@Win8Error,

This package doesn't support people who have failed to read the wiki page https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Makepkg, or cannot interpret error messages.

aarch64 is not an officially supported architecture for this PKGBUILD, since I don't exactly test it on such architectures. It failing to work is therefore not very surprising.

I guess you can do any necessary followup in that upstream bug report, hopefully upstream can get it into a state of "working out of the box" so that makepkg --ignorearch works. But I'm not investing any of my own time in this...

This package requires "core/which" to support the dracut module check. @eschwartz can you add it, please?

zfs and zfs-utils are running here on Raspberry Pi 4 (4GB) (aarch64) without any issues. To build it, just replace PKGBUILD line:

arch=("i686" "x86_64")

with

arch=("i686" "x86_64" "aarch64")

EDIT:

Normally segfaults using gcc occur either if the compiler has some weird bug, or if you don't have enough RAM. I didn't think it could be the RAM, because I had 64G installed in my system. After trying 6-7 times to brute-force it (if it throws an error just try compiling again), it finally succeeded in compiling. Turns out one stick of RAM was faulty. So I would advise you that upon receiving a similar error, you try brute-forcing it a couple of times and double-checking with a memtest, just for good measure. Shoutout to the #archlinux IRC for the help.

Problem:

Unfortunately, this package doesn't compile for me. In the directory zfs-utils/src/zfs-0.8.4/lib/libzpool, the compiler throws the following error:

/bin/sh: line 2: 68193 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) /bin/sh ../../libtool --silent --tag=C
b/libspl/include -D_GNU_SOURCE -D_REENTRANT -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -DHAVE_LAR

make[3]: *** [Makefile:1216: lstate.lo] Error 139

I'm currently on the 5.7.12-zen1-1 kernel. I've also tried with the 5.7.12-arch1-1 kernel, just for good measure, but even after re-cloning, the compiler still throws the same error.

Regarding the big picture, I'm trying to build the zfs-dkms package from the AUR, where zfs-utils is logically a dependency.

eschwartz commented on 2020-07-19 18:25 (UTC)

makepkg --ignorearch would allow it to be built on unsupported architectures. However, previous comments indicated that would not even work because of e.g. configure: error: cannot guess build type; you must specify one.

Thank you for your contributions Eli. Submitted a PR on github to add armv7h to the supported arch, I have tested this on arch for raspberry pi 4 and have a clean compile. Light manual testing has shown no issues so far.

This is a necessary dependency to add zfs-dkms to arch on rpi 4. Note that other distros (Ubuntu aarch64) support zfs-utils.

I have not tested on a aarch64 kernel for the RPi4.

zfs-utils package from https://archzfs.com/archzfs/x86_64/ has better initcpio zfs hooks. For example it has the ability to unlock encrypted volumes at boot (zfs load-key). Would it be possible to implement this here?

Can you look up what the word "arch" means in the PKGBUILD(5) man page?

No.

EDIT: I'm guessing your comment is due to the desire to have this work out of the box on ARM arches. Obviously, the difference matters, or you would not be asking! And no, I've previously had comments indicate that this package didn't build on ARM, so I don't feel comfortable listing support for something I don't test which maybe doesn't work.
