[GHC] #9481: Linker does not correctly resolve symbols in previously loaded objects

#9481: Linker does not correctly resolve symbols in previously loaded objects -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: edsko | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.2 Keywords: | Operating System: Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Unknown/Multiple Difficulty: Unknown | Type of failure: Blocked By: | None/Unknown Related Tickets: | Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- '''Summary''': Given two object files (created from C files) A and B, where B refers to symbols defined in A, if we load B before A, calling `resolveObjs` after each object file, symbol resolution goes wrong. Full test case attached. '''Detailed description''': Consider {{{#!c // a.c #include <stdio.h> void defined_in_A() { printf("In A\n"); } }}} {{{#!c // b.c #include <stdio.h> void defined_in_A(); void defined_in_B() { printf("In B\n"); defined_in_A(); printf("In B\n"); } }}} and {{{#!hs {-# LANGUAGE ForeignFunctionInterface #-} module Main where import System.IO foreign import ccall "defined_in_B" defined_in_B :: IO () main :: IO () main = defined_in_B }}} and we use the GHC API to load the object files `a.o` and `b.o` (corresponding to `a.c` and `b.c`), calling `resolveObjs` after loading each object, and then load `Main` and call `Main.main`, everything works fine (the attached test case contains both `a.c`, `b.c` and `Main.hs` as well as the test program that calls into the GHC API). However, if we load `b.o` ''before'' `a.o`, things go wrong. When we load `b.o` and call `resolveObjs` then `resolveObjs` (quite reasonably) complains that {{{ lookupSymbol failed in relocateSection (relocate external) b.o: unknown symbol `_defined_in_A' }}} since we haven't loaded `a.o` yet. But when we then load `a.o` and call `resolveObjs` again, `resolveObjs` reports okay, but something goes wrong because the program subsequently segfaults. '''A successful run''' I took a closer look at what happens exactly. First, let's consider the test run where we load A before B, and everything works fine, and let's look at the precise code that we actually execute when `Main.main` does the foreign call to `defined_in_B`: {{{ # lldb Linkerbug Current executable set to 'Linkerbug' (x86_64). (lldb) breakpoint set -n ffi_call Breakpoint 1: where = Linkerbug`ffi_call + 29 at ffi64.c:421, address = 0x0000000102be2eed (lldb) run Process 92361 launched: 'Linkerbug' (x86_64) Loading object "a.o" symbol resolution ok Loading object "b.o" symbol resolution ok Loading Haskell module "Main.hs" ok Running "Main.main" Process 92361 stopped * thread #1: tid = 0x32048b, 0x0000000102be2eed Linkerbug`ffi_call(cif=0x000000010cc68500, fn=0x0000000104c6c210, rvalue=0x00007fff5fbff920, avalue=0x00007fff5fbff8c0) + 29 at ffi64.c:421, queue = 'com.apple.main-thread', stop reason = breakpoint 1.1 frame #0: 0x0000000102be2eed Linkerbug`ffi_call(cif=0x000000010cc68500, fn=0x0000000104c6c210, rvalue=0x00007fff5fbff920, avalue=0x00007fff5fbff8c0) + 29 at ffi64.c:421 (lldb) disassemble -c 14 -s fn 0x104c6c210: pushq %rbp 0x104c6c211: movq %rsp, %rbp 0x104c6c214: pushq %rbx 0x104c6c215: pushq %rax 0x104c6c216: leaq 0x1d(%rip), %rbx 0x104c6c21d: movq %rbx, %rdi 0x104c6c220: callq 0x104c6c3c8 0x104c6c225: xorl %eax, %eax 0x104c6c227: callq 0x104c6b210 0x104c6c22c: movq %rbx, %rdi 0x104c6c22f: addq $0x8, %rsp 0x104c6c233: popq %rbx 0x104c6c234: popq %rbp 0x104c6c235: jmpq 0x104c6c3c8 }}} This disassembly is the compiled code for B which, in order, does a call to `printf`, then to `defined_in_A`, and then back to `printf` (the last call is `jmpq` rather than `callq`: the C compiler did a tail call optimization). Let's make sure that this is actually true; the first call is a call to {{{ (lldb) disassemble -c 2 -s 0x104c6c3c8 0x104c6c3c8: jmpq *-0xe(%rip) 0x104c6c3ce: addb %al, (%rax) }}} which is an indirect jump to {{{ (lldb) memory read -f A -c 1 "0x104c6c3ce - 0xe" 0x104c6c3c0: 0x00007fff84fd5b9b libsystem_c.dylib`puts }}} to `puts`, okay, good. Seems an unnecessary level of indirection, but that's okay. The next call is to {{{ (lldb) disassemble -c 5 -s 0x104c6b210 0x104c6b210: pushq %rbp 0x104c6b211: movq %rsp, %rbp 0x104c6b214: leaq 0x6(%rip), %rdi 0x104c6b21b: popq %rbp 0x104c6b21c: jmpq 0x104c6b370 }}} which is the compiled code for `defined_in_A`, which should be just a call to `printf`. Let's confirm: {{{ (lldb) disassemble -c 2 -s 0x104c6b370 0x104c6b370: jmpq *-0xe(%rip) 0x104c6b376: addb %al, (%rax) (lldb) memory read -f A -c 1 "0x104c6b376 - 0xe" 0x104c6b368: 0x00007fff84fd5b9b libsystem_c.dylib`puts }}} Ok, all good. '''A failed run''' Now let's check what happens when we load the objects in the opposite order. The code that we execute is {{{ (lldb) disassemble -c 14 -s fn 0x104c6b210: pushq %rbp 0x104c6b211: movq %rsp, %rbp 0x104c6b214: pushq %rbx 0x104c6b215: pushq %rax 0x104c6b216: leaq 0x1d(%rip), %rbx 0x104c6b21d: movq %rbx, %rdi 0x104c6b220: callq 0x104c6b3c8 0x104c6b225: xorl %eax, %eax 0x104c6b227: callq 0x104c6c210 0x104c6b22c: movq %rbx, %rdi 0x104c6b22f: addq $0x8, %rsp 0x104c6b233: popq %rbx 0x104c6b234: popq %rbp 0x104c6b235: jmpq 0x104c6b556 }}} This immediately looks suspicious: the address of the `jmpq` (the second -- tail -- call to `printf`) is different from the first. The first `callq` is okay: {{{ (lldb) disassemble -c 2 -s 0x104c6b3c8 0x104c6b3c8: jmpq *-0xe(%rip) 0x104c6b3ce: addb %al, (%rax) (lldb) memory read -f A -c 1 "0x104c6b3ce - 0xe" 0x104c6b3c0: 0x00007fff84fd5b9b libsystem_c.dylib`puts }}} and the call to `defined_in_A`, as well as the code ''for'' `defined_in_A`, are both ok: {{{ (lldb) disassemble -c 5 -s 0x104c6c210 0x104c6c210: pushq %rbp 0x104c6c211: movq %rsp, %rbp 0x104c6c214: leaq 0x6(%rip), %rdi 0x104c6c21b: popq %rbp 0x104c6c21c: jmpq 0x104c6c370 (lldb) disassemble -c 2 -s 0x104c6c370 0x104c6c370: jmpq *-0xe(%rip) 0x104c6c376: addb %al, (%rax) (lldb) memory read -f A -c 1 "0x104c6c376 - 0xe" 0x104c6c368: 0x00007fff84fd5b9b libsystem_c.dylib`puts }}} However, that second call to `printf` (the `jmpq`) in `defined_in_B` is indeed wrong: it's jumping into nowhere: {{{ (lldb) memory read -c 8 0x104c6b556 0x104c6b556: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ........ }}} Note that somewhat surprisingly is it ''not'' the resolution of the symbol from `a.o` that is wrong; that ''does'' get resolved okay once we load `a.o`; rather, it is the jump to `puts` which is wrong (and then only the one of them). -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9481> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

This patch does these things: 1. use libtool to link to a static library in place of an executable (because on iOS the final link must be done in Xcode), 2. for packages, keep only the HS package libraries and throw out other options (because libtool doesn't accept them), 3. fail if you try to link a dynamic library on iOS because it isn't supported (not really needed but there for completeness). Note that there is a minor risk here, because in the normal case, the order of options passed to the linker is slightly different: The options relating to each dependent package are separated into three different kinds, but they're still in the same relative order per package. This should be perfectly OK. The name of "libtool" is hard-coded and can't be set by options. Is this OK? -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8127> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

#1477: ghci shouldn't link entire package -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: igloo | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: ⊥ Component: Runtime System | Version: 6.6.1 (Linker) | Resolution: wontfix | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by ezyang): * status: new => closed * failure: => None/Unknown * component: GHCi => Runtime System (Linker) * resolution: => wontfix Comment: This would cause major complications for GHCi, as you would need to somehow be able to load the other symbols lazily when you loaded a new library that actually needed them. Additionally, dynamic linking would have the same problem unless the platform supports lazy dynamic loading. The indicated solution is to split the package into three. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/1477#comment:4> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
