threads.xs: "implicit declaration of function '_setjmpex'" using MinGW-w64

Open twata1 opened this issue 3 years ago • 8 comments

Description

I'am building Perl 5.37.2 on Windows 8.1 64 bit using MinGW-w64 (gcc (MinGW-W64 x86_64-posix-seh, built by Brecht Sanders) 10.3.0). I am using gcc, which can be found at https://winlibs.com/ .

One of the build warnings is:

I can confirm that the above warning is also output in gcc-8.5.0, gcc-11.3.0 and gcc-12.1.0.

Steps to Reproduce

Download perl-5.37.2.tar.gz from metacpan. Extract from perl-5.37.2.tar.gz to C:\Perl64-gcc10.

On command promput: (Note: I use mingw32-make.exe as gmake.exe)

set PATH=C:\winlibs-x86_64-posix-seh-gcc-10.3.0-llvm-12.0.0-mingw-w64-9.0.0-r2\mingw64\bin;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0
set CCHOME=C:\winlibs-x86_64-posix-seh-gcc-10.3.0-llvm-12.0.0-mingw-w64-9.0.0-r2\mingw64
cd C:\Perl64-gcc10\perl-5.37.2\win32
gmake

Expected behavior

It is the suppression of warnings.

This patch silences the warnings for me:

I think it's correct - but I haven't yet tested it as thoroughly as I would like. (Maybe later today.)

It's rather annoying that this dual-life module is at version 2.28 in the perl source, but if you want to get a standalone source of it, there's nothing later than version 2.21 on CPAN. I wonder if it should be moved from 'dist' to 'ext' in the perl source ?

Cheers, Rob

Thanks for the patch suggestion.

By the way, I will close this ticket once and open the same at "https://github.com/Dual-Life/threads/issues". I would be happy to communicate with you there.

Thank you,

No - I think I gave you misinformation and that it's better to discuss it here. I'm not sure. I'm seeking clarification from p5p - see https://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl5.porters/2022/08/msg264633.html. (No replies yet at time of writing).

Cheers, Rob

I wonder if it should be moved from 'dist' to 'ext' in the perl source ?

No, someone should just release this module to CPAN (the previous maintainer has resigned). I'm likely to do that for threads::shared as soon as I've fixed one more issue, I might also do threads.

Leont avatar Aug 17 '22 15:08 Leont

Ok - thanks @Leont .

@twata1, I think the next thing to do is to create a new pull request for this at https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues . If you would like to do that, then please proceed. Otherwise, I'm happy to do it.

Cheers, Rob

@sisyphus Thank you for your suggestion. It may take some time but I will give it a try.

@twata1, I think the next thing to do is to create a new pull request for this at https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues . If you would like to do that, then please proceed.

I will now test using gcc-8.5.0, gcc-11.3.0 and gcc-12.1.0 to see if that warning in Perl 5.37.2 threads 2.28 is suppressed.

I am also considering the attached regarding the pull request text. PR-perl-threads-2.28.txt

If you could point out if I am going in any wrong direction, I would greatly appreciate it.

twata1 avatar Aug 18 '22 10:08 twata1

I could certainly confirm that the warning is suppressed.

Hello, there! Cc: @thesamesam

I would like some advice. What is the appropriate verb to describe resolving this issue? ("fix" or "suppress" or other words (e.g. "quell") or Any of these?)

Please also see comment https://github.com/Perl/perl5/pull/20116#issuecomment-1320680727.

Hi @twata1! I would say "fix", "solve", or maybe "appease" (but appease would be best only if you thought a warning was a bit silly/you're humouring it). To me, "suppress" suggests a false positive like we're quieting it.

Hi @thesamesam !

Thanks for the advice.

Certainly, I think this issue is not a false positive. I'm going to use the word "fix" which I often see here and there. This is the first time I've made a change within a pull request, so it might take a little longer by any chance.

Thank you,

Thank you! No problem at all! Let me know if you need any help.

Note: it is OK to force push to branches you used for a pull request.

I was having trouble with my github personal access token expiring. Now I have updated that pull request!
