[Ecls-list] Need help compiling ECL 10.4.1 (32-bit) on Win7 64-bit via mingw32/msys
Hi,
New to the list, so please forgive me if I've missed a thread that
covers this.
I'm trying to compile ECL 10.4.1 under Windows 7 64-bit.
Unfortunately, I'm having problems, and the Windows with
Mingw/Cygwin section of the reference guide is totally blank, so I
thought I should ask here.
(Note: already read some previous comments about 64-bit support. I'm
just trying to build a 32-bit ECL via 32-bit MinGW, so don't worry,
I'm not barking up *that* tree. However, the OS *is* 64-bit.)
1. I grabbed the CVS version of the Boehm GC. Built it successfully
using ./configure make make install. (7.1 failed to compile
via MSys in this way.)
2. I tried to ./configure and make ECL. This did not pan out...
./configure --enable-threads=yes
# no problem, but did give some warnings:
# configure: Configuring included GMP library:
# configure: WARNING: you should use --build, --host, --target
make
# (This fails; output attached at the end)
From here, I don't really know how to proceed.
I don't need to run 10.4.1, but I would really like to get some
version of ECL running on this system. If anyone can advise me of
some way to get some version going, it'd really be appreciated.
Attached at the bottom is the error from running make, plus notes on
my MinGW configuration (in case it matters).
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Paul Goins

[Ecls-list] ECL HEAD now compiles Embedded Qt Lisp
Just letting you know that the Embedded Qt Lisp EQL (http://gitorious.org/eql/eql) now compiles fine with the current ECL HEAD. (For the interested: I needed to insert the macro definition from SERVE-EVENT:WITH-FD-HANDLER in the file src/lisp/ini.lisp, otherwise it didn't compile. Since I do some non standard things in the EQL tool, this hack seems necessary to make the compiler aware of the above mentioned macro.)

Re: [Ecls-list] Need help compiling ECL 10.4.1 (32-bit) on Win7 64-bit via mingw32/msys
Just wanted to ask the same question, but you beat me to it :)
I'm using mingw64, Win7 64, similar to you.
I can build gc-7.2-alpha-4 as both 32 and 64 bit, by setting CFLAGS=-mXX flag.
The problem is that gmp on windows could be compiled only as -m32. I
tried gmp-4.3.2 and gmp-5.0.1 and latest mipr and I was able to
compile them only with -m32.
(Does anyone knows gmp compatible lib that can be used instead of gmp on win64?)
If you don't providn -m flag, on our system gcc asumes -m64.
I compiled both gmp and gc with -m32, set CFLAGS for ECL to use -m32,
Compilation went fine until the moment ./ecl_min is invoked. I suppose
the problem is that ./ecl_min uses gcc to compile lisp stuff, but
doesn't set -m32 flag, and gcc asumes -m64 (or something like that, I
don't have access to that box right now)
I tried looking at the build farm trying to see correct flags for this
kind of builds, but the logs were empty.
I hope this helps to further locate the problem.
It would be best if new configure option would be added to allow
choice between 321 and 64 bit compilation mode, or just instructions
how to do it.
Regards,
Marko

It is not good to hardcode special flags in ECL. If something is needed for your system, for instance in this case it seems that -m32 is needed, then adding it at the end of the call to configure as in ./configure --enable-unicode CFLAGS=-m32 should do it. If this does not work and ECL forgets those flags, then it is a bug that needs to be fixed. Regarding more generally Win64 support, I have built ECL with Windos64 support using Microsoft's compilers.

The trick is simple: ECL gets an interrupt while executing a C function that can not be interrupted, it marks (using mmap) the Lisp environment as read-only, ECL tries to write to the environment after the C function finished, this causes a signal and now it can be processed together with the pending interrupts. But this only works when mmap implements interrupts with information. I am really surprised that the Sun platform does not support SA_SIGINFO :-/ Would one need additional compiler flags to allow the headers provide this facility?

POSIX is mostly a C API standard, so it is affected by limitations of C library. ... which is what ECL uses internally! This is not SBCL, and even they do not have everything under control And the standard due to political pressure has to accomodate essentially obsolete systems. However, AFAIK at the system call level on most Unix system there is no problem: one may call system calls from signal handler or longjmp outside. There may be problem with locking in the C library, but C libraries are getting better. I do not believe this. C libraries get better in terms of multithreading support and locking between threads, but they do not support async-signal safety. GNU libc explicitely speaks against it as do other vendors that follow POSIX. We do have to take this seriously So, I think that ECL should look at capabilites provided by popular system and base on that (possibly declaring that some functionality is absent on less popular systems). The problem with signals and interrupts is that the behaviour we would like (arbitrary interruptions are ok, arbitrary code is, too) is not something *provided*. Something provided is a behavior that one can rely on, not the current status of things that may or may not work. Look at it from a reasonable point of view: it is impossible to write code that is async-signal-safe and allows arbitrary interruptions at unpredictable times. This may happen in the middle of a slot write or read, or while modifying a list, or while reading from a file (as in FILE) which is left in a locked state (and thus the signal handler code can not use the file), etc, etc. The only way to avoid those problems within the optimistic way of coding is to switch on and off interrupts all the time, but if one looks carefully at the code, then the places where the ON status is feasible is a very small fraction of the code.

Re: [Ecls-list] Revisiting locks and signals
Mathew, let me try to explain again what is the problem and a possible operation model. First of all a reminder of how I name things (which may not be compatible with usual standards :-). Compiled programs may receive interrupts or signals which may be originated by the operating system or by other situations. I see only these scenarios for interrupts: 1* Inter-process communication. 2* Inter-thread communication 3* Serious computation errors: SIGSEGV, SIGBUS 4* Not so serious errors: SIGFPE 5* Interruption of code as with Ctrl-C. I see these reasons 6- Interrupt rroneous code with infinite loops 7- Interrupt deadlocked code 8- I/O operations that take too long 9- Interrupt as a way to debug / inspect a thread (Feel free to add more to the list) The problematic begins when deciding how the program reacts to these interrupts. C libraries typically allow two ways of working: i) the interrupt is delivered at any time, user code is stopped and an appropriate handler is executed. Since the interrupt may happen almost at any part of the code, the signal handler can only perform simple tasks that do not conflict with whatever was being done. In particular many resources (locks, files, etc) may be left in an inconsistent state during the signal. ii) the program has a thread that waits for those interrupts. In this case it is like reading from a file a list of events. Things are safe and ok for handling, but not all interrupts can be waited for (see 3, 4 or the group 5) Let us, as an exercise, assume that ECL runs with most interrupts disabled. In other words, the signal handlers in an ECL thread can only perform trivial tasks and we have an optional thread implementing what point (ii) above says. The first two situations (1,2, typically implemented via INTERRUPT-PROCESS) can be eliminated or enforced out. There are better ways to do inter-process communication than signals and most kind of such signals can be automatically translated into other communication means (SIGPIPE - errno, user signal - pipe message or socket...) The situation 3 is serious and should be handled accordingly, for the affected thread may not continue to execute normally. Possible responses are a) suspending the thread and opening a new thread with a debugger b) jumping to an outer point of code (unsafe) c) killing the thread Out of these b) and c) are deemed unsafe but we are already in a muddy land when a SIGSEGV is delivered. The case 4 can be handled similarly as 3 but we can complement with an additional option, d) ignore floating point signals and continue, which is safe and ok. Case 8 is ok. Getting an interrupt delivered during I/O operations is safe. We may enforce I/O operations to abort on receiving an interrupt even without using signal handlers. Calls to READ or PRINT will recognize that the I/O operation failed, look at the list of pending interrupts and invoke the appropriate error handlers. Case 9 is also simple. One may reserve a signal to indicate thread suspension. In that case th signal handler is simple and just waits for a resume signal, allowing another thread to inspect its environment and gather information. This can be done in a POSIX-compatible way if the debugger does not want to inject or execute additional code in the suspended thread. Cases 6 and 7 are more complicated. The problems with infinite loops and deadlocks (infinitely waiting mutexes), is that we would like be able to break the offending code (as with Ctrl-C) without quitting the lisp image. This means we need a way to stop a thread, typically forcing it to jump to an outer point. There are various ways to implement such a SIGINT handler a* The SIGINT handler always jumps to an outer point in the lisp code. b* Similar as a but only when the function is marked interruptible. c* Similar as a but the thread is paused and in a separate thread a debugger is started, from which we can decide whether to jump to an outer point. d* The SIGINT handler queues the interrupt until it is explicitly checked for. Only the last alternative is POSIX-compliant, but it is very costly, because it forces us to add interrupt checks every now and then, as in GOTOs, and does not solve the problem of deadlocks. So it seems it would be possible to execute ECL threads that run with interrupts mostly disabled. Signal handlers would do very little, and only in the undesirable situations would they allow jumping to outer parts of the code or canceling the thread (unwinding any possible operations), but that would be done placing the burden of possible side-effects on the user. This would have a couple of positive side effects. One would be that it would make coding a lot simpler. Most of ECL right now is not async-signal-safe and it will probably never be. Lisp code also can't be async-safe. Instead of revisiting all the code, filling it with ecl_disable_interrupt() calls, which are costly, we would be able to get a cleaner Lispwhere everything is assumed to
