[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/4] add testing of libdpdk pkg-config file

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/4] add testing of libdpdk pkg-config file

[Bruce Richardson]

As part of the meson build, a pkg-config file for libdpdk is created, which
allows apps to be compiled and linked against DPDK by taking the cflags and
lib parameter from pkgconfig. The example app makefiles have been reworked
to take account of this support, but the build of them against the .pc file
was not regularly tested.

To rectify this, and give us greater confidence in the correctness of the
.pc file, this set adds in the sample apps to the installation set for
"ninja install" and then builds a subset of those apps against the
pkg-config file to test it. In the process a small error when compiling
the cmdline sample app using the .pc file was fixed.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/4] examples: install examples as part of ninja install

[Bruce Richardson]

When we install dpdk onto a system, we want to put the examples into
the /usr/share/dpdk (or /usr/local/share/dpdk) directory for reference.

Using find rather than shelling out to a one-liner script is easier to

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 3/4] devtools/test-meson-builds: add testing of pkg-config file

[Bruce Richardson]

The pkg-config file generated as part of the build of DPDK should allow
applications to be built with an installed DPDK. We can test this as
part of the build by doing an install of DPDK to a temporary directory
within the build folder, and by then compiling up a few sample apps
using make working off that directory.

What about just using meson's prefix option instead? Which is how it
would be used in a real use case

I don't think that would fully work, as my understanding is that the prefix
option would apply only to the /usr/local parts, but not to the kernel
modules which would still try and install in /lib/.

What about doing a meson configure -Denable_kmods=false before the
ninja install? The modules are not needed for that test anyway, right?
Alternatively, the kernel src dir could be symlinked in the build path,
and the kernel_dir option could be used

I'm just worried that the test should be as "realistic" as possible, to
avoid missing something

What about doing a meson configure -Denable_kmods=false before the
ninja install? The modules are not needed for that test anyway, right?
Alternatively, the kernel src dir could be symlinked in the build path,
and the kernel_dir option could be used

I'm just worried that the test should be as "realistic" as possible, to
avoid missing something

Yes, I did think of that too, but it does mean doing another configuration
run in meson, and possibly a rebuild too if the rte_build_config.h file
changes. Therefore I decided to use DESTDIR for the sake of speed here. I
assumed there would be a pkg-config variable to adjust the output paths
based on a sysroot, but couldn't find a suitable one.

In any case, I'll see about changing things as you suggest in V2 -
correctness is more important that speed here.

Any cmdline options to pkg-config don't solve the problem here as it means
that the makefiles for any app need to be modified to use all those.

Also, I've been looking at the option you suggest of disabling the kernel
modules for the install step - the problem that this brings is that it either:
* disables them permanently for the default build, meaning subsequent runs
  may fail to catch errors
* causes us to constantly reconfigure the build directory with/without
  the kmod setting, causing unnecessary work and slowdown in the script.

A third solution is to use a separate build folder for the pkg-config test
builds, but I think we have enough builds already in the setup without adding
another one.

All-in-all, I feel at this point that the original solution of making a small
change to the pkg-config file manually is the best solution for now. I don't
see it as being terribly fragile, and it should catch 95% of problems with
the pkg-config files. I suggest that any rework be looked at in a later set
to improve things.

Any cmdline options to pkg-config don't solve the problem here as it means
that the makefiles for any app need to be modified to use all those.

Also, I've been looking at the option you suggest of disabling the kernel
modules for the install step - the problem that this brings is that it either:
* disables them permanently for the default build, meaning subsequent runs
  may fail to catch errors
* causes us to constantly reconfigure the build directory with/without
  the kmod setting, causing unnecessary work and slowdown in the script.

A third solution is to use a separate build folder for the pkg-config test
builds, but I think we have enough builds already in the setup without adding
another one.

All-in-all, I feel at this point that the original solution of making a small
change to the pkg-config file manually is the best solution for now. I don't
see it as being terribly fragile, and it should catch 95% of problems with
the pkg-config files. I suggest that any rework be looked at in a later set
to improve things.

It looks to be a good solution.
Being able to update the DPDK install directory when building
an application should be a mandatory requirement.
I suggest to wrap the call to pkg-config so we can have this ability.

I would have expected that this issue has already been solved for
packagers. I was surprised that I couldn't find an easy way to do so.

Packagers use standard paths - so it never becomes a problem.

If editing the file on the fly is not acceptable for the test script,
then I'd suggest to fall back to the pkg-config option, and just
document the need to use it in the docs for this scenarios.

What I mean is that we should be able to compile our apps
after using DESTDIR, not related to the test script.
Can we use an environment variable like RTE_TARGET? DPDK_DIR?

We can certainly add one to our example Makefiles, it's just a couple of
lines change to each one to add a prefix to the return value from
pkg-config. I can attempt to do so in a later version of this patch, though
I'd prefer to take more time over it than we have in 19.05.

Alternatively, we can defer the last couple of patches in this set to
19.08, though again I'd prefer to have even this level of minimal testing
of pkg-config into 19.05.

Let me know what you think is best?

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 4/4] build: add libbsd to pkg-config file if enabled

[Bruce Richardson]

If libbsd is enabled in DPDK, the strlcpy and strlcat functions in
rte_string_fns.h redirect to the varients in libbsd, only using the
fallbacks if it is not enabled. Therefore, if libbsd is enabled, it needs
to be called out as a DPDK dependency in the pkgconfig file.

To ensure that we don't have undefined variables on non-Linux platforms, we
can remove the linux condition around the libbsd check - no harm comes in
looking for it on other OS, since it's an optional dependency.

To verify this builds correctly, the cmdline sample app is added to the
list of examples compiled by test-meson-builds. Without this change
compilation fails if libbsd is present on the system

My experiments with Ubuntu 18.04 showed the default version of meson
was too old (broken) and generated bad cflags.

Getting later one for Debian stable-backports worked.

Thanks for the info - it's things like that that this scripting is needed
to catch.

How old was the older version and what was the diff from it vs newer?
Personally, to update meson, I'd always just use pip to get the latest.

Thanks for the info - it's things like that that this scripting is needed
to catch.

How old was the older version and what was the diff from it vs newer?
Personally, to update meson, I'd always just use pip to get the latest.

And as further followup on the need for this, checking this patchset on
FreeBSD shows that the "ninja install" step is broken there due to "ln",
used by "symlink-drivers-solibs.sh" postinstall script, not supporting the
"-r" flag on FreeBSD. :-(

I'll try and do up a V2 set to include that fix also.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 0/6] add testing of libdpdk pkg-config file

[Bruce Richardson]

As part of the meson build, a pkg-config file for libdpdk is created, which
allows apps to be compiled and linked against DPDK by taking the cflags and
lib parameter from pkgconfig. The example app makefiles have been reworked
to take account of this support, but the build of them against the .pc file
was not regularly tested.

To rectify this, and give us greater confidence in the correctness of the
.pc file, this set adds in the sample apps to the installation set for
"ninja install" and then builds a subset of those apps against the
pkg-config file to test it. In the process a small error when compiling
the cmdline sample app using the .pc file was fixed.

V2: Fixed a number of other problems encountered on FreeBSD. Replaced
    patch 2 of the original set, which broke on BSD with patch 6 of this
    set, which is the more correct solution.

  examples/l3fwd: fix compile on freebsd

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 3/6] build: fix ninja install on FreeBSD

[Bruce Richardson]

The post-install script to symlink the PMDs from their own PMD directory to
the regular lib directory (so they would be found by ld at runtime) was
using the "-r" flag to ln to create relative symlinks. This flag is
unsupported by ln on FreeBSD causing the ninja install step to fail.

Reworking the script to take the relative driver path as parameter removes
the need for ln to calculate the relative path ensuring compatibility with
FreeBSD.

As part of the fix, we move the registration of the install script to the
config/meson.build file, from the top level one. This improves readability
as the script takes as parameters the variables set in that file.

Fixes: ed4d43d73e2b ("build: symlink drivers to library directory")

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 3/6] build: fix ninja install on FreeBSD

[Bruce Richardson]

The post-install script to symlink the PMDs from their own PMD directory to
the regular lib directory (so they would be found by ld at runtime) was
using the "-r" flag to ln to create relative symlinks. This flag is
unsupported by ln on FreeBSD causing the ninja install step to fail.

Reworking the script to take the relative driver path as parameter removes
the need for ln to calculate the relative path ensuring compatibility with
FreeBSD.

As part of the fix, we move the registration of the install script to the
config/meson.build file, from the top level one. This improves readability
as the script takes as parameters the variables set in that file.

Fixes: ed4d43d73e2b ("build: symlink drivers to library directory")

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 4/6] devtools/test-meson-builds: add testing of pkg-config file

[Bruce Richardson]

The pkg-config file generated as part of the build of DPDK should allow
applications to be built with an installed DPDK. We can test this as
part of the build by doing an install of DPDK to a temporary directory
within the build folder, and by then compiling up a few sample apps
using make working off that directory.

Hi,

I will probably have a ton of comments about adding a new compilation tests,
and I think it is a bit late for such an addition.
However, all the fixes should go in 19.05.

export DESTDIR=... is not supported everywhere?

Please see the email exchange between myself and Bruce on v1 3/4 - the
short version is that it can, but it gets messy due to the kernel
modules.

See previous discussion.
Short answer, yes we can, but the prefix does not apply to kernel modules
as they always install in /lib/modules folder.

Yes, it is. However, due to parallelism, sometimes there is an error
message printed out that scrolls off-screen as the other build processes
come to a halt. I felt it worthwhile to add this at the end to ensure it
was clear whether things succeeded or not. If you prefer, I can change it
to a print on failure?

It would be more reasonnable to leave it for 19.08

Failures are caught by 'set -e'.
Personnally I don't need such log because my shell prints me an error
when $? is not 0, but I can understand the need.
If you want to print $0, basename may render prettier.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 5/6] build: add libbsd to pkg-config file if enabled

[Bruce Richardson]

If libbsd is enabled in DPDK, the strlcpy and strlcat functions in
rte_string_fns.h redirect to the varients in libbsd, only using the
fallbacks if it is not enabled. Therefore, if libbsd is enabled, it needs
to be called out as a DPDK dependency in the pkgconfig file.

To ensure that we don't have undefined variables on non-Linux platforms, we
can remove the linux condition around the libbsd check - no harm comes in
looking for it on other OS, since it's an optional dependency.

To verify this builds correctly, the cmdline sample app is added to the
list of examples compiled by test-meson-builds. Without this change
compilation fails if libbsd is present on the system

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 6/6] examples: remove auto-generation of examples list

[Bruce Richardson]

The examples/meson.build file scanned the filesystem to find all examples
to build (for examples=all option) and install. However, using run_command
and scanning the filesystem prevented ninja from properly detecting the
addition or removal of any examples - one had to recreate the build
directory from scratch to guarantee correct detection of all examples. This
patch replaces this generated list with a static list of examples, thereby
allowing proper tracking by ninja/meson, but at the cost of having to
update this file when a new example is added or removed.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 0/4] file meson compilation and install issues

[Bruce Richardson]

Split off from the previous set to test the pkg-config file, this set
includes only the fixes encountered during that work.

V4: Removed the changes to the test script and to hard-code the list of
    example apps, so that only the more important patches are included.
V3: Minor style changes to patch 4 following review
V2: Fixed a number of other problems encountered on FreeBSD. Replaced
    patch 2 of the original set, which broke on BSD with patch 6 of this
    set, which is the more correct solution.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 2/4] examples: install examples as part of ninja install

[Bruce Richardson]

When we install dpdk onto a system, we want to put the examples into
the /usr/share/dpdk (or /usr/local/share) directory for reference.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 3/4] build: fix ninja install on FreeBSD

[Bruce Richardson]

The post-install script to symlink the PMDs from their own PMD directory to
the regular lib directory (so they would be found by ld at runtime) was
using the "-r" flag to ln to create relative symlinks. This flag is
unsupported by ln on FreeBSD causing the ninja install step to fail.

Reworking the script to take the relative driver path as parameter removes
the need for ln to calculate the relative path ensuring compatibility with
FreeBSD.

As part of the fix, we move the registration of the install script to the
config/meson.build file, from the top level one. This improves readability
as the script takes as parameters the variables set in that file.

Fixes: ed4d43d73e2b ("build: symlink drivers to library directory")

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 4/4] build: add libbsd to pkg-config file if enabled

[Bruce Richardson]

If libbsd is enabled in DPDK, the strlcpy and strlcat functions in
rte_string_fns.h redirect to the varients in libbsd, only using the
fallbacks if it is not enabled. Therefore, if libbsd is enabled, it needs
to be called out as a DPDK dependency in the pkgconfig file.

To ensure that we don't have undefined variables on non-Linux platforms, we
can remove the linux condition around the libbsd check - no harm comes in
looking for it on other OS, since it's an optional dependency.
