AddressSanitizer failed to allocate 0x0 (0) bytes of SetAlternateSignalStack (error code: 22)

[Bmixo]

Description of the bug:

after building explorer, run bazel-bin/explorer/explorer and get error msg “AddressSanitizer failed to allocate 0x0 (0) bytes of SetAlternateSignalStack (error code: 22)”

What did you do, or what's a simple way to reproduce the bug?

i just simpely follow the instruction frome github page

# Install bazelisk using Homebrew.
$ brew install bazelisk

# Install Clang/LLVM using Homebrew.
# Many Clang/LLVM releases aren't built with options we rely on.
$ brew install llvm
$ export PATH="$(brew --prefix llvm)/bin:${PATH}"

# Download Carbon's code.
$ git clone https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang
$ cd carbon-lang

# Build and run the explorer.
$ bazel run //explorer -- ./explorer/testdata/print/format_only.carbon

[FromCppToCarbon]

I have same problem in several Linux distro .
including spirallinux, kdeneon, sparky Linux
and not the last openmandriva .
But it is working fine in MX Linux and LinuxLite
I wish to know the answer because i need to work on spirallinux .

[FromCppToCarbon]

By the way, MX LInux and Linux Lite are working by using llvm@14 .
some having fatal error : zlib.h file not found and solved by installing libz-dev as found the answer of some programmers in the net.
gecko Linux and void Linux the file is not available in their pool.

after building explorer, run bazel-bin/explorer/explorer and get error msg “AddressSanitizer failed to allocate 0x0 (0) bytes of SetAlternateSignalStack (error code: 22)”

I've been trying to rewrite the install instructions to use apt instead of brew on Linux, partly because of this issue (I think brew's llvm 15 install has some issues on linux). You might be able to fix it with bazel clean.

However, if you want to try the in-review instructions, look at #2203, specifically here. Note you can uninstall brew, I'm trying to avoid advising it on Linux now.

Another option is to use Docker and VS Code, we have a config for devcontainer. (the same DockerFile should also be usable without VS Code, and I'll probably look into something more vanilla docker based on #1618 if that PR has fallen off the contributor's radar, but VS Code has some extension support for the existing setup)

some having fatal error : zlib.h file not found and solved by installing libz-dev as found the answer of some programmers in the net.
gecko Linux and void Linux the file is not available in their pool.

Sorry, I don't know how to install zlib on those distributions. I've mostly been looking at Debian and Ubunutu.

[FromCppToCarbon]

Thanks for the reply jonmeow ,
Following is also one error along with the above error mentioned by [Bmixo]
i got this error in spiral linux Debian based .

Use --sandbox_debug to see verbose messages from the sandbox
external/llvm-project/llvm/lib/Support/Compression.cpp:21:10: fatal error: 'zlib.h' file not found

[jonmeow]

To be clear, zlib is required. There are instructions to install through apt:
https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/blob/trunk/docs/project/contribution_tools.md#zlib-linux-only

[jonmeow]

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/zlib does show a zlib1g-dev for me

[FromCppToCarbon]

Thanks for the links
I have some observations , let me finish some tests and i will be back

[FromCppToCarbon]

well Carbon Language in Aubuntu Budgie is working fine ,
i got the same error : fatal error: zlib.h: no such file or directory
so solved by : $ sudo apt install zlib1g-dev .
zlib 1.2.11 has a bug . see here http://zlib.net/
zlib-devel for RPM
may be some distro installing 1.2.11 and causing errors .

[CaothicPechan]

Hi there,
I'm getting the same error, but I'm using WSL, I have already installed zlib as well. Do you know if there is any other solution for this?

Which error?

When I'm trying to run explorer.

What version of clang are you using and how did you install it? As I noted above, linux brew clang 15 doesn't work with AddressSanitizer (I don't know why, probably won't investigate because we can advise apt).

Assuming you used homebrew:

1. If you want homebrew, use llvm@14.
2. If you want future versions of llvm, use apt (see contribution tools -- this recently changed to stop recommending homebrew on linux-based platforms)
3. Install llvm 15 some other way (e.g., https://releases.llvm.org/, or https://llvm.org/docs/GettingStartedVS.html)

[CaothicPechan]

As a note.

Initially I was using 15 so I tried with llvm@14 and it didn't work either

Homebrew clang version 14.0.6
Target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/opt/llvm/bin

I will look for other contribution tools. I will let you know.

I had the same issue and just wish to share my solution it might be of use to someone.

I tried installing Clang 14 using the sudo apt-get -y install clang-14 command but it did not work. I read somewhere that clang 14 installation (using sudo apt-get -y install) was not supported with Ubuntu 20.04.
I made an upgrade to Ubuntu 22.04 and tried the installation again without using homebrew and it worked for me. I also made sure to follow the contribution tools install instructions as other websites did not have the python install instructions and made use of the brew install method and Ubuntu 20.04.

I do apologize if my methods or documentation of my steps is missing something I did a lot of things before it started working and I do not know which of them might have made little differences. The steps I mentioned are the ones which made noticeable difference in my compile errors.

hi,

brew remove llvm
sudo dnf install llvm
bazel clean
bazel run _

The above worked for me. If that does not work then try:

bazel clean --expunge

if that doesn't work, then i'm sorry i got nothin.

[github-actions]

We triage inactive PRs and issues in order to make it easier to find active work. If this issue should remain active or becomes active again, please comment or remove the inactive label. The long term label can also be added for issues which are expected to take time.
This issue is labeled inactive because the last activity was over 90 days ago.

I would suspect that #2236 (comment) is probably right for this particular issue, that a bazel clean was needed to remove incompatible build artifacts that bazel incorrectly re-used when the llvm install changed. I think we've adjusted how this works in caching now so it should behave better (https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/blob/trunk/bazel/cc_toolchains/clang_cc_toolchain_config.bzl#L197-L199)
