loongarch64 need glibc2.36

[FULaBUla]

with jna 5.13, i can use it in any linux platform with glibc2.28. but when i try to use loongarch platform with KylinOS v10 (glibc 2.28), it will tell me i need glibc2.36 but this system just support 2.28. In KylinOS v10 (glibc 2.28) for arm, i don't have this problem.

龙芯的 so 在银河麒麟v10 上跑的时候提示我 glibc 版本要求 2.36，但是银河麒麟用的是 2.28，这个是怎么适配的？没法用呀

If anybody can point me to a mainstream linux distribution that supports loongarch64, I'm willing to have look. Currently I can't even access hosts of the gcc build farm, so at this point the next update of the native libraries will most probably loose support for loongarch64.

Oops, this is our mistake. I will get back to you as soon as possible to ensure that the JNA JAR package can be released properly.

Certainly, but the JNA 5.14.0 version that is compatible with glibc 2.28 has not yet been uploaded to the Loongson Maven repo. So, you can contact me via email at: [email protected].

The machine with the IP address 111.207.111.194 on the GCC build farm is currently accessible. We are actively working on adapting to Debian, and there may be a Debian distribution available later this year.

maybe you can try UOS or KylinOS V10 SP3. we are using KylinOS V10 SP3 now for our server.

Thanks for checking. Seems the problem might be the network I see roundtrip times in the range of 400ms and I get ssh timeouts. I see that from my private account (routed via sprintlink) and my vserver (routed via level3) with me localized in germany.

We are actively working on adapting to Debian, and there may be a Debian distribution available later this year.

That would be great. Having a debian stable build for loongarch would be a great help!

@FULaBUla

Thank you for the pointers, but I hit a hard language barrier, are there pages available in english?

@FULaBUla thanks again. Download of Kylin works. The next problem is running it. I was naive and tough that it should not be that hard to run a live system in qemu. I was naive and thought that qemu would provide a virtual GPU/VGA and that would be automatically be picked up. This works great on amd64, but utterly fails with the kylin image.

I just use vmware to install and run KylinOS for arm64. If you use KylinOS for loongson with qemu, i think you need to install loongson for qemu first.

[matthiasblaesing]

sigh it would be great if the resources would be in english (yes I know, that I can as google/deepl/whatever to translate). I'll see where this leads me....

[matthiasblaesing]

I was finally able to get Kylin working and learned, that the gcc provided by is is missing defines for the floating point ABI. The build fails with "unsupported LoongArch floating-point ABI". The error is raised in native/libffi/src/loongarch64/ffitarget.h, where __loongarch64 is defined, but neither __longarch_soft_float, __longarch_single_float nor __longarch_single_double.

So the mess continues. It would be really great if one of the mainstream linux distributions would be supported or the users would be prepared to be on a moving target and update to current library versions....

Please contact me by email: [email protected]. I'll follow up this question.

[matthiasblaesing]

@Panxuefeng-loongson I rebuild the native libraries as a reaction to the bugfix for #1586. All linux binaries were rebuild, but the loongarch one. For that binary I'm unable to create a sane build environment. At some point I hope that there will be either a Debian or Ubuntu based chroot available, but that is not the case (the debian port exists, but is not debootstrappable).

At this point this is not that bad. The new library revision is binary compatible, so support for loongarch64 is still there, but degraded.

Would you be able and willing to provide a build of the native part of JNA for loongarch64 based on current master (6486c90)?

[Panxuefeng-loongson]

@matthiasblaesing I'm deeply sorry for not responding promptly. I'm more than willing to provide any assistance. Would you like me to build the binary locally and then provide it to you?

[matthiasblaesing]

@Panxuefeng-loongson yes your interpretation is correct. Please build from current master and provide the resulting linux-loongarch64.jar. Thank you!

[Panxuefeng-loongson]

@matthiasblaesing Before moving forward, let me provide some context on the current state of LoongArch. We define two environments based on whether the Linux kernel LoongArch port has been accepted by the Linux community: before and after the acceptance of the Linux kernel LoongArch port. We refer to the environment before acceptance as ABI 1.0, and after acceptance as ABI 2.0. There may be compatibility issues between binaries built under ABI 1.0 and those under ABI 2.0.

In order to ensure the orderly development of LoongArch port within the community, I intend to build JNA based on the ABI 2.0 environment. For users on ABI 1.0, we have built binaries and hosted them here: jna

@Panxuefeng-loongson If i use KylinOS v10 (glibc 2.28)，so need i use ABI 1.0 version from your repository？the ABI 2.0 version doesn't support glibc 2.28, Is that right? When will you publish version 5.14.0 to your repository for ABI 1.0 user? Can the ABI 1.0 version be released simultaneously with the official version?

I'm sorry about the problems. I think maybe only the loongson staff can help you solve the problem to automate the packaging release.

[Panxuefeng-loongson]

I'll release it as soon as possible, but before that, I can give you a trial version. Please leave your email, and I will contact you.

I prefer to try to use the official release version, 5.14.0 has been released for half a year now, when will your ABI 1.0 version be released? @Panxuefeng-loongson
