[cmucl-imp] About the compilation of cmucl with recent versions of GCC.
by Juan Pablo Hierro Álvarez 17 Apr '19

17 Apr '19

Dear sirs, This is my first mail to this list and do not expect to remain very active. I was running a Fedora 29 machine and tried to install cmucl 21d. Binaries worked without trouble. However, I decided to try and bootstrap the system, only to head into open issue #68. https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/cmucl/cmucl/issues/68 I write this message because I think that I have found a work-around: In file cmucl/src/lisp/Config.x86_common I had to exchange the line CFLAGS += -O2 with CFLAGS += -O1 That is to say, latest versions of the gcc compiler are only able to produce a working cmucl lisp binary with an optimization level up to -O1. --- The proposed replacement of gcc by clang *(Commit 82bf2c72) *worked too. By the way, clang apparently works fine with optimization -O3. ----------- Notwithstanding the previous assertions, I run tests and all of them worked but for "issue.45". Failed tests: (ISSUES-TESTS::ISSUE.45) | Failed Form: (GET-OUTPUT-STREAM-STRING ISSUES-TESTS::S) | Expected "ls-link " but saw "/usr/bin/env: 'test-tmp/ls-link': No such file or directory " | | Failed Form: (PROCESS-EXIT-CODE ISSUES-TESTS::PROCESS) | Expected 0 but saw 127 | | Failed Form: (GET-OUTPUT-STREAM-STRING ISSUES-TESTS::S) | Expected "ls-link " but saw "ls: cannot access 'test-tmp/': No such file or directory " | | Failed Form: (PROCESS-EXIT-CODE ISSUES-TESTS::PROCESS) | Expected 0 but saw 2 | | Failed Form: (GET-OUTPUT-STREAM-STRING ISSUES-TESTS::S) | Expected "ls-link " but saw "/bin/ls: cannot access 'test-tmp/': No such file or directory " | | Failed Form: (PROCESS-EXIT-CODE ISSUES-TESTS::PROCESS) | Expected 0 but saw 2 | ISSUE.45: 0 assertions passed, 6 failed. Of course, there were no test-tmp directory in my file system. Is this an expected behaviour or should the tests have created the needed directories and files? Yours faithfully, ---- Juan Hierro.

[cmucl-imp] ignore-errors for missing foreign functions
by Anton Vodonosov 01 Feb '19

01 Feb '19

Hello CMUCL list, Code like this: (ignore-errors (cffi:defcfun ("SSL_CTX_set_default_verify_dir" ssl-ctx-set-default-verify-dir) :int (ctx :pointer))) fails despite ignore-errors if the foreign function is absent (the libssl.so version loaded doesn't have it). It fails when the fasl file containing this code is loaded: KERNEL:SIMPLE-PROGRAM-ERROR: Undefined foreign symbol: "SSL_CTX_set_default_verify_dir" I wanted to look in the manual, but the manual links provided at https://www.cons.org/cmucl/doc/index.html are broken (e.g. http://common-lisp.net/project/cmucl/doc/cmu-user/, http://common-lisp.net/project/cmucl/doc/cmu-user-html.tgz) The same failure even if we modify the code this way: (when nil (cffi:defcfun ("SSL_CTX_set_default_verify_dir" ssl-ctx-set-default-verify-dir) :int (ctx :pointer))) Is there a way to not fail when the function is absent? Best regards, - Anton

[cmucl-imp] Upcoming changes to website
by Raymond Toy 22 Dec '18

22 Dec '18

Now that gitlab.common-lisp.net supports gitlab pages, I'd like to take advantage of that so that when changes are pushed to the cmucl website, the html pages are automatically generated. The first step was renaming the git repo from cmucl-www to cmucl-site. You will need to make a new clone or change the remote for your existing website. For gitlab to be able to serve the site, the public_html directory will need to be moved. Anyone who mirrors the webpages and download directory will have to make some changes. If you use rsync to get these, you'll need to change the path. However, the path hasn't been set up yet; I'll let you know what the new path is once it's been decided. With these changes, I hope to keep the web site a bit more up-to-date. Of course, the cmucl wiki is still the best place for the most up-to-date info. Hope this doesn't cause too much disruption, especially for those managing mirrors.
