ndk-r5 app build problems

[Futumsh]

I've got an application with a large ndk component, which builds and
runs fine using the crystax version of ndk-r4b, and am attempting to
get it building using ndk-r5.

Build errors:

On windows, after source files for the first static library build,
when it reaches generating the first static library:
make: execvp: /cygdrive/c/work/android/android-ndk-r5/toolchains/arm-
linux-androideabi-4.4.3/prebuilt/windows/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-ar:
Argument list too long

On linux (Ubuntu 8.04.4 x86-64):
/home/user/work/android/android-ndk-r5/toolchains/arm-linux-
androideabi-4.4.3/prebuilt/linux-x86/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-g++: /

user/work/android/android-ndk-r5/toolchains/arm-linux-
androideabi-4.4.3/prebuilt/linux-x86/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-g++)

Startup time on windows:

With ndk-r4b, startup time before compiles begin for this project were
on the order of a few seconds. With ndk-r5, it takes about 3 minutes
before the first file starts compiling.

Anyone know how to address these problems offhand, before I look into
them in depth?

Hmmm, you may have a really long argument list here. There are several ways that could help you work around this:

1/ Try installing the NDK and your project in top-level directories to make the final build commands smaller. What I mean would be:

- install the ndk as /cygdrive/c/ndkr5/

- put your project under /cydrive/c/myproj/

2/ Try generating static libraries that contain fewer object files. I.e. instead of generating libfoo.a, try to make libfoo1.a + libfoo2.a + libfoo3.a, where each one only contains a third of the object files. Not ideal, but would help to reduce the size of the static archive command.

Yep, we just noticed that the 2.3 SDK Linux binaries were all generated on Ubuntu Lucid machines which come with EGLibc 2.11. In other words, they can't run on Ubuntu Hardy (which provides 2.7 only).

We're currently working on regenerating new Linux binaries,  but it will probably take a few days to appear. Until then, try to run on an Ubuntu Lucid installation, or try regenerating the binaries from scratch:

cd ndk

build/tools/rebuild-all-prebuilts.sh `pwd`

(note: this is long, it takes about 7 minutes on a 2.4GHz 8-core z600, which is a very beefy machine)

See docs/DEVELOPMENT.html for more details about rebuilding the prebuilt binaries from scratch.

 

Startup time on windows:

With ndk-r4b, startup time before compiles begin for this project were
on the order of a few seconds.  With ndk-r5, it takes about 3 minutes
before the first file starts compiling.

This is weird. Do you know if there is disk activity during these 3 minutes or just the CPU burning?

Can you provide the output of "ndk-build NDK_LOG=1 NDK_DEBUG_MODULES=1" too?

 

Anyone know how to address these problems offhand, before I look into
them in depth?

Thanks for the prompt response. I'll rebuild the linux toolchain and
that should fix one of my problems. Requested info on the long pause
before compiles is below.

If there's disk access going on during the long pauses, it's
relatively little, indistinguishable from normal activity. It looks
like roughly one cpu core consumed by whatever it's doing at the
time. There's one long pause per APP_ABI specified (we're building
for armeabi and armeabi-v7a), and the pause occurs just after the '---
end of modules list'.

Output follows (source file lists snipped so it's only moderately
long).

A little further info on this, now that I've rebuild the toolchain for
linux: startup time prior to compiles is about 4 seconds on linux, as
opposed to 3 minutes on windows, so whatever is causing this is likely
cygwin-related.

problem is due to hundreds of executions of 'cygpath' from build
system

dirty hack:

seek for
build/core/definitions.mk (in android ndk root folder)

change string
host-path = $(if $(strip $1),$(shell cygpath -m $1),)

to
host-path = $(if $(strip $1),$(patsubst /cygdrive/c/%,C:/%,$1),)

watch for the drive letter...

Ah yes, that would be a likely explanation. I didn't realize cygpath was so slow, but I should have known better, it's cygwin after all :-(

 

dirty hack:

seek for
build/core/definitions.mk (in android ndk root folder)

change string
host-path = $(if $(strip $1),$(shell cygpath -m $1),)

to
host-path = $(if $(strip $1),$(patsubst /cygdrive/c/%,C:/%,$1),)

Nice. Note: this only works if your NDK installation *and* project path are located on the C: drive, and if you are using the default cygwin drive mapping (e.g. C:/ <-> /cygwin/c/)

Anything else is going to be a bit more tricky to handle.

Historical point: The GCC toolchain doesn't support cygwin anymore but we still depend on it to run ndk-build / ndk-gdb.

I hope to get rid of this dependency in a future release completely (which will involve providing prebuilt binaries for GNU Make, awk, sh and a few other Unix utils); the calls to "cygpath -m" will disappear completely then.

Hi and thanks for pinpointing the source of that problem that haunted
me.

That's exactly what I was observing using cygwin too.

I also add to correct the android NDK path (mounted in /android under
cygwin), which for me is in C:/dev/android doing the following:
host-path = $(if $(strip $1),$(patsubst /android/%,C:/dev/android/%,$
(patsubst /cygdrive/c/%,C:/%,$1)),)

I also noticed that the NDK does not tolerate anymore include paths
provided through LOCAL_CFLAGS.

Leaving aside the problem of proper QC from google (I wonder how such
a problem didn't appear), would the NDK team have sufficient man-power
to offer more frequent updates or at least "hotfixes" elsewhere than
deep inside groups?

Best regards,
Christophe

FWIW, I had exactly the same problem as Futumsh with NDK5 (whereas
NDKr4b worked fine). The first of these two suggested workarounds
(shortening the NDK directory path) alone didn't fix my problem, but
adding the second workaround (shortening the project path) did. In my
case, I was building ffmpeg libraries.

Can someone please upload a tar.gz of the prebuilt tool binaries built
on 9.10?
