bug#26791: Attempt to apply a string as a procedure during Hydra evaluation

[Mark H Weaver]

The error message is:

  ERROR: In procedure GNU with Linux-Libre 4.11 (beta):
  ERROR: Wrong type to apply: "GNU with Linux-Libre 4.11 (beta)"

Here's the head and tail of the output of the evaluator.  Unfortunately,
the relevant git commit is not printed.

Hi Mark,

This problem should be resolved by make clean-go && make, see here :

As far as I know, *every* evaluation on Hydra is a clean build from
scratch, so I'm not sure how to proceed.  In the meantime, our build
farm is essentially broken until this is resolved.

I've CC'd Ludovic in case he has more insight.

bug#26791: Attempt to apply a string as a procedure during Hydra evaluation

[Danny Milosavljevic]

Hi,

I think it always works (also without compilation) when I move the boot-parameters record definition up in gnu/system.scm (so it comes before its clients).

It's still reconfiguring now but it looks good.

If it works out, I'll post it here for review...

Hi,

Yeah I just pushed that as 8e815c5b6903a545c46b674c1cd1cc3180f835db.

The thing is that ‘boot-parameters’ is a macro, so it must be defined
before used.

Because of the way build-aux/compile-all.scm builds things (first loads
modules, then builds them), this error would not show up because the
macro would have been defined during the load phase.  However evaluation
on Hydra relies on auto-compilation, which does things the “normal” way.

I’ve started an evaluation of ‘master’ on Hydra.

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Unfortunately, this evaluation failed :(

This indicates another case of a macro being used before it is defined.
I don't have time at the moment to investigate further.

The new evaluation failed again, but with a different error this time:

bug#26791: Hydra doesn't run make before using Guix

For reference, the relevant commits are (newest first) 360874dd1c1aafddd82e389b9da09f69bddb2a20 (not really suspicious), 7e3f7acbe0885fd8a6e509fd0c309d1f4d9d3097, bf8b09169c7d8ae48ac99ea237b82867ee9aa885, 370ae085b5107a0928fd744a987fb4070bdf6a00, 83071b052a0585f7166245b7ba793436e104f8fe, 0315abe608007f1fed96cdcae21b6a83902b25e6, 9530e73b496fefe65dcb936825b6beda79f7fdf2, 33f0aa88155ee0718f21e7de24eb539cb9872217, 40fad1c24ce60076e26f6dc8096e4716d31d90c3 (!).

Note that this all works fine after Guix has been built using make, so I don't think the problem is in the source code of Guix.

As for that Hydra job:

It seems that hydra auto-compiles some Guix modules:

So this Hydra job should run make in /gnu/store/vsw3112dw48ai5arsxf1qsvma8y4fvqp-git-export first.

Unfortunately, I have no idea about Hydra - and "grep -r fetchgit ." inside "guix" doesn't turn up anything either.

Not a bug!  :-)

Hydra and Cuirass first go through an “evaluation” step, which consists
in producing a list of derivations + meta-data from Guix/GuixSD.
Concretely, Hydra runs build-aux/hydra/gnu-system.scm, which returns
that list (you can run “make hydra-jobs.scm” to see that result.)

As can be seen at the top of gnu-system.scm, the idea is to let Guile’s
auto-compilation kick in rather than have an explicit build step.  It
simplifies gnu-system.scm at the expense of providing messy output; it’s
also quite expensive.

I’m open to a brainstorming session on this.  I’m not sure how to
improve the situation myself.  We have a similar problem with ‘guix
pull’ in fact: should we first compile everything and then run, or
compile everything but the (gnu packages …) modules, or…?
