Description Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2010-12-07 20:00:59 UTC
Description of problem:
libIlmThread.so.6 is missing -pthread at build (link time)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.0.2.fc14 and later.

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. build a package using ilmbase but not specially requiring -pthread directly
(like PerceptualDiff ).
  
Actual results:
The package FTBFS

Expected results:
It should have built

man sem_init seems to request either -lrt or -pthread, but the lastest seems better.

Comment 1 Rex Dieter 2010-12-07 21:10:03 UTC
I vaguely recall fixing this awhile back (f12?), and upstreamed the patch, but maybe this is new (or it got lost).

Comment 2 Rex Dieter 2010-12-07 21:18:10 UTC
In fairness here,
$ pkg-config --libs IlmBase
-pthread -lImath -lHalf -lIex -lIlmThread 

I take it the linked failure doesn't use pkg-config ?

Comment 3 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2010-12-07 21:29:32 UTC
The -pthread is needed at libIlmThread.so.6 link time creation as told by rpmlint on installed pacakge.
You can remove it from the IlmBase.pc it's wrong, (but harmless).

Comment 4 Rex Dieter 2010-12-07 21:44:17 UTC
OK, but arg...

I can confirm the build links the library using (on my f14/i686 box):

g++ -shared -nostdlib /usr/lib/gcc/i686-redhat-linux/4.5.1/../../../crti.o /usr/lib/gcc/i686-redhat-linux/4.5.1/crtbeginS.o  .libs/IlmThreadPool.o .libs/IlmThread.o .libs/IlmThreadSemaphore.o .libs/IlmThreadMutex.o .libs/IlmThreadPosix.o .libs/IlmThreadSemaphorePosix.o .libs/IlmThreadSemaphorePosixCompat.o .libs/IlmThreadMutexPosix.o  -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/tmp/kde-rdieter1/ilmbase-1.0.2/Iex/.libs ../Iex/.libs/libIex.so -L/usr/lib/gcc/i686-redhat-linux/4.5.1 -L/usr/lib/gcc/i686-redhat-linux/4.5.1/../../.. -lstdc++ -lm -lc -lgcc_s /usr/lib/gcc/i686-redhat-linux/4.5.1/crtendS.o /usr/lib/gcc/i686-redhat-linux/4.5.1/../../../crtn.o  -m32 -march=i686 -mtune=atom -pthread -pthread -Wl,-soname -Wl,libIlmThread.so.6 -o .libs/libIlmThread.so.6.0.0


(NOTE the -pthread's in there)
Yet, the resulting library still has undefined symbols. :(


Seems manually adding -lrt here makes a lib without undefined symbols, interesting.

Comment 5 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2010-12-07 21:45:38 UTC
Hum, I'm wrong. -ptread is right in the Libs: field of the .pc given that semaphore.h is used from the ilmbase API.


$ grep sem /usr/include/OpenEXR/*
...
IlmThreadSemaphore.h://	system-dependent counting semaphores
IlmThreadSemaphore.h:    #include <semaphore.h>
IlmThreadSemaphore.h:	mutable HANDLE _semaphore;
IlmThreadSemaphore.h:	// If the platform has Posix threads but no semapohores,
IlmThreadSemaphore.h:	struct sema_t
IlmThreadSemaphore.h:	mutable sema_t _semaphore;
IlmThreadSemaphore.h:	mutable sem_t _semaphore;

But this would need to be confirmed upstream. as not every

Now about the rpmlint issue, this is an upstream bug. The downside is that preload will fail to work in the case of missing-non-weak-symbol. So that's also a runtime issue for one of the ilmbase libs and is hidden by the build time workaround. (given that not all package may use IlmThreadSemaphore.h and requires -pthread at link time).

Weird, I've expected that -lrt was deprecated nowadays...

Comment 7 Rex Dieter 2010-12-07 21:54:11 UTC
seems -lpthread works too, I think that's what I used before.

then let the upstream poking commense.

Comment 8 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2010-12-07 21:59:20 UTC
While we are at it. Can you add INSTALL="install -p" to prevent timestamp changes while installing headers.

Thx

Comment 9 Rex Dieter 2010-12-07 22:02:09 UTC
Didn't think timestamp changes mattered much these days. ?

Regardless, if I make the suggested change (comment #7), then -pthread will get dropped from IlmBase.pc too.  maybe need both -pthread *and* explicit linkage with -lpthread when creating libIlmThread?

librt is already linked to libpthread so it's just more than enought.
ldd /lib64/librt.so.1 
 linux-vdso.so.1 =>  (0x00007fff2d7ff000)
 libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x0000003299000000)
 libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x0000003fd6600000)
 /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x0000003298c00000)

I would have expected -pthread would imply linking to the required library.
It could be a compiler issue.

About timestamp, it's more valuable information to have the last commit date of the header than the time when it was packaged I guess.

Comment 11 Rex Dieter 2010-12-08 15:18:50 UTC
As pointed out on -devel list,

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25460
-pthread should have priority over -nostdlib -> CLOSED INVALID

Ie, this will affect any g++ libtool-using app/pkg generating shlibs.

Comment 12 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2010-12-08 15:44:43 UTC
Yep I've read, so my understanding is either -nostdlib  have to be removed when using g++ with -pthread; or there is a need to explicitely add -lpthread
