Call for Beta-testers Pharo ARM64 JIT

by StÃ©phane Ducasse

Dear happy Pharoers and others, Over the last months we have been working on the implementation of a MIT-licensed ARMv8 Just-In-Time compiler for Pharo VM. We are very happy with the advance on this subject, as we have not only implemented a new backend but we have added more than 2500 tests to the JIT, the primitives, code generation, plugins and the VM in general. In the process we fixed many problems. It shows that following the roadmap that was decided during General assembly of PharoDays, we have been investing in the Pharo VM and that our efforts are greatly paying off. Also, we are generating a lot of documentation and improving the process to really democratize the development of the VM. So Pharo is a better shape than ever on such matter and this opens a lot of possibility for the future. ## Call for Beta-Testers We would like to announce that a first version of our JIT backend is available for beta-testing for ARM Linux machines using Ubuntu. We are now entering into a beta testing stage of the VM and the image in Ubuntu ARM 64. We would like to invite you to our beta testing phase for the VM. If you're interested in participating, please contact pablo.tesone(a)inria.fr. The following sections give more details of the current status, and the following steps including Apple Silicon, Windows ARM64 and Linux Open Build System support. ## Current Status Our objective is to have a running JIT for the new aarch64 architecture (ARM 64bits). This task includes not only a new backend for the JIT compiler but also adding support for external libraries, dependencies and the build process. This means having a working VM with comparable features as the one existing in Intel X64. We are targeting all the major operating systems running in this platform (Linux, OSX, Windows). Each of them present different restrictions and conditions. This is the current status: - We implemented a full backend for the JIT compiler targeting aarch64. - All the image side was adapted to run on it, tested on Ubuntu ARM 64 bits. - We added support for: Iceberg (Libgit) / Athens (Cairo) / SDL / GTK - We implemented a LibFFI-based FFI backend as the default one for Pharo 9 in aarch64 (next to come in all platforms). This opens the door to ease port the features to other platforms and OSes. ## Following Steps and Open Betas: Linux Open Build System (OBS), Windows ARM64 and Apple Silicon Linux Systems: In the following days, we will also support Raspbian (Debian) and Manjaro on ARM64. For doing so, we are pushing the last details in having a single Linux build system through OBS. So, if you want to start doing beta-testing of these versions please contact us. A public beta will be open in around two weeks. Windows Systems: We have extended the build process to fully support Microsoft Visual Studio compilers and more flexibility to select the targets, also we are building it to run in Windows ARM. To correctly run the VM in Windows it is needed to build all dependencies for aarch64. In the following weeks, we expect to have a working Non-JIT version and a JIT version. The remaining points to have a JIT version are related with the build process as the API of the operating system has not changed from X64 to aarch64. OSX Systems: Our third target is to have a working version for the newest Apple silicon. We are acquiring the corresponding hardware to test and to address the differences in the API exposed to JIT applications. As it is the case of the Windows VM, there is not need to change the machine code generation backend; but to compile external libraries, and particularities of the new OS version. Thanks for your support, and again, if you like to start beta testing the VM please contact us. In the meantime, we will continue giving you news about the current state and where are we going. The consortium would like to particularly thank Schmidt Buro and Lifeware for their contracts.

I am not sure if this month we have sprint, since it is by the christmas dates probably. Marcus, do we have sprint in december? Anyway, as soon as I know i'll let you know.

Trouble with checking out from Github

by Petter

Hi, I have three computers and two of these, one Linux and one Mac works excellent with Iceberg. But I have a difficult child, one laptop where I can not checkout code from a private github repo. It keeps running into stacktrace, nomatter which strategy I select. Problems does not seem to be connected to versions. I have tried different versions of Pharo images, from 8-stable to 9-bleeding edge. I have ticked the ssh-setting in Pharo for using custom keys and verified that these exists and has right permissions. Checkout from ssh in shell works fine. I have tried these strategies. 1) Using the add-key trick which is referred as a solution on this, like in ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa This always results in stacktrace in Pharo. 2) Checking out as as github-repo with ssh, same problem 3) Checking out as a git-repo, same problem 4) Generated new ssh-keys and tried to setup these as the default keys Same stack trace problem in Pharo. 5) Checking out over https This does not work either. The ssh-checkout box appears in Pharo even though I select this specifically. Checking out over https-does not seem to be working at all? Version on ssh on my laptop is: ssh: OpenSSH_8.1p1, LibreSSL 2.7.3 mac: Catalina 10.15.6 Interesting enough I have the same versions on my working mac. Only difference is that the default ssh-key is with a passphrase on the non-working computer (entering this in the ssh does not help, creating a new ssh-keypair without a passphrase does not make a difference either). ssh_config is also equal on the two computers. Has anybody solved a case like this or has any clues? This beats me :) And when Iceberg is up and running I must say it is really a valuable and nice tool, thx!

Re: Pharo Mars still not working on Ubuntu

by Guillermo Polito

Hi Ivan, just to complement Esteban. When there is a process crash, it usually writes a crash dump file in the working directory. Could you share yours? The crash dump file will have information about the stack and state at the moment of the crash. It will also be useful to know what linux version you are on, and what specific version of gtk you have installed. All these could help in reproducing the problem and ultimately fix it.

Sound is really not good :). There is no problem with that. Now we are concern with linux support and as you can see in the attached file there is no a single OS but several and this is a large task because in addition we have the new architecture coming. > I wanted to test Gtk-binding. <https://github.com/pharo-spec/gtk-bindings> > because I am interested by Gtk but not for specific project so no problem I > can wait.

Re: Pharo Mars still not working on Ubuntu

by yvan Godin

in reality posted my answer on a wrong list probably totally new to Pharo and Smaltalk I wanted just try so this is not important I wanted to test Gtk-binding. <https://github.com/pharo-spec/gtk-bindings> because I am interested by Gtk but not for specific project so no problem I can wait. Load fine but the demo code provided on github hard crash the image with big crash dump ``` GtkApplication ensureRunning. GtkRunLoop defer: [ GtkWindow new title: 'Gtk3 Window'; add: (GtkBox newVertical packStart: (GtkLabel newLabel: 'Hello!'); yourself); showAll ] ``` for the sound I have try to add sdl2 and alsa lib and some libsound but without success. One more time this is not essential but sad. Very long time ago I have try Squeak and sound was working. -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html

Can you let us know what is the problem? If you do not report it how can we do something? > The Linux desktop has the worst Pharo support. Exteban is working daily on a linux machine now the problem is that there is no such a thing as a linux machine. We have distributions and many of them with plenty of nice little differences that as a user you expect to work but takes from us a lot of time. For example different Clib. So Pablo and guille are working on making that the VM can take what is present making that we can deploy one VM as full standalone and this for a lot of different flavor. > > > > -- > Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html -------------------------------------------- StÃ©phane Ducasse http://stephane.ducasse.free.fr / http://www.pharo.org 03 59 35 87 52 Assistant: Aurore Dalle FAX 03 59 57 78 50 TEL 03 59 35 86 16 S.
