Integer constant is too large for 'long' type

Integer constant is too large for 'long' type

Hi,

I have notice following warning for the most of stp example files
under testsuite directory.
Warnings being treated as errors and coming out from the build.

0.137 is a pretty old version of elfutils, you might want to upgrade to
something newer.

Could you build with stap -k, which keeps the temporary file, and post
what code is around stap-symbols.h:66980?

Thanks,

yes. it is older version.
i have selected this version because in the previous discussion links
they have over come few of errors by using elfutils 0.137 version as
per the below link

http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9738

however. suggest me the best compatible version of elfutils with SystemTap-1.0 .

i'll try with "stap -k" and debug the issue.

As per your instructions I have build stap with –k option and
compiled with latest elfutils 0.143
found the /tmp/stapxxx directory and related file.

I can reproduce the same issue.

Observation:
----------------
In the below the structure "static struct _stp_module" where
“.build_id_offset = 0xffffffff3fff8024” is filled with larger value in to
 “unsigned long build_id_offset;”

It seems as though the memory/section layout of the arm kernel is
rather different from what we've seen.  Can you send over some
"readelf {-S,-l,-n} ..../vmlinux" output?

I am not clear about above line.

could give me in a detail steps, so that i can share build/results logs.

OK, the above shows that the linker script that is creating your arm
kernel images is putting the build-id note in a weird place - at the
very beginning of RAM, far away from .text and friends.  My guess is
that this memory is actually not preserved at run time, so that even
if we got the systemtap-time offsets all compiled in, the run-time
value would not match.

On more typical desktop linux builds, the build-id section is placed
right after .text, so that relative to the _stext symbol, there is a
smallish positive offset.  And that way the buildid bits get
preserved.  Can you check whether this is fixable in the arm kernel
you are using?

After our discussion I have investigated this issue
Issue:
/tmp/stapkpgLTm/stap-symbols.h:60600: error: integer constant is too
large for 'long' type
/tmp/stapkpgLTm/stap-symbols.h:60600: error: large integer implicitly
truncated to unsigned type

Found the patch is applied to SystemTap-0.9.9 is causing the build
issues in test cases of SystemTap testsuite.
http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist@lists.debian.org/msg690166.html

translate.cxx:
c->output << ".build_id_offset = 0x" << hex << build_id_vaddr - (base
+ extra_offset)
            << dec << ",\n";

In the above line, extra_offset datatype is "long long int" but
".build_id_offset is "unsigned long" only. Due to that it is giving
"error: integer constant is too large for 'long' type" and the
structure static struct _stp_module where “.build_id_offset =
0xffffffff3fff8024” is filled with larger value in to “unsigned long
build_id_offset;”

From ".build_id_offset", this gives the offset value when relocations
are applied to build id address in systemtap. In this scenario,
build_id_vaddr itself supply the clear symbol relocation but I do not
know why " build_id_vaddr - (base + extra_offset)" is done for
relocations.

I expect, (base + extra_offset) is subtracted from build_id_vaddr
which assumes that offset between _stext and build is the same after
relocation.


However, I have back ported this patch and able to resolve the build
issue on ARM.

Please provide your comments.

This patch was needed for kernels with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE set.

Does casting everything to unsigned long work? Or does it give incorrect
result?

I assume that this means that you have reverted the patch. Is it
possible to load generated modules after that? Or does this only fix
compilation?

Hi,

The following issue was noticed
Issue:
/tmp/stapkpgLTm/stap-symbols.h:60600: error: integer constant is too
large for 'long' type

I am not sure about the CONFIG_RELOCATABLE in ARM Kernels.
Is this config option only for X86 and PowerPC?

I have made following changes for the ARM architecture to over come
the above build issues.

I am not sure about how to verify the results. Please help me out in
this context.
However, I am able to build and staprun is working fine.

That's because it presumes that the buildid note section will be
located somewhat after .text.  In the case of your arm kernel build,
that's not the case.

That's only the build issue.  Does the code *run* though, meaning does
it actually verify the buildid bits at virtual address 0x0-ish on your
arm kernel?  I suspect not.

I quickly looked at that bug, I think that isn't related to the problem
you are seeing (with current systemtap/elfutils it fails differently).
In general the latest elfutils release (currently 0.143) is preferred
(later versions are also required for some of the newer features of
systemtap).

I have build latest systemtap/elfutils
SystemTap translator/driver (version 1.0/0.143 non-git sources)
found following example build issues.

Error:
