# Linux Instrumented Libraries The instrumented libraries are a collection of Chromium's dependencies built with *SAN enabled. The MSAN libraries are required for an MSAN build to run. The others are optional, and are currently unused. ## Building the instrumented libraries ### Setting up a chroot Building the libraries requires `apt-get source`, so the build must be done from an Ubuntu 20.04 environment. The preferred way is using a chroot. To get started, install `debootstrap` and `schroot`. If you're running a Debian-based distro, run: ```shell sudo apt install debootstrap schroot ``` Create a configuration for a Focal chroot: ```shell sudo $EDITOR /etc/schroot/chroot.d/focal_amd64.conf ``` Add the following to the new file, replacing the instances of `thomasanderson` with your own username. ``` [focal_amd64] description=Ubuntu 20.04 Focal for amd64 directory=/srv/chroot/focal_amd64 personality=linux root-users=thomasanderson type=directory users=thomasanderson ``` Bootstrap the chroot: ```shell sudo mkdir -p /srv/chroot/focal_amd64 sudo debootstrap --variant=buildd --arch=amd64 focal /srv/chroot/focal_amd64 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ ``` If your `$HOME` directory is not `/home` (as is the case on gLinux), then route `/home` to the real thing. `schroot` automatically mounts `/home`, which is where I'm assuming you keep your source tree and `depot_tools`. ```shell sudo mount --bind "$HOME" /home ``` Add `sources.list`: ```shell sudo $EDITOR /srv/chroot/focal_amd64/etc/apt/sources.list ``` Add the following contents to the file: ``` deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal main restricted universe deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal main restricted universe deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal-security main restricted universe deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal-security main restricted universe deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal-updates main restricted universe deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal-updates main restricted universe ``` Enter the chroot and install the necessary packages: ```shell schroot -c focal_amd64 -u root --directory /home/dev/chromium/src apt update apt install lsb-release sudo python pkg-config libgtk2.0-bin libdrm-dev nih-dbus-tool help2man ``` Install library packages: ```shell third_party/instrumented_libraries/scripts/install-build-deps.sh ``` Change to a non-root user: ```shell exit schroot -c focal_amd64 -u `whoami` --directory /home/dev/chromium/src ``` Add `depot_tools` to your `PATH`. For example, I have it in `~/dev/depot_tools`, so I use: ```shell export PATH=/home/dev/depot_tools/:$PATH ``` Now we're ready to build the libraries. A clean build takes a little over 8 minutes on a 72-thread machine. ```shell third_party/instrumented_libraries/scripts/build_and_package.py --parallel -j $(nproc) all focal ``` ## Uploading the libraries This requires write permission on the `chromium-instrumented-libraries` GCS bucket. `dpranke@` can grant access. ```shell # Exit the chroot. exit # Move files into place. mv *.tgz third_party/instrumented_libraries/binaries # Upload. upload_to_google_storage.py -b chromium-instrumented-libraries third_party/instrumented_libraries/binaries/msan*.tgz ``` ## Testing and uploading a CL After uploading, run `gclient sync` and test out a build with `is_msan = true` in your `args.gn`. Try running eg. `chrome` and `unit_tests` to make sure it's working. The binaries should work natively on gLinux. When uploading a CL, make sure to add the following in the description so that the MSAN bot will run on the CQ: ``` CQ_INCLUDE_TRYBOTS=luci.chromium.try:linux_chromium_msan_rel_ng ```
