The naming of variables is very inconsistent. I tried to use more
modern style naming (UNDERSCORED_TITLE_CASE), but I didn't change existing
names too much. Only SYSTEM_DATA_UNIT_PATH is renamed to SYSTEM_DATA_UNIT_DIR
to match SYSTEM_CONFIG_UNIT_DIR.
I want to stop using 'substs'. But in this case, configure_file() is nicer
than custom_target(), because it causes meson to immediately generate the
helpers after configuration, so it's possible to do
'meson build && build/man/man ...', without building anything first.
We only substitute one variable here, so let's use a custom configuration_data()
object.
m4 was hugely popular in the past, because autotools, automake, flex, bison and
many other things used it. But nowadays it much less popular, and might not even
be installed in the buildroot. (m4 is small, so it doesn't make a big difference.)
(FWIW, Fedora dropped make from the buildroot now,
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Remove_make_from_BuildRoot. I think it's
reasonable to assume that m4 will be dropped at some point too.)
The main reason to drop m4 is that the syntax is not very nice, and we should
minimize the number of different syntaxes that we use. We still have two
(configure_file() with @FOO@ and jinja2 templates with {{foo}} and the
pythonesque conditional expressions), but at least we don't need m4 (with
m4_dnl and `quotes').
HAVE_SMACK_RUN_LABEL was dropped back in 348b44372f,
so one line in etc.conf was not rendered as expected ;(
Checking if names are defined is paying for itself!
We don't need two (and half) templating systems anymore, yay!
I'm keeping the changes minimal, to make the diff manageable. Some enhancements
due to a better templating system might be possible in the future.
For handling of '## ' — see the next commit.
m4 was nice in '85, but the syntax feels a bit dated. Since we use python for
meson, let's use a popular python templating engine to replace some m4 usage.
A little nicety is that typos are caught:

Old meson fails with:
Element not a string: [<Holder: <ExternalProgram 'sh' -> ['/bin/sh']>>, '-c', 'test -n "$DESTDIR" || /bin/journalctl --update-catalog']
I'm doing it as a revert so that it's easy to undo the revert when we require
newer meson. The effect is not so bad, maybe a dozen or so lines about finding
'sh'.

Let's suffer one message only for each command. Hopefully we can silence
even this when https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/8642 is
resolved.

if you don't know about the github webflow key fails to configure with

[1065/1670] Linking target systemd-hwdb
--- command ---

--- stdout ---
./systemd-hwdb does not exist, please build first
I'm not sure what is going on here… In principle meson says that tests may be
called from any directory, but in practice is was always the build directory.
So far we were relying on systemd-hwdb being present in '.', and this worked.
Either way, it's nicer to pass the exact path, so let's do that.
* Add `bpf-framework` feature gate with 'auto', 'true' and 'false' choices
* Add libbpf [0] dependency
* Search for clang llvm-strip and bpftool binaries in compile time to
generate bpf skeleton.
For libbpf [0], make 0.2.0 [1] the minimum required version.
If libbpf is satisfied, set HAVE_LIBBPF config option to 1.
If `bpf-framework` feature gate is set to 'auto', means that whether
bpf feature is enabled or now is defined by the presence of all of
libbpf, clang, llvm and bpftool in build
environment.
With 'auto' all dependencies are optional.
If the gate is set to `true`, make all of the libbpf, clang and llvm
dependencies mandatory.
If it's set to `false`, set `BPF_FRAMEWORK` to false and make libbpf
dependency optional.
libbpf dependency is dynamic followed by the common pattern in systemd.
meson, bpf: add build rule for socket_bind program
Try to make this more manageable by reording:
- dependencies / inputs
(with subcategory of compression libraries)
- major components / outputs
- optional features / conditionals that don't fit into the two above categories
The division isn't well defined, because libraries often correspond one-to-one
to feature, but not always.
Let's assert if we ever happen to pass 0 to one of the log functions.
With the preceding commit to return -EIO from log_*(), passing 0 wouldn't
affect the return value any more, but it is still most likely an error.
The unit test code is an exception: we fairly often pass the return value
to print it, before checking what it is. So let's assert that we're not
passing 0 in non-test code. As with the previous check for %m, this is only
done in developer mode. We are depending on external code setting
errno correctly for us, which might not always be true, and which we can't
test, so we shouldn't assert, but just handle this gracefully.
I did a bunch of greps to try to figure out if there are any places where
we're passing 0 on purpose, and couldn't find any.
The one place that failed in tests is adjusted.
About "zerook" in the name: I wanted the suffix to be unambiguous. It's a
single "word" because each of the words in log_full_errno is also meaningful,
and having one term use two words would be confusing.
Using a enum is all nice and generic, but at this point it seems unlikely that
we'll add further build modes. But having an enum means that we need to include
the header file with the enumeration whenerever the conditional is used. I want
to use the conditional in log.h, which makes it hard to avoid circular imports.
We intentionally do not inline initializations with definitions for
a bunch of _cleanup_ variables in tests, to ensure valgrind is triggered.
This triggers a lot of maybe-uninitialized false positives when -O2 and
-flto are used. Suppress them.
The warning was disabled in 8794164fed to avoid
false positives. But it is useful in finding errors, even if it sometimes
results in untrue warnings (c.f. 77fac974fe, da46a1bc3c).
After #19168, #19169, and #19175, there are no warnings with
-Dbuildtype=debug-optimized/-O2 and gcc-11.0.1-0.3.fc34.x86_64. Warnings
are reenabled for -O[23]
-O0 is good for development, and -O2 is the default optimization level for
Fedora package builds. -Os, -O3, -O1, and -Og still generate some warnings. In
fact, with -Os the number of warnings seems completely hopeless. Dozens and
dozens.
With 8f20232fcb systemd-localed supports
generating locales when required. This fails if the locale directory is
read-only, so make it writable.
Closes#19138
sd-boot has a copy of a subset of codes from libbasic. This makes
sd-boot share the code with libbasic, and dedup the code.
Note, startswith_no_case() is dropped from sd-boot, as
- it is not used,
- the previous implementation is not correct,
- gnu-efi does not have StrniCmp() or so.
There is no technical reason to support systems with split-usr, except for
backwards compatibility. Even though systemd itself makes an effort to support
this, many other tools aren't as careful. Despite those efforts, we
(collectively) get it wrong often, because doing it "wrong" on systems with
merged-usr has no consequences. Since almost all developers are on such
systems, any issues are only discovered late. Supporting this split-usr mode
makes both code and documentation more complicated. The split is purely
artificial and has no justification except to allow old installation to not
update. Mechanisms to update existing systems are available though: Fedora
did that in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/UsrMove, Debian has
the usrmerge package.
The next version of Debian will only support systems with split-usr=false,
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=978636#178:
The Technical Committee resolves that Debian 'bookworm' should
support only the merged-usr root filesystem layout, dropping support
for the non-merged-usr layout.
Let's start warning if split-usr mode is used, in preparation to removing the
split in one of the future releases.
The target is update-syscall-tables, so let's call the script
update-syscall-tables.sh to reduce the cognitive overhead when
trying to find the right file.
The script is renamed to match.
Now all targets are named uniformly in a tab-completion-friendly fashion, with
the exception of systemd-update-po which is generated by the i18n module
automatically:
$ ninja -C build -t targets | grep update
systemd-update-po: phony
update-syscall-tables: phony
update-syscall-header: phony
update-hwdb: phony
update-hwdb-autosuspend: phony
update-dbus-docs: CUSTOM_COMMAND
update-man-rules: CUSTOM_COMMAND
