Description

It is very weird indeed: compiler takes WARNING: too small maximum for v(ector heap)size '0' ignored, the current usage 64M is already larger WARNING: too small maximum for v(ector heap)size '0' ignored, the current usage 64M is already larger as a set of arguments.

And it's not the only case.

So it only happens on i386? Cannot say anything at the moment, but I will try reproducing it.

  1. S. Perhaps, worth adding a tag for i386 and add other affected ports.

Nothing related to i386. Sorry, I just now reached it.

This must be fixed ASAP, of course, I will look into this now.

Likely upstream has broken something in R itself, which is rather upsetting.

comment:6 in reply to:  2 Changed 2 weeks ago by barracuda156

Replying to ryandesign:

And it's not the only case.

Okay, I do not yet know why, but perhaps I know what is broken:

PKG_LIBS = `$(R_HOME)/bin/Rscript -e "Rcpp:::LdFlags()"`

This fails to work correctly now. Since the packages themselves are not changed, it is likely broken in R 4.4.0. Though not impossible that elsewhere, just very few packages use this odd invocation for ldflags.

comment:7 Changed 13 days ago by barracuda156

I reverted to an older version of R-Rcpp, and the error remained. So it is either R itself or still R-Rcpp, but triggered by these warnings which were introduced in R 4.4.0.

UPD. Let's see if the upstream of R-Rcpp could help us: https://github.com/RcppCore/Rcpp/issues/1302

So we have a fix now, but I need to know which packages fail, since it has to be fixed on packages' side. Is there a way to find that out from buildbots' results without peeping into every log?

comment:10 Changed 13 days ago by barracuda156

We may have three issues here :)

  1. A bug in startup.c (?) in R, which uses wrong types when determining memory limits. It also seems to use Linux defines for macOS.

Something like this will work, perhaps: https://github.com/wshanks/qiskit-aer/commit/11f6afa311ba609eeb3bca37ed01b797076739f9 But with the fixed type MinMaxVSize (which R source uses). This perhaps leads to silly warnings being set in the first place. So even when starting R now,

36-170% /opt/local/bin/R
WARNING: too small maximum for v(ector heap)size '0' ignored, the current usage 64M is already larger

WARNING: too small maximum for v(ector heap)size '0' ignored, the current usage 64M is already larger


R version 4.4.0 (2024-04-24) -- "Puppy Cup"
Copyright (C) 2024 The R Foundation for Statistical Computing
Platform: powerpc-apple-darwin10.0.0d2 (32-bit)
  1. A bug somewhere, which interprets that as objects to pass to the linker. It is probably in Rcpp, however the position of upstream is that Rcpp:::LdFlags() should not be used as deprecated a decade ago.

It should be easier to fix this in R to get rid of the warning string, though it will leave the second bug unfixed – but it won't affect us.

  1. Packages which use a deprecated call – but there are apparently many of such, we cannot bother fixing each one.

Ticket with R upstream: https://bugs.r-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18713

I will make a PR with a fix now.

I report problems as I happen to notice them, usually because a build failure just happened on the buildbot while I was looking at the waterfall. We don't have a way to find all ports that failed due to a particular error message. Buildbot build information is collected by the ports web site, for example at https://ports.macports.org/all_builds/ , but the ports web site does not offer an API for retrieving that information.

comment:14 Changed 13 days ago by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)

We do keep track of which ports failed to build in each builder's failcache directory so I rescheduled builds of every failed R port which should appear here:

https://build.macports.org/builders/ports-10.6_i386-watcher/builds/58058

comment:15 Changed 12 days ago by barracuda156

Unfortunately, the issue seems not to be resolved on buildbots. Example with R-stringfish: https://build.macports.org/builders/ports-10.6_i386-builder/builds/164395/steps/install-port/logs/stdio

This is odd, since it does seem to have resolved it for me.

There is a hard solution of patching out the call which triggers this, but gonna be ugly and time-consuming.

comment:16 Changed 12 days ago by barracuda156

Well, we could obviously revert a commit which introduces these warnings for i386 builds of R. That shall solve the practical problem, but then the patch has to be carried over.

UPD. FWIW, on ppc the error does not occur now. Just tested on Rosetta, R starts up normally now:

UPD2. So it is fixed for GCC builds (including i386), but not for Clang builds. What do you think, just revert a problematic commit for now, when clang is used on x86 32-bit?
