[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/4] package/hiredis: enable host package

[James Hilliard]

The host-hiredis package is needed for the upcoming ccache update.

Note that we must disable ccache when building host-hiredis itself
as host-ccache depends on host-hiredis.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 3/4] package/pkgconf: disable ccache for host package

[James Hilliard]

We need to disable ccache when building host-pkgconf as the upcoming
ccache update depends on host-pkgconf indirectly due to host-cmake
depending on host-pkgconf which will be required due to host-ccache
migrating from autotools to cmake package infrastructure.

Re: [Buildroot] [PATCH 1/4] package/hiredis: enable host package

[Yann E. MORIN]

James, All,

There's this already pending, old-ish patch from Dominik and
Anders:
    https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/buildroot/patch/20220807093853.15579-1-dmrauh@posteo.de/

that tries to bump ccache.

I prefer your series, because everything is split as much as possible,
but I am looking at both patches to see if we can pick the best of the
two. And indeed, see below...

On 2023-01-06 18:04 -0700, James Hilliard spake thusly:

This is the first assignment, so no need to use append-assignment, jsut
use a simple assignemnt.

> +	-DCMAKE_C_COMPILER_LAUNCHER="" \
> +	-DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_LAUNCHER="" \

The patch from Dominik and Anders uses -U to "unset" the variables,
while you set them to empty. I think unsetting is semantically more
correct, and I checked: it works.

Also, the following options are not related to being build before
ccache, but the comment makes it confusing, so I prefer we split the
assignment when only parts of it is covered by a coment:

    HOST_HIREDIS_CONF_OPTS = \
        -DDISABLE_TESTS=ON \
        -DENABLE_SSL=OFF

    # Set CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE to Release or the libraries will be suffixed with "d"
    HOST_HIREDIS_CONF_OPTS += -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release

    # We are a ccache dependency, so we can't use ccache; reset the
    # options set by the cmake infra
    HOST_HIREDIS_CONF_OPTS += \
        -UCMAKE_C_COMPILER_LAUNCHER \
        -UCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_LAUNCHER

However, I wonder whether the -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release makes sense.
Ideed, we need to set it for the target variant, because we can do a
debug build or not, and we set CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE in toolchainfile.cmake.
But for the host variant, we do not use toolchainfile.cmake, and we
never explicitly pass the build type on the command line either, so we
especially never set it to "Debug", and so the 'd' suffix should not be
added.

Ah, but CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE can come from the environment... Damn.

OK, so I did a few changes, and applied to master, thanks:

  - add Dominik and Anders in Cc to ack they provided inspiration
  - use -Ufoo instead of -Dfoo=""  (as per Dominik & Anders)
  - reorder CONF_OPTS assignments

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.

Rather than duplicating the environment in both _CMDS, I've introduce
HOST_ZSTD_ENV.

Applied to master, thanks.

I've added a note about having to take care of propagating the no-cache
build doen to the autotools-related packages if pkgconf ever needs

This misses a critical part: what prevents cmake from using ccache to
build?

Dominik and Anders got that correct in their patch:

    +# we are built before ccache
    +HOST_CMAKE_CONFIGURE_OPTS = \
    +	$(HOST_CONFIGURE_OPTS) \
    +	CC="$(HOSTCC_NOCCACHE)" \
    +	GCC="$(HOSTCC_NOCCACHE)" \
    +	CXX="$(HOSTCXX_NOCCACHE)"
    +
     define HOST_CMAKE_CONFIGURE_CMDS
     	(cd $(@D); \
    -		$(HOST_CONFIGURE_OPTS) \
    +		$(HOST_CMAKE_CONFIGURE_OPTS) \
     		CFLAGS="$(HOST_CMAKE_CFLAGS)" \

(Arguably, CFLAGS assignment should have been moved into
HOST_CMAKE_CONFIGURE_OPTS as well.)

Dominik and Anders made hiredis an optional dependency. Given that
hiredis builds very, very fast (just about 3s here), I wonder if that
really makes sense to make it optional; hiredis has no dependency that
are not dependencies of ccache, so there is no hidden overhead.

If hiredis support is compiled in, does that make it mandatory to use a
hiredis server, or does ccache still uses local files by default?

If the latter, then I think a mandatory dependency is OK.

Dominik, Anders, did you make it a optional because of a previous review
by Thomas asking so?

Same as for hiredis: use -U.

Err, this is probably bad and the comment above no longer matches the
code.

Did you meant using 'home_dir +' to replace '%s' (see Dominik and
Anders' patch):

    HOST_CCACHE_DEFAULT_CCACHE_DIR = $(patsubst \"$(HOME)/%,home_dir + \"/%,\"$(BR_CACHE_DIR)\")

This needs a bit of consolidation and further explanations, becasue
ccache now has more locations where it looks for, and we do not want it
to default to those:

    home_dir + "/.ccache"           -> the legacy location
    home_dir + "/.cache/ccache"     -> new, XDG-based
    home_dir + "/.config/ccache"    -> new, XDG-based

Also, it seems that we need a patch to use BR_CACHE_DIR from the
environment...

I've applied that part with just host-hiredis, host-pkgconf, and host-zstd,
and left host-cmake out for now.

Default is to use local files.

Yeah, it didn't seem like it made sense to make it optional since hiredis is a
small library.

Well matching against the full 'home_dir +' doesn't seem to be needed,
we can just target the appended strings for replacement which is a bit
cleaner:

I have them all being overridden now in my v3:

I cleaned this up a bit in my v3 to handle the cases from Dominik and

The decision to make hiredis support optional was only based on the fact 
that, well, it is purely optional :)

In hindsight I agree to enable the hiredis backend by default since
hiredis builds very quickly and does not pull in additional dependencies!

Maybe the more interesting question is whether it is really advisable to
still build ccache as part of Buildroot since, in contrast to hiredis,
building cmake, which is required by ccache, takes significantly longer 
and consumes much more resources.

Well we use the prebuilt build host cmake when available so this
probably isn't that big an issue.
