Could it be OOM? Builds on i386 are going to be more difficult due to resource limits. Try: -Wl,--no-keep-memory -Wl,--reduce-memory-overheads -g1 Sorry, but where should I put these flags? Ninja doesn't recognize them. I have 10 gigs of swap, and it is not full when the build fails. During the build the peak was around 1GB RAM + 2-3GB swap. You would put them in CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS, but they're not going to help if you're not running out of memory. I don't know how we can help with this, since there's not any useful error message from the linker. Can't we pass some arguments to something which will run the linker in verbose mode when it gets there? I don't know what. Then I guess it just doesn't work. I might try to build it on other environment, on other machine (in VirtualBox with 32 bit Linux, setting march=pentium3). But before that, I have to ask something. Because the whole purpose of this build for me was to create a version of WebKit which doesn't require SSE2 to run. Is that even possible or in WebKit's source there are hardcoded SSE2 instructions (like in Firefox, Chrome or Basilisk)? All of these browsers explicitly states in their system requirements that SSE2 is a must. But I couldn't find the system requirements for WebKit. Can you help me on this? Slightly off topic, but since you are a master of WebKit, I guess you would know. Midori works for me, I think because it is using an older version of Webkit, but for example surf or Web (Epiphany-browser), both don't work. For WebKitGTK+, SSE2 instructions are forbidden (except when building for x86_64) because that's what our distributors require. But I doubt all developers are aware of this, and I also doubt anybody ever tests on such old hardware. So it might require some effort to audit the codebase for unwanted SSE2 instructions to make sure they're not there and fix them if so. I created a Virtual Box VM on one of my other machines, it is a 4 core i5@3.5GHz with 8GB RAM. I gave the VM 4GB RAM. First I used this command: cmake .. -DPORT=GTK -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS="-march=pentium3" -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-march=pentium3" -DUSE_WOFF2=OFF -DENABLE_MINIBROWSER=ON -GNinja Then after ninja -j1 I got: [4/45] Linking CXX shared library lib/libwebkit2gtk-4.0.so.37.31.0 FAILED: lib/libwebkit2gtk-4.0.so.37.31.0 ... /usr/bin/i686-linux-gnu-ld.gold: fatal error: lib/libwebkit2gtk-4.0.so.37.31.0: mmap: failed to allocate 1895756280 bytes for output file: Cannot allocate memory collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed. Which is strange since the VM didn't even use 1GB of RAM, reported by htop. Also the host still had plenty of RAM, see attachment. So then I used the command: cmake .. -DPORT=GTK -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS="-march=pentium3 -Wl,--no-keep-memory -Wl,--reduce-memory-overheads -g1" -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-march=pentium3 -Wl,--no-keep-memory -Wl,--reduce-memory-overheads -g1" -DUSE_WOFF2=OFF -DENABLE_MINIBROWSER=ON -GNinja Then I got: [148/2065] Linking CXX executable bin/LLIntOffsetsExtractor FAILED: bin/LLIntOffsetsExtractor : && /usr/bin/c++ -fdiagnostics-color=always -Wno-expansion-to-defined -Wno-attributes -Wno-noexcept-type -Wno-maybe-uninitialized -Wwrite-strings -Wundef -Wpointer-arith -Wmissing-format-attribute -Wformat-security -Wcast-align -Wextra -Wall -march=pentium3 -Wl,--no-keep-memory -Wl,--reduce-memory-overheads -g1 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti -std=c++17 -O2 -g -DNDEBUG -fuse-ld=gold -Wl,--disable-new-dtags -rdynamic Source/JavaScriptCore/CMakeFiles/LLIntOffsetsExtractor.dir/llint/LLIntOffsetsExtractor.cpp.o -o bin/LLIntOffsetsExtractor lib/libWTFGTK.a lib/libbmalloc.a -ldl -licudata -licui18n -licuuc -lpthread -lgio-2.0 -lgobject-2.0 -lglib-2.0 -lz && : /usr/bin/i686-linux-gnu-ld.gold: --reduce-memory-overheads: unknown option /usr/bin/i686-linux-gnu-ld.gold: use the --help option for usage information collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed. I copied what you wrote, I don't know why -Wl is there two times, etc, I could do experiment with trial and error but it would take more time, easier to ask. So how to correctly use these parameters?

memory usage on host
Ah, you need to also pass -DUSE_LD_GOLD=OFF to use -Wl,--reduce-memory-overheads. That's probably worth trying anyway, since it's the ld.gold linker that is failing. (You need it twice because once is for the C compiler, and once is for the C++ compiler.) Hi, OK, now I got this: Linking CXX shared library lib/libwebkit2gtk-4.0.so.37.31.0 FAILED: lib/libwebkit2gtk-4.0.so.37.31.0 .. /usr/bin/i686-linux-gnu-ld: final link failed: Memory exhausted collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed. There were still more than 1.5GB space in the swap, also the host had 3GB physical free RAM too. Isn't this happening because on a 32 bit OS a process can use maximum 4GB memory? I could put 16GB extra RAM into this machine so I would have 24GB, but I think it might not help. Do I need to cross-compile then? Are there any instructions how to do it for WebKit? I don't know what to tell you... in Fedora we use -Wl,--no-keep-memory -Wl,--reduce-memory-overheads -g1. Since that didn't work for you, I guess attempting to cross compile would be reasonable. There are some instructions for cross-compiling for ARM (not what you want to do) at the bottom of https://trac.webkit.org/wiki/BuildingGtk. Good luck.... You might want to look up how Gentoo handles this. Just for the record, on the host I have 24GB RAM now, in the VM 17.8GB, the linking failed just like before, at that moment RAM utilization was around 3.8GB. So that's it, it is not possible to build 32 bit version of WebKit without cross-compile. Maybe I'll try with Fedora, but there shouldn't be a difference regarding this. I can assure you that all major Linux distributions are successfully building it without cross compiling, so you might want to investigate what they're doing. I installed Fedora 28 32bit but its kernel is not PAE so RAM is maxed at 3.5GB and I couldn't find a PAE kernel for it. I installed Lubuntu 64 bit, and WebKit compiled OK. I got a 2GB large .so file. Is this normal? Then I downloaded and compiled surf, it is working fine.

I don't think we have anything actionable here, so I'm going to close this. OK, the problem was -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo. It should be -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release This way it is possible to compile it on 32 bit systems. So the steps are: 1. Go to https://webkitgtk.org/releases/ 2. download the newest stable, extract, go into extracted folder 3. cmake -DPORT=GTK -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS="-march=pentium3 -Wl,--no-keep-memory -Wl,--reduce-memory-overheads -g0 -Os" -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-march=pentium3 -Wl,--no-keep-memory -Wl,--reduce-memory-overheads -g0 -Os" -DUSE_WOFF2=OFF -DUSE_LD_GOLD=OFF -DENABLE_MINIBROWSER=OFF -DENABLE_JIT=OFF -GNinja 4. ninja 5. sudo make install Maybe it could work with GOLD too without the reduce memory overheads stuffs. Just for the record, I forgot one step, it is between step #2 and step #3: ./Tools/gtk/install-dependencies (In reply to Michael Catanzaro from comment #16) > (In reply to karogyoker2+webkit from comment #15) > > I installed Fedora 28 32bit but its kernel is not PAE so RAM is maxed at > > 3.5GB and I couldn't find a PAE kernel for it. > > I installed Lubuntu 64 bit, and WebKit compiled OK.

Or it can be reduced to ~52MB by using -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release instead of -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo Just if somebody finds this in the future. |
