[Buildroot] [PATCH 0/6] Warn user on missing optional dependencies

[Buildroot] [PATCH 0/6] Warn user on missing optional dependencies

[Jérôme Pouiller]

Following series aim to help developers (maybe with help of autobuilders) to
find missing optional dependencies. The principle is to list shared libraries
needed for each ELF found in $TARGET_DIR and check if it does not missing in
dependency list.

 - Patches 1 and 2 implement this feature
 - Patch 3 is a proposal to make packages-file-list.txt compatible with top
   level parallelize
 - Last 3 patches are fixes for errors I found for my configuration

Notice, I also work on reproducible builds. I am going to send my work soon.
Using it and fixing errors found by current series, I am able to do
reproducible builds with TLP enabled (and without per package staging
directory).

J?r?me Pouiller (6):
  check-shlibs-deps: new script to check shared library dependencies
  pkg-generic: add check_shlibs_deps hooks
  infra: fix 'packages-file-list.txt' with TLP
  ntp: fix missing optional dependencies
  xterm: depend on libXinerama if appropriate
  xserver_xorg-server: fix dependency with dbus

[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/6] check-shlibs-deps: new script to check shared library dependencies

[Jérôme Pouiller]

Add a script that show or check binary dependencies based on linked shared
libraries.

To do that, it scan NEEDED entries in ELF header and get corresponding package
from packages-file-list.txt.

It have 3 modes:

    check-shlibs-deps -b OUTDIR
        Scan $TARGET_DIR and display found dependencies for all ELF files

    check-shlibs-deps -b OUTDIR -p PACKAGE
        Display found dependencies for PACKAGE

    check-shlibs-deps -b OUTDIR -p PACKAGE -d DEP1,DEP2,...
        Display missing dependencies for PACKAGE

Unfortunately, `packages-file-list.txt' is not properly filled when Top Level
Parallelization is enabled. Therefore, check-shlibs-deps does not (yet) work
with it.

I wonder why relpath is needed here? since it is resloving relative
path from the current location, i.e. BR's top directory.
BTW, is it really the BR's top dir. you want to use here as start path
to compute the relative path, not $(O)? How does this behave with
out-of-tree build?

Side note:
There is this project [1] out-there that looks nice, but I wonder if
it is worthwhile to add/embedded another python modules dependency to
BR.

ditto for relpath/start path.

What is the difference between "deps = None" and "deps = []"?

Please, put all the main code under a 'if __name__ == "__main__":' block.

In subsequent case, I need to call realpath() in order to resolve
symlinks. realpath() return an absolute paths, but I prefer to convert
them in relative paths because they are smaller in error messages.

In case above, relpath is necessary because 'builddir' may be absolute.

I do want to make a difference between [] and None (see below). So I

'None' means user don't to check dependencies (-d is not used) while '[]'
means package shouldn't have dependencies.

However, my current implementation is broken. Following command does not
work as expected:

  check-shlibs-deps -b OUTDIR -p PACKAGE -d ""

I will change that.

Since you now received some feedback, I've marked patches 1/6 and 2/6
as "Changes Requested" in patchwork. Could you address the comments and
submit an updated version?

I think this is a very useful thing, and we'd like to have it in
Buildroot.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 2/6] pkg-generic: add check_shlibs_deps hooks

[Jérôme Pouiller]

Call check-shlibs-deps after each package. Errors reported by this hooks mean
the package could compile differently depending of build order (= missing
optional dependency).

Currently, missed dependencies are only logged to
`$(BUILD_DIR)/missing-dependencies.txt'. In future, we may remove `-w' in order
to make these errors fatal.

In order to get correct results from step_check_shlibs_deps, we need to compute
recursive dependencies for package. get_recursive_dependencies is brittle, don't
try to add spaces or line breaks inside its definition.

A good idea to find many missed optional dependencies would be to use this
script with LTP. Unfortunately, check-shlibs-deps does not (yet) work with it.

You could introduce a inner-get_recursive_dependencies that takes 2
arguments and keep the user API get_recursive_dependencies only taking
1 argument, which just calls inner-get_recursive_dependencies with an
empty 2nd argument.

Here $(CONFIG_DIR) looks dubious... Why do you use it instead of $(O)?

[Buildroot] [PATCH 3/6] infra: fix 'packages-file-list.txt' with TLP

[Jérôme Pouiller]

Until now, `$(BUILD_DIR)/packages-file-list.txt' was not filled properly when
top level parallelization is enabled. Therefore, all scripts that rely on
packages-file-list.txt did not work.

In order to fix it,this patch place target installation task in a critical
section.

I personally don't really like this retry loop around flock, but since
package-file-list.txt is a global file, I don't really see how to do
otherwise. Unless storing a per-package file with just the time/date of
the start/end of each step for this package, and then have a
post-processing logic at the very end of the build that regroups all
those per-package files into a single global file, ordering the entries
by their timestamp. Don't know if it's really better.

I think that any tool involving parallel processing need one day or another
to protect code inside a critical section. Even if we find another way to 
solve current problem, I am pretty sure we will need it later, anyway.

However, I think I am going to modify my patch in order to provide a
generic mutex implementation that would be enabled iff TLP is enable.

I wonder where I should place lock file. In add, tools like fakedate,
check-shlibs-deps and other QA tools could also generate log or
temporary files. Currently, we place all of them in build/ without any
specific rules. Maybe we should have a naming policy for these files?
(prefix them with "BR_"?) or place them elsewhere than in build/?

[Buildroot] [PATCH 4/6] ntp: fix missing optional dependencies

However, build order with these libraries is not defined.

In order to keep things simple, we enforce build order even if ntpq/ntpdc are
not selected.

I've applied your patch, after doing one small change, see below.

I've replaced this by --without-lineeditlibs, which has the same
effect but is more commonly used in Buildroot. I did check that with
the libedit package installed, but forcing --without-lineeditlibs
really causes ntp to ignore libedit, which proves that it does work.
