 Dagn Hive | is there any further information or tests i should provide ? | 06:20:07 |

 Alex | Given that you can reproduce on multiple x86 machines, it looks like:
native riscv => ok
emulated riscv => failure
I'm running the build emulated locally to be extra sure of the above.
I'm not really sure how Nixpkgs handles fixes for emulator-only issues.
(It could also just be that my RISC-V hardware is more forgiving than QEMU of non-standard behaviour?) | 06:24:56 |
| Dagn Hive | hm possibly | 06:25:26 |
| Dagn Hive | what riscv device are you building on ? | 06:28:02 |
| Alex | StarFive VisionFive 2 | 06:28:50 |
| Dagn Hive | alright, that's what i'll be building on | 06:29:00 |

| Dagn Hive | time for a third bug report i guess | 05:28:46 |
| [0x4A6F] | Who is also up for nix riscv64 maintainership? | 06:44:44 |

 fgaz | I moved the pad to https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/RISC-V. I only moved the links for now. Who is the copyright owner of the GHC stuff at the end? Could you add it to the wiki? | 06:57:03 |
| fgaz | In reply to @0x4a6f:matrix.org
Oh you already noticed! | 06:58:32 |
| [0x4A6F] | Yeah, did some rework on the wiki, glancing at the NixOS_on_Arm page :) | 07:02:38 |

| [0x4A6F] | We might organize through subpages, that is a cool feature of MediaWiki. | 07:11:14 |

Sure. Would it belong best on a separate page, given that it's quite long? Since [0x4A6F] added a GHC redlink I assume that's the intention | 07:53:03 |

Since [0x4A6F] added a GHC redlink I assume that's the intention Ah it wasn't showing up as as red link because I wasn't signed in apparently. | 08:05:07 |
| [0x4A6F] | And it wasn't saved because of that calc-captcha... | 16:16:40 |

And it wasn't saved because of that calc-captcha... -> https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/RISC-V/GHC Pain. I was going to copy it over to the wiki anyway. I guess I might touch it up a bit to make it more flake-friendly. | 16:43:31 |
| Alex | In reply to @0x4a6f:matrix.org
Thanks Alex for that writeup and your work on cross bootstraping GHC. ❤️ I still need to figure out what's causing the registerised segfaults, so it's not done yet. | 16:44:39 |
| Alex | The rustc build is segfaulting on native builds too 🙃
Seems to be https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/117022
Now beginning to wonder if all the GHC segfaults aren't also kernel-related... | 18:02:35 |
| Alex |
- rustc segfaults due to the 6.5 kernel(?).
- uboot-tools is needed to build the 6.8 kernel.
- python3-cryptography is needed to build uboot-tools.
- rustc is needed to build python3-cryptography.
I'm glad I've never GCed on this system, because I might need to run an older kernel to upgrade the kernel... | 19:50:19 |
| Dagn Hive | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/301340 | 20:01:35 |
| Dagn Hive | do you think all of the segfault errors on my builds are related to this kernel as well ? | 20:02:02 |
