Static boost libraries cannot be found after compilation in ppc64le architecture #351

viniciusferrao · 2021-01-28T18:16:34Z

I've read Brief overview section and do understand basic concepts. Yes
I've read F.A.Q. section and there is no solution to my problem there. Yes
I've read Code of Conduct, I promise to be polite and will do my best at being constructive. Yes
I've read Reporting bugs section carefully. Yes
I've checked that all the hunter_add_package/find_package API used by me in the example is the same as in documentation. Yes
I'm using latest Hunter URL/SHA1. Yes

I've created SSCCE reproducing the issue:

# CMakeLists.txt

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5)

include(cmake/cable/bootstrap.cmake)

include(CableBuildInfo)
include(CableBuildType)
include(CableToolchains)
include(HunterGate)

hunter_add_package(ethash)

Here is the log until first error reported by Hunter, option HUNTER_STATUS_DEBUG is ON:

https://pastebin.com/6DvFUn3c

I've checked that the first error in logs IS NOT external.build.failed. Yes

I'm building on Linux (RHEL 8.3)
I'm using CMake from snapd (snapcraft.io)
CMake version: 3.19.3

I'm not using toolchain (I think...)

I'm using the next command line on generate step:

cmake .. -DHUNTER_STATUS_DEBUG=ON -DHUNTER_NO_TOOLCHAIN_ID_RECALCULATION=OFF

I've found this while trying to compile nsfminer and first reported the issue there: https://github.com/no-fee-ethereum-mining/nsfminer/issues/30

But after some testing I think this may be a Hunter issue.

If there's something additional to be made please let me know. I've done the best to report this correctly. In the paste there's also the output of CMakeOutput.log.

Thanks!

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

Interesting, I never tried compiling on ppc but the whole point is for Hunter to not care about the architecture it is compiling for. Thanks for the bug report! We'll have to investigate.

@Bjoe any ideas, since you were recently in the Boost Hunter files?

Bjoe · 2021-02-01T14:29:38Z

It's using the FindBoost from hunter see .hunter/_Base/Download/Hunter/0.23.291/4f57243/Unpacked/cmake/find/FindBoost.cmake. This FindBoost is outdated as I said. See also my comment in issue #141

Can you please try with enabled: USE_CONFIG_FROM_BOOST=ON See Boost-filesystem-useBoostConfig in git -> https://github.com/cpp-pm/hunter/tree/master/examples/Boost-filesystem-useBoostConfig or see in the hunter doc: https://hunter.readthedocs.io/en/latest/packages/pkg/Boost.html#cmake-options

Btw. If you are using USE_CONFIG_FROM_BOOST=ON and you didn't need system and thread in your project, you can remove it. USE_CONFIG_FROM_BOOST=ON is build and add automatically the dependencies.

viniciusferrao · 2021-02-01T15:48:10Z

Hi @Bjoe thanks for the tip. I tried what you've said but It was a no go. Please correct me if I've done something wrong:

Added the following do CMakeLists.txt:

HunterGate(
    URL "https://github.com/cpp-pm/hunter/archive/v0.23.293.tar.gz"
    SHA1 "e8e5470652db77149d9b38656db2a6c0b7642693"
    LOCAL
)
set(Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS ON)

And invoked cmake with: cmake .. -DUSE_CONFIG_FROM_BOOST=ON -DHUNTER_STATUS_DEBUG=ON -DHUNTER_NO_TOOLCHAIN_ID_RECALCULATION=OFF

Same error was generated.

Bjoe · 2021-02-02T13:05:00Z

@viniciusferrao No, sorry this is wrong how you add this configuration. You must set this Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS=ON on hunter_config(), like this example:

hunter_config(Boost
    VERSION ${HUNTER_Boost_VERSION}
    CMAKE_ARGS USE_CONFIG_FROM_BOOST=ON
)

See documentation about hunter_config() here https://hunter.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reference/user-modules/hunter_config.html

viniciusferrao · 2021-02-02T22:42:58Z

Hi @Bjoe thanks again, but I'm too amateurish with CMake and Hunter.

The example on the pointed reference is a broken link, the Wiki page appears to be removed: https://github.com/ruslo/hunter/wiki/example.custom.config.id; I tried to find this page but I was unsuccessful.

I've trying adding the setting on CMakeFiles.txt but that was stupid.

After I've tried to add the settings to: ./cmake/Hunter/config.cmake:

[root@rhvpower nsfminer]# cat ./cmake/Hunter/config.cmake
hunter_config(CURL VERSION ${HUNTER_CURL_VERSION} CMAKE_ARGS HTTP_ONLY=ON CMAKE_USE_OPENSSL=OFF CMAKE_USE_LIBSSH2=OFF CURL_CA_PATH=none)
hunter_config(Boost
    VERSION ${HUNTER_Boost_VERSION}
    CMAKE_ARGS USE_CONFIG_FROM_BOOST=ON
)

But it seems to have no effect at all. The issue persisted. Is there anything else missing?

rbsheth · 2021-02-02T23:39:33Z

https://github.com/cpp-pm/gate#usage-custom-config

viniciusferrao · 2021-02-03T00:10:17Z

Alright guys. It worked.

After reading the page shared by @rbsheth I've done the following:

Keep the modifications on ./cmake/Hunter/config.cmake:

hunter_config(CURL VERSION ${HUNTER_CURL_VERSION} CMAKE_ARGS HTTP_ONLY=ON CMAKE_USE_OPENSSL=OFF CMAKE_USE_LIBSSH2=OFF CURL_CA_PATH=none)
hunter_config(Boost
    VERSION ${HUNTER_Boost_VERSION}
    CMAKE_ARGS USE_CONFIG_FROM_BOOST=ON
)

Only added LOCAL at the end of HunterGate on CMakeFiles.txt:

HunterGate(
    URL "https://github.com/cpp-pm/hunter/archive/v0.23.293.tar.gz"
    SHA1 "e8e5470652db77149d9b38656db2a6c0b7642693"
    LOCAL
)

Accordingly to the documentation the LOCAL keyword searches for ${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/cmake/Hunter/config.cmake; which is where I've done the changes.

So this is solved now.

The remaining questions now are:

Is this an issue with the usage of Hunter and specifically Boost?
The upstream software have wrongly added Boost or this is a Hunter issue?
If the right way to compile the software is with the options shared by @Bjoe we may need some documentation regarding this?

Thanks!

Bjoe · 2021-02-03T15:00:36Z

@rbsheth As you see again.... we should use as default the boost config from boost ....

rbsheth · 2021-02-08T18:04:38Z

@Bjoe should we add that to the boost hunter.cmake?

Bjoe · 2021-02-09T12:26:39Z

@rbsheth I tried and it works, but read my #316 (comment) ... My next idea/try is, set the cmake policy in the BoostConfig.cmake in boost .... so need to patch boost sources again and if this works, then I will bug report this to the boost project.

Hopefully I found some time for this .... I'm very busy and unfortunately there are still pull request open #122 #168 #173 from me where I like to work on and finishing this ...

viniciusferrao · 2021-03-01T02:05:56Z

Hi guys, just as a curiosity. What will be the approach here? As today I have to keep a separate branch for a software that I use that relies on Hunter because the PR wasn't accepted.

I know that's my problem :)

Thanks all.

rbsheth · 2021-03-01T19:00:54Z

Which PR are you talking about? #154 was merged a while ago.

viniciusferrao · 2021-03-02T00:42:35Z

The PR I was referencing was on the software that I use that consumes Hunter. Sorry for the mess.

That's why I'm asking which approach will be done in this issue. If the option USE_CONFIG_FROM_BOOST=ON will be standard directly on Hunter or if this In fact should be done on the software consuming Hunter.

Thanks.

Bjoe · 2021-04-08T08:31:37Z

@viniciusferrao I would like to have as default USE_CONFIG_FROM_BOOST=ON in Hunter. But unfortunately it will break for example BoostProcess because it uses boost as depend library but the project is set cmake_minimum_version(3.0) see https://github.com/alamaison/boost-process/blob/f1a4eafbedfa277b9890c6bc01a44356f53acd7b/CMakeLists.txt#L6 and then the build got an IN_LIST error. This feature is used in the boost config module.

My idea, set the policy for IN_LIST in the boost config module (and maybe also create a bug report in boost).
Maybe I will find somehow some time to do this....

@viniciusferrao

Thanks for the repply.
I already have LOCAL after the SHA1. But I still get these errors.
I was using a hunter v0.23.6 before. As soon as I change it to hunter v0.23.300 which is the latest (I had to change as V0.23.6 was using bintray for boost library and bintray.com is shut down for good). So I switched to hunter v0.23.300. And then I get this issue when I try to build.

You mentioned this in the #351 (comment) reply

Keep the modifications on ./cmake/Hunter/config.cmake:
hunter_config(CURL VERSION ${HUNTER_CURL_VERSION} CMAKE_ARGS HTTP_ONLY=ON CMAKE_USE_OPENSSL=OFF CMAKE_USE_LIBSSH2=OFF CURL_CA_PATH=none)
hunter_config(Boost
VERSION ${HUNTER_Boost_VERSION}
CMAKE_ARGS USE_CONFIG_FROM_BOOST=ON
)

Where is the ./cmake/Hunter/config.cmake? Do I have to enter these changes?

NeroBurner · 2022-09-06T14:12:38Z

is this issue still valid with the latest Hunter? If so, what would be needed to resolve the open issue?

viniciusferrao · 2022-09-08T18:10:11Z

Nero I must check this. But I'm on vacation right now. I can check this on the next week.

Thanks.

I no longer have the same exactly source code, but I was able to still reproduce the issue (I think).

It seems to be the same issue, Hunter is able to build Boost successfully but it fails to link it.

Is anything else that I can do or provide?

Thanks.

NeroBurner · 2022-09-16T06:47:14Z

Mysterious. The error is at Boost::system build time as far as I can see

Could you try to build the Boost example directly from hunter? Just to be sure we have the same CMake config to work with

git clone --recursive https://github.com/cpp-pm/hunter.git
cd hunter/examples/Boost-chrono-useBoostConfig/
cmake -H. -Bbuild -DHUNTER_ENABLED=ON -DHUNTER_STATUS_DEBUG=ON |& tee build.log

Afterwards please upload the build.log file so we can do some data forensics ;)

viniciusferrao · 2022-09-16T19:48:13Z

Hi @NeroBurner, Boost-chrono-useBoostConfig seems to have worked as expeceted. But the issue is with Boost-system. So I've compiled both, and Boost-system failed with what seems to be the same issue.

I'm attaching both logs.

Thanks.

build-Boost-chrono-useBoostConfig.log
build-Boost-system.log

NeroBurner · 2022-09-17T19:25:10Z

The BoostConfig.cmake file doesnt find the boost system Library. Can you show me what is installed in the library path

I think it should be this path, according to your logs

ls /root/hunter/_Base/xxxxxxx/19404f8/314d74e/Install/lib

viniciusferrao · 2022-09-18T16:13:39Z

There you go:

[root@rhvpower lib]# pwd
/root/hunter/_Base/xxxxxxx/19404f8/314d74e/Install/lib
[root@rhvpower lib]# ls -R
.:
cmake  libboost_system-mt-d-p64.a  libboost_system-mt-p64.a

./cmake:
Boost

./cmake/Boost:
BoostConfig.cmake  BoostConfigVersion.cmake

NeroBurner · 2022-09-18T18:01:13Z

so the library is definitely there. Next step in debugging :)

please add the config.cmake from examples/Boost-chrono-useBoostConfig https://github.com/cpp-pm/hunter/blob/master/examples/Boost-chrono-useBoostConfig/config.cmake to the examples/Boost-system example and try it again.

There should be no FindBoost.cmake calls in the logs, rather the BoostConfig.cmake file should be used

Please report back if it works, and add the logs from the Boost-system example cmake call with the added config.cmake

viniciusferrao · 2022-09-18T19:31:24Z

Hmmm it's working now.

config.cmake:

hunter_config(Boost
    VERSION ${HUNTER_Boost_VERSION}
    CMAKE_ARGS USE_CONFIG_FROM_BOOST=ON
)

CMakeLists.txt (I've added the set line):

# Copyright (c) 2013, Ruslan Baratov
# All rights reserved.

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.0)

set(Boost_DEBUG ON CACHE BOOLEAN "")
set(TESTING_CONFIG_OPT FILEPATH ${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/config.cmake)

# Emulate HunterGate:
# * https://github.com/hunter-packages/gate
include("../common.cmake")

project(download-boost)

hunter_add_package(Boost COMPONENTS system)
find_package(Boost CONFIG REQUIRED system)

add_executable(foo foo.cpp)
target_link_libraries(foo PUBLIC Boost::system)

file(GLOB_RECURSE boost_configs "${BOOST_ROOT}/*/BoostConfig.cmake")
list(LENGTH boost_configs len)
if(NOT len GREATER "0")
  message(FATAL_ERROR "Not even one *Config: ${boost_configs}")
endif()

And finally the attached build.log:
build.log

Thanks.

NeroBurner · 2022-09-18T20:26:30Z

wohoo it works! You're welcome

viniciusferrao · 2022-09-18T20:35:40Z

Hi @NeroBurner thanks!

Just let me ask something. Isn’t the case to also update the Hunter examples? Specifically Boost-system to reflect the changes made on the last message?

NeroBurner · 2022-09-18T20:56:33Z

In this case no, I don't think so. We already have examples/Boost-chrono-useBoostConfig to test the useBoostConfig parameter (as an alteration to the examples/Boost-chrono one). So adding a examples/Boost-system-useBoostConfig would be redundant

I'd personally like to set the default of USE_BOOST_CONFIG=ON. Do you know if the BoostProcess error is fixed mentioned by @Bjoe in #351 (comment) ?

@rbsheth do you have an opinion about this? As I think the OFF default will regularly lead to confusion with hunter and Boost with users
