    This adds support for riscv32 and riscv64 builds to the depends system.

    The change consists of documentation and build system changes. The most significant change is an update of config.sub and config.guess inside zeromq patch, as the current version does not recognize the riscv* host tuples (there’s no new version of ZeroMQ yet with newer ones).

    Good thing: RISC-V 64-bit toolchain packages can be installed out of the box on Ubuntu 18.04+.

    I would also like to add RISC-V 64-bit executables to gitian, but this will not be possible until #12511 .

    @laanwj Have you been building with NO_QT=1?

    I’ve just tested a make HOST=riscv64-linux-gnu depends build on Ubuntu 18.04, after installing the RISC-V toolchain and am seeing:

    0Configuring qrencode...
    1checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
    2checking host system type... Invalid configuration `riscv64-linux-gnu': machine `riscv64' not recognized
    3configure: error: /bin/bash use/config.sub riscv64-linux-gnu failed
    

    Building with NO_QT=1 completes successfully.

    I wonder if there’s a less verbose patch we could et away with to fix the zeromq build?

  5. laanwj commented at 4:32 pm on June 27, 2018: member

    Thanks for testing. Good point: yes, I have built without Qt, same as we do for ARM. Should probably mention that in the documentation, though I don’t think there’s any RISC-V boards at this time with a capable enough GPU and HDMI/VGA out to run even a desktop GUI (though maybe it’s possible to connect one through the PCI-e slot? I don’t know).

    I wonder if there’s a less verbose patch we could et away with to fix the zeromq build?

    I’m sure it could be cut down to less lines if that’s really worthwhile, I might personally prefer the dumb solution of simply copying the new autoconf files though.

    I can test this on a HiFiveU board next week. The problem with running a full bitcoin main net instance on a physical riscv board is going to be I/O.

    In the meantime, try running in Qemu as it will probably have better I/O

    Running test_bitcoin would already be helpful, even if you don’t want to sync a chain.

    Good idea. I did this for the big-endian support, so it should certainly work for little-endian RISC-V.

    It runs X with a radeon graphics card and has more cores/memory/performance than the first machine I compiled bitcoin on. Bitcoin ATM vendors looking at high volume, low-cost embedded systems should probably be spending money on some evaluation systems.

    Nice. I should get that one too.

    @laanwj That’s very strange. It should be using the pure C++ SHA256 implementation. What SHA256 implementation does debug.log report (if you get that far)?

    @laanwj That’s very strange. It should be using the pure C++ SHA256 implementation. What SHA256 implementation does debug.log report (if you get that far)?

    It chooses the correct one:

    02018-06-27T19:16:24Z Using the 'standard' SHA256 implementation
    

    I’ll dive into what happens here.

  12. laanwj commented at 10:14 am on June 28, 2018: member

    It looks like the beginning of input in[] to SHA256D64 becomes corrupted by

    0        for (int j = 0; j < i; ++j) {
    1            CHash256().Write(in + 64 * j, 64).Finalize(out1 + 32 * j);
    2        }
    

    The function itself works correctly.

    I’m suspecting a miscompilation issue at the moment. It happens with -O1 and higher but not -O0. I’m not able to narrow it down to a specific optimization option, however it looks like it has something to do with computing stack offsets for inlining.

    I’d expect a newer toolchain will solve this, but if so it means the Ubuntu stock one (Ubuntu 7.3.0-16ubuntu3) is effectively broken that’s a disappointment.

  13. laanwj commented at 3:34 pm on June 29, 2018: member
    My sync in qemu is at block 270000, and has encountered no issues. I haven’t figured out yet why the crypto_tests/sha256d64 specifically has this issue. Strangely enough, moving the in array to the outer scope makes the test pass. I intend to try compilng with a more recent version of gcc to see if the test problem is resolved.
  14. tmagik commented at 11:00 pm on June 30, 2018: none

    I attempted to make a test case, and simplified the following down:

    0static inline uint64_t InsecureRandBits(int bits) { return insecure_seed++; }
    

    however this does not fail, so I’m now highly suspicious of inlining

    @laanwj Debian’s gcc-8 appears to fix the problem

    0riscv64-linux-gnu-gcc-8 --version
    1riscv64-linux-gnu-gcc-8 (Debian 8.1.0-8) 8.1.0
    
  18. laanwj commented at 1:42 pm on July 4, 2018: member
    @tmagic Thanks for reproducing. Happy to hear it’s solved with newer gcc. It might be better to remove the note about using ubuntu’s cross-toolchain packages, then, until they have gcc 8 like debian.

It also updates the depends config.guess/sub to latest upstream. @laanwj You can cherry pick from there if you’d like. Note that branch doesn’t include re-running ./autogen.sh like below. I’ll comment about that shortly.

    Is it definitely necessary to re-run autogen.sh? Afaik configure just calls out to config.guess/config.sub. Unless there’s some weird globbing involved, I should think that replacing those files would be enough.

    I’ve done some more testing of this using a branch that doesn’t patch zmq’s config.guess/sub, and instead just copies over our local versions, which I’ve updated from upstream.

    re running ./autogen.sh after copying. With or without './autogen.sh I see this warning from the zmq build:

    0Staging zeromq...
    15.	make[1]: warning: jobserver unavailable: using -j1.  Add '+' to parent make rule.	5.	make[1]: warning: jobserver unavailable: using -j1.  Add '+' to parent make rule.
    

    The other difference (at least in output) is: With ./autogen.sh:

    0libtool: warning: remember to run 'libtool --finish /home/ubuntu/bitcoin/depends/riscv64-linux-gnu/lib'
    

    Without ./autogen.sh:

    0libtool: install: warning: remember to run `libtool --finish /home/ubuntu/bitcoin/depends/riscv64-linux-gnu/lib'
    

    Also noticed that when I pass --enable-werror to configure I see:
