arm64: /usr/bin/ld.gold: error: Stub is too far away, try a smaller value for '--stub-group-size'. The current value is 0x7ffbffc. #3433

I am hitting linking errors on Fedora aarch64 when building HLS 1.9 for Fedora for ghc9.0 and ghc9.2:

see https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/petersen/haskell-language-server/monitor/ (edit: plus https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/petersen/haskell-language-server/build/5197512/)

Your environment

Fedora Linux

Steps to reproduce

Basically using cabal install but you can see the exact steps: https://github.com/fedora-haskell/haskell-language-server/blob/main/haskell-language-server.spec#L409

Expected behaviour

HLS 1.9 to build and link on aarch64

Actual behaviour

Linking fails with many:

/usr/bin/ld.gold: error: Stub is too far away, try a smaller value for '--stub-group-size'. The current value is 0x7ffbffc.

Debug information

Build logs are available starting from the above link.

Has anyone else hit something like this before? I have been building with dynamic False since 1.6.

This could well be a ghc issue: feels like HLS pushes it limits...

juhp commented 1 year ago

With dynamic it seems okay, but that makes the packaging rather more complex...

Though I suppose dynamic is preferred for TH etc, right?

@juhp It is strongly recommended you build dynamically linked HLS releases as this works much better with projects with TH.

juhp commented 1 year ago

Okay, thanks - I have to consider this - it is a major packaging change.

Okay yes I see the official binaries are dynlinked. Me being lazy again...

I've tried to find evidence of this some time ago by getting a clear reproducer. But I couldn't.

Do you have any?

juhp commented 11 months ago

@hasufell I can reproduce 100% on Fedora aarch64 with ghc-9.4.8 and 9.6.3, if that is what you are asking

I'm asking if there's a clear reproducer that static HLS binaries cause TH issues, because I could not find any.
