Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2022-09-27 07:04:40 UTC
https://blogs.gentoo.org/ago/2020/07/04/gentoo-tinderbox/

Issue: games-action/polymc-1.4.2-r2 fails to compile (lto).
Discovered on: amd64 (internal ref: lto_tinderbox)

NOTE:
This machine uses lto with CFLAGS=-flto -Werror=odr -Werror=lto-type-mismatch -Werror=strict-aliasing

Here is a bit of explanation:

-Werror=lto-type-mismatch:
User to find possible runtime issues in packages. It likely means the package is unsafe to build & use with LTO.
For projects using the same identifier but with different types across different files, they must be fixed to be consistent across the codebase.

-Werror=odr:
Used to find possible runtime issues in packages. These bugs are a problem anyway but may be even worse when combined with LTO. C++ code must comply with the One Definition Rule (ODR) - see https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/definition#One_Definition_Rule.

-Werror=strict-aliasing:
Used to find possible runtime issues in packages. These bugs are a problem anyway but may be even worse when combined with LTO.

Workarounds:
- If upstream is friendly and still active, file a bug upstream. For emulators, codecs, games, or multimedia packages, it may be worth just applying a workaround instead, as upstreams sometimes aren't receptive to these bugs (VALID FOR ALL).
- Use the new 'filter-lto' from flag-o-matic.eclass as it's likely to be unsafe with LTO (VALID FOR lto-type-mismatch - odr).
- Fix it yourself if interested, of course (VALID FOR ALL).
- Append-flags -fno-strict-aliasing (VALID FOR strict-aliasing).
- Use memcpy() but a union is sometimes suitable too (VALID FOR strict-aliasing).
- -fstrict-aliasing is implied by -O2, so this must be addressed in some form (VALID FOR strict-aliasing).

Same with prismlauncher, fwiw.

ping
Comment 5 Carson Rueter 2024-03-11 18:18:05 UTC
Does this only happen with PolyMC 1.4.2? Or does it also happen on PolyMC 6.1?

If the latter, please file a bug on PolyMC upstream. Prism Launcher as well if it has it.

The ping was for the package maintainer to ideally do that. I've not checked the latest version myself.

Ok, I was pinged since I'm on the maintainers list for polyMC. This doesn't occur on normal builds but I'll we if it happens with an updated ebuild

Version 8.2 seems to be fine, not sure about the other versions.

Ah, fixed by https://github.com/PrismLauncher/PrismLauncher/pull/374.
