Subject: (dynamic-link "libm") fails [was Re: Integrate Guile with GNU Scientific Library]
Date: Sat, 5 Oct 2019 09:55:40 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <78ee84e0-0c75-bf55-ae73-4136db094d35@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <872711be-6794-bb44-3634-b90baf568751@gmail.com>

   scheme@(guile-user)> (dynamic-link "libffi")
   $1 = #<dynamic-object "libffi">

   scheme@(guile-user)> (dynamic-link "libm")
   ERROR: In procedure dynamic-link:
   In procedure dynamic-link: file: "libm", message: "file not found"

Both libraries are linked into guile, so being already linked is not an 
issue.

However:

   mwette$ file /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so: ASCII text

mwette$ cat /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so
/* GNU ld script
*/
OUTPUT_FORMAT(elf64-x86-64)
GROUP ( /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6  AS_NEEDED ( 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmvec_nonshared.a 
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmvec.so.1 ) )

This is an apparent redirection.   I think this is a bug (or feature) of 
dlopen:

   mwette$ cat z2.c
   #include <stdio.h>
   #include <dlfcn.h>

   int main() {
     void *p;

     p = dlopen("/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so", RTLD_NOW);
     printf("%p\n", p);
   }
   mwette$ gcc z2.c -ldl
   mwette$ ./a.out
   (nil)
