Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH] package/harfbuzz: fix race during compilation
Date: Fri, 6 Nov 2026 14:54:15 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261106135416.1844554-2-buildroot@heine.tech> (raw)
[0] changed the order of generating the shader headers. This introduced
a race condition during build. Sometimes the headers are not in place
when the gpu objects are compiled.
This patch introduces a dependency on the headers in the meson build.
The issue landed in buildroot when the bump to Harfbuzz 14.0.0 happened
Fixes:

Fixes: 2fb10c689c ("package/harfbuzz: bump version to 14.0.0")

+Subject: [PATCH] meson: order GPU compilation after shader header generation
+
+The shader header custom targets are built by default, but their outputs
+are not included in the sources of libharfbuzz-gpu. This allows Ninja to
+compile the GPU sources concurrently with shader header generation.
+
+The generator also copies each generated header into the source directory.
+The GPU sources use quoted includes, which find these source-tree copies
+first. Since the copy truncates its destination before writing, a compiler
+running concurrently can read an empty header and report undeclared shader
+symbols.
+
+Collect the shader header targets and add them to the GPU library sources.
+Meson then orders compilation after those targets have completed, including
+their copies back into the source tree.
+
+Keep the existing build-by-default behavior unchanged.
+
+Fixes: b1ad797 ("[gpu] Commit stringized shader headers; auto-regenerate like ragel")
