Seemingly fails to build on aarch64 Linux

[tux-linux]

Hello, I'm trying to build this on an Apple Silicon Mac with a Linux VM virtualized on it (Arch Linux ARM). I get the following error:

Error

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this state without impacting any branches by switching back to a branch. If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may do so (now or later) by using -c with the switch command. Example: git switch -c Or undo this operation with: git switch - Turn off this advice by setting config variable advice.detachedHead to false HEAD is now at 3e2d99d0 *sigh* INFO :: *** Generating

Any ideas ? Thanks a lot !

[NiLuJe]

You may have CFLAGS & co set in your env? Don't ;).

I'm also pretty sure you'll need to build w/ an older make version, and I don't recall if that's done automatically on those configs (if the glibc fails to build with a weird make job error, that'd be the reason).

FWIW, updating those is (still ;p) at the top of my TODO list, so I'll be playing along Soon(TM).

[NiLuJe]

(I'd also need much more context to say what's happening here, because I don't even know what this configure output is from ;)).

[NiLuJe]

And, while I can't think of anything that would be problematic on that front, I don't think anyone's ever tested those on any other host architecture than x86_64, so doing that on aarch64 is basically another potential source of random fun times.

Didn't you see the drop-down "Error" button in my issue ?

I did compile it once (summer 2021) on a Raspberry Pi 400 running Manjaro ARM, so there's probably a way around it ;)

PEBCAK, rofl. I expanded it, then failed to scroll down, then collapsed it and forgot all about it ;p.

(In my defense, it is 6AM ;D).

I didn't set anything previously but I'll check, thanks

[NiLuJe]

Yeah, looking at the full log (\o/), it definitely looks like a whole lot of stuff is set in the env.

[NiLuJe]

c.f., https://github.com/koreader/koxtoolchain/blob/97e4dcd6e9e20c90062038dc6e2fb18adc0da40d/refs/x-compile.sh#L218-L219

This isn't done in the koxtoolchain variant of the build scripts, but that's such a low hanging fruit that Il'l probably do it there too in the next round of updates ;).

[NiLuJe]

I don't recall if that's done automatically on those configs

If it isn't, doing that should be as simple as ticking make in the "Companion tools" section of the menuconfig (repo should be pinned to a commit old enough that the versions available are okay).

[tux-linux]

Issue seems to have disappeared after using fish or/and tmux to start the build process. Now I'm getting stuck at Building C library for over than 20 minutes and I don't really know what is going on. Here is the build log until I sent SIGTERM. (Too big for GitHub I think) http://pkgs-inkbox.duckdns.org:25560/misc/build.log.txt Thanks for your help!

Linking may be extra slow for some reason, but I see no reason to panic, I've rarely (if ever) seen a compiler/linker spin in the mud for nothing.

[NiLuJe]

Okay, repro'd here; it's a much sneakier side-effect of the make 4.4.x incompatibilities than the plain failure I was expecting...

Enabling using make 4.3 as the build make via the Companion tools config I mentioned earlier fixes it.

I'll deal with it one way or another when bumping the TCs, I guess...

[NiLuJe]

Random shell history dump, but, basically follow the script and do stuff at the menuconfig stage ;p.

Thanks, this worked (I think).

[NiLuJe]

Should no longer be an issue, ct-ng now enforces using make 4.3 on the affected versions.
