Just leave this with me for now. I want to get my GDB going :-)

bobsummerwill commented 8 years ago

See https://github.com/doublethinkco/webthree-umbrella-cross/releases/tag/untagged-47082f0f12989d1eedc2

That is a cross-build WITHOUT our edits to libweb3core. It just has Gav's attempted fixes for the same.

I am just curious to see if that fails at boot with the static constructor issue, or whether JUST his changes have fixed that. If he doesn't have enough fixes then I will refresh our libweb3core fork, and re-apply my other fixes in addition to his.

bobsummerwill commented 8 years ago

Please can you try this @anthony-cros, and we'll see where we are:

https://github.com/doublethinkco/webthree-umbrella-cross/releases/tag/eth.151125175856.tgz

This is a vanilla eth, with Gav's fixes rather than mine.

I want to see if his fixes are sufficient, or whether we need to fork again and start fixing the C++.

anthony-cros commented 8 years ago

for good measure, I'm linking to the error I get on this ticket as well (https://gist.github.com/anthony-cros/530a1807d9778a8295cf)

bobsummerwill commented 8 years ago

Carsten Munk told me today that Tizen is armel, so maybe we've up the wrong path with armhf (hence your no-info failure), and we need to flip back to armel for Tizen, but with "good" names etc, rather than those default ones, which it seems to be choking on.

anthony-cros commented 8 years ago

see messages at https://github.com/doublethinkco/go-ethereum-cross/issues/1#issuecomment-160994715

bobsummerwill commented 8 years ago

So yeah, the 'Tizen is armel' was incorrect.

We just need to get the armhf to be 'correct' by tweaking the crosstool-NG close enough to the ELF header info you got from the ls on your TM1

anthony-cros commented 8 years ago

yes, Tag_FP_arch: VFPv3 is the telltale sign of armhf, right (that was from /bin/ls on the tizen phone)?

bobsummerwill commented 8 years ago

Correct, @anthony-cros!

bobsummerwill commented 8 years ago

NOTE - Tizen ships with an even older version of GCC again :-) The Gear S2 smartwatch comes with libstdc++.so.6.0.16, which is the version which shipped with GCC 4.6.1, released in April 2010. Running the armel binaries generated with the GCC 5.2.1 cross-compiler which we are now using here results in binaries which we cannot run on the Gear S2. That results in the following runtime errors:

 ./eth: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.21' not found (required by ./eth)
 ./eth: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.19' not found (required by ./eth)
 ./eth: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.17' not found (required by ./eth)
 ./eth: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.18' not found (required by

So it looks like I am going to have to specifically use an older sysroot to get something which can work on the Gear S2. I am unable SDB connect to any of my other Tizen devices right now, so cannot verify if they have slightly newer runtime libraries. The SDK does also have a GCC-4.9 toolchain, which perhaps was included in the Tizen 2.4 runtime? Using a different sysroot will involve getting GCC 4.6 headers and libraries onto the build machine, and then getting -sysroot into the CC and CXX command-lines, probably by creating a shell script which wraps the actual GCC binaries, as per the example below.

See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2977182/alternatives-to-the-sysroot-switch-of-gcc

rzr commented 6 years ago

An other option would be to try Tizen:Yocto profile, it's not updated since age but you could try armhf architecture.

bobsummerwill commented 5 years ago

Hey @rzr! How are you doing, my friend? I hope to make it to FOSDEM 2020. Will you be there?

I still want to get this stuff working, 4 years later. I recently bought a Galaxy Watch Active and would be delighted if I could finally get Ethereum working on it - just for my own "itch scratching".

Do you know that version of Tizen is on that device? Or what the GLIBCXX version would be?

I suspect that much of this stuff which was so painful back in 2015 will "just work" now, because it will be on newer GCC and GLIBC versions.

bobsummerwill commented 5 years ago

Tizen 4, it seems!

rzr commented 5 years ago

Hi @bobsummerwill , yes I might attend fosdem again

have you considered to check new dot net tizen api from tizen 5 and tv platform ?

anthony-cros commented 5 years ago

wow, this brings back memories :)

phonikg commented 5 years ago

Doesn't it though?! ;)

We were so young and so naive...

bobsummerwill commented 5 years ago

Well, I don't know that I agree with that, @anthony-cros!

It was early days, that is for sure, and it has been a long journey which is still ongoing, but we have moved forward a huge amount in the last 4 years.

Do you know that I am the Executive Director of the https://etccooperative.org now? On the "dark side".

Here is what we are up to ... https://slideslive.com/38920077/what-is-happening-with-ethereum-classic

Paging @martinbrook! Are you going to FOSDEM? I hope so, and to see you there.

phonikg commented 5 years ago

Basically Bob is Darth Summerwill now.

@rzr "have you considered to check new dot net tizen api from tizen 5 and tv platform ?"

Yes, though I want to run it on my smartwatch (as I did four years ago), so am only really interested in the Tizen versions which are shipped in real world devices.

Geth worked on the Gear S2 in November 2015 (thanks to Peter's work on xgo), but we never go the end of the line on eth because of the ancient GLIBC runtime:

https://doublethink.co/2015/11/13/porting-ethereum-geth-running-on-samsung-gear-s2-smartwatch-eth-coming-soon/

So I think a sensible new set of platforms, if I pick up this work again would be to replace this set of targets with:

https://github.com/doublethinkco/cpp-ethereum-cross/blob/master/README.md

Drop Tizen smartphones, which are discontinued, and I don't really care about Tizen TV.
Is the TM1 still the only official Tizen reference device, @rzr?
Add newer Galaxy Watch devices, with my target now being my Galaxy Watch Active (though Gear S2 as well would be good if possible)
Drop Ubuntu Touch targets, which are discontinued.
Update SailfishOS targets to be only Sailfish C, Aqua Fish and Sailfish X for Sony Xperia X (I think I bought a Sailfish C, but I don't have the other devices and probably would not buy them myself, but maybe @martinbrook or other porters could do the testing?) . I assume there are still closed source parts to the UI, so maybe I don't even care about that either? Is Nemo Mobile still alive?
Android and iOS still make sense, of course - both mobile and smartwatch variants
Maemo (N900) and MeeGo (N9) would still be deeply satisfying and whimsical ports to do, but, like Tizen might just not be practical given the ancient runtimes.
On the SBCs, it isn't worth bothering with the armv6 Raspberry Pi family anymore
Looks like Intel Edison was discontinued, and I don't think I care about the NUC either, or indeed about any Intel chips. They lost the battle entirely, on all fronts - mobile, wearable, SBC, IoT.
I need to add Pine64 stuff, which has emerged since 2015 - ROCK64, ROCKPro64, PinePhone. You must have one, eh, @martinbrook?
And I suppose that I should add the Purism5 too, though it is obviously a dead-end. Also, no way I am paying $699 for the pleasure of getting that working. But if somebody else has one and we can verify that then fair enough.

bobsummerwill commented 5 years ago

@phonikg Pretty much!

Afri launched the Mordor testnet at ETC Summit. I really want to get a MolochDAO instance for ETC infrastructure funding. And we could have a test-instance "Moloch-on-Mordor".

bobsummerwill commented 5 years ago

ETC obviously a better home for https://spankchain.com/ too!

martinbrook commented 4 years ago

Hi all, 4 years, where does the time go. Been head down in build systems over the last few years and not touched any embedded stuff. Catch up at FOSDEM if I make it.
