1 2017-08-09 00:38:55 0|earlz|Has anyone tried porting the gitian build system to run on xenial instead of trusty since trusty is getting old and GCC 4.8's C++11 support is considered experimental?
2 2017-08-09 00:41:52 0|sipa|4.8 is enough
3 2017-08-09 00:51:01 0|earlz|Even with the (still somewhat far away) 2019 EOL for Trusty?
4 2017-08-09 00:51:45 0|sipa|we don't use any c++11 features that aren't in gcc 4.8
5 2017-08-09 00:52:52 0|gmaxwell|jnewbery: I really think we should split the PR and merge the mark-used and topup if possible stuff, and make the shutdown and don't update parts a seperate PR. The first part is done, solves the issue for unlocked wallets. And even for locked wallets results in rescan instructions that we can give to succesfully rescan "(unlock the wallet with a long time, run rescan)"... and doesn't have an r
6 2017-08-09 00:52:58 0|gmaxwell|isk of making things worse for anyone.
7 2017-08-09 00:53:15 0|earlz|My concern isn't bitcoin itself, but rather it's dependencies will start using C++11 features, making for more and more patches being required for gitian compiles
8 2017-08-09 00:53:47 0|sipa|earlz: i'm confused
9 2017-08-09 00:54:01 0|sipa|gitian is a fully deterministic environment, we control all the dependencies
10 2017-08-09 00:54:09 0|sipa|and their exact version
11 2017-08-09 00:54:36 0|earlz|yes of course, but at some point there will be a discussion "no, we can't upgrade boost because it will require patching out their use of things gcc 4.8 doesn't support"
12 2017-08-09 00:54:50 0|sipa|heh, then we'll just upgrade gcc...
13 2017-08-09 00:55:52 0|earlz|that seems... non-trivial without also upgrading from trusty to xenial or building our own compilers within gitian as another dependency
14 2017-08-09 00:56:43 0|sipa|which we should do anyway
15 2017-08-09 00:58:14 0|earlz|heh at that point might as well make a deterministic linux distro too ;)
16 2017-08-09 00:58:32 0|earlz|but seriously, I guess it's nothing to worry about for now, just concerning for the future, and if EOL affects gitian builds using trusty
17 2017-08-09 01:03:28 0|gmaxwell|earlz: eventually our depends system will compile GCC.
18 2017-08-09 01:03:56 0|gmaxwell|earlz: and wrt upgrading normally the barrier there is just that it often restricts our ability to produce binaries that will run on older systems.
19 2017-08-09 01:06:00 0|earlz|What is the official target for "older systems"? Like what distros and such?
20 2017-08-09 01:09:15 0|eck|earlz: btw if you wanted to upgrade gcc on gitian you'd probably have to upgrade it on travis as well, which is non-trivial/challenging, as trusty is the latest release supported by travis (and they didn't even roll that out until relatively recently)
21 2017-08-09 01:09:48 0|eck|thre are some changes they made to the std::string ABI in GCC 5.1+ but I'm not sure how pertinent they are here
22 2017-08-09 01:10:01 0|earlz|wow really? That's ridiculous
23 2017-08-09 01:10:30 0|eck|it's not ridiculous, c++11 changed the std::string spec
24 2017-08-09 01:11:05 0|eck|https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/manual/using_dual_abi.html
25 2017-08-09 01:11:08 0|earlz|No I mean about Travis just recently supporting a 4 year old distro
26 2017-08-09 01:11:52 0|earlz|regarding std::string ABI stuff, would that really matter that much? I know compiling Bitcoin outside of Gitian (ie with system deps) works fine in every version of GCC I've tried
27 2017-08-09 01:13:47 0|eck|libstdc++ now supports both ABIs but it would be an issue if you built an executable that used the new ABI and tried to run it on a system with an old copy of libstdc++
28 2017-08-09 01:15:48 0|earlz|ah, and I assume static linking of stdc++ isn't feasible?
29 2017-08-09 01:20:22 0|eck|i would recommend against it, anyway it would presumably be less of an issue in a year when trusty is closer to EOL
30 2017-08-09 01:22:15 0|cfields_|we static link libstdc++
31 2017-08-09 01:22:21 0|cfields_|so the abi is not an issue
32 2017-08-09 01:23:48 0|Chris_Stewart_5|funny, wumpus and i had a convo about upgrading gcc earlier today
33 2017-08-09 01:24:27 0|cfields_|yes, it was on my list for 0.15 but i didn't make it :(
34 2017-08-09 01:24:38 0|cfields_|0.16 will use a self-built toolchain
35 2017-08-09 01:24:58 0|Chris_Stewart_5|Is there consensus on what the oldest version of gcc will be that we support?
36 2017-08-09 01:25:16 0|cfields_|well that's independent of gitian and the release process
37 2017-08-09 01:25:17 0|Chris_Stewart_5|Just 4.9.x instead of 4.8?
38 2017-08-09 01:26:25 0|Chris_Stewart_5|What does gcc version have to do with a self built toolchain? Does your self built toolchain stuff require a bunch of fancy c++11 features?
39 2017-08-09 01:28:11 0|cfields_|no. maybe i'm the one who conflated things there. I'm not sure what you meant by "upgrading gcc". If you mean "bumping the minimum version required", i doubt that'll change soon
40 2017-08-09 01:30:57 0|Chris_Stewart_5|ah, yes that is what i meant.

49 2017-08-09 07:19:28 0|kallewoof|sipa: gotcha, thanks!
50 2017-08-09 07:39:06 0|achow101|kallewoof: see bip 141: "New inv types MSG_WITNESS_TX and MSG_WITNESS_BLOCK are added, only for use in getdata. Inventory messages themselves still use just MSG_TX and MSG_BLOCK"
51 2017-08-09 07:40:43 0|achow101|kallewoof: the response to an inv is a getdata, in which we will specify that we want the witnesses by setting MSG_WITNESS_FLAG. this also means that we won't break compatibility with old nodes
52 2017-08-09 07:49:05 0|kallewoof|achow101: Thanks for clarifying. I sort of missed that INV had a successor, or I forgot. I haven't dug around here in awhile.
53 2017-08-09 07:56:05 0|sipa|it's similar to BIP37's MSG_FILTERED_BLOCK btw
