2020-10-18build: use PIE objects for static libraries if b_staticpic=false but b_pie=truePaolo Bonzini1-1/+1
If static_library is used as a convenience library (e.g. for link_whole) it should in principle not need position independent code. However, if the executables that the libraries is linked to are PIE, the non-PIC objects in the static library will cause linker errors. To avoid this, obey b_pie for static libraries if either b_staticpic=false or they use "pic: false". Without this patch, QEMU cannot use b_staticpic, which causes a slowdown on some QEMU benchmarks up to 20%.

Improve the output for meson wrapped commands
2020-09-29compilers/VS: fix build to use optimization and debug flagsVili Väinölä1-0/+4
- Fixed using debug and optimization built-in options in MSVC. - Fixed that VS backend does not create pdb files in release mode. VS implicitly adds the debug fields if left out. - Fix that it is possible to add debug info with ninja backend with optimizations.
2020-09-20Make meson_exe report pickled command when it failsJon Turney1-0/+1
Make 'meson --internal exe --unpickle' report the actual command executed when it fails, which is otherwise invisible.
2020-09-20Improve description of meson wrapped custom commandsJon Turney1-6/+24
I've always found ninja reporting 'a meson_exe.py custom command' unclear and confusing. Instead say we are invoking a custom command, wrapped by meson, and why.

Otherwise it might be an argument to a script that just inspects the binary itself.

2020-09-11Revert "Do not automatically set warning flags if buildtype is 'plain'"Eli Schwartz1-1/+1
This reverts commit 8ee1c9a07a3a35e3ed262fbc358fd86c257a966e. No rationale was given for this change prior to merging. After the fact it was described as desired by distro packagers, however as a distro packager I believe this commit hurts me. From a distro packaging perspective, we primarily care about one thing: previously building code should still build. Hence, -Werror is bad for our use case. meson handles this via -D werror which is different from -D warning_level and as long as the former is disabled, warnings in the build do not cause harm (but may attract review attention for upstream to fix). buildtype is a completely unrelated concern, and the intention for =plain is to disable debug or optimization settings that result in codegen differences and thus different built artifacts. This must not happen in distro builds because the *distributed programs* should conform to policy settings. Unfortunately, completely disabling warnings happens silently, and cannot be overridden even if you really, really believe you know what you're doing. It is thematically broken, since use of add_project_arguments() to add more -W flags is not likewise ignored. But if you try to add -Wall in that manner, meson will lecture you to use warning_level which you cannot do. And if you have custom warning flags which depend on options enabled by judicious use of -Wall via default_options: 'warning_level=1', then you end up with generated warnings complaining about your command line rather than your code, such as: cc1: warning: ‘-Wformat-y2k’ ignored without ‘-Wformat’ [-Wformat-y2k] cc1: warning: ‘-Wformat-extra-args’ ignored without ‘-Wformat’ [-Wformat-extra-args] cc1: warning: ‘-Wformat-zero-length’ ignored without ‘-Wformat’ [-Wformat-zero-length] cc1: warning: ‘-Wformat-contains-nul’ ignored without ‘-Wformat’ [-Wformat-contains-nul] cc1: warning: ‘-Wformat-security’ ignored without ‘-Wformat’ [-Wformat-security] which then break the build with -Werror. Throughout all this, a buildtype of "plain" does *not* disable -D werror=true, which is the part where distro builds actually break down! Users who both wish to disable debug/optimization codegen, *and* disable warning commentary, are encouraged to do so by doing both, not by doing one and having the other be assumed. Fixes #7399
2020-09-10minstall: Add version field to install dataNirbheek Chauhan1-2/+4

2020-09-04introspect: add test dependencies info to test/benchmark JSONPaolo Bonzini1-2/+10
Add the ids of any target that needs to be rebuilt before running the tests as computed by the backend, to the introspection data for tests and benchmarks. This also includes anything that appears on the test's command line. Without this information, IDEs must update the entire build before running any test. They can now instead selectively build the test executable itself and anything that is needed to run it. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
2020-08-31backends: do not look for extra paths unnecessarilyPaolo Bonzini1-7/+6
extra_paths only matter for the host machine if using an exe_wrapper. However, because CustomTarget.for_machine is always MachineChoice.HOST, they were computed unnecessarily in as_meson_exe_cmdline. Defer computation of extra_paths until after we have found out if the custom target executable is really for the host or the build machine, so that we can use exe_for_machine; for_machine then becomes unused and can be removed.

Since -Wl,-rpath= is not the only valid rpath ldflags syntax we need to try and match all valid rpath ldflags. In addition we should prevent -Wl,--just-symbols from being used to set rpath due to inconsistent compiler support. Signed-off-by: James Hilliard <james.hilliard1@gmail.com>
2020-07-28Avoid warning about multiple outputs when building private directory nameZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek1-3/+3
Fixup for b4b1a2c5a145c1459fc4563a289e164e23bd6a02. A warning would be printed for any rule with multiple outputs, for example: WARNING: custom_target 'coredump.conf.5' has more than one output! Using the first one. WARNING: custom_target 'dnssec-trust-anchors.d.5' has more than one output! Using the first one. WARNING: custom_target 'halt.8' has more than one output! Using the first one.

2020-06-22compilers: Return CompilerArgs from compiler instanceDylan Baker1-2/+1
Since the CompileArgs class already needs to know about the compiler, and we really need at least per-lanaguage if not per-compiler CompilerArgs classes, let's get the CompilerArgs instance from the compiler using a method.

2020-06-13Include the dep itself in extra_paths for WindowsJon Turney1-0/+1
This is needed in the case where a custom_target directly depends on a shared library, and somehow loads it. (Specifically this can be the case with gtkdoc, when it invokes gtkdoc-scangobj, which will build and run it's own code to load a shared library, to introspect it)
2020-06-13Handle multiple substitutions in eval_custom_target_command()Jon Turney1-29/+30
Handle command arguments which contain multiple substitutions correctly in Backend.eval_custom_target_command() In particular, gnome.gtkdoc() makes arguments of the form '--cflags -I@SOURCE_ROOT@ -I@BUILD_ROOT' (where these arguments are then passed down to a compiler invocation) Normally, these are subsequently made right by NinjaBackend.replace_paths(), but if Backend.as_meson_exe_cmdline() decides that the command needs to be pickled, that doesn't happen. (Although having two places where this substitution might happen smells really bad)
2020-06-05backend: There is no need for 'compiler-specific escaping' anymoreJon Turney1-23/+7
Now that all command-line escaping for ninja is dealt with in the ninja backend, escape_extra_args() shouldn't need to do anything. But tests of existing behaviour rely on all backslashes in defines being C escaped: This means that Windows-style paths including backslashes can be safely used, but makes it impossible to have a define containing a C escape.

Otherwise a wrapper script which takes an executable as an argument will mistakenly run when that executable is cross compiled. This does not wrap said executable in an exe_wrapper, just skip it. Fixes #5982
2020-05-18backends: ensure that test executables can be run when passed as argumentsDylan Baker1-0/+5
If an executable is passed as an argument to a script in the build directory that it resides in then it will not execute (on *nix) due to a lack of ./. Ie, `foo` must be called as `./foo`. If it is called from a different directory it will work. Ie `../foo` or `bar/foo`. Fixes #5984

Gtest can output junit results with a command line switch. We can parse this to get more detailed results than the returncode, and put those in our own Junit output. We basically just throw away the top level 'testsuites' object, then fixup the names of the tests, and shove that into our junit.

2020-04-20Compiler options per langJohn Ericson1-7/+10
A current rather untyped storage of options is one of the things that contributes to the options code being so complex. This takes a small step in synching down by storing the compiler options in dicts per language. Future work might be replacing the langauge strings with an enum, and defaultdict with a custom struct, just like `PerMachine` and `MachineChoice`.
