Build issue on Linux (Ubuntu 20)

[buchs]

# cmake .
-- Found LLVM 16.0.4
-- Using LLVMConfig.cmake in: /usr/lib/llvm-16/cmake
-- Building with -fPIC
CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND.
Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the CMake files:
lib_lldb
    linked by target "lldb-mi" in directory /root/lldb-mi/src

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
See also "/root/lldb-mi/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".
See also "/root/lldb-mi/CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log".

Note, for my system I have Clang 15 installed along side Clang 16. The former is linked through commands like clang, clang++, cc and c++. So I define these environment variables:

export CMAKE_C_COMPILER_ID='Clang'
export CMAKE_C_COMPILER='/usr/bin/clang-16'
export CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_ID='Clang'
export CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER='/usr/bin/clang++-16'
export LLDB_DEBUGSERVER_PATH='/usr/lib/llvm-16/lib/liblldb'

When building LLVM, did you build lldb?

 -DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS="clang;lldb"

[buchs]

Yes, lldb was built for the LLVM-16 toolchain. It was not for -15. But, to be clear, I am just using the apt package:

llvm_version='16'
curl -sS https://apt.llvm.org/llvm.sh -o llvm_sh
chmod +x llvm_sh
./llvm_sh $llvm_version all  &> /dev/null  # too much noise
rm llvm_sh
apt-get -qq install clang-format-$llvm_version

[sunshaoce]

I have tested it, and indeed it cannot be done this way. You can only build LLVM manually and then build lldb-mi.

llvm_path='~/llvm'

git clone https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git --depth=1 -b release/16.x
cd llvm-project
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$llvm_path  -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS="clang;lldb" -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++-15 -G Ninja ../llvm
ninja install

cd ../..

git clone https://github.com/lldb-tools/lldb-mi.git --depth=1
cd lldb-mi
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$llvm_path -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++-15 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$llvm_path -GNinja ..
ninja install

[buchs]

OK, thanks for looking into it.

@buchs - On Ubuntu avoiding this error just requires sudo apt install -y liblldb-15-dev, or whatever your correct version is. This avoids needing to build llvm yourself. apt list --installed | grep liblldb to see what version of lldb you have installed.

[vibrys]

I've just compiled lldb-mi on ubuntu.20.04. I happened to use llvm-18.1.8 that was installed through https://apt.llvm.org/llvm.sh script.

I did following steps to compile/install lldb-mi:

  prompt# apt install libcurl4-openssl-dev libedit-dev libzstd-dev
  prompt# apt install liblldb-18-dev
  prompt# mkdir Build-18-a6c8c66 && cd Build-18-a6c8c66
  prompt# /opt/cmake-3.29.3/bin/cmake -DLLVM_DIR=/lib/llvm-18/cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/lldb-18-mi-a6c8c66 ../ 2>&1 | tee cmake.log

unfortunatelly, lldb-mi crashes. Here are the details

As mentioned, although lldb-mi compilation succeeded, the cmake command's log keeps one quite strange line:

  -- Looking for os_signpost_interval_begin - not found
  -- Can't find LLVM shared library, falling back to static linking LLVMSupport    <--- this one
  -- Configuring done (4.4s)
  -- Generating done (0.0s)
  -- Build files have been written to: /usr/src/lldb-mi/Build

I have 2 questions:

1. if you happen to use lldb-mi on ubuntu (preferably 20.04) did you notice such line your configs?
2. which llvm version did you succeed lldb-mi to run against?

[vibrys]

maybe one more technicality:

using @KonanTheLibrarian 's script from #90 (here), didn't help here unfortunately.
Then I've used the same script to compile lldb-mi against llvm-17 and .... it works correct!
Also I DO NOT observe following line from cmake tool this time (please see above):

-- Can't find LLVM shared library, falling back to static linking LLVMSupport
