[Buildroot] [PATCH 0/5] Align library locations in target and staging

[Thomas De Schampheleire]

From: Thomas De Schampheleire <thomas.de.schampheleire@gmail.com>

As discussed on the Buildroot developer days, Buildroot installs some libraries
in a different location in target than in staging. This is specifically seen for
libstdc++ and libatomic.

This patch series tackles that problem and performs related cleanup.



Thomas De Schampheleire (5):
  toolchain-external: blackfin: install FDPIC libraries also to staging
  toolchain-external: remove unused calculation of ARCH_SUBDIR
  toolchain-external: extract installation of gdbserver to separate
    define
  toolchain-external: align library locations in target and staging dir
  toolchain-external: unify LIB_EXTERNAL_LIBS and USR_LIB_EXTERNAL_LIBS

[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/5] toolchain-external: blackfin: install FDPIC libraries also to staging

[Thomas De Schampheleire]

From: Thomas De Schampheleire <thomas.de.schampheleire@gmail.com>

For external Blackfin toolchains with BR2_BFIN_INSTALL_FDPIC_SHARED set,
the FDPIC shared libraries are currently only copied to the target
directory, not to staging.

For debugging purposes, an unstripped copy in staging is necessary.
Moreover, this change will simplify a subsequent change that lines up the
location of shared libraries between target and staging directories.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 2/5] toolchain-external: remove unused calculation of ARCH_SUBDIR

[Thomas De Schampheleire]

From: Thomas De Schampheleire <thomas.de.schampheleire@gmail.com>

In TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_INSTALL_TARGET_LIBS, ARCH_SUBDIR is calculated but not
used, and can thus be removed. Since SYSROOT_DIR is only used for the
calculation of ARCH_SUBDIR, it can be removed too.

  This was the only place where we gave that error message, so it should be kept.

  That said, it probably wouldn't have shown anyway, because we would already 
error out with an incomprehensible error message in the configure step. Bottom 
line: move it to the configure step first.

  Otherwise, it looks good however. So, since it anyway didn't work properly 
before, I'll already give this patch my

  As discussed with Romain, please disregard this comment, the check is indeed 
still there in the configure step.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 3/5] toolchain-external: extract installation of gdbserver to separate define

[Thomas De Schampheleire]

From: Thomas De Schampheleire <thomas.de.schampheleire@gmail.com>

The installation of the gdbserver binary has no relation to the installation
of the target libraries. Moving it to a separate define improves the
understandability of the code and makes later refactoring easier.

It's a good idea but can we instead define TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_INSTALL_GDBSERVER
only when BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_GDB_SERVER_COPY is set to y ?

ifeq ($(BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_GDB_SERVER_COPY),y)
define TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_INSTALL_GDBSERVER
...

This allow to remove this line ^^^

  While you do that: I think it would be better to have TARGET in the name, so 
TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_INSTALL_TARGET_GDBSERVER.

  These two should ideally also have TARGET in their name, but that's a separate 
change of course.

I've done the following changes:

    [Thomas:
     - move the BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_GDB_SERVER_COPY condition as a make
       condition rather than a shell condition, as suggested by Romain
       Naour.
     - rename the TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_INSTALL_GDBSERVER variable to
       TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_INSTALL_TARGET_GDBSERVER as suggested by Arnout.]

and applied. Thanks!

Thomas

[Buildroot] [PATCH 4/5] toolchain-external: align library locations in target and staging dir

[Thomas De Schampheleire]

From: Thomas De Schampheleire <thomas.de.schampheleire@gmail.com>

The toolchain-external logic is roughly:
- populate the staging dir by rsyncing the entire ${ARCH_LIB_DIR} and
  usr/${ARCH_LIB_DIR} from sysroot.
- populate the target dir by explictly copying some libraries from sysroot
  into target/lib and some other libraries in target/usr/lib, the split
  being hardcoded into buildroot regardless of the location in the sysroot.

This means that a library libfoo could be located in:
  staging/lib/libfoo.so
  target/usr/lib/libfoo.so

When debugging an application that links against this library, gdb will
fruitlessly search for 'usr/lib/libfoo.so' in staging, and then suggest to
use 'set solib-search-path' which is a hack, really.

To solve the problem, we need to make sure that libraries from the toolchain
are installed in the same relative location in staging and target.
Achieve this by:
- replacing the convoluted search for libraries using for+find in sysroot
  with a simple find in staging.
- determining DESTDIR for each library individually based on the location in
  staging.
- treating LIB_EXTERNAL_LIBS and USR_LIB_EXTERNAL_LIBS equivalently

These changes also allow for the removal of most arguments to
copy_toolchain_lib_root in the method itself and their callers.

Test procedure:
- set configuration for a given toolchain
- make clean toolchain
- find output/target | sort > /tmp/out-before
- apply patch
- make clean toolchain
- find output/target | sort > /tmp/out-after
- diff -u /tmp/out-before /tmp/out-after

The only changes should be some libraries moving from lib to usr/lib or vice
versa. Notable examples being libstdc++ and libatomic.

Test notes:
I have executed the mentioned test procedure for all external toolchains
listed on http://autobuild.buildroot.org/toolchains/configs/, for the x86
ARMv7a Thumb2 EABIhf Linaro toolchain, and for an internal glibc toolchain.
An x86_64 qemu image was booted, both with internal and external toolchain.

Using an arbitrary toolchain (BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LINARO_AARCH64 2015.11)

The only diff is:

before:
output/target/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6
output/target/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.21
output/target/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.21-gdb.py

after:
output/target/lib/libstdc++.so.6
output/target/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.21
output/target/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.21-gdb.py

Now libstdc++.so.6 is located in the same directory on the target than the
toolchain sysroot (/lib/libstdc++.so.6).

toolchain sysroot:
ext-toolchain/aarch64-linux-gnu/libc/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.21
ext-toolchain/aarch64-linux-gnu/libc/lib/libstdc++.so.6

  -65 net lines, that's the kind of patch I like!

  -follow is documented as depracated, use -L instead. But why do we need this? 
I tried without it and it seems to work just the same. I also don't think the 
error redirect is needed anymore (at least when the -follow is removed).

  I would have written this as

DESTDIR=`echo $${LIBPATH} | sed "s,^$(STAGING_DIR)/\(.*\)/[^/]*,\1,"` ; \

but perhaps I'm too much of a regexp lover :-)

> +		mkdir -p $(TARGET_DIR)/$${DESTDIR}; \
>   		while true ; do \

  I wonder if the loop is still needed now. As far as I can see, the idea of 
this loop was to make sure that the library pointed to was also copied. But 
since we now copy everything even if it is not in the expected lib path, it 
shouldn't be needed anymore. Except if the library pointed to doesn't match the 
glob pattern we are searching for... Anyway, that's something for a separate patch.

  This can now be converted into a make condition instead of a shell condition, 
which simplifies the logic even more. Well, actually, it could have been a make 
condition from the start because all of the above doesn't do anything except set 
some variables...

I've applied after changing -follow to -L. Note that the -L needs to be
*before* $(STAGING_DIR), since the difference between -follow and -L is
that -L only applies to the arguments that *follow* it. And since
$(STAGING_DIR) is a symbolic link, we need -L before it.

I've left it as-is for now, those can be handled later if needed.

Yeah, I think I find Thomas DS version easier to understand.

The library pointed to doesn't always match the glob pattern. Let's
take the case of uClibc. The pattern for the C library itself is:

	libc.so.*

But for uClibc, we have:

	libc.so.1 -> libuClibc-1.0.12.so

and libuClibc-1.0.12.so doesn't match libc.so.*.

Before the previous patch, the installation of gdbserver was done as
part of the same variable, so that's why a make condition was not used.
But I've converted it to a make condition, now that it is possible.

Thanks for the review!

I was not aware about -L and agree that it is the right solution. I
used -follow just to make sure that STAGING_DIR is entered. It seems
to work without just because STAGING_DIR happens to be defined with a
trailing slash, in which case its contents are evaluated anyhow by
find. I considered this dependency too fragile and wanted it to work
even if someone optimizes away the trailing slash. Another solution
would be to add a trailing slash manually as $(STAGING_DIR)/ but -L is
much cleaner.

I agree with all other responses raised by ThomasP. I don't see any
other open points, but please let me know if I missed something.

I've made a few changes:

    [Thomas:
     - use -L instead of -follow in the find invocation, as suggested by
       Arnout.
     - move the BR2_STATIC_LIBS condition as a make condition rather than
       a shell condition, as suggested by Arnout.]

And applied, thanks!

[Buildroot] [PATCH 5/5] toolchain-external: unify LIB_EXTERNAL_LIBS and USR_LIB_EXTERNAL_LIBS

[Thomas De Schampheleire]

From: Thomas De Schampheleire <thomas.de.schampheleire@gmail.com>

With the alignment of toolchain library location in target and staging,
there is no need anymore for the distinction between LIB_EXTERNAL_LIBS and
USR_LIB_EXTERNAL_LIBS. Unify them into TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LIBS.

Related, update the help text of
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTRA_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LIBS.

It occurred to me that there has not been any feedback on this
toolchain-related patch series :-)
Anyone could spare some time to look at it?

  I've also done a review and a test of the entire series. There is a bit of 
reworking suggested by Romain in patch 3/5, the removal of -follow that I 
suggest in patch 4/5, and I would like to re-instate the --sysroot check in 
patch 2/5, but that's it.

  ThomasDS, will you respin or do we apply and make changes afterwards?

What do you think about moving the sysroot check to a helper function like I
propose in this series ? (Which needs to be rebased after ThomasDS's series as well)

http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/576578/
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/576580/

Thoughts ?

Best regards,
Romain

  That's a good solution, indeed. Actually, I had already applied those patches 
and missed that the check was now still done in the configure step but just as 
part of check_unusable_toolchain.

I think it makes sense to respin to keep history clean, unless you
prefer to apply first and deblock Romain. That is also fine by me. I
just need some time to do the respin and retest.

Thanks for the review both you and Romain, I really appreciate it.

  No, better if you do the respin. It's not going to take you months to retest, 
right?

  You're welcome. It was actually a lot less work than I feared.

The entire series is applied. I've also applied two additional cleanups
(see below). Thanks a lot for your work on this series. Not only it
makes the thing more functional, but it also makes the code simpler.
Definitely very good.

Thanks to Arnout and Romain for reviewing those not-so-simple changes!

commit ed2a15b79136db815e034aa9e5aa0635e91222ec

Date:   Mon Apr 25 22:53:11 2016 +0200

    toolchain-external: remove useless shell continuations
    
    When a message with MESSAGE, we can print it as the first command of
    the command sequence, and in this case, we don't need to use a shell
    continuation.
    
    In one case, the call to MESSAGE is moved a few lines up in the
    sequence of commands.

commit 12584c2c701fab1478da547dc85b69c3377e6d25
Author: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>
Date:   Mon Apr 25 22:12:43 2016 +0200

    toolchain-external: rename Blackfin related special variables
    
    As suggested by Arnout, this commit renames:
    
     - TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_INSTALL_BFIN_FDPIC to
       TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_INSTALL_TARGET_BFIN_FDPIC
    
     - TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_INSTALL_BFIN_FLAT to
       TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_INSTALL_TARGET_BFIN_FLAT
    
    Which makes it clear that those variables are installing libraries to
    the target, and make their naming more consistent with the naming of
    other variables in the file.

Thomas, Arnout, Romain: many thanks indeed for your review and apply
effort, I greatly appreciate it!
As you noticed, I did not yet have the time to apply the suggested
changes, but ThomasP took care of it now.

Thanks!

You're welcome. Thanks for your patience!

There were some additional suggestions/questions from Arnout on PATCH
4/5. I replied to some of them, but there are still a few
questions/suggestions left.
