Exception when using @CFunction on Windows

Montura commented 2 years ago

Describe the issue

There is a problem with calling native code corresponing the java functuion annotated @CFunction on Windows platform.

Accrording to CInterfaceTutorial.java and the cinterfecetutorail.c

@CContext(NativeTest.CApiDirectives.class)
public class NativeTest {

  static class CApiDirectives implements CContext.Directives { ...}

  @CFunction
  public native static int testC();
}

extern "C" int testC();

int main() {
  testC(); // crashes with exception on Windows
}

Steps to reproduce the issue Please include both build steps as well as run steps

Use GraalVM CE Build v22.1.0 on Apr 26
git clone https://github.com/Montura/graal-native-test
https://github.com/Montura/graal-native-test#steps-to-reproduce

Describe GraalVM and your environment:

GraalVM version release v22.1.0
JDK major version: 11
OS and arch:
- os: Windows 10 Pro 19044.1826, arch: x64 (Intel Core i3-8100)
- os: Linux Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS, arch: x64 (Intel Core i5-2410M)
- os: Mac OS Big Sur Version 11.5.2, arch: x64 (Intel Core i9)

More details

on Linux and Mac Os works fine:

Expected output (digits are not valuable):

OS name: mac os
JNI time = 20
C time = 6
dummy time = 6
native time = 1

on Windows

Actual output (digits are not valuable):

OS name: windows 10
JNI time = 20

"Exception thrown at 0x00007FFA0F6F0000 (GraalSample.dll) in native.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation executing location 0x00007FFA0F6F0000."

Possible cause

I dumped symbols from shared library for Mac, Linux and Windows:
- Mac and Linux are export undefined symbol testC: symbols_mac and symbols_linux
- Windows can't export undefined symbol testC : symbols_windows
  - I used "/FORCE:UNRESOLVED" linker option to build shared lib for Windows (so the symbol testC isn't imported)
  - I tried "/OPT:NOREF" and "/INCLUDE:testC", but it doens't help me at all.
    - GetProcAddress and dlsym proved my assumption: load_functions.cpp

It's irrelevant, there is an issue with shared library linkage on Windows. dll export undefined symbols with "/FORCE:UNRESOLVED" is ignored if the entry point symbol is unresolved.
