How to build the 5.7.1 toolchain in swift.org release-like archive layout on Ubuntu 20.04 or 22.04

mz2 · December 5, 2022, 5:06pm

Hi there!

I'm stuck trying to build the most recent release version of the Swift toolchain on Linux into an archive with a similar layout as the releases available at https://swift.org . I am in need of doing this as part of an ongoing effort of packaging the toolchain for Ubuntu, initially as a a ppa and ultimately in the universe package repository (I work for Canonical and have sought advice on how to accomplish this also internally, with there being initial support for it).

Thus far I've made a ppa available at swiftlang : Matias Piipari as a starting point essentially re-packaging the Swift.org tarballs (really a ropey proof of concept given the filesystem layout inside the archive etc), and also successfully elsewhere built some Snap packages of SwiftLint, SwiftFormat, the Vapor Toolbox etc using this deb as a staged component inside, mostly to check that package is OK. To actually do this in a way that will work across ARM64 and AMD64 microarchitectures and to address various lintian (Debian package linting errors with my ropey current package), building actually from source (with Ubuntu intended additional compiler flags added) is necessary.

My following attempt with utils/build-toolchain (should be reproducible in a clean VM such as using a 22.04 instance launched using multipass or any other VM host of choice) demonstrates the failure:

sudo snap install sccache --candidate --classic sudo apt-get -y update sudo apt-get -y install build-essential clang cmake git icu-devtools libcurl4-openssl-dev libedit-dev libicu-dev libncurses5-dev libpython3-dev libsqlite3-dev libxml2-dev ninja-build pkg-config python2 python2-dev python3-six python3-distutils rsync swig systemtap-sdt-dev tzdata unzip uuid-dev mkdir source cd source git clone git@github.com:apple/swift.git ../../swiftlang-builder/swift cd swift utils/update-checkout --clone utils/update-checkout --tag swift-5.7.1-RELEASE ./utils/build-toolchain teh_prefix

The build failure is as follows happens when buildin libdispatch_static:

What am I doing wrong? The instructions over at swift/GettingStarted.md at main · apple/swift · GitHub
which suggest doing utils/build-script --release-debuginfo --skip-early-swift-driver \ --skip-early-swiftsyntax do work, but don't yield the full toolchain.

Hi @mz2,

To build the full toolchain, I would recommend following steps using Docker.

If you would like to avoid using Docker, you can installed the required packages from Dockerfile.

Clone:

git clone https://github.com/apple/swift-docker.git

Build Docker Image:

docker build -f swift-docker/swift-ci/master/ubuntu/22.04/ . -t swift-ci-ubuntu2204

Clone the repos:

git clone https://github.com/apple/swift.git git -C swift checkout release/5.7 ./swift/utils/update-checkout --scheme release/5.7 --clone ./swift/utils/update-checkout --tag swift-5.7.1-RELEASE

Build the toolchain:

docker run \ --cap-add=SYS_PTRACE \ --security-opt seccomp=unconfined \ -v <swift source location>:/source \ -v <some docker volume name>:/home/build-user \ -w /home/build-user/ \ <docker image tag from above> \ /bin/bash -lc "cp -r /source/* /home/build-user/; ./swift/utils/build-script --preset buildbot_linux install_destdir=/home/build-user/swift-install installable_package=/home/build-user/swift-DEVELOPMENT-SNAPSHOT-$(date +'%F')-a.tar.gz"

Also, if you are interested in the Debs and RPM checkout swift-installer-scripts/platforms/Linux at main · apple/swift-installer-scripts · GitHub.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Awesome! Well that Ubuntu deb build looks exactly like the thing I would like to build for my purposes (and would be happy to help work towards inclusion in universe if that's of interest?). I didn't manage to build the deb with at least the state of the main branch without changes though, and have posted a quick draft PR here with some changes I thought would help towards getting it built with 5.7.1: Adjust Ubuntu related patches to build 5.7.1 by mz2 · Pull Request #149 · apple/swift-installer-scripts · GitHub.

The main branch looked to be in some inconsistent state, noting 5.6.2 in changelog but referring to 5.7.1-RELEASE elsewhere (the yams dependency version also didn't look like it was the one used with 5.7.1?). More importantly there were build failures with 5.7.1 that I had seen before that I could resolve (the --skip-early-swift-driver being necessary being an example of that), only to see some other build failures. Possibly I am not adjusting the build preset correctly since the benchmarks were still getting built even if I supposedly made them not?

mz2 · December 17, 2022, 6:29am

Ah, there was another toolchain-benchmarks some lines below in the same preset, so of course the skip-toolchain-benchmarks somewhere above wouldn't have effect. Patched that away, trying again now… (that does work, now going to try to make lintian happy, too)

@mishal_shah any thoughts on why that failure is happening when building the Focal deb? I continue to see an equivalent failure both when attempting to build (with docker-compose, as advised in the README) either 5.7.1. or 5.7.2 if I don't patch away the toolchain-benchmarks:

Another Jammy specific build failure I am scratching my head with based on the Deb packaging scripts you linked to above is the following llvm (patched runtime build related?) failure that happens when building with an attempted Jammy specific debian package build configuration I made (is happening with a debian/control unmodified from the focal build, is not happening when building with the docker run steps you describe above, so I am guessing whatever is the focal/jammy difference boils down to something I am including / not including amongst package build dependencies in my Jammy specific debian/control which makes the ABI detection fail?):

What might I be missing?

Amongst the relevant CMake output, I could pick out the following things which I wonder if they are meaningful:

ignoring nonexistent directory "/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/11/../../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/include"
ignoring nonexistent directory "/include"
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/swift-deb-builder/swiftlang-5.7.2/build/buildbot_linux/llvm-linux-x86_64/bin/../lib/LLVMgold.so: error loading plugin: /tmp/swift-deb-builder/swiftlang-5.7.2/build/buildbot_linux/llvm-linux-x86_64/bin/../lib/LLVMgold.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

There exists /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/11/include/ (some combo of libstdc++-11-dev, libgcc-11-dev, libobjc-11-dev install files there) but indeed /usr/x86_64-linux-gnu/11/include/ (which /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/11/../../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/include evaluates to, nor /include does not exist).

The issue is actually something to do with the environment that debuild is building the package in in case of jammy, since this specific build fail does not surface if I call the build script directly in the same Docker container where it fails when going via build_deb.sh.

Environment variables? Something to do with focal / jammy differences of how fakeroot behaves? Ideas very welcome of how to debug this further.

Right, so that problem was down to flto=auto and -ffat-lto-objects which are set by default on Jammy. Manipulating them with dpkg-buildflags in debian/rules sorted that out.

Same error (LLVMgold.so not found) when building on Amazon Linux 2023.

I added this line to swiftlang.spec as per https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/LTOByDefault

%global _lto_cflags %nil

Thanks, this was what was keeping my Debian package of Swift from building in Ubuntu. Adding export DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS=optimize=-lto to debian/rules did the trick.
