Built executable won't run on Linux - libdl.so not found

I have a problem where a successfully built Unity game won't run on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

The problem seems to be connected to the linker, which can't be found. The app crashes after the splash screen. An excerpt from the Player.log file:

I do have libdl.so installed. Here is the output of ldd on the game executable:

I also checked the symbolic link to libdl.so.2, which is valid and points to libdl-2.27.so.

I am using UnityRos2, which adds several client libraries for ROS2 as plugins. Here is the repo, including a sample Unity project: https://github.com/DynoRobotics/UnityRos2

I have no problems running the application in the editor. There are also no build errors.

I have tested this with Unity 2019.2.14f1 running on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

 

Sorry for the delayed response. Here are the full contents of the Editor log:

 

Here's the Player log:

 

This is part of ROS2's library. It initializes a ROS2 node. Here is a LINK to ROS2's documentation.
What could be the reason that the function doesn't fail when run in the editor? What do you think of the linker error?

 

Hi,

I'm the main author for the https://github.com/DynoRobotics/UnityRos2 project and a large part of the C# ROS2 integration it uses.

We have spent quite a lot of time trying to get the linking for ROS2:s c-libraries to work through Unity's plugin loader. Unfortunately, we have not managed to get that to work yet. My current theory is that it has something to do with runtime linking in the ROS2 libraries that use the "POCO C++ Libraries".

The Unity-project currently uses a workaround with custom python-scripts that appends the relevant plugin folder to LD_LIBRARY_PATH to before starting the Editor or Player. Instructions for starting the player using this special script was not in our documentation, so that would be pretty hard to figure out for new users...

I think the ROS2 integration could be a very good addition to your Unity Simulation initiative.
Sending data through DDS/ROS2 is a lot more performant than the WebSocket approach that LGSVL is currently using. This is especially relevant for sending point clouds from simulated 3D-sensors to code running outside Unity.
Some open-source software projects for self-driving cars like Autoware (https://www.autoware.auto/) are also in the process of porting to ROS2.

Any help with fixing the linking so that we don't need to use the LD_LIBRARY_PATH hack would be greatly appreciated!

All source code related to this project (including ROS2) is open-source and available online.

 

I can certainly try!

The Player log from spyderrr seems to indicate that Unity is preloading the .so libraries, which I have not been able to get to work. I'm pretty sure his crash is related to this.

Some general info about the implementation first:

The .so files that are causing the issue on Linux can be seen here: https://github.com/DynoRobotics/UnityRos2/tree/dashing/Assets/Plugins/Linux/x86_64

Since I wanted the same C# code to support both Linux, Windows 10 and potentially other platforms (like UWP for hololens, macOSX and Android), I could not use DllImport directly.

I ended up using a utility-script written by Esteve Fernandez for an earlier implementation of a ROS2 C# integration to enable this type of cross-platform support:
https://github.com/samiamlabs/ros2_dotnet/blob/master/rcldotnet_common/DllLoadUtils.cs
Here is an example of how it is used:
https://github.com/samiamlabs/ros2_dotnet/blob/master/rcldotnet/NativeMethods.cs
It loads the platform-specific linker using DllImport. On linux this is dlopen (libdl.so).
The rest of the libraries are then loaded directly using dlopen.

I have unit tests that cover all of the calls to unmanaged code. They all pass outside Unity on both Windows 10 and Ubuntu 18.04. https://github.com/samiamlabs/ros2_dotnet/blob/master/rcldotnet_tests/NativeMetodsTest.cs

If the libraries are not preloaded, dlopen looks for them in LD_LIBRARY_PATH on Linux (or PATH for the Windows 10 linker).

The problems with using this in Unity:

If the "load on startup" option is checked in the Unity Editor Inspector for the .so files, the Editor crashes immediately on startup.

I have not been able to get much good information about this crash.
What little I have been able to find in ~/.config/unity3d/Editor.log seems to change between versions of Unity or something.

Right now with Unity 2019.2.8f1 Editor I'm getting:

(Filename: ./Runtime/Misc/Plugins.cpp Line: 282)
Plugins: Couldn't open Assets/Plugins/Linux/x86_64/libaction_msgs__rosidl_generator_c.so, error: libbuiltin_interfaces__rosidl_generator_c.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
​

Repeated for a bunch of the .so files.

If the libraries are not preloaded, the linker will not be able to find them.
Setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to the Assets/Plugins/Linux/x86_64 and making it available to the Unity Editor (by not going through UnityHub) seems to fix this for the most part.

Worth noting is that in more recent Unity Editor releases it has been necessary to preload the runtime-linked "librmw_fastrtps_cpp.so" (not using Unity preloading). If this is not done, any functions that use the ROS2 libraries, (like "rcl_node_init") will cause a crash when first called. This has not been necessary for the player in the versions of Unity I have tested.
See: https://github.com/DynoRobotics/Uni...dc/Assets/Scripts/ROS/SharedRosContext.cs#L43
And:
https://github.com/samiamlabs/ros2_...79cb027/rcldotnet_common/DllLoadUtils.cs#L257

Have seen some pretty odd stuff from gnucrash backtraces for the Player. This "string compare" error in what appears to be openssl for example:

Hope this made the issue a bit more clear...

Don't know how to proceed at this point. I suspect I need help from someone who knows how the linking and plugin loading works in Unity under the hood.

 

I think I had some issues with getting that approach to work, but don't remember exactly what the problem was.
Maybe it could be that it only works if you build it as a netcoreapp3.0 as indicated here https://stackoverflow.com/questions...m-ubuntu-windows-with-library-that-contains-d?

I currently build the C# code as a netcoreapp2.0. I think the dotnet-sdk-3 was not available for Linux yet when I started working on this, but I could be wrong...

Will look into it. If you don't think this is the cause for the crash, it will probably take me a while until I get around to do all that refactoring and testing though...

 

Based on #8 it seems to be this file: https://github.com/DynoRobotics/UnityRos2/blob/dashing/Assets/Plugins/Linux/x86_64/libfastrtps.so.1
The source for it is here
https://github.com/eProsima/Fast-RTPS
All the .so files were built locally from source on the same machine that was running Unity.

Btw, the gnucrash trace is from an earlier version of the project where I had not moved all the .so files into the Unity projects Plugin folder. I had only put the .so files that were custom for the C# ROS2 integration in the Plugin folder at that time I believe.
For the other standard ROS2 related .so files, I sourced a setup.bash script in the terminal where I started Unity. That script appends the paths to the rest of the .so files to LD_LIBRARY_PATH (this is standard for ROS2 workspaces).
I can make a new attempt at getting a trace for the current project setup if you want me to.

Could libfastrtps.so.1 somehow be dynamically linking to a different C runtime than it was built for? Or what do you mean? The library works fine outside of Unity and when LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set to the folder with all the .so files.

Could the problem have to do with the .so.1 extension somehow?

 

Do you have any suggestion for tools or some other way to figure out exactly which .so file the crash happens in? Have not been able to get much clarity from looking at the Player/Editor logs or at gdb backtraces like the callstack I posted earlier.

Will try to get whatever info I can from the current project in any case. Does it matter if the crashes are from the Player or Editor in terms of this debugging?

 

Sorry about not getting back to you earlier about this.

I ran gdb for the Editor and got this for the crash during startup:

warning: Could not load shared library symbols for Assets/Plugins/Linux/x86_64/libfastcdr.so.
Do you need "set solib-search-path" or "set sysroot"?

(*): Shared library is missing debugging information.
(gdb)​

As you can see, there are no addresses for libfastcdr.so and libfastrtps.so and "Syms Read" field is "No".
Not sure if this is because they don't have debug symbols if it means something different.

If I only select preload for libfastrtps.so I get no crash on startup, but I do get this warning in the Editor Console:

Plugins: Couldn't open Assets/Plugins/Linux/x86_64/libfastrtps.so, error: libfastcdr.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Selecting "Load on startup" for libfastcdr.so immediately causes a "Unity has stopped working" dialog to appear. I submitted a bug report from this crash using "Unity Bug Reporter".

Sourcecode for the library is here: https://github.com/osrf/libfastcdr

 

There are two separate bugs here I believe: one related to libfastrtps (issue with symbols, perhaps some part not compiled with -pic flag), the second one to Unity (or mono), with libdl. Someone made a hack there that cuts the lookup name from libdl.so to libdl (probably intended to cut the version only). I managed to fix both issues in our ROS2 Unity plugin.

I am curious what the follow up was for you

 

I managed to get it working by building ROS2 eloquent from scratch with only one DDS implementation to avoid dynamic linking using POCO. It works without the need for a local ROS2 install and can be started using Unity Hub. Only for cyclone DDS though, I still have some issues with fastrtps.

 

Hi,

I am one of the developers of libfastrtps. We have been investigating this, and it seems we have found the issue:

First libfastrtps.so calls OPENSSL_init_ssl () from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl.so.1.1
Which then calls CRYPTO_THREAD_run_once () from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.1
At some point an indeterminate function is called from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl.so.1.1
Which then calls OBJ_NAME_add () from UnityPlayer.so !!!!

Shouldn't last one be called from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.1 ?

Adding /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.1 to LD_PRELOAD seems to workaround the issue.

It seems that UnityPlayer.so is linking openssl statically and is exporting the symbols. It could built it differently to avoid that. See here for an example.

 

According to the original post

 

Hello, Has this issue been resolved?
I am trying to use IsaacSim Unity3d 2019.3.15f1 from Nvidia on the Ubu1804. I am seeing the same error with regards to libdl.so. See attached snapshot.
Please advise.
Regard.
