Unfortunately, git submodules break in all sorts of ways:
- Various github workflows (dependabot, github pages) try to do a shallow
clone of git submodules which does not work at all when the git repository
is hosted on pagure (https://pagure.io/pagure/issue/5453,
https://github.com/dependabot/dependabot-core/issues/9391).
- If the git forge hosting the git repository uses SHA256, then it breaks our
usage of it as a submodule as SHA256 repositories cannot be used as submodules
in SHA1 repositories (src.opensuse.org moved to SHA256 which broke our usage of
opensuse's systemd spec as a submodule).
- git submodules completely break usage of git worktrees.
- ...
Let's avoid all these issues by just doing our own home grown implementation of
git submodules. We lose the automatic dependabot updates this way but since dependabot
fails to run more often that not with submodules we don't really lose anything.
git rebase does not support a --recurse-submodules switch to automatically
check out the submodules at their registered commits during or after a rebase.
Instead, let's use the post-rewrite git hook to do this ourselves.
Also, this drops Weblate (again) and dependabot from the contributers list.
Moreover, this makes the contributers sorted by git command, rather
than sort command. Then, the authors are sorted by their first name, e.g.
- before
Xiaotian Wu, Yuri Chornoivan, Yu Watanabe, Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek,
- after
Xiaotian Wu, Yu Watanabe, Yuri Chornoivan, Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek,

lld-18 does the section setup differently than older versions. There is a bunch
of ordering chagnes, but it also inserts the following:
Sections:
Idx Name Size VMA LMA File off Algn
...
9 .got 00000000 00000000000283c0 00000000000283c0 000283c0 2**3
CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, DATA
10 .relro_padding 00000c40 00000000000283c0 00000000000283c0 000283c0 2**0
ALLOC
11 .data 00000024 00000000000293c0 00000000000293c0 000283c0 2**4
CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, DATA
...
This causes a problem for us, because we try to map the .got to .rodata,
and the subsequent .data to .data, and round down the VMA to the nearest
page, which causes the PE sections to overlap.
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/66042 adds .relro_padding to make
sure that the RELRO segment is properly write protected and allocated. For our
binaries, the .got section is empty, so we can skip it safely, and the
.relro_padding section is not useful once .got has been dropped.
We don't expect .got sections, but they are apparently inserted on i386 and
aarch64 builds. Emit a warning until we figure out why they are there.
RuntimeError is documented as "Unspecified run-time error". It doesn't make
much sense for Python. (It originated in Java, where exceptions that can be
thrown by a function are declared in the function signature. All code calling
such a function must either explicitly catch all possible exception types, or
allow them to propagate by listing them in its own exception type list. This is
nice in theory, but in practice very annoying. Especially during development,
when the list of possible exception types is not finalized, we would end up
adding and removing exceptions to functions signatures all the time. Also for
code which is designed to call functions recursively, we would soon end up with
all functions declaring all possible exception types… To avoid this, people
would quite often do fake handling with a block that either prints and ignores
an exception, or has just a comment like "fix me later", or even nothing. This
often lead to people forgetting to adjust this later on and production code
containing such constructs. An escape hatch was opened with RuntimeException and
its subclasses, which do not need to be pre-declared. Various memory-related
exceptions were added as subclasses of RuntimeException. But later on, people
starting using this to not to have to declare all exception types everywhere.)
In Python, exceptions do no have to be pre-declared, and for code which just
encounters a failure, we should raise a specific exception type. The catch-all
class for unexpected input is ValueError.
For https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/31637:
BadSectionError: Section '.data' @0x28000 overlaps previous section @0x28000+0x300=@0x28300
Also, exception strings should not contain trailing periods, because they are
often embedded in sentences.
For tables which represent binary data structures, readability is greatly
enhanced if the part which shows field size and type is aligned. This follows
the usual style for tables in the rest of the systemd codebase.
Also, use the same style for functions: if the function signature is too long
to fit in one line, put each parameter on a separate line.
Also, for comprehension expressions, if they are split, use the usual Python
style.
Also, drop format annotations, since the code isn't automatically formatted
anymore, and automatic formatting is neither feasible nor a goal for the
systemd codebase.
version_h includes GIT_VERSION which only makes sense for C files
which aren't preprocessed by jinja2 so remove the argument.
The end result of this change is that the man pages are not recompiled
anymore every time GIT_VERSION changes.
Let's split off a new vcs-tag option from version-tag that configures whether
the current commit should be appended to the version tag. Doing this saves
us from having to fiddle around with generating git versions in packaging
specs and instead let's meson do it for us, even if we pass in a custom
version tag.
With this approach there's no more need for tools/meson-vcs-tag.sh so
we remove it.
This is inspired by one of our internal tests that does pretty much the
same thing. However, it is slightly more convoluted than I'd like it to
be, since I really don't want to duplicate the list of our units in
another place, so we need to, somehow, pass the list from the meson file
to the test script. I originally envisioned this to be a part of the
unit test suite, but this doesn't work for unit files with absolute
paths to binaries, as we'd have to install the build first (maybe using
a chroot would work?).
It doesn't check man pages (since they might not be installed on the
test machine) and also skip recursive dependencies (as that would trip
over issues in files that are not under our direct control), but it
should still cover typos and such.
There are currently two units for which the check had to be disabled -
syslog.socket, as the corresponding syslog.service might not be
installed, and rc-local.service as that's a compat API and the necessary
/etc/rc.d/rc.local file may not (and most likely won't be) present.
Let's make sure that versions generated by meson-vcs-tag.sh always
sort higher than official and stable releases. We achieve this by
immediately updating the meson version in meson.build after a new
release. To make sure this version always sorts lower than future
rcs, we suffix it with "~devel" which will sort lower than "~rcX".
The new release workflow is to update the version in meson.build
for each rc and the official release and to also update the version
number after a new release to the next development version.
The full version is exposed as PROJECT_VERSION_FULL and used where
it makes sense over PROJECT_VERSION.
We also switch to reading the version from a meson.version file in
the repo instead of hardcoding it in meson.build. This makes it
easier to access both inside and outside of the project.
The meson-vcs-tag.sh script is rewritten to query the version from
meson.version instead of passing it in via the command line. This
makes it easier to use outside of systemd since users don't have to
query the version themselves first.
tilde sorts lower in the version comparison spec:
https://uapi-group.org/specifications/specs/version_format_specification/
➜ systemd git:(strip) systemd-analyze compare-versions 249\~rc1 249
249\~rc1 < 249
➜ systemd git:(strip) systemd-analyze compare-versions 249-rc1 249
249-rc1 > 249
Also update tools/meson-vcs-tag.sh to use carets instead of hyphens
for the git part of the version as carets are allowed to be part of
a version by pacman while hyphens are not and both sort higher than
a version without the git part.
One of the three must always be specified, but they buried in a long list of
options in the output of --help. Make them more visible to draw the eye.
Also, drop "marked" from the description. It's supposed to mean "configured",
but it's a strange way to say that, and also it's generally obvious that the
program does what its configuration tells it to, and it's not going to remove
all files found on the system.
Since signals can take arguments, let's suffix them with () as we
already do with functions. To make sure we remain consistent, make the
`update-dbus-docs.py` script check & fix any occurrences where this is
not the case.
Resolves: #31002
bc6fdcbf5d switched its doctype to refentry, so the script started
picking it up and complaining that it's missing required stuff. Since
this file is only included from other man pages, let's skip it when
putting together a list of valid targets.
Resolves: #30715
Follow-up for: bc6fdcbf5d
meson's `cpp_args` option is defined only if it detects a C++ compiler,
otherwise we get an error:
../test/fuzz/meson.build:56:28: ERROR: Tried to access unknown option 'cpp_args'.
Prompted by #29972, because right now it's practically impossible to pass
-fno-sanitize=function to the fuzzer targets without some extensive
sed'ing.
This splits both c_args and cpp_args to separate arguments for
tools/meson-build.sh, because the other way would be to use `eval`, so
the space-separated but quoted strings passed to these options are not
split where they shouldn't, and I'd rather avoid using `eval` if
possible.
Also, this switches the positional arguments we pass to `meson setup`,
as they were in incorrect order (docs say it should be buildir followed
by sourcedir); meson is apparently clever enough to figure this out and
switch the arguments around if necessary, so it didn't complain.
When building with mkosi I would get the following:
[1/477] Generating version.h with a custom command
fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at '/work/src'
To add an exception for this directory, call:
git config --global --add safe.directory /work/src
and then the tag would be generated as 'v254-'. This is obviously some problem
with the setup, but we should handle this gracefully. Let's fall back to 'v254'
instead.
In the case where we have a repo but no tags, use --dirty=^ too, as in the case
with tags.
I tested four cases:
- normal checkout
- checkout with .git removed
- checkout with .git chowned to root
- checkout wiht all tags removed
This changes the doc-sync meson target from a simple rsync command to a
script that:
* puts the documentation in a subdirectory according to the version
* injects a bit of javascript to add a drop-down to switch between versions
* updates an index.json file with the newly uploaded version
* keeps the latest/ directory up to date with the latest version
* supports a --no-latest switch to be used when uploading older versions
This adds a new script tools/check-version-history.py and a corresponding
test when building in developer mode. It checks manpages (except dbus
documentation which is handled by update-dbus-docs) for missing version
history information.
It also adds ignore lists based on version 183 (the version that our version
annotations go back to). These can be augmented if we want to ignore other
elements if it doesn't make sense for them to have version annotations.
This makes the special PE sections available again in our output EFI
images.
Since the compiler provides no way to mark a section as not allocated,
we use GNU assembler syntax to emit the sections instead. This ensures
the section data isn't emitted twice as load segments will only contain
allocating input sections.
The main reason we need to apply a whole lot of logic to the section
conversion logic is because PE sections have to be aligned to the page
size (although, currently not even EDK2 enforces this). The process of
achieving this with a linker script is fraught with errors, they are a
pain to set up correctly and suck in general. They are also not
supported by mold, which requires us to forcibly use bfd, which also
means that linker feature detection is easily at odds as meson has a
differnt idea of what linker is in use.
Instead of forcing a manual ELF segment layout with a linker script we
just let the linker do its thing. We then simply copy/concatenate the
sections while observing proper page boundaries.
Note that we could just copy the ELF load *segments* directly and
achieve the same result. Doing this manually allows us to strip sections
we don't need at runtime like the dynamic linking information (the
elf2efi conversion is effectively the dynamic loader).
Important sections like .sbat that we emit directly from code will
currently *not* be exposed as individual PE sections as they are
contained within the ELF segments. A future commit will fix this.
