Segfault while compiling `rustc_codegen_spirv`

[schell]

Expected Behaviour

cargo build should finish without error.

Example & Steps To Reproduce

Run cargo build after a clean clone of the repo.

System Info

• Rust: rustc 1.79.0-nightly (244da22fa 2024-04-23)
• OS: macOS 15.0 (24A335)
• GPU: integrated

Output

error: could not compile `rustc_codegen_spirv` (lib)

Then I invoke lldb and do:

command source lldb_env_setup.lldb

Which then shows:

It builds in --release! But it won't otherwise.

[utensil]

I have the same issue, cargo run --release works for example runners/wgpu, but has the same error if not with --release.

[LegNeato]

Interesting, CI only appears to check x86_64 on Mac:

os: macOS-latest
target: x86_64-apple-darwin

Though the docs say latest is arm? 🤔

https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-github-hosted-runners/using-github-hosted-runners/about-github-hosted-runners#standard-github-hosted-runners-for-public-repositories

And it looks like CI only uses --release 😩

[LegNeato]

I was able to update rust-gpu to nightly-2024-06-20 and this crash went away. It was still there under nightly-2024-05-20.

Many of the tests fail with hacks to get around the alloca changes preventing us from updating (rust-lang/rust@f4426c1) but the compiling works at least which points to an old llvm or rustc issue unrelated to rust-gpu.

[LegNeato]

@eddyb found the cause:

• rustc 1.78.0 segfault on MacOS / M1 rust-lang/rust#125053

nightly-2024-05-21 has the fix

[eddyb]

Likely culprit: llvm/llvm-project@70579c9

This leaves Feb 14th - May 20th as the range with the bug, i.e. between:

• Update to LLVM 18 rust-lang/rust#120055
• Update to LLVM 18.1.6 rust-lang/rust#125288

Looking at the report (rust-lang/rust#125053), it is weirdly specific. I wonder if it's in code we control.

* thread #8, name = 'opt 4zue6wczm9w1glco'

@schell if you have the time, it might be useful to try to add -C save-temps and hopefully get access to the 4zue6wczm9w1glco codegen-unit before it's optimized.

[schell]

Nice sleuthing @eddyb and @LegNeato. I'll try it out when I can 🙇 .

[eddyb]

Found a relatively low-effort way to inject lldb (doesn't even cause rebuilds!):

error: could not compile `rustc_codegen_spirv` (lib)

Then:

$ env $(rustc --print=sysroot)/lib/rustlib/aarch64-apple-darwin/bin/llvm-dis \

$ cargo install rustfilt
$ rg '[^,{]( \{ )+\{\}, ' target/debug/deps/rustc_codegen_spirv.4q5ivfep7qt5yoow.rcgu.no-opt.ll | rustfilt
@<rustc_middle::ty::list::RawList<(), _>>::empty::EMPTY = external global { {}, i64, [7 x i64], [0 x {}] }

(note the 4q5ivfep7qt5yoow I took from the crashing thread name!)

Now, if it is that symbol, that's bad news because it's in rustc itself, i.e.:

$ nm ~/.rustup/toolchains/nightly-2024-04-24-aarch64-apple-darwin/lib/librustc_driver-ca847c7e3a88e281.dylib \
  | rg _RNvNvMsh_NtNtCsbqr1HCq8ilm_12rustc_middle2ty4listINtB7_7RawListupE5empty5EMPTY
000000000506c680 S __RNvNvMsh_NtNtCsbqr1HCq8ilm_12rustc_middle2ty4listINtB7_7RawListupE5empty5EMPTY

Does this mean nobody on M1 could've contributed to rustc in rust-lang/rust? Or is this "unoptimized" mode so unlikely to be applied to rustc development? (Or am I looking at the wrong plausible cause)

EDIT: the real culprit is a load from that global variable:

$ rg 'load.*@_RNvNvMsh_NtNtCsbqr1HCq8ilm_12rustc_middle2ty4listINtB7_7RawListupE5empty5EMPTY' target/debug/deps/rustc_codegen_spirv.4q5ivfep7qt5yoow.rcgu.ll
17832:  %119 = load i64, ptr @_RNvNvMsh_NtNtCsbqr1HCq8ilm_12rustc_middle2ty4listINtB7_7RawListupE5empty5EMPTY, align 8, !dbg !68816

(not sure yet if we can avoid it, but optimizations simply replace it with 0...)
