Removed :compression from save-lisp-and-die — compressed core images need decompression at startup which can easily exceed 30s on CI runners. 2. Single-stage Dockerfile instead of multi-stage — CFFI records the exact path of each foreign library (libev.so, libsqlite3.so) when dumping the core. Multi-stage builds fail because the builder has -dev packages (libev.so symlink) but the runtime only has the versioned .so.4 — CFFI can't reopen them. Single stage = same paths = instant CFFI restore. Tradeoff: larger image (~200MB vs ~80MB) but the server starts instantly with no Quicklisp/FASL loading at all. --- frameworks/woo/Dockerfile | 14 ++------------ frameworks/woo/src/build.lisp | 1 - 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) diff --git a/frameworks/woo/Dockerfile b/frameworks/woo/Dockerfile index ad9b21a9..6fdc9993 100644 --- a/frameworks/woo/Dockerfile +++ b/frameworks/woo/Dockerfile @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ -FROM ubuntu:24.04 AS builder +FROM ubuntu:24.04 RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends \ sbcl curl ca-certificates build-essential \ @@ -22,19 +22,9 @@ RUN sbcl --non-interactive \ COPY src/ /app/src/ # Build standalone executable via save-lisp-and-die -# CFFI foreign library handles are re-opened automatically on core restore -# as long as the .so files exist at the same paths in the runtime image. +# Single stage so CFFI foreign library paths match exactly at runtime RUN sbcl --non-interactive --load /app/src/build.lisp -# --- Runtime stage: minimal image with just the libs + executable --- -FROM ubuntu:24.04 - -RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends \ - libev4t64 libsqlite3-0 zlib1g \ - && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* - -COPY --from=builder /app/woo-server /app/woo-server - EXPOSE 8080 CMD ["/app/woo-server"] diff --git a/frameworks/woo/src/build.lisp b/frameworks/woo/src/build.lisp index 143e6c12..c7cf8c16 100644 --- a/frameworks/woo/src/build.lisp +++ b/frameworks/woo/src/build.lisp @@ -8,5 +8,4 @@ (sb-ext:save-lisp-and-die "/app/woo-server" :toplevel #'httparena::main :executable t - :compression t :save-runtime-options t) From 76f4fa440e202de46ef62f3ca50c91c4543a0621 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: BennyFranciscus <268274351+BennyFranciscus@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2026 00:48:53 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 16/20] Fix startup: LD_PRELOAD libev for CFFI on core restore The save-lisp-and-die binary starts instantly but CFFI can't reopen libev.so via dlopen on core restore.

The root cause: SBCL core images record dlopen paths that may not match at restore time, causing silent hangs. Solution: just run SBCL directly.

Previous save-lisp-and-die attempts failed because CFFI foreign lib handles (libev) went stale on core restore. Fix: use cffi:reload-foreign-libraries — CFFI's official API for re-opening all registered foreign libraries after core image restore. This works because: 1. Single-stage build — dlopen paths identical at build/runtime 2. No :compression — no slow decompression at startup 3.
