Docker build error: Cannot find `libc6-dev-i386`

[technosophos]

With a fresh clone of the repo, running the Docker build gives me the following error:

Ah.... it took the second error to figure out what was really happening:

I am on a Mac M1. Docker uses ARM64 as the arch on an M1.

[kesmit13]

Possibly the solution is to use package libc6-dev rather than libc6-dev-i386? The wasmtime binary issue might be trickier to fix. Technically it isn't needed to do the build, but it's installed for convenience to run Python once it is built.

[technosophos]

I tried changing all the things over to using ARM, but there were just too many little nuances. So I went the opposite route and changed the first line of the Dockerfile to this:

FROM --platform=linux/amd64 debian:bullseye

And then re-running the docker build, followed by docker run with the --platform flag:

$ docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):$(pwd) --platform linux/amd64 -w $(pwd) wasi-build:latest bash
root@e415ff3c1687:/Users/technosophos/Code/Python/python-wasi# ./run.sh
checking for git... found
checking build system type... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
checking host system type... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu

This got me all the way to where it runs config to build wasi-python. That errored out with this message:

I'm gonna let it build once more, and if it fails again, I'll stop until tomorrow.

[technosophos]

Alright, well... after fixing one of my own mistakes (something I had mistakenly commented out), I did get to the point where I could kick off the build. But after four tries -- crashing Docker itself every time -- I have given up.

(Note that that list error waiting for container: EOF hung the Docker daemon itself, and I have to kill/restart each time. I suspect a bug in Docker's amd64 support on M1s)

Any chance you can cut an alpha release of the project and post a binary on the releases page?

[kesmit13]

It is possible to run the run.sh script directly on a machine that has WASI SDK installed. I'm trying that now because some of the tools haven't been released on linux-aarch64 yet which makes Docker on M1 more challenging. I can post a binary for now.

[technosophos]

Oh, I should give that a try. I think I'd probably just have to change the host target on the cross compile line to use whatever Apple's architecture triplet is.

[kesmit13]

Yes, there will be a few modifications that have to be made, but they should be minor.

[kesmit13]

I pushed some changes that make it easier to build on Mac. There are still some issues in getting that work because the Mac release of WASI SDK is not for M1 either. I had to brew install llvm, autoconf, and automake to get the builds working without the bundled clang in WASI SDK.

[technosophos]

Yeah, I have had to build wasi-sdk in the past for exactly that reason. I will give things a try again later this afternoon. Thank you!

[technosophos]

We got it all compiled today, though I'd have to defer to @adamreese on how exactly he got the last few steps working.

[zifeo]

Hey @technosophos @adamreese, are you still able to build for M1? I managed to catch up with the above, yet it is not clear how to overcome that error (tried both with sdk 15 and sdk 19):

wasm-ld: error: unable to find library -lwasix
wasm-ld: error: unable to find library -lwasi_vfs
