[Buildroot] need help adding apache to buildroot

[Jenkins, Lee]

Hello. I'm adding apache httpd to my buildroot project but I'm stuck and need some help.

Here's what I've done so far:


1.       created a directory buildroot/package/apache

2.       created buildroot/package/apache/Config.in (see below)

3.       as a starting point, downloaded the panda-buildroot apache.mk (see below)  to buildroot/package/apache

4.       added a line <<source "package/apache/Config.in">> to buildroot/package/Config.in under "Networking applications"

5.       ran "make menuconfig", selected "apache" in "Package Selection" > "Networking applications", saved & exited

6.       ran "make" and expected httpd to be built and show up in my rootfs target. It was not there.

7.       ran "make apache-source" as a test, but make replies: "No rule to make target `apache-source'. Stop."

I expected make to pick up the new package, but that's clearly not happening. What am I missing?

If you're using latest git buildroot this has changed to:

$(eval $(autotools-package))

So the package infrastructure isn't evaluating (parsing) your package at
all.

[Buildroot] need help adding apache to buildroot

[Jenkins, Lee]

Gustavo & Thomas, thanks for the quick replies!

After a few changes to apache.mk the build started doing its thing, only to fail in mid stride.

The root problem is that the apache make process builds a binary (or maybe more than one) on the BUILD system that are then used to complete the build, but when cross-compiling, the binaries are being built for the target system instead of the build system. Ugh.

The good news is I found a patch that provides a CC_FOR_BUILD variable to fix the problem. However, the patch is not an "official" apache patch, but hosted at a different location here: http://people.apache.org/~fuankg/diffs/httpd-2.2.x-cross_compile.diff. If I'm reading the buildroot docs correctly, if I add APACHE_PATCH to apache.mk it will require the patch to be at the same URL as the tarball. Ugh.

Are the "patch hooks" simply shell commands? How egregious would it be (from a buildroot maintainer perspective) to use the patch hooks to wget the patch and apply it? :-)

Is there a simpler solution I'm not aware of?

IMHO, this patch is small enough to be included in Buildroot tree.

Download manually the patch, place it in your package directory and name it 
RAWNAME-DESCRIPTION.patch (apache-cross-compile-fix.patch) (Exact naming rule 
is in packages/pkg-generic.mk:$(BUILD_DIR)/%/.stamp_patched).

Patch will be automatically applied.

Agreed, the patch seems small enough to be included in Buildroot
directly.

That said, I've also found a bit strange that our package
infrastructure enforces that the patches must be located on the same
site, at the same location, as the original tarball. It doesn't make
much sense. So we might want to change that in the future, but for this
specific case, having the patch directly in Buildroot makes sense, I
agree.

Best regards,

Thomas

I've added this patch to my tree, as I need it to cleanly add new packages,
and it will be included in my next pull-request.

I'll add my *-by tags at the same time.

Thank you! :-)

Yann E. MORIN.

Hm. Not specific to the patch per-se, but:

Currently the (single) PKG_PATCH is saved to a file which name is the
plain filename ("notdir") of the patch.

In case one uses a custom directory to store all downloaded files (eg. I
use "${HOME}/src" so I don't have to download them again and again), this
directory gets cluttered with many files that are difficult to link to
the package they apply to.

It gets even worse with this change.

What about saving the patches to a file named thus:
   $(PKG_NAME)-$(PKG_VERSION)-$(PKG_PATCH_FILENAME).patch

Yann E. MORIN.

Sure!

Patch follows, Looks doing the job. Nevertheless, I begin to found this feature a 
little difficult to read (euphemism...). Someone has an opinion about coding 
style?

Well, I meant: $(PKG_NAME)-$(PKG_VERSION)-$(PKG_PATCH_FILENAME)
We should keep the original filename (in case it is compresed).

forget 'basename', don;t add '.patch' (the file may be compressed, we
shouldnot rename it or we won;t be able to apply it.

> +			$(call DOWNLOAD,$($(PKG)_SITE)/$(p))\

The naming should also be applied for the 'plain-file' case, too.

Make that consistent with the above, please.

Also, here you're doing two indepndent changes:
  - change the downloaded file names
  - allow plain URLs

This should be two different patches (multiple URLs first, I'd suggest).

In this case, I think files ending with .diff will not work (and compressed 
patches are not supported without a HOOK).

[Buildroot] [PATCH 2/2] Add $(PKG_NAME) in name of downloaded patches

  Not really... There is just a chance that the patch isn't named 
according to the package name, which could lead to conflicts between 
patch names. But currently there is not a single patch for which the 
patch name differs from the archive name.

  How about adding a new function, CLEAN_DOWNLOAD_NAME, that does

$($(PKG)_NAME)-$($(PKG)_VERSION)-$(patsubst \
   $($(PKG)_VERSION)-%,%,$(patsubst $($(PKG)_NAME)-%,%,$(1)))

  so that the names don't get too long in the usual case?

  The same could also be applied to the package archives.

  But really I think it's making things more complex without being 
necessary in practice. I don't expect this situation of conflicting names 
is likely to occur.

  Arnout

  I would have put the condition inside the DOWNLOAD call, even though 
that's a bit less efficient. But I guess it's just a matter of taste.

I am not sure because we don't do this for tarballs: we keep their
original name. For example Python-3.3.0 even though the package is
named python3, cJSONFiles.zip even though the package is named cjson,
etc.

So either we decide to keep the original name for everything, or we
decide to use our own name for everything.

So, given two packages, 'foo' and 'bar', what will happen if both have
a patch file named 'mktemp.patch' ?

 1- only one will be downloaded
 2- it will be applied onto both packages

Err... :-(

No, we have to keep the patch filename as-is, or apply-patches.sh will
not know it has to uncompress it. So, do not append '.patch' .

Besides, we do not want to create sub-dirs in the DL dir (which can be
a custom dir, as it is in my case).

So, my proposal still stands: ;-)
    $(PKG_NAME)-$(PKG_VERSION)-$(PKG_PATCH_FILENAME)

Gustavo gave the explanation for this.

I'm however going to add a few more comments below, as I hope you'll be
submitting this package to Buildroot once it works.

You should add the upstream URL of the project here, separated from the
main description by an empty newline. (See how other packages do it).

We usually put an empty new line between the header and the first
variable declaration.

> #APACHE_SITE       = http://mir2.ovh.net/ftp.apache.org/dist/httpd/

Please remove unneeded comments if you want to submit this package to
Buildroot.

> APACHE_SOURCE = httpd-$(APACHE_VERSION).tar.bz2

This line is not needed, as it is the default.

> APACHE_AUTORECONF = YES

This is generally not needed, as releases shipped as tarballs usually
have the configure script and the Makefile.in pre-generated. So there
should be a comment above this line that explains why it is needed.

The CC, CFLAGS and LDFLAGS are not needed here, they are already passed
by the Buildroot autotools infrastructure.

--host is already passed by Buildroot.

--prefix is already passed by Buildroot (and /apacheSW/ is not a
standard and appropriate location).

This is not needed, Buildroot already has a default
<pkg>_CONFIGURE_CMDS for autotools packages that does the right thing.
If it doesn't then please add a comment above that explains why we need
to override the CONFIGURE_CMDS.

You should use APACHE_INSTALL_INIT_SYSV to install an init script. See
package/lighttpd/lighttpd.mk for an example. Also, please name your
script S90apache in package/apache/. So in the end, it should look like:

define APACHE_INSTALL_INIT_SYSV
	[ -f $(TARGET_DIR)/etc/init.d/S50apache ] || \
		$(INSTALL) -D -m 755 package/apache/S50apache \
			$(TARGET_DIR)/etc/init.d/S50apache
endef

Thanks!

[Buildroot] need help adding apache to buildroot

Stephan,

I did. It's a bit of a hack. Understatement, let me try again. It's a huge hack.

Some parts of buildroot are still pretty opaque to me and unfortunately I don't really have to the time to figure out how to make a proper patch.

I also had trouble with the patch command not recursing sub-directories. The diff file appeared to have the proper paths, but I'm obviously missing something.

Anyway, what I have works, but it clearly needs cleaning up before adding to buildroot and I just don't have the time to do it.

If anyone cares to try, I've included the makefile, Config, and startup script, plus the original patch/diff file and the break-out files that are called out in apache.mk.

Hopefully someone else with a little more expertise with buildroot and patch can clean these up for everyone else's benefit.

grace & peace,
Lee Jenkins

# the stock apache package provides two cross-compile options --host and

# the build machine and the target machine, but they don't work as advertised.

# luckily, I found a patch that allows apache to be built using an additional
# variable CC_FOR_BUILD that fixes this problem. the patch was downloaded from
#      http://people.apache.org/~fuankg/diffs/httpd-2.2.x-cross_compile.diff
# strangely, the patch utility on my build machine would not apply patches
# to files in sub-directories. therefore I've divided the patch diff into
# parts for each directory and applied the patches separately.
# also, I tried using the patch hooks, but it appears that X_PRE_PATCH_HOOKS
# is only executing if X_PATCH is defined -- and X_PATCH requires the patch
# to be located at X_SITE and this patch is not located at the same site
# as the apache package. ugh. so the files get patched as the first step in
# the configure process below.
