Using Racket's raco on on Guix(SD)

Using Racket's raco on on Guix(SD)

[Christopher Lemmer Webber]

Hello all!  Sorry for the cross-post, but I've been doing more
development in Racket lately from GuixSD... and who wouldn't want a
scheme-based distribution and a scheme language's tooling to get along
better?

Unfortunately when I try to install packages with "raco pkg install"
I get errors like the following:

   ...

I seem to remember a couple of packages failing altogether, though in
the present moment I think the result is bad performance due to not
being properly compiled, but I'm not really sure.

My reading of this is that for whatever reason, Racket is trying to
compile the files in Racket's installed directory, but that's read-only
because it's installed as part of the system (in an immutable package
collection, at that).

My guess is that the Guix package has something misconfigured so that
this compilation directory is set to the wrong place, but what?

Thanks!

[…]

“call-with-atomic-output-file” in ’collects/racket/file.rkt“ attempts to
create a temporary file in whatever the result of ‘(path-only path)’ is,
or in the current directory.

What file is it trying to compile?

The root of this path appears to be ‘collectsdir’, which is set up at
‘configure’ time.  This directory seems to be correct, because it
contains Racket modules.  We would only need to ensure that compilation
does not use this directory by default.

I’m guessing that this is controlled by ‘do-get-compilation-dir+name’ in
‘collects/compiler/compilation-path.rkt’.

Does this make any sense?

I still don't know the answer to this, but I discovered while trying to
add some Scribble documentation to my library today that "raco setup"
also triggers this behavior, not just "raco install".

   I traced this back as far as I could by looking at the Racket compiler
   source code. Compilation generates a temporary file in the same
   directory where the result is supposed to go. If no errors occur, the
   temporary file is then renamed to become the output. The partial stack
   traces point to locations in the code that do a recursive traversal of
   a library in order to compile everything. Unfortunately, the part that
   decides where the output goes is not referenced in the stack trace.

In my tests, all packages ended up working, but performance is indeed 
worse than with a Racket installation outside of Guix.

It would be nice if someone with more knowledge of Racket internals 
could give a hint or two for debugging this issue!

I'm posting a bug bounty on this issue: if someone can fix this I will
pay them $250 USD.  I don't have the time or knowledge enough of Racket
internals to do so myself.

I have discovered a few things, but I’m not sure how to fix the
underlying problem(s).

The reason Racket is trying to recompile the OpenSSL files is because of
a hash mismatch.  This can be seen by enabling debugging output:

    $ PLTSTDERR=debug raco setup openssl

Which says a lot of things, but most interestingly it says:

--------------------------------
...
compiler/cm: checking: /gnu/store/jx0bkmaafb8fq0mqs5ywgnxq8rbpn8j1-racket-6.12/share/racket/collects/openssl/libcrypto.rkt

  system error: Read-only file system; errno=30
  context...:
...
--------------------------------

This hash mismatch is caused by grafting.  When the package is built,
the path to OpenSSL gets hard-coded in a source file.  The SHA-1 hash
for this file is stored in its “.dep” file.  When the output is grafted,
the source file gets updated with a new OpenSSL path, but the hash does
not get updated.  This makes Racket think that the cached bytecode file
is incorrect (even though it was likely grafted too), and it tries to
recompile it.  It fails because it tries to write this new bytecode file
to the store.

I double checked this by trying with an ungrafted Racket, and got better
results.  (There was still a warning about writing to the store, but it
seemed less significant.)

The only thing I can think of for a fix would be to patch Racket to be
more lenient with bytecode files in the store.  That is, ignore hash
mismatches in store-files.  I might give this a try later tonight if
nobody has any better ideas.

Interesting... I hadn't even considered grafting.  (I still wonder why
it's even trying to open *any* file in the store for output though...)

BTW, some examples of packages where I've had trouble, in case it helps
with testing:

 - Raart
 - Gregor
 - crypto (seemed to work last time, not sure why it wasn't working before)

Though at this point I also can't do just "raco setup" on a local
package either, but maybe resolving this issue will fix that.

From what I've learned in the last couple of hours, the last problem could
be due to leftovers in your raco / dotRacket folder from an older installation.

Would be nice if it were so simple, but:

Having removed ~/.racket, try:

$ git clone https://github.com/cwebber/racket-linkeddata.git
$ cd racket-linkeddata/linkeddata

This is a timezone issue.  The “tzinfo” package cannot find the
“zoneinfo” directory in GuixSD.  If you install the “tzdata” Racket
package, things seem to settle down.  (It would be better to tell
“tzinfo” to use the system database, but that’s harder to do.)

I got better results with “raart” when “gcc-toolchain” was available
(i.e., “guix environment --ad-hoc gcc-toolchain”).  I guess it has to
compile a bit of native code, so it needs a compiler.  It still brakes
due to a syntax error, but I get the same error on Debian, so I guess
that’s something.  :)

Also, I checked all of this from Racket without grafts, and it never
complained about compiling OpenSSL stuff.  Running “raco setup” gives
some other errors, though.

Actually this problem resembles me to another one, it's similar to why gdb
is not working when grafting is used. I believe that the correct solution
to these types of issues would be to recompute the hashes, and provide the
updated hashes to the packages relying on them, so that they know the
correct hash of the grafted file. In the gdb case this seems to be easier
to solve, as the problem occurs inside a single package.

Oh that's true.  I guess this was multiple issues.  Anyway, horray, that

You're right... without grafts it doesn't have the openssl error.  The
other writing to the store issues still seem to persist, but it doesn't
block running "raco setup" (after a "raco pkg install", a step I had
omitted earlier).

ISTM that this is a separate bug.  In fact I'm afraid I've polluted this
bug with what I thought were all the same bug but turned out to be
several different bugs, of which a couple are fixed now thanks to your
help.

PS: About the bounty, my thoughts are that some of these smaller issues
being resolved are already worth a smaller amount of compensation (and
thanks!), but there are *two different* larger issues of which probably
either is worth the full amount (though I can only afford to pay for
one)... one of them is the issue of the grafts breaking eg openssl
(which maybe we should file as a separate bug?), and the other is this
original bug (30680) about the attempts to compile to the store (which
does not seem as big of a blocker as it did previously, but is still
very annoying).  Does that seem fair?  (Feel free to contact me

Okay.  I was confused about the “raco setup” example, but the other step
makes more sense now.

I will say that even on Debian, with an regular user, I have seen
“permission denied” errors because Racket tries to update files in
“/usr/share”.

Actually I think there is only one bug, which is the grafts thing.  This
bug was originally about compiling OpenSSL files to the store.  Grafting
doesn’t break OpenSSL it just makes Racket try to recompile its OpenSSL
FFI wrappers.

I have a patch, too.  I sent it to guix-patches, but I must have made a
mistake because it ended up in bug-guix attached to this bug report.
The patch can be found at <https://debbugs.gnu.org/30680>.  Also, the
attachment didn’t get sent to the list, but did make it to the bug page.
Hm....  Sorry for the goof!

Good news: this seems fixed with this patch.  Some more comments inline.

Okay... on that note, "raco pkg install" now completely works IME
without permission errors, I should mention.  I'm still seeing a couple
of permission errors on "raco setup", but they don't look like they
matter unlike the ones that were appearing earlier.  And you're right,
I tried on Debian and got some errors too.

For the record, the ones I saw looked like this:

delete-file: cannot delete file
  path: /gnu/store/33rx7rh6q22h3r11x8prz37nl7ygfl22-racket-6.12/bin/raco

But again, I don't think they matter.

It seems good to me.  I'm going to push it.  Thanks for your work on
this!

I'll email you off-list about paying the bounty :)

Okay.  I was confused about the “raco setup” example, but the other step
makes more sense now.

I will say that even on Debian, with an regular user, I have seen
“permission denied” errors because Racket tries to update files in
“/usr/share”.

From what I've learned in the last couple of hours, the last problem could
be due to leftovers in your raco / dotRacket folder from an older installation.

Interesting... I hadn't even considered grafting.  (I still wonder why
it's even trying to open *any* file in the store for output though...)

BTW, some examples of packages where I've had trouble, in case it helps
with testing:

 - Raart
 - Gregor
 - crypto (seemed to work last time, not sure why it wasn't working before)

Though at this point I also can't do just "raco setup" on a local
package either, but maybe resolving this issue will fix that.
