iptables not building on master

iptables not building on master

[Autif Khan]

I was working with M2 until recently and had to switch to master.
After I switched to master, I tried to bitbake core-image-sato for
machine crownbay. The build fails with the following error:

unknown type name '__aligned_u64'

The file in question is extenstions/libxt_pkttypes.c

After a bit of investigation (thanks Khem) it seems like instead of
/usr/include/linux/types.h, the include/linux/types.h from iptables
source is being included. These a bit incompatible - specifically -
the definition for __aligned_u64 is not in the latter.

I am building core-image-sato for qemux86 and will report when the
build reaches that point.

Is this a known issue?

*** This issue should be hitting anyone doing a clean build on master.
Or at the very least someone who builds iptables recipe***

I looked at the recent change (post M2) that iptables was updated to
1.2.12.2 (from 1.2.12.1). There was a patch included for
extensions/GNUmakefile  which does not build "check" target. I looked
at what it does and realized that someone more experienced that I am
should look into this.

Thanks

I love working with master:

work/i586-poky-linux/polkit-0.104-r4/temp/log.do_configure says:

configure: error: Could not find pam/pam-devel, please install the
needed packages.

It seems like pam/pam-dev is needed in the target environment and not
in the host environment.

Although, iptables seem to have built. I can't imagine how it will be
affected by meta-intel and meta-crownbay - they do not do anything
with iptables.

Trying to build core-image-minimal for crownbay now. Will report when done.

Re: iptables not building on master

[Autif Khan]

Interesting - core image minimal builds fine - it does not actually
build iptables. So the point is moot.

I did a clean build for core-image-sato and it failed at the same
place for the same error.

I am no sure how meta-intel + meta-crownbay can interact with iptables
- there is no recipe for iptables in meta-intel anywhere.

Tom - If you have the bandwidth - can you please see if you can
replicate my woes.

I do not know anyone else who is on master and crownbay. If there -
please let me know if things work for you.

This broke for me when I moved from M2 to master.

Thanks

Hi Autif,

I'm sure it's nothing to do with crownbay or meta-intel, but I'll fire
off a build anyway.  I only have my laptop available, so it may take all
night, but will let you know what I find.  FWIW I normally build on
master of both meta-intel and poky and haven't seen this, so it must be
very recent.

Re: iptables not building on master

[Cui, Dexuan]

Hi all, I got the same issue 3 days age and reported a bug https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2053

I did some analysis and I tend to think we need to fix iptables's makefile.
I have been in a business traval since then so I can't continue the debugging.
It would be great if somebody can help on this.

Thanks,
-- Dexuan

Re: iptables not building on master

[Tom Zanussi]

In the meantime, if you remove the line:

PREFERRED_PROVIDER_linux-libc-headers ?= "linux-libc-headers-yocto"

from meta-intel/conf/machine/include/ia32-base.inc

it will pick up the same headers as qemux86 and you shouldn't see this
problem.

Re: iptables not building on master

[Robert Yang]

Hi Tom,

Thanks for the update, the root cause is that iptables offers
a kernel header file include/linux/types.h, but it mis-matches
the kernel in the sysroot, we can add this:

#define __aligned_u64 __u64 __attribute__((aligned(8)))

to:

iptables-1.4.12.2/include/linux/types.h

to fix this problem.

Another solution is that as Dexuan suggested we change the order of
the include header files, but I'm afraid that may cause other problems,
since I think that the pkg's own header file should have a higher priority
than the system's, so I think that the current order is correct.

I will send a pull request after enough testing.

My understanding is:
Recently the preferred linux-libc-headers was upgraded to linux-libc-headers-yocto-3.2, that introduced a new struct tpacket_hdr_v1 in linux/if_packet.h and the new struct uses __aligned_u64 but __aligned_u64 is not defined in iptables's own linux/types.h
Currently in iptables's makefile, its own linux/types.h comes first than that one in our sysroot in the header file search order, and I noticed iptables doesn't have a file linux/if_packet.h. So, with our sysroot's linux/if_package.h and iptables's own linux/types, we get the failure.

If we define __aligned_u64 _ in iptables's own linux/types.h, we're still using our sysroot's linux/if_packet.h with iptables's linux/types.h -- I think this is not correct even if the build can pass?  I think we should use header files consistently.

Yes, I agree with you ,I was going to change the older of the header files
at first, but after thought for a while, I don't know why iptables carries
part of the kernel header files, I don't know whether change the order of
the headers would cause other problems. I checked the linux/if_packet.h when
MACHINE=qemux86, it is different from the crownbay's, it doesn't have the
__aligned_u64, so I choose the simple and impact less way to fix it:-)

Anyway, if you insist on changing the order, I will try to do it.

Re: iptables not building on master

[Robert Yang]

Hi Dexuan,

After more investigation, I found that the:

-I/path/to/sysroot/usr/include

has been treated as the  standard system include directory,

and from gcc's manual:

  -I dir
            Add the directory dir to the list of directories to be searched for 
header files.  Directories named by -I are searched
            before the standard system include directories.  If the directory 
dir is a standard system include directory, the option is
            ignored to ensure that the default search order for system 
directories and the special treatment of system headers are not
            defeated .


so whether we put the kinclude_CPPFLAGS at the front or end doesn't
change the search order, gcc will always search iptables-1.4.12.2/include/
firstly, if we want to use the those header files consistently from the
sysroot, we should remove the iptables-1.4.12.2/include/linux directly
since all the files in this directory are from kernel headers, but after
I remove the directory, the build failed at:

| In file included from libip4tc.c:118:0:
| libiptc.c:70:8: error: redefinition of 'struct xt_error_target'
| 
/buildarea/lyang1/war_8/tmp/sysroots/crownbay/usr/include/linux/netfilter/x_tables.h:69:8: 
note: originally defined here

It seems that iptables keep and use their own kernel header files.

I will send a pull request with the fix method:

#define __aligned_u64 __u64 __attribute__((aligned(8)))

iptables has always done this .. and it has periodically caused issues like
this in the past. Typically something like you have above is done, or
iptables is updated to a newer version (I assume we can't do that
in this case?), to fix any build issues.

I've had iptables in a directory/location with a dependency on a particular
kernel version (to show the coupling) in the past to enforce a check
before the build breaks.

find out why iptables has its own copy of linux/types.h that file should 
be deleted if there is no reason to have it.

it still does not say why iptables keeps a copy of its own.

Nominally it is to protect them from kernel headers changes and to not
require headers or a full tree to be present (or at least this is what
I've learned over the years, I may be forgetting other elements).

In the past, I've also removed this duplication of kernel header files
as well, and it does work, but it does create a tighter binding to
toolchain or kernel sources.

It is something that can be changed in the package, but as they say
"you end up with the pieces, if it breaks" :)

Bruce

from OE's POV we can assume that we will always have kernel-headers
so we could prefer them instead ? We are not interested in building it
standalone but rather with some distro

It definitely is, this probably falls into "if it works .. " so
it stays as-is.

Yes, you're right - I've been carrying a patch to remove this as part of
my current BSP work, but hadn't posted it yet.  Just now did though...
