tinygo:ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: crypto/aes.encryptBlockAsm

[d33tah]

I tried to give tinygo a try by building a simple "hello world" web service. Instead, I found that crypto/aes doesn't compile:

> sudo docker run --rm tinygo/tinygo:0.22.0 tinygo test crypto/aes 
tinygo:ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: crypto/aes.encryptBlockAsm

It looks like those packages are on the list of the ones supported by TinyGo, so what's the problem?

You need to read the large type at the top of that page :-)

A PR is pending to update that page to show which packages actually pass tests, which ought to help clear up the confusion.

The tests that pass in the dev branch (which will soon become the next version, 0.23) on darwin, linux, wasi, and windows can be found by checking out that branch and typing "make report-stdlib-tests-pass". Here's what it currently says:

report.txt

Note that net/http is not in the list whose tests pass. So, you can import it, but you can't use all the functions in it yet.

fmt is also not in the list, probably because %v doesn't pass tests (because reflection is not fully supported), but it's useful otherwise.

Got it. Thanks for pointing that out! I guess that the issue can be closed then.

It's a real enough bug. Easier way to demonstrate it is:

C02DG0QJMD6R:tinygo dkegel$ build/tinygo test crypto/aes

You might tidy up this bug report by editing down the long log in your initial comment, though.

btw, the missing symbol comes from regular go, and isn't picked up because it is in assembly and we don't quite support that yet; https://github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/pull/2688 may eventually fix that.

@dkegel-fastly done. does it look OK now?

[aykevl]

This issue would be fixed with #3103.

Also affects go-jose and golang-jwt, unsurprisingly.
