undefined reference to `seastar::logger::failed_to_log

When building a very simple test application

# Make sure we use a relatively recent version - 3.27 is Nov 2023
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.27)

project ("Kataklysmos")

find_package (Seastar REQUIRED)

add_executable (my_app
  src/main.cpp)

target_link_libraries (my_app PUBLIC Seastar::seastar)

#include <seastar/core/app-template.hh>
#include <seastar/core/seastar.hh>
#include <seastar/util/log.hh>

using namespace seastar;
logger applog("app");

int main(int argc, char** argv) {
    seastar::app_template app;
    app.run(argc, argv, [] () -> future<> {
        applog.info("Hello world!");
        return make_ready_future<>();
    });
}

I get the following linker error:

[3/3] Linking CXX executable my_app

Seastar was configured with

sudo ./install-dependencies.sh
./configure.py --mode=release --enable-dpdk
ninja -C build/release

with the Valgrind fix from #2180
Tested b74a027 and cd8a913

With Clang (Seastar itself build with default GCC) I get the error:

Same result when cooking fmt and upgrading to 10.2.1

Seems to be somehow related to boost?

./configure.py --mode=release --cook fmt --cook Boost --cook valgrind --c++-standard=20 --enable-dpdk

Works at least (with the Valgrind fix).
I haven't had the nerve to test whether removing --cook Boost will fix the issue...

@robinchrist hi Robin, so there are two issues here:

undefined reference to seastar::logger::failed_to_log()` with GCC
call to consteval function 'seastar::logger::format_info<>::format_info<char[13], 0>' is not a constant express with Clang

may i learn the version of GCC and the version of Clang which you are using? have you tried to build both you application and Seastar with Clang?

the first issue is a mysterious to me. because this symbol should be included in libseastar.a, could you paste the output of

$ nm -C build/release/libseastar.a | grep failed_to_log
                 U seastar::logger::failed_to_log(std::__exception_ptr::exception_ptr, fmt::v10::basic_string_view<char>, std::source_location)
