Given `main.go`:
package main
import _ "os/user"
func main() {}
Compiling it to linux/arm64:
$ CGO_CFLAGS='-O0' GOOS=linux GOARCH=arm64 CGO_ENABLED=1 CC="zig cc -target aarch64-linux-gnu.2.28" go build main.go
Results in this error:
runtime/cgo(.text): unknown symbol memset in callarm64
runtime/cgo(.text): unknown symbol memset in callarm64
runtime/cgo(.text): relocation target memset not defined
In the midst of intermediate compilations files we can see this commmand:
ld.lld -o _cgo_.o <...> /tmp/go-build206961058/b043/_x009.o <...> ~/.cache/zig/.../libcompiler_rt.a <...> ~/.cache/.../libc.so.6
`_x009.o` needs memset:
$ readelf -Ws ./b043/_x009.o | grep memset
22: 0000000000000000 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT UND memset
Both `libcompiler_rt.a` and `libc.so.6` provide it:
$ readelf -Ws ~/.cache/zig/.../libcompiler_rt.a | grep memset
870: 0000000000000000 318 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 519 memset
$ readelf -Ws ~/.cache/zig/.../libc.so.6 | grep -w memset
476: 000000000001d34c 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 7 memset@@GLIBC_2.2.5
Since `libcompiler_rt.a` comes before libc in the linker line, the
resulting `_cgo_.o` still links to a weak, unversioned memset:
$ readelf -Ws ./b043/_cgo_.o | grep -w memset
40: 000000000022c07c 160 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 14 memset
719: 000000000022c07c 160 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 14 memset
Since the final linking step is done by Golang's linker, it does not
know of `libcompiler_rt.a`, and fails to link with the error message
above. However, Go linker does recognize memset from glibc. If we
specify an `-lc` equivalent before the `libcompiler_rt.a`, it will link
to memset from libc:
$ readelf -Wa ./b043/_x009.o |grep memset
14: 0000000000000000 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT UND memset@GLIBC_2.17 (2)
157: 0000000000000000 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT UND memset@GLIBC_2.17
... and then `main.go` will compile+link successfully.
Why doesn't Go linker take memset from glibc? An educated guess: Go
determines whether to link with glibc from what the program asks (I
presume `.dynsym`). Since `memset` is no longer attributed to glibc, Go
skips linking to glibc altogether.
Bonus question: curious why `-O0` is necessary? Because when
optimizations are enabled (the default), the C compiler replaces
`memset` function call with plain `stp` instructions (on aarch64).
We definitely want a shared lock on a cache hit. Without this, we get a
deadlock when Zig is asked to compile the same C source file multiple
times as part of the same compilation.
This is a partial revert of 8ccb9a6ad3.

- C compilation flows didn't hold an exclusive lock on the cache manifest file when writing to it in all cases
- On windows, explicitly unlock the file lock before closing it
Before this commit, I observe a crash from this abiSize call because the
element type is a struct that is not yet resolved. This is triggered by
running the behavior tests with -ofmt=c -target x86_64-windows.
Closes#7484. Right now for UEFI targets an alignment
of 32 is being used for no reason other than support
a rare bytecode. As this is far from the standard case,
removing this alignment and using the default one,
as most toolchains do, should be the desired behavior.
There was no check for linker errors after flushing,
which meant that if the link failed the build would
continue and try to copy the non-existant exe, and
also write the manifest as if it had succeeded.
Also adds parsing of lld output, which is surfaced at the
end of the compilation with the other errors instead
of via stderr
* point to init part of field delc when that's where the error occurs
* update test to reflect fixed error message
* only lookup source location in case of error
These parameters are only ever needed when `std.builtin` is out of sync
with the compiler in which case panicking is the only valid operation
anyways. Removing them causes a domino effect of functions no longer
needing a `src` and/or a `block` parameter resulting in handling
compilation errors where they are actually meaningful becoming simpler.
* Add tagName to Value which behaves like @tagName.
* Add hashUncoerced to Value as an alternative to hash when we want to
produce the same hash for value that can coerce to each other.
* Hash owner_decl instead of module_fn in Sema.instantiateGenericCall
since Module.Decl.Index is not affected by ASLR like *Module.Fn was,
and also because GenericCallAdapter.eql was already doing this.
* Use Value.hashUncoerced in Sema.instantiateGenericCall because
GenericCallAdapter.eql uses Value.eqlAdvanced to compare args, which
ignores coersions.
* Add revealed missing cases to Value.eqlAdvanced.
Without these changes, we were breaking the hash contract for
monomorphed_funcs, and were generating different hashes for values that
compared equal. This resulted in a 0.2% chance when compiling
self-hosted of producing a different output, which depended on
fingerprint collisions of hashes that were affected by ASLR. Normally,
the different hashes would have resulted in equal checks being skipped,
but in the case of a fingerprint collision, the truth would be revealed
and the compiler's behavior would diverge.
Empirically, this `AutoHashMapUnmanaged` -> `AutoArrayHashMapUnmanaged`
change fixes all non-determinism in `ReleaseFast` build artifacts.
Closes#12183
