I am going to report this upstream at <https://racket.discourse.group/t/chez-for-architectures-without-native-backends/950/>, because I don't know much I can do to pin down what's going wrong. When cross-compiling, the bootfiles are built with Chez Scheme rather than bootstrapped via Racket BC (because it is 10x faster), but I just tried manually running rktboot for tpb64l from my x86_64-linux machine, and it worked for me. One thing that would help is if you can try to reproduce this outside of the Guix build environment. You can get the source either checking out <https://github.com/racket/racket> at the v8.6 tag or by downloading and unpacking <https://download.racket-lang.org/releases/8.6/installers/racket-minimal-8.6-src.tgz>. Navigate to the Chez Scheme source directory, which is "racket/src/ChezScheme" in the Git repository or just "src/ChezScheme" in the tarball. You can run rktboot even with an old Racket, so try something like: guix shell --container racket-minimal -- racket rktboot/main.rkt --machine tpb64l If it works, you could try building Racket and/or Chez Scheme, if you want. Even if it doesn't work, you may be able to build Racket and/or Chez Scheme, because Racket distributes "pb" bootfiles (not specialized to word size and endianness) that can be used for bootstrapping. To build Chez Scheme, you probably will need to configure with: -m=tpb64l --threads --enable-libffi "CFLAGS=-g -O2 -D_REENTRANT -pthread" "LIBS=-lm -ldl -lrt -lffi -lncurses" Racket is built from the parent of the Chez Scheme source directory, and you will probably need to configure with: --enable-pb --enable-mach=tpb64l If you are trying to build Chez Scheme or Racket (as opposed to just the bootfiles) from the Git repository and "rktboot" doesn't work, you'll need to run `make pb-fetch` in the root directory of the checkout to get the "pb" bootfiles. More details about options for building from the Git repository are documented at <https://docs.racket-lang.org/racket-build-guide/>, which is also rendered to "build.md" in the root directory of the Git repository itself. Thanks again for trying this! -Philip
Hi, This patch series contains the Racket 8.6 release, including updating Racket's variant of Chez Scheme and adding a package for Zuo, the new tiny Racket-like language used for build scripts starting with this release. (If you've been waiting for the release announcement, this cycle upstream is delaying sending it until the new Racket has finished rebuilding all of <https://docs.racket-lang.org>, which can take a few days---but the release itself is live at <https://download.racket-lang.org> already, and I've been told distribution packagers should update now.) As I mentioned on the mailing list in [1], this release lets us use Racket CS and Racket's variant of Chez Scheme on all systems, even those for which the compiler can not yet generate native code, such as powerpc64le-linux and riscv64-linux. (See the relevant patches for more details.) In particular, this means that we can now provide some Chez Scheme package for every system Guix supports. Additionally, I resolved the issues I mentioned in [1] with i586-pc-gnu by getting getting native code generation for the Hurd working in Racket's Chez, and I've cherry-picked those patches in this series. -Philip [1]: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-guix/2022-08/msg00018.html Philip McGrath (6): gnu: stex: Update to 1.2.2-2.afa6075. gnu: stex: Fix read-only gifs and math directories. gnu: chez-scheme: Fix use of "/bin/sh". gnu: Update Racket to 8.6.
