After building SwiftLint in Linux, a runtime error is generated when attempting to Lint a file.

[fibrechannelscsi]

Description
A runtime error is generated when attempting to run SwiftLint after building it (either in Debug or Release mode) under Linux. It appears to affect x86_64 and aarch64 platforms, albeit only on the nightly snapshots (the 5.9 Release branch is not affected).
The error generated at runtime is:

failed to demangle witness for associated type '' in conformance 'Swift.Array<SwiftParser.Parser.ExperimentalFeatures>: Sequence' from mangled name '?z??ySayxGG' - subject type x does not conform to protocol Collection
PLEASE submit a bug report to https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/ and include the crash backtrace.
Stack dump:
0.	While evaluating request ExportedSourceFileRequest(source_file "/home/user/s7/Plugins/SwiftLintPlugin/SwiftLintPlugin.swift")

Steps to reproduce
Running the following commands on the terminal window is sufficient to reproduce this issue:

mkdir SwiftLint
cd SwiftLint
git clone https://github.com/realm/SwiftLint . --depth 1
rm ./Tests/SwiftLintTestHelpers/*.swift
swift build -Xswiftc -static-stdlib
./.build/aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu/debug/swiftlint

If building for x86_64, the executable may be found inside .build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/debug. Otherwise, search for the generated swiftlint executable.

In the above example, we are Linting the SwiftLint repository itself. It is sufficient to trigger the runtime crash, but for a minimal reproducer of files that require Linting, one can make new directory with a single file called Package.swift; the file only needs to contain // swift-tools-version:5.8 (note that a blank file won't trigger the crash).

Expected behavior
The program should Lint all specified files successfully.

Environment

• Swift compiler version info: 2023-09-20a, 2023-09-26a nightly toolchains.
• Xcode version info: N/A
• Deployment target: Linux x86_64 (Ubuntu 18.04), Linux ARM64 (Ubuntu 20.04).

Additional context
Some additional packages may need to be installed (this list is not exhaustive):
apt install libcurl4-openssl-dev libxml2-dev

No issues were found when building for macOS; in fact the -Xswiftc -static-stdlib flag is not supported.

Here is a stack trace from an lldb run on Ubuntu 18, x86_64:

Might be a long shot, but does this look more like an issue for https://github.com/apple/sourcekit-lsp?

[ahoppen]

This is definitely not sourcekit-lsp. SwiftLint is calling into sourcekitd, so it’s correct for this the issue to live in this repo.

I couldn't reproduce it with:
swift toolchain: swift-DEVELOPMENT-SNAPSHOT-2023-10-09-a-ubuntu20.04-aarch64.tar.gz
SwiftLint: 0934c18cba3de323033920c1d0c2b38399e2745a
It builds and runs successfully.

@fibrechannelscsi Could you teach me what the exact toolchain and SwiftLint hash you can reproduce the runtime crash?

[fibrechannelscsi]

I have a fresh (as of yesterday) installation of Ubuntu 20.04 on an x86_64 machine.

which swift
gives me the executable found here:
swift-DEVELOPMENT-SNAPSHOT-2023-10-08-a-ubuntu20.04/usr/bin/swift.

swift --version gives:

Swift version 5.11-dev (LLVM cdb60493231c0e1, Swift a2cc0d0468d689c)
Target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

For SwiftLint itself, git log yields:

commit 0934c18cba3de323033920c1d0c2b38399e2745a (grafted, HEAD -> main, origin/main, origin/HEAD)
Author: Danny Mösch <[email protected]>
Date:   Tue Oct 3 18:05:31 2023 +0200

    Let RuleConfigurations be equatable by default (#5257)

I have a Ubuntu 20.04 Docker image running on an M1 Mac. The command which swift yields:
swift-DEVELOPMENT-SNAPSHOT-2023-10-09-a-ubuntu20.04-aarch64/usr/bin/swift

swift --version gives:

Swift version 5.11-dev (LLVM cdb60493231c0e1, Swift 2eb90c370a39c0a)
Target: aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu

The entry for git log is the same as above.

In both cases, swiftlint begins to lint the current directory, but soon generates the following error message:
failed to demangle witness for associated type '' in conformance 'Swift.Array<SwiftParser.Parser.ExperimentalFeatures>: Sequence' from mangled name '????ySayxGG' - subject type x does not conform to protocol Collection

Thanks I reproduced the crash. A wrong sourcekitdInProc.so was loaded.

[fibrechannelscsi]

This appears to be fixed on the 10-17 nightly. Thanks!
