no method named si_pid found for struct siginfo_t for armv7-unknown-linux-uclibceabihf

[asomers]

I tried this code:

fn main() {
    println!("Hello, world!");
}

cargo check -Zbuild-std --target armv7-unknown-linux-uclibceabihf

I expected to see this happen: it should work

Instead, this happened: the build fails like this:

I'm assuming that the linux kernel on that target still uses pretty much the same signal structure as most other ones so this is probably a libc issue that it lacks those accessors.

[asomers]

Probably, but it's a problem in the libc that's bundled with std, not the standalone crate. And since std itself doesn't compile, it's hard to bisect the standalone crate.

[the8472]

Bisecting shouldn't be needed, the uses in std were added in #117957.

More context: nightly-2023-11-20 should be the first version of toolchain that is affected

[jieyouxu]

Hi, since rust-lang/libc#3529 is merged, is this still an issue?

[asomers]

@jieyouxu that only fixes the problem in the libc crate. libc is vendored within the standard library, so it's necessary to update the vendored version.

[operutka]

@jieyouxu it's been merged into rust-lang/libc:main but the latest libc release 0.2.153 still does not contain it.

[operutka]

I believe this issue has been fixed in libc v0.2.156.

Build failure for armv7-unknown-linux-uclibceabihf nix-rust/nix#2200

Let me give it a test on the Nix side.

[SteveLauC]

Let me give it a test on the Nix side.

Yeah, tested on the Nix side, nix-rust/nix#2487, I think this issue can be closed now.
