Help Packaging Incudine (Common Lisp)

Help Packaging Incudine (Common Lisp)

[Théo Tyburn]

Hi there,

I'm trying to package Incudine, a Music/DSP programming environment for
Common Lisp. I'm stuck with the binding of libsndfile. First
libsndfile.so could not be found, but I fixed the paths like it is
commonly done in other CL packages. Next problem is that somehow the
bindings are not working. The error I get:

> file: /gnu/store/s2657snmavhsnqyr0hf6f8a2v1lvrln2-sbcl-incudine-0.0.0-1.21c99e4/share/common-lisp/sbcl/incudine/contrib/cl-sndfile/cffi-sndfile.lisp
> in: DEFUN MAKE-SNDINFO
>     (CFFI:FOREIGN-TYPE-SIZE '(:STRUCT SNDFILE:INFO))
> 
> caught WARNING:
>   Error during compiler-macroexpansion of
>   (CFFI:FOREIGN-TYPE-SIZE '(:STRUCT INFO)). Use *BREAK-ON-SIGNALS* to intercept.
>   
>    Unknown CFFI type (:STRUCT INFO)

Now in the source file `cffi-sndfile.lisp`, there is:

> (declaim (inline make-sndinfo))
> (defun make-sndinfo (&optional pointer)
>   (%make-sndinfo
>     :pointer (or pointer
>                  (cffi:foreign-alloc :int8
>                    :count (cffi:foreign-type-size '(:struct info))
>                    :initial-element 0))))
> 
> [...]
> 
> (cffi:defcstruct info
>   (frames sf-count)
>   (sample-rate :int)
>   (channels :int)
>   (format :int)
>   (sections :int)
>   (seekable :int))

If I look at the source `sndfile.h` (which is present in source/.cl-union)
there is:

> struct SF_INFO
> {	sf_count_t	frames ;		/* Used to be called samples.  Changed to avoid confusion. */
> 	int			samplerate ;
> 	int			channels ;
> 	int			format ;
> 	int			sections ;
> 	int			seekable ;
> } ;

So things look like they should match. Is there something I'm missing
here? I have 0 experience with CFFI bindings, so there might be
something obvious I'm missing.

Cheers

Oh, it seems I took the WARNING message for an ERROR message.

The error message seems to just be:
> Unhandled UIOP/LISP-BUILD:COMPILE-FILE-ERROR in thread #<SB-THREAD:THREAD tid=21 "main thread" RUNNING
>                                                          {100AFE8113}>:

No sure what can be done with this.

I include the whole backlog, maybe this helps:

Re: Help Packaging Incudine (Common Lisp)

[Théo Tyburn]

For some weird reasons I manage to compile this reluctant file in an
interactive session by accepting the error in the debugger and retrying
compilation later on when the compiled file is required.

Not sure in what retrying a compilation on the interactive debugger is
different from compiling normally. But I need to understand why the
retrying of compilation does in order to replicate it without the need
of an interactive session.

Here are the logs:
This is the first error where where I accept:

Tada. Any idea how I could achieve this without an interactive session ?

Note that this error doesn't tell you where CL would have written the
compiled file to.

I'd hazard a guess that your $HOME is writable in the interactive case
and not so much during guix build :)
Well, that still doesn't explain why the compilation fails normally in
the interactive case, does it?  I think for that you'd have to look up
uiop/lisp-build:compile-file and see when it raises errors.  Enter
rubber ducky.

Yes, that's probably the right place to look for hints. Need to find out
where and how compiled files are written.

Thanks

Hi.
Could you send the package definition you made for Incudine?
I could take a look at it and try to find where the issue comes from.

Hi, sure. Note that here the installation is narrowed to the asd system
"cl-sndfile". But you could add or replace it by "incudine".

Hi.

It looks like there's a bug in "contrib/cl-sndfile/cffi-sndfile.lisp".
The 'make-sndinfo' function definition tries to get the size of the
'info' foreign structure before this foreign structure is defined.

After moving the definition of 'make-sndinfo' at the end of the file,
compilation works.

I think you can report this issue upstream.

That's interesting. I was also suspicious about this function and mentioned it upstream but they said it is normal to do it like this so I just ignored it. Also I remember having tried out a dummy package, so I really believed it was ok.

Thanks for your help!
