[Buildroot] [1/1] civetweb: new package

[Buildroot] [1/1] civetweb: new package

[Thomas Davis]

Submission attempt #2 with recommended changes.

1. Change make file ifdef's to ifeq.
2. Copyright lines removed to prevent confusion.
3. Put end of line in make file.
4. Submitted with git mail if it works, otherwise in plain text
5. Rebased, rebuilt and retested with buildroot.

The explaination of BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_UCLIBC check in
Config.in was answered in a previous post.  If that will
always be included, I can remove the check.

BTW:  git --send-mail is not working for me.  But I made sure this
mail is in plain-text mode.

Thanks,
Thomas

[Buildroot] [1/1] civetweb: new package

[Thomas Petazzoni]

Dear Thomas Davis,

Thanks, this patch looks much better. Some comments below.

See
http://buildroot.org/downloads/manual/manual.html#_patch_revision_changelog
for details on how the commit log should be formatted. Essentially,
what you're missing is that the details of what changed between the
previous version should go below the "---" sign (or be part of a
separate cover letter). Everything that is before the "---" will be
part of the commit log for the eternity, and we don't want that. See
the documentation for details.

Also, you should use --subject-prefix="PATCHv2" when generating your
patches, so that the title of your patch makes it clear which version
we're looking at.

As Thomas said, this is not correct, as we don't want to prevent this
package from being built with an external toolchain, or a glibc
toolchain.

If what you want to express is that your package needs thread support,
then you should add a:

	depends on BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS

and that's it.

We generally do not indent sub-configuration options.

I think this IPv6 option is not needed, the package should
automatically enable IPv6 support when BR2_INET_IPV6 is y.

Why are you adding this largefile dependency here? From where does the
reference to util-linux comes?

If this option needs the "lua" package to be built, then you need to
"select BR2_PACKAGE_LUA" in the Config.in file, and add "lua" to
CIVETWEB_DEPENDENCIES in your .mk file.

We generally enable SSL support automatically when BR2_PACKAGE_OPENSSL
is enabled, so this option would not be necessary.

Not needed, as per the above.

Please answer the question above to decide what to do about this.

Not needed, as per the above.

This should be:

	depends on !BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS

This line is not needed since this is the default.

You're not using git send-email: your patch has been line-wrapped by
your e-mail client, so it still cannot be applied as is.

We generally use something like CIVETWEB_CONF_OPT for the configuration
options.

Did you really test your package? This test is testing if the string
"BR2_PACKAGE_UTIL_LINUX_FALLOCATE" is equal to the string "y", so it
will always be false. Your tests should look like:

ifeq ($(BR2_....),y)

endif

see the thousands of examples available throughout the Buildroot source
code.

> +       CIVETWEB_COPT += -DHAVE_POSIX_FALLOCATE=0
> +endif

However, this test is generally wrong. You're confusing the
availability of the 'fallocate' command line tool from the util-linux
package with the availability of the fallocate() system call.

I think you can pass -DHAVE_POSIX_FALLOCATE=1 in all cases: it's always
available in glibc/eglibc toolchain, and our default configuration for
uClibc enables fallocate() as well.

This should be:

ifeq ($(BR2_INET_IPV6),y)
CIVETWEB_CONF_OPT += WITH_IPV6=1
endif

Ditto. And it doesn't need the 'lua' package as a dependency?

Make this use BR2_PACKAGE_OPENSSL instead, as explained above.

This is badly line-wrapped.

This is also badly line-wrapped. You should use $(TARGET_DIR)/usr as
the prefix, ditto for the documentation (and shouldn't DOCUMENT_ROOT
refer to $(TARGET_DIR) as well ?). Also, this line should be split:

define CIVETWEB_INSTALL_TARGET_CMDS
	$(MAKE) CC="$(TARGET_CC)" -C $(@D) install \
		DOCUMENT_ROOT=$(TARGET_DIR)/usr/share/doc/civetweb \
		PREFIX=$(TARGET_DIR)/usr \

[Buildroot] [1/1] civetweb: new package

[Thomas Davis]

I will make the suggested changes and retest and re-submit.  To answer
outstanding questions.

1. BR2_LARGEFILE is required by SQLITE3 which is a dependency in the
LUA support.

2. DOCUMENT_ROOT is the path from with-in the chroot to the documents
folder.  This is a value written into a configuration file, not an
actual directory something gets placed in.  Normally it would have
been automatically determined by PREFIX, but in the fake root
situation it has to overridden so it works correctly inside the
chroot.  It is not an install path itself.

Thank you very much for the help!

Thomas

[Buildroot] [1/1] civetweb: new package

[Thomas Petazzoni]

Dear Thomas Davis,

Ok. This is something you could potentially address by passing
-DSQLITE_DISABLE_LFS to the Sqlite build when !BR2_LARGEFILE. See
package/sqlite/sqlite.mk in Buildroot. But ok, it's not mandatory to
support this use case for civetweb.

So, what I'd like to see is something like:

config BR2_PACKAGE_CIVETWEB_LUA_SUPPORT
	bool "lua support"
	# required by the bundled sqlite code
	depends on BR2_LARGEFILE
	comment
	  Enable Lua support in Civetweb. Note that this will use a
	  version of Lua and Sqlite bundled within the Civetweb

Right, discovered this after having a deeper look at civetweb. Then
please set it to /var/www, which is what we do for other web servers in
Buildroot.

Thanks!

[Buildroot] [1/1] civetweb: new package

[Thomas Davis]

Thanks once again for the reply and the detailed examination.  I will
see about having a non large file option in the civetweb build and
test that separately before continuing.    I will also add the comment
about LUA and sqlite3 not coming from buildroot and move the document
directory as well.

Thanks,
Thomas Davis

As I said, support non-large file builds is really not mandatory. You
can submit your package without supporting non-large file builds for
the moment, and if you're interested, you can send later a followup
patch to make this possible. But we have plenty of packages that don't
support non-large file builds in Buildroot, so it's not really a
problem to have another one.

Thanks,

Thomas

Sorry if this a repeat.  I tried submitting this via git like specified in
the documentation but I think it was not working.  I checked the archive

Could you explain why you added this comment?
Do you want to add your copyright statement to this .mk file?

And what about the MIT license? Buildroot is GPL, so any .mk file in
it will also be GPL. Do you want to dual-license this file?

In general we use the format
ifeq ($(BR2_FOO),y)
...
endif

instead of
ifdef BR2_FOO
...
endif

I don't know if there is a particular reason for it, but I would
advocate to use that for consistency reasons.

There is no newline at the end of your .mk file, this should be fixed too.

And also generally speaking, the patch should be sent using 'git
send-email', because HTML formatted patches that are line wrapped are
not really practical to be applied on Buildroot.

Best regards,

[Buildroot] [1/1] civetweb: new package

[Thomas Davis]

Thank you so much for the quick review!

>What is the reason for this uclibc check?

I noticed that there were several alternatives for pthreads in uclibc and
the only one that not compatible is BR2_PTHREADS_NONE.  I was afraid of
additional variants may occur in the future and I am basically only
excluding the one option.  Further, if it is possible to exclude uclibc, it
would not be compatible either.  If you feel it is overkill I can simply it.

> Could you explain why you added this comment?
Civetweb is MIT and the MIT license does not prevent it from being included
in GPL code while the inverse is not true. If I put GPL code in Civetweb,
it compromises the MIT license and currently a copy of these files are in
the repository, at least until included with buildroot.  If dual licensing
the file is the best way, I can do that, or if preferred I can remove the
statement altogether.

> In general we use the format
> ifeq ($(BR2_FOO),y)

No problem, i can fix that

>  \ No newline at end of file

will fix that too

Please advise on the uclib check and the license header and I will submit a
new patch.

Thank you,
Thomas Davis

Dear Thomas Davis,

Please don't reply to me directly, always keep the list in Cc for
Buildroot related discussions that started on the list.

Are you sure the From: address that was shown when using 'git
send-email' is really the address with which you've subscribed to the
list? I strongly suspect something like that, many other contributors
are using git send-email with the Buildroot mailing list without any
problem.

Can you try to 'git send-email' me your patch, so that I can see if
something obvious prevents your e-mail from reaching the list?

Best regards,

Thomas

Yeah, sounded like a fun start of e-mail for something signed:
