When MAKEFLAGS is set in a makefile, reparse it immediately rather
than waiting until after all makefiles have been read and parsed.
This change doesn't actually fix the SV bug referenced because, even
though we do reparse MAKEFLAGS, we don't handle the -r or -R options
immediately. Doing this will require more effort.
* NEWS: Announce the change.
* src/makeint.h: Publish reset_switches() and decode_env_switches()
from main.c
* src/main.c (main): Don't call construct_include_path(); it will be
invoked decode_switches().
Preserve the old values of builtin_rules, builtin_variables, and
job_slots before we read makefiles since they can be changed now.
(reset_switches): Publish (remove static). Set the initial value of
the stringlist list to NULL.
(decode_switches): Call construct_include_path() after decoding.
(decode_env_switches): Publish (remove static).
(define_makeflags): Set the MAKEFLAGS variable for special handling.
* src/read.c (eval_makefile): Check for empty include_directories.
(construct_include_path): Clear any old value of .INCLUDE_DIRS before
appending new values. Free the previous include_directories.
* src/variable.c (lookup_special_var): When MAKEFLAGS is set, first
reset the switches then re-parse the variable.
* tests/run_make_tests.pl: Memo-ize some default variable values.
* tests/scripts/options/dash-r: Create tests for setting -r and -R.
* tests/scripts/variables/MAKEFLAGS: Test that resetting -I from
within the makefile takes effect immediately.
Add debug options to print recipes even if they would otherwise be
silent, and to print the reason that a target was considered out of
date.
Modify --trace to simply be a shorthand for --debug=print,why.
* NEWS: Announce changes.
* doc/make.texi (Summary of Options): Document the new options.
* doc/make.1: Ditto.
* src/debug.h: Add new flags DB_PRINT and DB_WHY.
* src/makeint.h: Remove the trace_flag variable.
* src/job.c (start_job_command): Check debug flags not trace_flag.
(new_job): Ditto.
* src/main.c (trace_flag): Make a static variable for switches.
(decode_debug_flags): Set DB_PRINT and DB_WHY if trace_flag is set.
* tests/scripts/variables/GNUMAKEFLAGS: Update known-good messages.
* tests/scripts/variables/MAKEFLAGS: Ditto.
Previously if the jobserver was active, MAKEFLAGS would contain only
the -j option but not the number (not -j5 or whatever) so users
could not discover that value. Allow that value to be provided in
MAKEFLAGS without error but still give warnings if -jN is provided
on the command line if the jobserver is already activated.
* NEWS: Discuss the new behavior.
* os.h, posixos.c, w32/w32os.c: Return success/failure from
jobserver_setup() and jobserver_parse_auth().
* main.c (main): Separate the command line storage of job slots (now
in arg_job_slots) from the control storage (in job_slots). Make a
distinction between -jN flags read from MAKEFLAGS and those seen
on the command line: for the latter if the jobserver is enabled then
warn and disable it, as before.
* tests/scripts/features/jobserver: Add new testing.
Create a new file, output.c, and collect functions that generate output there.
We introduce a new global context specifying where output should go (to stdout
or to a sync file), and the lowest level output generator chooses where to
write output based on that context.
This allows us to set the context globally, and all operations that write
output (including functions like $(info ...) etc.) will use it.
Removed the "--trace=dir" capability. It was too confusing. If you have
directory tracking enabled then output sync will print the enter/leave message
for each synchronized block. If you don't want that, disable directory
tracking.
