Golang Tensorflow API cannot be build any more #23257
Description
System information
- OS Platform and Distribution (e.g., Linux Ubuntu 16.04): Linux
- TensorFlow version: 1.10.1, 1.11.0, 1.12.0-rc1
- Only tested CPU version
Describe the problem
I tried to build my golang project which uses the tensorflow Go API. The CI build in Gitlab failed without a change (also old builds, which finished successfully before, cannot be build any more).
I run the following commands:
curl --silent -L "https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/libtensorflow/libtensorflow-cpu-linux-x86_64-1.12.0-rc1.tar.gz" | tar -C /usr/local -xz
ldconfig
go get github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/tensorflow/go
Then I receive the following error:
# github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/tensorflow/go
/tmp/go-build813894416/b001/_x003.o: In function `_cgo_691d94bb61b7_Cfunc_TF_ImportGraphDefOptionsSetDefaultDevice':
/tmp/go-build/cgo-gcc-prolog:198: undefined reference to `TF_ImportGraphDefOptionsSetDefaultDevice'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
This did not happend before with the exact same commands. It also happens if I use other versions of the C library. Therefore I assume that the tensorflow Go API is broken in the current master.

Just to give more information on this
I'm having the same issue building tensorflow GO API. I first tried it on my macOS, to receive the following error
Then, in order to isolate from issues arising due to linking issues on my personal dev env, I ran the above in a docker container and got the error
Same issue, AFAICT.

Same problem here. I can not download the go package from the github. :(
package github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/tensorflow/go: exit status 128 package github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/tensorflow/go/op: cannot find package "github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/tensorflow/go/op" in any of:asimshankar commentedon Oct 28, 2018
@andreas-eberle @bearbite : This is because the code in the Go library for the "master" branch depends on the C library (
libtensorflow.so) built from the master branch. Since the C library being used is from the 1.10/1.11/1.12 release, you'd have to checkout the corresponding branch.This is similar to: #14546 (comment), where you'd want to do something like:
I'll keep this issue open because this seems like something that we should at least document better in the installation instructions.
andreas-repp commentedon Oct 29, 2018
@asimshankar: This definitely has to be documented better. When I follow the official installation instructions, I cannot build the tensorflow Go API. Maybe consider changing the installation instructions to use a dependecy management like Go Dep. With that you can easily specify the version you'd like to build.

I also interested to see correct set of instructions. So far everything was "trivial" we call go get and get the build. Now it seems the orchestration should be done with git, versions, branches.

To be clear, yes we want things to be easy.
My comments abive were meant as an explanation and a suggested workaround.
I will have to look into the appropriate fix

@asimshankar is it beneficial to mention this issue on this page for the mean time until the complete fix

I was recently installing and found this issue page to be really useful

have the same problem installing go
fardok commentedon Nov 21, 2018
anybody test the older version? maybe better use https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/libtensorflow/libtensorflow-cpu-linux-x86_64-1.3.0.tar.gz ?
fardok commentedon Nov 21, 2018
test with old version:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <tensorflow/c/c_api.h>
int main() {
printf("Hello from TensorFlow C library version %s\n", TF_Version());
return 0;
}
also return error:
sudo gcc test.c -o hello
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/ccJT12Vj.o: in function
main': test.c:(.text+0xa): undefined reference toTF_Version'collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
fardok commentedon Nov 21, 2018
g++ -I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib test.c -ltensorflow
work fine 👍

not exactly the same issue. But the same part is that installing tensorflow go failed when there is a update. There should be an integration test here.
