)

./build_rg_macos_universal.sh

• Targets macOS 10.13+ (x86_64) and 11.0+ (arm64).
• Uses lipo to merge slices.

---

🪟 Windows (x86_64)

Run in Developer PowerShell for VS (so cl.exe is available):

.\build_rg_windows_x64.ps1

---

⚙️ Build Behavior (All Platforms)

• Release mode with LTO=fat, codegen-units=1, panic=abort
• Bundled static PCRE2 (PCRE2_SYS_BUNDLED=1, PCRE2_SYS_STATIC=1)
• CPU baseline:
  • Linux x86_64 – x86-64 (override with CPU_BASELINE)
  • Other Linux – generic
  • macOS – x86-64 / generic
  • Windows – x86-64
• No -C lto in RUSTFLAGS; LTO handled via Cargo profile
