msys2 erro about xmr-stak-cpu HOT 1 CLOSED

You can actually compile with MSYS2, but painful!

1. Generate your make file with cmake . -G 'MSYS Makefiles'

1b. Edit crypto\cryptonight_aesni.h
Change :

#ifdef __GNUC__
#include 
static inline uint64_t _umul128(uint64_t a, uint64_t b, uint64_t* hi)
{
      unsigned __int128 r = (unsigned __int128)a * (unsigned __int128)b;
      *hi = r >> 64;
      return (uint64_t)r;
}
#define _mm256_set_m128i(v0, v1)  _mm256_insertf128_si256(_mm256_castsi128_si256(v1), (v0), 1)
#else
#include 
#endif // __GNUC__

to

#ifdef __GNUC__
#include 
extern "C"
{
   static inline uint64_t _umul128(uint64_t a, uint64_t b, uint64_t* hi)
   {
      unsigned __int128 r = (unsigned __int128)a * (unsigned __int128)b;
      *hi = r >> 64;
      return (uint64_t)r;
   }
}
#define _mm256_set_m128i(v0, v1)  _mm256_insertf128_si256(_mm256_castsi128_si256(v1), (v0), 1)
#else
#include 
#endif // __GNUC__

2. Edit CMakeFiles\xmr-stak-cpu.dir\flags.make:
   CXX_FLAGS = -msse2 -maes -O3 -DNDEBUG -std=c++11 -fpermissive

This tells gcc to overlook what it perceived as error

3. Append:
   -lws2_32 -lgdi32
   at the end of CMakeFiles\xmr-stak-cpu.dir\link.txt file

4. $ mingw32-make.exe -j2

Enjoy!
