hi everyone! 
recently i started getting this error when i try to build any sbcl package:

Recently, I have also built couple of ’sbcl’ packages and I have not
noticed an issue.  I should have miss something…

This “sbcl-deploy” package is not in the Guix tree, right?  Do I miss
something?

Moreover, what do you mean by “package definitions are unchanged”?
Other said, what was the Guix version where it worked (guix pull -l) and
what is the current Guix version which breaks your flow (guix describe)?


All the best,
simon

I understand.

First, since the package you are building is yours, more information
is required to be able to find what is wrong.  Idem about your
channel.


The questions in my previous email are:

 1. could you provide the last version of Guix where it "worked"?
 2. could you provide the current version of Guix where it is "broken"?

The #1 means that you have to:

  a) "guix pull -l | grep guix".  This will display all the previous
versions of Guix you had (hoping that you have not deleted by running
"guix gc" with some well-chosen options).
>From these versions (hashes), you can run:

   guix time-machine --commit= -- build -L paht/to/your/local/pkg sbcl-foo

and see which worked and which not.  The easiest is to go
anti-chronological (start by your current Guix version and go
backward).

  b) "guix describe" and probably attach the recipe of your broken
package.  For example it seems that one of your package is named
"sbcl-deploy" since you have one item in the store named
"/gnu/store/fgfag09f1amsk82bs6jmg9h4rv6hqb94-sbcl-deploy-0.0.0-1.59fd497"
and this package is not in "master", AFAICT.


All the best,
simon

Hi,

The "Unhandled SIGILL at 0x52000e9d" error looks like the one in [1].
You could try downgrading sbcl to 2.0.8 to see if the error disappears.

If SBCL is in your main profile, you could downgrade it with:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
guix package --roll-back
guix package --upgrade --do-not-upgrade=sbcl
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

Or you could create an environment with "guix time-machine":

--8<---cut here---start->8---
guix time-machine --commit 21e79225352a5e78aa329b6cd213eb553862c363 -- 
environment --ad-hoc sbcl
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

Here 21e79225352a5e78aa329b6cd213eb553862c363 is the commit just before
the patch upgrading SBCL to 2.0.9.

hi, i realized that i have this problem with sbcl itself, if i install sbcl in 
my main profile (without any of my packages, only sbcl from guix channel) i 
still got this error:

fatal error encountered in SBCL pid 1954 tid 1954:
Unhandled SIGILL at 0x52000e9d.

Out of curiosity, what does the "lscpu" command return on your machine
(the flags in particular)?

According to [1], there is a bug in SBCL 2.0.9 that causes an illegal
instruction error on CPUs that support the popcnt instruction but not
the AVX instructions. It it the case of your CPU.
This bug has been fixed in the master branch of SBCL's repository, so
the next version of SBCL (which will be released soon I think) should
work on your machine.
