Build error leg or test failing: browser-wasm linux Release LibraryTestsCoreCLR - WasmTestOnChrome-CLR-ST-Batch-4 - System.Globalization.Extensions.Tests
Pull request: #130168

Error Details

On the browser-wasm CoreCLR library test leg (WasmTestOnChrome-CLR-ST), the whole System.Globalization.Extensions.Tests work item fails because libSystem.Globalization.Native cannot be loaded. The build has dynamic linking disabled, so every Interop.Globalization.* P/Invoke throws System.DllNotFoundException. All 156 failing cases are System.Globalization.Tests.IdnMappingGetUnicodeTests (plus IdnMappingIdnaConformanceTests) and share the same stack through Interop.Globalization.ToUnicode.

[FAIL] System.Globalization.Tests.IdnMappingGetUnicodeTests.TryGetUnicode_EmptyBuffer
System.DllNotFoundException : Unable to load shared library 'libSystem.Globalization.Native' or one of its dependencies. In order to help diagnose loading problems, consider using a tool like strace. If you're using glibc, consider setting the LD_DEBUG environment variable:

Workflow artifact: ci-fix
Artifact kind: handoff
Linked KBE: #130479

Note

AI/Copilot-generated root-cause hand-off (ci-failure-fix). No automated code change was produced: the failure is a browser-wasm CoreCLR build/link configuration gap, and the only in-bounds test-side option would be to exclude/skip the globalization tests on that leg (muting), which this workflow must not do. Looping in owners to fix forward.

Root cause (read-only analysis)

On the new browser-wasm CoreCLR library-test leg, System.Globalization tests fail because the ICU shim native library cannot be loaded:

System.DllNotFoundException: Unable to load shared library 'libSystem.Globalization.Native' ...

Every Interop.Globalization.* P/Invoke throws DllNotFoundException because dynamic native linking is not enabled in the CoreCLR-on-WASM single-threaded test host, so libSystem.Globalization.Native is never resolvable at runtime. This is not a test defect and not a globalization-library bug — the managed interop is correct; the failure is that the browser-wasm CoreCLR test configuration does not make the globalization native shim available (it is neither statically linked into the runtime nor dlopen-able because dynamic linking is disabled on that leg).

Both conceivable changes are out of scope for this workflow:

• Excluding or skipping the globalization tests on the browser-wasm CoreCLR leg would mute them — not allowed here.
• Statically linking (or otherwise enabling loading of) System.Globalization.Native into the browser-wasm CoreCLR test host is a runtime/build configuration change well outside small-fix bounds, and cannot be built/validated in this environment.

Whether this leg should statically link the globalization shim, enable dynamic linking, or run with invariant globalization is a maintainer judgement, so I am handing off rather than editing build config blindly.

Evidence

• Failing leg: browser-wasm CoreCLR System.Globalization/System.Globalization.Extensions test assembly (per the KBE Build error leg or test failing: line).
• Error signature: DllNotFoundException loading libSystem.Globalization.Native (dynamic linking disabled on this leg).
• This browser-wasm CoreCLR path was being enabled around [mobile] Disable NativeAOT-specific test failures on Apple mobile #130168 (referenced by the KBE).
• Possible related history: [wasm] Missing support for building native libraries as part of tests #64127 (globalization native availability under wasm), surfaced as a possible duplicate by MihuBot on this issue.

Suggested reviewers / area contacts

• arch-wasm (browser-wasm CoreCLR build/link config): @lewing
• Area owners (area-System.Globalization): @dotnet/area-system-globalization

Please verify before acting; the native-link decision for the browser-wasm CoreCLR test host is the key call here.
