Description

Across multiple PHP versions (7.2.x, 7.3.x, 7,4.x, 8.x), when building on Alpine Linux I have had to edit the Makefile and reorder the libraries in the PHP_MODULES variable so the tests run, otherwise all tests fail because a library relied on a prerequisite that was loaded out of order.

I'm guessing this doesn't occur on distributions that don't use something like musl libc, which might be somewhat maliciously compliant when it comes to handling libraries at runtime like this.

PHP Version

8.1.11

Operating System

Alpine Linux

    Please can you give the error message. In particular, which modules are presumably failing to be loaded as they are order dependent on something else.

    Also, please can you say how you are installing the extensions. Or even better, provide a github repo containing a docker/docker-compose container that shows the problem.

    Please can you give the error message. In particular, which modules are presumably failing to be loaded as they are order dependent on something else.

    In this case it's mysqli and pdo_mysql that rely on mysqlnd, but I've also seen it with xml and wddx in 7.2.x (I know it's EOL but might offer a clue as to what's going on here)

    Also, please can you say how you are installing the extensions. Or even better, provide a github repo containing a docker/docker-compose container that shows the problem.

    Here is my configure options for 8.0.24:

    I also build in a dedicated build folder, in case that makes a difference. I am running a test build, and I will post a log along with my generated Makefile once it completes.

    Are you able to reproduce this in a particular Alpine Linux container image?

    Please can you give the error message.

    Error messages are clearer than descriptions. Please can you provide the error message you're seeing.

    Please can you provide the error message you're seeing.

    Like I said, I am generating the log which will show the error I'm getting.

    I remembered head is a thing. Here's the first 100 lines, can supply full log on request. Makefile is attached.

    buildozer:~/php-8.0.24/_testbuildcd$ head -100 maketest.log

Build complete.
Don't forget to run 'make test'.

    Just in case it matters, can you say which version of Alpine you're using, which should be displayable with either lsb_release -a or alpine -version?

    To note for others, PHP_MODULES is a m4/configure generated thing.

    I don't have either of those commands but I can show you the contents of /etc/alpine-release:

    Fair point. It's also got the same cause - libraries loaded out of order. Could this be an issue caused by musl and how it handles libraries, rather than anything that can/should be done in PHP itself? And if so, will I just have to soldier on with editing the Makefile to run the tests?

    It could be many things. I personally wouldn't like to guess.

    If you want someone to investigate it, finding or providing an Alpine Linux container that has the required libraries installed to compile PHP would allow someone else to investigate it.

    There are quite a few people who provide PHP on alpine...finding out where their build container is might be good useful. I'm personally not going to spend a few hours trying to get a PHP build environment on alpine working.

    I followed a guide on creating a Dockerfile and adapted it to this use case. It's my first proper go at this, so please be brutal in your criticisms.

    https://gist.githubusercontent.com/thirdwheel/057af38cf8384dd3184cea8a28a9dd8a/raw/Dockerfile

    Use it to build the image, run it, exec into sh and run the build.sh script with a PHP version (word of warning, it will use all available processors for the build, so don't run this on anything where CPU time is scarce):

    ./build.sh 8.1.11

    Once it builds, make test to show the error. I have installed nano so you can see how moving mysqlnd.la to the start of the PHP_MODULES variable allows the tests to run.

    This issue isn't limited to Alpine. I can reproduce on OSX with:

    ./configure \
--without-iconv \
--without-pcre-jit \
--without-pear \
--without-sqlite3 \
--without-pdo-sqlite \
--enable-mysqlnd=shared \
--with-mysqli=shared,mysqlnd \
--with-pdo-mysql=shared,mysqlnd

    The issue is when building all of mysqlnd, mysqli and pdo_mysql as shared extensions, the loading order matters. Forcing mysqlnd to be loaded before the others can be done for tests. Not sure how to do it for installed PHP.

    Forcing mysqlnd to be loaded before the others can be done for tests. Not sure how to do it for installed PHP.

    For runtime, it's a configuration issue with a documented solution already. Just like how mbstring needs to be loaded before exif, mysqlnd will need to be loaded before mysqli/pdo_mysql.

    The issue at hand is that the tests fail when mysqlnd is built as a shared extension.

    Ran into this on openindiana earlier this week (see OpenIndiana/oi-userland#28067); we had a config similar to the one above in #9727 (comment) and it prevented all tests from running. We are working around it by no longer building and packaging mysqlnd and pdo as shared extensions.

    This appears to be an artifact of how the configure script is assembled from the m4 fragments scattered through the source tree.

    The PHP_MODULES variable in the generated makefile is constructed by configure and is assembled in order of appearance; the order of appearance is driven by the order the m4 fragments are pulled in when configure is built. mysqlnd goes at the end of the list as it has a config9.m4 file (build/config-stubs pulls those in last). It would appear it wants to configure last because there is code in the config9.m4 that auto-adds it if other modules that depend on it are part of the build. Fixing this looks like it will require some surgery to how the PHP_SHARED_MODULE macro in build/php.m4 assembles PHP_MODULES.
