DESCRIBE THE ISSUE IN DETAIL:

The latest linux-aarch64 emulators from https://ci.android.com/ crash for me with the following output

Looking at this changeset (https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/platform/prebuilts/android-emulator-build/qt/+/2976235) does show that all those plugins were removed during the qt 6.5.3 prebuilts update so the crash seems logical. Thus i have the following questions:

at this point is there any way to get a recent working linux-arch64 emulator or is it in an overall broken state? I quickly checked and the 35-1-release and 34-x-release branches all seem to be updated to 6.5.3 and I also need the proxy fix done in here (https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/314614435) so very old branches do no really work. What are my options here?
Is there a way to prebuild qt 6.5.3 for me for it to be compatible with what the emulator expects and use those binaries?

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

Run any recent linux-aarch64 emulator from ci.android.com and observer SIGABRT

Adding 2 more thread dumps from another freeze. Again after switching branches and updating from git.

ru...@gmail.com <ru...@gmail.com> #3Apr 2, 2024 02:35PM

Thanks for the report. I believe that this is fixed in our development branch, and also in the branch that will become Ladybug Feature Drop Beta. If you could verify that this doesn't happen in a nightly build (from https://developer.android.com/studio/nightly) that would be helpful -- and of course if you can trigger this in a recent nightly build, that's would be very important information.

ru...@gmail.com <ru...@gmail.com> #4Apr 2, 2024 06:11PM

Sorry, I have not tried it on the nightly build, but since then I updated to Meerkat and I have not seen the freeze afterwards.

jo...@google.com <jo...@google.com> #5Apr 2, 2024 06:30PM

That's good to hear. I think that the fix (which for reference was https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community/commit/fe621544dd61a9af34d97958d3d823a7c3454a87) is effective for both beta and canary branches.

For the record I am also arranging for https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community/commit/a444c8a500883669fc05c7177f93b5b794fdd13b (same fix, different implementation class) to be included; it's probably inactive code in our configurations, but it might be possible to trigger nevertheless.

Thanks for the confirmation!

ru...@gmail.com <ru...@gmail.com> #6Apr 2, 2024 07:02PM

Thank you for your patience while our engineering team worked to resolve this issue. A fix for this issue is now available in:

Android Studio Ladybug Feature Drop | 2024.2.2 RC 1
Android Gradle Plugin 8.8.0-rc01

We encourage you to try the latest update.

If you notice further issues or have questions, please file a new bug report.

Thank you for taking the time to submit feedback — we really appreciate it!

Hi, I have a local emulator build with updated Qt6 prebuilts. Could you please try and let me know if it works? Thanks!

I immediately get /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version GLIBC_2.36' not found (required by /home/appetizer/emulator/lib64/libstdc++.so.6)` - most likely this was compiled on a newer system? I am on ubuntu 22.04 which has glibc 2.35 but i can try upgrading to 22.10

jo...@google.com <jo...@google.com> #13May 10, 2024 08:18PM

Hmm, I used a docker image based on ubuntu focal. The GLIBC version on it is 2.31. Maybe we are distributing a different libstdc++.so.6.

Could you try replacing the libstdc++.so.6 in /home/appetizer/emulator/lib64/ with the one in your sysroot (located probably in /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu).

In the meantime, I'll update the emulator prebuilt.

ru...@gmail.com <ru...@gmail.com> #14May 10, 2024 08:26PM

I was trying to validate what is going on in the background and yeah glibc 2.36 is pulled in by libstdc++:

./emulator: /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.36' not found (required by /home/appetizer/emulator/./lib64/libstdc++.so.6)
		libc.so.6 (GLIBC_2.36) => not found

The version from your build seemes to have GLIBCXX_3.4.42 macro, where as the last one I had laying around from ci.google.com had GLIBCXX_3.4.28. Ok, ill try to replace it with the sysrooted one.

ru...@gmail.com <ru...@gmail.com> #15May 10, 2024 08:34PM

Replacing libstdc++ with the sysrooted one did work, emulator seems to be working, thank you very much - this is much snappier than the arhaic arm version I was using.

Btw when trying to shut it down via the power button on the side bar i got:

INFO    | Warning: QMetaObject::connectSlotsByName: No matching signal for on_rgbcSensorValueWidget_valueChanged() ((null):0, (null))
INFO    | Warning: QMetaObject::connectSlotsByName: No matching signal for on_posture_valueChanged(int) ((null):0, (null))
WARNING | UpdateCheck: Failure: Error
ERROR   | Error reading vhal json

but well that is most likely a separate issue.

I'll be eagerly awaiting an official build, but the main problem seems to be solved - the window comes up and seems to work so seem that the qt prebuilts are ok:) Does this also then mean that all emulator 35.x releases (x86_64 as well) will have the libstdc++ version bump?

jo...@google.com <jo...@google.com> #16May 11, 2024 03:55PM

Does this also then mean that all emulator 35.x releases (x86_64 as well) will have the libstdc++ version bump?

Only the linux-aarch64 target uses libstdc++ (all other targets ship with libc++). Also, the libstdc++ version we ship will not change from the current 34.x and 35.x releases; my local build had a newer version of libstdc++, but the buildbot used to build the release builds did not change.

ru...@gmail.com <ru...@gmail.com> #17May 11, 2024 05:42PM

Thanks for the clarification - I double checked that myself today and yeah the latest aarch64 build from ci.android.com had older libstdc++ than your build. So everything seems great, thanks for the help here. Are the qt prebuilts merged in already?

jo...@google.com <jo...@google.com> #18May 11, 2024 05:54PM

Not merged yet, but if you like to try locally, you can try these two patches: https://r.android.com/3083865, https://r.android.com/3083486
