Go: cmd/link: fails on Ubuntu Xenial due to unsupported relocations on 386, amd64

Created on 31 Oct 2015  Â·  31Comments  Â·  Source: golang/go

I am on the devel (xenial) channel now, but the error started popping up before the 15.10 release. Standard Linux AMD64 build. Building from master with the most recent binary release (1.5.1) as GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP.

git reset --hard origin/master
git clean -fxd
GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP=$HOME/tmp/go ./all.bash

...
many lines of successful build steps

@bsiegert and anybody else reading this issue: what @minux is saying is: arrange to build lang/go14 with CGO_ENABLED=0 set in the environment. Then you won't run into this bug.

Yes, if we do have to make a 1.4.4 release, we should include this fix. But this by itself does not seem to me like a sufficient reason to make 1.4.4 release.

I'll take this one, Ubuntu is partly my fault.

@jaccarmac can you please include _complete_ instructions to reproduce your setup so I can build a replica environment. Can you also include the complete output you receive along the way.

davecheney picture davecheney on 31 Oct 2015

My sources.list:

deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ devel main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu devel-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ devel-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ devel-backports main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu devel partner

Unix piping isn't working for the build output, so I'll add it when I figure that out.

jaccarmac picture jaccarmac on 31 Oct 2015

Thanks. Can you also check that golang-go is not installed and that
GOROOT is not set.

golang-go is definitely not installed. GOROOT may be the problem. Let me check.

jaccarmac picture jaccarmac on 31 Oct 2015

Same failure with unset GOROOT before the build.

jaccarmac picture jaccarmac on 31 Oct 2015

If you're using linux, or actually anything that isn't windows, you should never set GOROOT.

davecheney picture davecheney on 31 Oct 2015

It's my understanding that if you install the tools in a non-standard place you have to set it. Is that not the case any more?

jaccarmac picture jaccarmac on 31 Oct 2015

That is correct, but my recommendation is to not do that.

If you use the tarball from the website, installed to the recommended location, you don't need to set GOROOT.

If you build from source, then the correct value will be burnt in at compile time.

If you build from source, but want to have the files in a different final location, then set GOROOT_FINAL and move the contents afterwards.

Don't set GOROOT, it leads to problems 99 times out of 100.

Thanks! Last time I was building from source the value didn't get baked in and needed to be set if the path was outside /usr/local. In any case, even with the variable permanently unset the issue continues.

What version of ld or binutils do you have ? While go does not require a c compiler, cgo does, and will be expected by default on Intel platforms. What c compiler do you have installed?

What is in /tmp/go ? Is it go 1.4 ?

What version of the Go toolchain are you building?

ianlancetaylor picture ianlancetaylor on 31 Oct 2015

Do you have CGO_ENABLED=0 set in the environment? I think this error can only happen when using internal linking.

Do you have CC set in the environment? The relocation number 42 is not defined for x86_64, and it is implausible that it would be found in an x86_64 GNU/Linux ELF file (the 298 is just 42 + 256 and has to do with the Go linker's internal representation). It would be normal to find it in an ARM or PPC64 ELF file.

The incorrect file is in the archive /home/jaccarmac/local/golang/pkg/linux_amd64/runtime/cgo.a. Run ar x /home/jaccarmac/local/golang/pkg/linux_amd64/runtime/cgo.a _all.o. Attach that file to the issue.

ianlancetaylor picture ianlancetaylor on 31 Oct 2015

CGO_ENABLED is not set.

GOROOT=$HOME/tmp/go $HOME/tmp/go/bin/go version

go version go1.5.1 linux/amd64

CC is not set.

I can't upload _all.o directly. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_S86gZvPJWKSjVKR1dMVlJxNTA/view?usp=sharing

jaccarmac picture jaccarmac on 31 Oct 2015

Thanks. I see that spoke too quickly. Relocation 42 was added last week: https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2015-10/msg00186.html . You must be using a very up to date toolchain.

I think the Go build is using internal linking because the only external objects are from the runtime/cgo package.

It would be helpful if you could see whether this change fixes the problem: https://golang.org/cl/16529 . Thanks.

ianlancetaylor picture ianlancetaylor on 31 Oct 2015

CL https://golang.org/cl/16529 mentions this issue.

LGTM

jaccarmac picture jaccarmac on 31 Oct 2015

This is needed for Go to build from source with a new toolchain (i.e. the current devel version of Ubuntu). Does that make it a candidate for 1.5.2?

mwhudson picture mwhudson on 15 Nov 2015

I think so, and the patch is small. Added to 1.5.2 milestone.

ianlancetaylor picture ianlancetaylor on 16 Nov 2015

CL https://golang.org/cl/16982 mentions this issue.

gopherbot picture gopherbot on 17 Nov 2015

I'm marking this issue as 1.4.4, because it breaks building Go 1.4.3 with CGO_ENABLED=1. If we ever do a 1.4.4 release, we should include the fix for this issue.

ianlancetaylor picture ianlancetaylor on 18 Feb 2016

In pkgsrc, we keep Go 1.4 around as lang/go14, so that you have a version to bootstrap from.

It turns out that Go 1.4.3 does not compile any more on NetBSD-current, see above. @ryoon has provided a patch in https://gnats.netbsd.org/50777. Should I send this as a CL?

bsiegert picture bsiegert on 21 Feb 2016

If we just need to keep Go 1.4 available as bootstrap compiler for newer
versions,
we can just support CGO_ENABLED=0 build of Go 1.4.

minux picture minux on 21 Feb 2016
👍1

@bsiegert and anybody else reading this issue: what @minux is saying is: arrange to build lang/go14 with CGO_ENABLED=0 set in the environment. Then you won't run into this bug.

Yes, if we do have to make a 1.4.4 release, we should include this fix. But this by itself does not seem to me like a sufficient reason to make 1.4.4 release.

ianlancetaylor picture ianlancetaylor on 21 Feb 2016

Thanks for fixing it in pkgsrc, several people were investigating NetBSD-current breakage simultaneously.
