Nice!

Concept ACK

ok it seems there was a reason why -static was there:
https://cirrus-ci.com/task/5119836217933824?logs=test#L185
libtool: warning: undefined symbols not allowed in x86_64-w64-mingw32 shared libraries; building static only (and a few other messages then when linking the benchmarks)

Maybe ./configure --disable-shared does the job then without specifying CFLAGS. In the end it doesn't matter for CI, I was just curious because we could use this to add build docs for mingw.

Can you also change
file *tests || true to file *tests* || true ? Otherwise it won't match the ".exe"...

[sipa]

@real-or-random That wasn't the reason actually. I tried this first in the minisketch repository (see sipa/minisketch#33), and there the issue is that C++ builds to building against shared libgcc by default (something related to being able to catch exceptions across libraries), but I couldn't get that to work with Wine. For C, static libgcc is the default, so this problem doesn't occur. I've just removed it.

[real-or-random]

Ok makes sense. We can take care of more improvements to mingw later then (#923).

ACK mod the file thing.

Done.

Hm any idea why wine complains so loudly (on cirrus). Is that supposed to be ignored?

it looks like wine32 is missing, you should install it.
as root, please execute "apt-get install wine32"

[sipa]

It's only testing 64-bit binaries, so it doesn't need wine32 I think. We could probably just add it to the dockerfile to silence it.

[real-or-random]

AFAIU wine32 would be required to run 32-bit binaries, which we don't need.

I'm not sure why Wine warns. Maybe because 32bit is still a common thing on Windows and it's an issue that many people run into?

@sipa Ok, I played around with the docker container. If I'm not mistaken:

• If you install wine (which pulls in wine64 as dependency), then wine64 <cmd> (or wine64-stable <cmd>) works without the warning
• If you install just wine64, then WINESERVER=/usr/lib/wine/wineserver64 wine64-stable <cmd> works without the warning. (Indeed, without the env variable wineserver can't be found.)

Both are fine but the first is more natural...

By the way, wine xcopy works better as a dummy command. There's no true on windows.

[sipa]

@real-or-random Ok, used your first variant, and also changed true -> xcopy.

[real-or-random]

Ok, great. Now there seems to be one final hiccup:

WARNING: could not read 16 bytes from /dev/urandom; falling back to insecure PRNG

( https://cirrus-ci.com/task/4912068852711424?logs=test#L258 )

I can sometimes reproduce this in the Docker image and then the seed always has some random bytes in front followed by zeros. You can cherry-pick this fix: real-or-random@625b1aa, see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/c-runtime-library/reference/fopen-wfopen?view=msvc-160#generic-text-routine-mappings.
