This could go one of two ways: 1) musl sets soname on libc.so 2) portage begins to pretend there's an implicit soname that corresponds to the file name (which would be consistent with dynamic linking behavior in practice)

My guess is that lack of SONAME is done deliberately to workaround some other symlinking bug in their ldconfig: https://git.musl-libc.org/cgit/musl/commit/?id=dfdc337b3b276e6ea0e4786ede699f4d0d93dc40 > 2) portage begins to pretend there's an implicit soname that corresponds to > the file name (which would be consistent with dynamic linking behavior in > practice) I think SONAME inference has to be done in practice anyway as private libraries without a SONAME are not uncommon. I'd say SONAME warning against package itself should be enough. No need to proliferate to all packages using it. Unless Gentoo really-really wants SONAMEs to be present everywhere.

(In reply to Sergei Trofimovich from comment #5) > I think SONAME inference has to be done in practice anyway as private > libraries without a SONAME are not uncommon. This particular case for private libraries is already handled by the patch for bug 646190: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/portage.git/commit/?id=1364cd44e7a6232bf425c4573b5bd3d6738d49a4 > I'd say SONAME warning against package itself should be enough.

So, the SONAME must either be present or inferred, and if we infer it for musl then that means we'll infer it for any other package that behaves similarly. > Unless Gentoo really-really wants SONAMEs to be present everywhere. That seems like an uphill battle, given that dynamic linking works without it.

Anyway, I'm happy to make portage infer the SONAME for musl and anything else if that makes people happy.

Then we should avoid it downstream as well. Worth adding a comment to musl ebuild? I can work on a wording.

AFAIU the pseudocode should be something like: get_soname(filename): if exists(DT_SONAME, filename): return value(DT_SONAME, filename) return basename(filename) For both files and symlinks (if feasible). That way a package with files: libfoo.so libfoo.so.1 -> libfoo.so would provide both SONAMEs: libfoo.so and libfoo.so.1. I think that's what we want.
(In reply to Sergei Trofimovich from comment #9) > AFAIU the pseudocode should be something like: > > get_soname(filename): > if exists(DT_SONAME, filename): > return value(DT_SONAME, filename) > return basename(filename) Looks good, at least for regular files.

As an example, let's consider a library that bumps its SONAME on a regular basis: > /usr/lib/libicuio.so -> libicuio.so.65.1 > /usr/lib/libicuio.so.65 -> libicuio.so.65.1 > /usr/lib/libicuio.so.65.1 The DT_NEEDED entries for consumers should refer to the libicuio.so.65 SONAME. When we upgrade to icu-66 and preserve-libs kicks in, the consumers that link to libicuio.so.65.1 will still be usable, meanwhile the libicuio.so symlink will point to libicuio.so.66.1 and newly built packages can use this as a hint that they should link to the new libicuio.so.66.1 SONAME. Given this example, it seems like it would be too greedy to infer a libicuio.so SONAME from the libicuio.so symlink.

I forgot to mention that this imaginary libfoo.so has no SONAME tag (I picked the silly example). Thus users that link against -lfoo will get DT_NEEDED="libfoo.so", ones with /usr/lib/libfoo.so.1 (for whatever reason). will get DT_NEEDED="libfoo.so.1" Maybe better example would be: libimpl1.so libvirtual.so -> libimpl1.so > As an example, let's consider a library that bumps its SONAME on a regular > basis: > > > /usr/lib/libicuio.so -> libicuio.so.65.1 > > /usr/lib/libicuio.so.65 -> libicuio.so.65.1 > > /usr/lib/libicuio.so.65.1 > > The DT_NEEDED entries for consumers should refer to the libicuio.so.65 > SONAME.

I assume in you example libicuio.so.65.1 has no SONAME=libicuio.so.65 tag, is it correct? Otherwise for all three files algorithm would derive SONAME=libicuio.so.65 provider.

It's now off-topic since we have no intention of changing the behavior for things that have an SONAME tag.

Alternatively, you can manually edit the /var/db/pkg/*/*/NEEDED.ELF.2 file for that package and then touch the parent directory timestamp in order to invalidate the cache.
Edit the line in /var/db/pkg/sys-libs/musl-1.1.24/NEEDED.ELF.2 to look something like this (insert libc.so after second semicolon): X86_64;/lib64/libc.so;libc.so;;;x86_64 Then touch /var/db/pkg/sys-libs/musl-1.1.24 to invalidate the cache.

Where's the line with /lib*/libc.so in the second column? The patch is generating an soname for regular (dynamically linked) executables, not just shared libraries, so I need to look into fixing that.
In order to distinguish PIE executables from dynamic libraries, we can emulate what they're doing here: https://github.com/file/file/commit/03084b161cf888b5286dbbcd964c31ccad4f64d9 https://github.com/file/file/commit/9109a696f3289ba00eaa222fd432755ec4287e28

I have this patch that works: https://github.com/gentoo/pax-utils/pull/3

In order of scanelf -q to output something for musl's /usr/lib/libc.so here, it would have to infer an implicit soname.
