I think it's an issue between uClibc-ng and Xenomai on Blackfin due to
pthread_atfork(), shm_open() and shm_unlink() local definition in Xenomai.

Error:
bind.c:(.text+0x20): multiple definition of `pthread_atfork'
.libs/libxenomai_la-assert_context.o:assert_context.c:(.text+0x54): first
defined here

sem_heap.c:(.text+0x24): multiple definition of `shm_unlink'
.libs/libxenomai_la-bind.o:bind.c:(.text+0x44): first defined here

It's because the Xenomai definition use declare these function as "inline" and
not uClibc-ng

Xenomai [1]:
/* uClibc does not provide pthread_atfork() for this arch; provide it
   here. Note: let the compiler decides whether it wants to actually
   inline this routine, i.e. do not force always_inline. */
inline __attribute__((weak)) int pthread_atfork(void (*prepare)(void),
						void (*parent)(void),
						void (*child)(void))

uClibc-ng:
extern int pthread_atfork (void (*__prepare) (void),
			   void (*__parent) (void),
			   void (*__child) (void)) __THROW;

I guess those "inline" should be removed?
Weldemar what do you think?

Best regards,
Romain

Is the same issue for shm_open() and shm_unlink() ?

Actually, it seems a bit weird to speak about pthread_atfork() for Blackfin
which doesn't have a MMU so fork() is not available.
I think that is why Xenomai try to define it on Blackfin, it doesn't expect
pthread_atfork() to be provided by the libc.

ok great :)

So even on Blackfin ?

Ok, some investigation are needed but it seems the same issue... remove
inline to fix the build...

I'm far to be an expert on no-MMU platform but yes, it seems we not need to
export pthread_atfork function.

I'm not sure if we also need to do the same for shm_* functions...

I'm looking at this failure again and I'm wondering how Xenomai can even work on
bflin with the pthread_atfork() from uClibc-ng.

The uClibc-ng functions pthread_atfork() return an error (-1) when
__ARCH_USE_MMU__ is not defined. So all Xenomai skins will fail during their
initialization.

/* We can't support pthread_atfork without MMU, since we don't have
   fork(), and we can't offer the correct semantics for vfork().  */
int pthread_atfork(void (*prepare)(void),
		   void (*parent)(void),
		   void (*child)(void))
{
  /* ENOMEM is probably pushing it a little bit.
     Take it as `no *virtual* memory' :-)  */
  errno = ENOMEM;
  return -1;
}

Xenomai pthread_atfork() silently return success.

/* uClibc does not provide pthread_atfork() for this arch; provide it
   here. Note: let the compiler decides whether it wants to actually
   inline this routine, i.e. do not force always_inline. */
inline __attribute__((weak)) int pthread_atfork(void (*prepare)(void),
						void (*parent)(void),
						void (*child)(void))
{
	return 0;
}

I would say that uClibc-ng shouldn't export a dummy pthread_atfork() on noMMU
platform.

Concerning shm_* functions, it seems that the weak attribute is discarded for
inline functions. See handle_weak_attribute() in gcc code, especially the
no_add_attrs argument.

That's why we have the following warning and then a symbol redefinition while
linking:

warning: inline function 'shm_open' declared weak [-Wattributes]
[...]
.libs/libxenomai_la-bind.o: In function `pthread_atfork':
bind.c:(.text+0x20): multiple definition of `pthread_atfork'
.libs/libxenomai_la-assert_context.o:assert_context.c:(.text+0x54): first
defined here

For the next Buildroot release it would be safer to disable Xenomai userspace
package for noMMU build.

Thoughts?

Yes. Could you send patches to fix the two issues to the uClibc-ng

OK. I've submitted a version of Thomas' patch upstream

Yes - From docs/manual/prerequisite.txt:

=== Mandatory packages

* Build tools:
..
** +python+ (version 2.6 or any later)

So before I go down that path. Are we saying python >2.6 is required
for buildroot? Or at least that is the expectation for the
auto-builders.

Or better, fix the script so that it is really Python 2.6 compliant, as
I suggested.

Depending on host-python or host-python3 should really be a last
resort solution IMO, when the Python code cannot be fixed to be Python
2/3 compliant.

This failure occurred on my autobuilder instance, which has:

$ python --version
Python 2.6.6

So apparently, the script is not completely Python 2.6 compliant like
they pretend it to be.

The line QSTRING_BLACK_LIST = {'NULL', 'number_of', } is defining a
set. It works in Python 2.7, but not in Python 2.6. I guess replacing
with:

QSTRING_BLACK_LIST = set(['NULL', 'number_of'])

should work fine (tested with 2.6, 2.7 and 3.5)

Best regards,

Thomas

Then you need to make it depend on host-python (or host-python3).

See for example: package/ca-certificates/ca-certificates.mk

I took a look at this. I can't reproduce it locally but I suspect it
might be due to the python version on the autobuilder do we have any
way of figuring that out? The py/makeqstrdefs.py states that "This
script works with Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.3 and 3.4." so I'm guessing
anything earlier than 2.6 Is not expected to work.

If this is the problem do we have any way of enforcing this dependency?
