#13091: Build broken on amd64 solaris 11 -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: kgardas | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.6.1 Component: Build System | Version: 8.0.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Solaris | Architecture: x86_64 Type of failure: Building GHC | (amd64) failed | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by jwhite): Yes, I suppose I should have said "fixes it for me". For more context, I'm building on SmartOS on a `base64 14.3.0` image (which is a bit old), and it has no toolchain installed by default, just the system linker in `/usr/bin/ld`. The toolchain I am using is gcc 4.7, installed from the pkgsrc package `gcc47-4.7.3nb6`. The compiler is installed as `/opt/local/bin/gcc` and the linker as `/opt/local/bin/gld`. I guess that's why `./configure` is picking up `/usr/bin/ld`. The bootstrap GHC is 7.10.3, itself bootstrapped from GHC 7.6.3 from pkgsrc package `ghc-7.6.3nb4`, both using `/usr/bin/ld`. Also, even though binutils is installed (pkgsrc `binutils-2.24nb3`), gcc is using `/usr/bin/ld`, not `/opt/local/bin/gld`: {{{ $ truss -af -t execve /opt/local/bin/gcc -o main main.c ... 74127: execve("/usr/bin/ld", 0x00470C20, 0x0046B1D0) argc = 28 74127: argv: /usr/bin/ld -R/opt/local/lib/ -Y 74127: P,/lib/amd64:/usr/lib/amd64:/opt/local/lib/ -Qy -o main 74127: /usr/lib/amd64/crt1.o /usr/lib/amd64/crti.o 74127: /usr/lib/amd64/values-Xa.o 74127: /opt/local/gcc47/lib/gcc/x86_64-sun-solaris2.11/4.7.3/crtbegin.o 74127: -L/opt/local/gcc47/lib/gcc/x86_64-sun-solaris2.11/4.7.3 74127: -L/opt/local/gcc47/lib/gcc/x86_64-sun- solaris2.11/4.7.3/../../../../x86_64-sun-solaris2.11/lib/amd64 74127: -L/opt/local/gcc47/lib/gcc/x86_64-sun- solaris2.11/4.7.3/../../../amd64 74127: -L/lib/amd64 -L/usr/lib/amd64 74127: -L/opt/local/gcc47/lib/gcc/x86_64-sun- solaris2.11/4.7.3/../../../../x86_64-sun-solaris2.11/lib 74127: -L/opt/local/gcc47/lib/gcc/x86_64-sun-solaris2.11/4.7.3/../../.. 74127: -R/opt/local/gcc47/x86_64-sun-solaris2.11/lib/amd64 74127: -R/opt/local/gcc47/lib/amd64 /var/tmp//ccPDaWlK.o -lgcc 74127: -lgcc_eh -lc -lgcc -lgcc_eh 74127: /opt/local/gcc47/lib/gcc/x86_64-sun-solaris2.11/4.7.3/crtend.o 74127: /usr/lib/amd64/crtn.o 74127: execve("/usr/bin/amd64/ld", 0x08047578, 0x080475EC) argc = 28 74127: argv: /usr/bin/ld -R/opt/local/lib/ -Y 74127: P,/lib/amd64:/usr/lib/amd64:/opt/local/lib/ -Qy -o main 74127: /usr/lib/amd64/crt1.o /usr/lib/amd64/crti.o 74127: /usr/lib/amd64/values-Xa.o 74127: /opt/local/gcc47/lib/gcc/x86_64-sun-solaris2.11/4.7.3/crtbegin.o 74127: -L/opt/local/gcc47/lib/gcc/x86_64-sun-solaris2.11/4.7.3 74127: -L/opt/local/gcc47/lib/gcc/x86_64-sun- solaris2.11/4.7.3/../../../../x86_64-sun-solaris2.11/lib/amd64 74127: -L/opt/local/gcc47/lib/gcc/x86_64-sun- solaris2.11/4.7.3/../../../amd64 74127: -L/lib/amd64 -L/usr/lib/amd64 74127: -L/opt/local/gcc47/lib/gcc/x86_64-sun- solaris2.11/4.7.3/../../../../x86_64-sun-solaris2.11/lib 74127: -L/opt/local/gcc47/lib/gcc/x86_64-sun-solaris2.11/4.7.3/../../.. 74127: -R/opt/local/gcc47/x86_64-sun-solaris2.11/lib/amd64 74127: -R/opt/local/gcc47/lib/amd64 /var/tmp//ccPDaWlK.o -lgcc 74127: -lgcc_eh -lc -lgcc -lgcc_eh 74127: /opt/local/gcc47/lib/gcc/x86_64-sun-solaris2.11/4.7.3/crtend.o 74127: /usr/lib/amd64/crtn.o 74125: Received signal #18, SIGCLD, in waitid() [default] 74125: siginfo: SIGCLD CLD_EXITED pid=74127 status=0x0000 74104: Received signal #18, SIGCLD, in waitid() [default] 74104: siginfo: SIGCLD CLD_EXITED pid=74125 status=0x0000 }}} So I don't think I'm in a position to test that right now (rebuilding all those toolchains on top of GNU binutils would take a very long time, I'm running this on a very slow VM). Regardless, I'm not sure `-m64` would be right here for GNU ld either. `-m` takes an `emulation` argument, and the valid values are given by {{{ $ ld -V GNU ld (GNU Binutils)2.24 Supported emulations: elf_x86_64_sol2 elf_x86_64 elf_i386_sol2 elf_i386_ldso elf_i386 elf_l1om elf_k1om }}} Maybe one of the first two is what's needed? Or perhaps it can just be omitted for GNU ld? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13091#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

I had to apply some patches : - to workaround the file locking problem (flock() missing on solaris) : * in ghc to catch the FileLockingNotSupported exception raised on solaris by GHC.IO.Handle.Lock * similar in cabal-install (which clones more or less the GHC code) * patch in filelock (used by stack) to refer to the file locking from GHC base - to have a working building process (the -optl-optl problem + ) - to include in stack where needed (in unix/Terminal.hsc) As file locking is made a no-op, concurrent acces to package db should be broken, but so far I didn't have any problem on my standalone solaris box. Some tests are failing, but most of it seems quite innocuous (mostly differences in output) but some are more preoccupying, yet it sort of works (test summary attached). The patches and building scripts are attached (for ghc, cabal-install, stack). As I'm not very experimented in this, I would be very interested to know if the tweaks I applied still make a workable version or if it is totally borked.
