alpine-v8-lib build issues

[smebberson]

@AlexMasterov, thanks for making your v8-lib script open source! I can't get it to build though, I did a copy and paste into a Dockerfile and received the following error:

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-alpine-linux-musl/5.3.0/../../../../x86_64-alpine-linux-musl/bin/ld.gold: fatal error: /tmp/v8/out/native/obj.target/third_party/icu/libicuuc.so: Not supported
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
third_party/icu/icuuc.target.native.mk:413: recipe for target '/tmp/v8/out/native/obj.target/third_party/icu/libicuuc.so' failed
make[1]: *** [/tmp/v8/out/native/obj.target/third_party/icu/libicuuc.so] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/v8/out'
Makefile:314: recipe for target 'native' failed
make: *** [native] Error 2

As mentioned the Dockerfile is an exact copy and paste of yours. For what it is worth, I'm running this from a Vagrant vm using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS:

• docker-compose version 1.7.0, build 0d7bf73
• Docker version 1.12.0, build 8eab29e

Do you get that error?

[AlexMasterov]

Thank you for your interest. Try to increase the RAM-memory on Vagrant (2048 is fine).

I tried to do automated build. The logs looks fine, but the build has timed out..

[smebberson]

@AlexMasterov. Thanks for getting back to me.

So, I upgraded the RAM:

vagrant:/vagrant$ free
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:       2050100    1846052     204048       6376      92348    1297556

But I'm still getting the same error?

  SOLINK(target) /tmp/v8/out/native/obj.target/third_party/icu/libicuuc.so

I had a look at the log on your automated build, and you're right, it gets past this step no problems. Do you have any ideas on what else it might be?

[AlexMasterov]

@smebberson I had a strange problem with heavy steps compile when the VM has enough resources. And logs were useless.

Try to remove a job key from make command (same problem with resources). Try FROM alpine:edge (I have a difference with the accumulation of resources). Try without docker-compose: docker build -t alpine-v8-lib .

If you want, I can share a ready image with the latest V8 (32 Mb) or just the archive with libraries (26 Mb).

[AlexMasterov]

Sorry, but I can't reproduce the problem :(

VirtualBox     5.1.2 (i7-4770K, 8 Gb)
Vagrant        1.8.5 (cpus: 4, ram: 2048, swap: 1024, Debian)
docker         1.12.0, build Thu Jul 28 21:40:59 2016
docker-compose 1.8.0, build 94f7016

Try alpine-v8-lib_5.4.329.tar (30 Mb)

docker load -i alpine-v8-lib_5.4.329.tar

[smebberson]

@AlexMasterov, thanks for your input. I'll play around with a few things (including a refresh of the VM) and see what I can get happening. So fragile!

Thanks for the archive :)

I'll get back to you here with what I find.

[smebberson]

Okay, I got it to build. I did the following:

• Removed binutils-gold from the package list.
• Added export GYP_DEFINES="linux_use_gold_flags=0".

Everything builds :)

[AlexMasterov]

Force to use the system-wide binutils during compilation v8

I forgot about that :) Interesting..
