CodeChecker failure, LD_PRELOAD looking for CodeChecker ldlogger.so object file in the wrong location

[RobMeades]

We run CodeChecker (version 6.22.2) on Linux (Ubuntu) building, via make, a GCC for ARM target, as follows:

CodeChecker check -b make -j8  -o analyze --jobs=12 --disable=misc-misplaced-const --disable=bugprone-signed-char-misuse --disable=clang-diagnostic-sign-compare --disable=clang-diagnostic-#warnings --disable=clang-diagnostic-unknown-attributes

CodeChecker starts up:

Starting build...
Using CodeChecker ld-logger.

...and then, for each file that is compiled, ld.so complains that LD_PRELOAD cannot find the CodeChecker ldlogger.so file

ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/codechecker_analyzer/ld_logger/lib/x86_64/ldlogger.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored.

The reason it cannot find the file is because it is looking in the wrong place, there is no x86_64 sub-directory, the ldlogger.so file can be found here:

/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/codechecker_analyzer/ld_logger/lib/ldlogger.so

Can anyone suggest how I can make LD_PRELOAD happy, or otherwise make CodeChecker happy?

Note that no LD_PRELOAD environment variable is shown by env and there is no /etc/ld.so.preload file, so the invocation of the logging stuff with LD_PRELOAD doesn't appear to be coming from the system on which CodeChecker has been installed, it seems to be coming from CodeChecker itself.

In case it matters, CodeChecker was installed as follows:

wget software-properties-common
wget -qO - https://apt.llvm.org/llvm-snapshot.gpg.key | apt-key add -
add-apt-repository "deb http://apt.llvm.org/focal/ llvm-toolchain-focal-14 main"

pip3 install thrift codechecker

@RobMeades Please double-check the version of CodeChecker installed. The 6.22 deployment to PyPI is known to be nuked, but there should be a fix 6.22.2.post1 available. What do CodeChecker version and pip list | grep codechecker show?

See #3858, #3919, #3976, and #4053.

Alternatively, reinstall. We just released 6.23, and it should be up on PyPI as well.

Side note: To run CodeChecker, you do not need to install thrift. All the RPC dependencies are (or should be...) appropriately packaged into the main deployment. thrift is only needed manually if you want to develop changes to the API.

[RobMeades]

Thanks for the swift response, I will try a reinstall forthwith, and leave thrift off this time.

FYI [before reinstall]:

[RobMeades]

Yup, sweeeet, 6.23 is the THING. Thank you so much!

[whisperity]

No problem!
