Subject: Guile-Git cross-compiled to i586-pc-gnu gets bytestructures wrong
Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2020 00:25:54 +0200

Hello!

You might have seen that ‘guix pull’ doesn’t work in your childhurd:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Updating channel 'guix' from Git repository at 'https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git'...
guix pull: error: Git error: invalid version 0 on git_proxy_options
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

This is due to an ABI breakage whereby the Guile-Git code
(cross-compiled from x86_64-linux) fills in the ‘fetch_opts’ member of
‘git_clone options’ offset by one word.

On closer inspection, the problem is:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
scheme@(git structs)> (bytestructure-descriptor-size (bs:struct `(("x" ,(bs:pointer uint8)) ("y" ,size_t))))
$20 = 12
scheme@(git structs)> %host-type
$21 = "i586-pc-gnu"
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Compare with the correct answer:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix environment --ad-hoc -C -s i686-linux guile guile-bytestructures  -- guile

[...]

scheme@(guile-user)> ,use(bytestructures guile)
scheme@(guile-user)> %host-type
$1 = "i686-unknown-linux-gnu"
scheme@(guile-user)> (bytestructure-descriptor-size (bs:struct `(("x" ,(bs:pointer uint8))("y" ,size_t))))
$2 = 8
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

More specifically, the size of ‘size_t’ is wrong, but pointer size is
right:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
scheme@(git structs)>  (bytestructure-descriptor-size size_t)
$27 = 8
scheme@(git structs)>  (bytestructure-descriptor-size uintptr_t )
$28 = 8
scheme@(git structs)>  (bytestructure-descriptor-size (bs:pointer uint8))
$29 = 4
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

‘numeric.scm’ in bytestructures reads:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define arch32bit? (cond-expand
                    (lp32  #t)
                    (ilp32 #t)
                    (else  #f)))

;; …

(define uintptr_t (if arch32bit?
                      uint32
                      uint64))

(define size_t uintptr_t)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

But (bytestructures guile numeric-data-model) has this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define data-model
  (if (= 4 (sizeof '*))
      (if (= 2 (sizeof int))
          'lp32
          'ilp32)
      (cond
       ((= 8 (sizeof int))  'ilp64)
       ((= 4 (sizeof long)) 'llp64)
       (else                'lp64))))

(cond-expand-provide
 (current-module)
 (list architecture data-model))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The problem is that the ‘cond-expand’ used to define ‘arch32bit?’ is a
expansion-time thing when (cross-)building Bytestructures itself, so
it’s incorrect from cross-building from 64-bit to 32-bit.

I believe that changing it to:

  (define arch32bit? (memq data-model '(ilp32 lp32)))

would fix it because then the test would happen at run time.

(Note that Guile-Git uses only the procedural layer of Bytestructures.
The syntactic layer is likely not cross-compilation-capable for similar
reasons.)

To be continued…

Thanks,
Ludo’.

I confirm that the attached patch for Bytestructures solves the problem
(running ‘guix pull’ in my childhurd :-)).

Let’s see whether it needs to be adapted for inclusion upstream.

Hey Ludo,

Nice catch! I guess we had the same issue when cross-compiling for armhf
from x86_64.

Yes, sure.

Hi Ludo,

Thanks for finding finding this bug and for the patch.

I'll try to include a portable version of the fix ASAP.  I should have
time for it tomorrow.

Hi again,

Could you please test whether bytestructures 1.0.8 fixes the issue?

Thank you!

Thanks for the prompt reply!  I tested 1.0.8 and it does not fix the
problem.

I think the problem might be that the ‘cond-expand-provide’ call might
affect a module that’s not the one tested in (eval '(cond-expand …) …).

Does that make sense?

Yes, you're right.  I've made another release (1.0.9), where I use

  (environment '(guile) '(bytestructures guile numeric-data-model))

for the 'base-environment' binding in case we're running on Guile.

It now gives me correct results locally (woe on me for not having
properly tested the previous one) so I think it should definitely work
when cross-compiling too, since the 'eval' is sure to be executed at
run-time and not compile-time...

Fingers crossed, I hope I don't waste your time this time!

1.0.9 seems to help my rather involved use case (Guix cross-compiled to
GNU/Hurd from x86_64-linux, then running ‘guix pull’, which depends on
Guile-Git, which uses Bytestructures) but it still eventually crashes:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

The problem may well be elsewhere though.

However, at the REPL I can no longer access the ‘numeric’ module:

Had you tested the same with your patch?  If it worked with your patch 
but doesn't work with 1.0.9 then I'll have to take another look I guess.

One shouldn't try to use (bytestructures body ...) as modules.  The 
files in that directory contain no module-related boilerplate at all, 
including imports, which is why in this case it complains about the lack 
of the binding 'environment'.

The module (bytestructures guile numeric) ought to work, although it 
doesn't contain the binding 'arch32bit?'.  Do you actually need that 
predicate, or was that just for demonstration?  The "right" way to test 
whether the predicate works correctly would be to check whether e.g. 
intptr_t equals int32 or int64 as per 'eq?'.

Oh right, that makes sense.  Apparently, all is good:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
scheme@(guix-user)> ,m (bytestructures guile numeric)          
scheme@(bytestructures guile numeric)> intptr_t
$2 = #<bytestructure-descriptor 0x5600e60>
scheme@(bytestructures guile numeric)> (eq? intptr_t int32)
$3 = #t
scheme@(bytestructures guile numeric)> (eq? intptr_t int64)
$4 = #f
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I’ll get more debugging info about the crash and will let you know if
Bytestructures is the culprit.  ;-)

Most likely, this crash is due to the use of new progress report feature
in (guix git).  If I arrange to not use it, clone the whole repo
proceeds without crashing.

Unfortunately I’m unable to get a usable backtrace once SIGILL has been
raised, be it by attaching to it (using
CRASHSERVER=/servers/crash-suspend), spawning it and crashing it from
gdb, or inspecting its core file.  At best I can see the backtrace of
the msg thread, nothing more:

(Would be nice to fix this debugging issue.  It looks like GDB fails to
interpret the thread state of suspended threads or something.)

Anyway, this crash could be due to a GC issue, in which case it would
not be Hurd-specific.  I could not reproduce it with i686-linux ‘guix’
though, and obviously not with x86_64 binaries either.
