Hi there,

as pointed out already over at GitHub, I think all that's missing is another switch passed to llvm-rs-cc to emit either 32/64bit code pretty much here:

  https://android.googlesource.com/platform/tools/base/+/refs/heads/master/build-system/builder/src/main/java/com/android/builder/internal/compiler/RenderScriptProcessor.java#224

Since we depend on RenderScript working with Android NDK for 64bit apps as of today [1], this issue is quite urgent for us.
May I kindly ask to prioritize this bugfix as the actual fix doesn't seem to be too much work?

In principle, we could pass -m32/-m64 to llvm-rs-cc ourselves to generate the correct bytecode. However, this is not feasible when building a release APK as we otherwise will run in all kinds of issues due to wrong checksums etc. We neither want to call aapt2 ourselves to generate an APK (but continue using the Android Gradle plugin), as the actual packaging is quite cumbersome and prone to errors.

Thanks in advance

Can you please provide a small project for his, as well as detailed instructions on how to reproduce?

That would help expedite things.

Hello,

Here is a minimal project that reproduces it. I've added the instructions for reproducing to the README: https://github.com/Dockheas23/renderscript-gradle-64

Thanks a lot

Hey,
Thanks for the project!
Unfortunately, I am having trouble compiling in my local machine after it is cleaned.

  ~/Library/Android/sdk/ndk-bundle/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/darwin-x86_64/sysroot/usr/include/c++/v1/memory:3132: error: undefined reference to 'ScriptC_example::ScriptC_example(android::RSC::sp<android::RSC::RS>)'
  clang++: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Can you please fix the issue for AGP 3.6.0-alpha02 and send it back to me?
You can include classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.6.0-alpha02' in your build script

Hello,
Thanks for getting back! I've updated the project now to support that version of the plugin, so it should resolve the include file correctly.
Please let me know if I can do anything else to help

Thank you! That worked wonders. I believe I have a solution for this issue. I will notify you when it is merged.

That's great news, thanks a lot!

Hello again. Have you any notion of how long it will take for the fix to get into production? Thank you!

I'm currently working on it. Should be coming out soon.

Hi,
Thanks for working on this, and sorry to ask again, but is there any update on when this will be ready?
We haven't been able to release an app update in over a month because the Play Store interprets it as not having 64-bit support, so this is becoming increasingly urgent for us.
Is there anything we can do to help with it?

Hi,

The fix is almost ready to be shipped. I'm just waiting for final approval.
Thank you for your patience, and sorry for the delays.

Thanks for the quick update!

Hey,
Any chance there is an update on this? All our development has been blocked and we are unable to update our app. This is becoming critical for us. Is it possible to get fix out today? thanks

I can't get you a precise timeline, but it shouldn't take too long to ship this (although today is highly unlikely).
I will give you a heads up when it does ship.

The fix has been published. You can expect it in the next release.

Hello,
I built the plugin locally, and confirmed that the Play Store now accepts the app as including the 64-bit ABIs.
Thanks so much for fixing this!

In which version of AGP was this fixed? Currently updating to AGP 4.0 with Renderscript and actual Renderscript kernels, the kernels itself are ONLY compiled to 32 bit platforms (armabi-v7a, x86). All the other renderscript support files are fine.
