POSIX does not guarantee that writes will be atomic if a file is
opened for normal (non-append) output. That means if multiple processes
are writing to the same file, output could be lost. I can't think of
a real use-case where we would NOT want append for stdout/stderr, so
force it if we can.
main.c (find_and_set_default_shell): Don't use file_exists_p or
dir_file_exists_p, as those call readdir, which can fail if PATH
includes directories with non-ASCII characters, and that would
cause Make to fail at startup with confusing diagnostics. See
https://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=30846737
for the details.
In various places we were passing flags and characters to compare, then
using complex conditionals to see where to stop in string searches.
Performance numbers reveal that we were spending as much as 23% of our
processing time in these functions, most of it in the comparison lines.
Instead create a character map and use a single bitwise comparison to
determine if this is any one of the stop characters.
Ensure all simple flags are kept in the initial batch of flags.
Do not allow any flags with options in that batch.
If there are only non-simple flags ensure MAKEFLAGS begins with " ".
Don't let MFLAGS start with "- ".
If -R is set in the makefile and not the command line, then go through all the
default variables and undefine them. If -r is set in the makefile and not in
the command line, then remove all .SUFFIX prefixes (unless the user set it)
and SUFFIX variable setting. In -p mode don't print builtins.
This allows you to write portable makefiles that set GNU make-specific command
line options in the environment or makefile: add them to GNUMAKEFLAGS instead
of MAKEFLAGS and they will be seen by GNU make but ignored by other
implementations of make.
This mode replaces the previous heuristic setting enabled with -O, where we
would log directory enter/leave for each synchronized output. Now we only
do that if --trace=dir is given.
A new flag to the -O/--output-sync, "job", selects a per-job (that is, per
line of a recipe) output synchronization. To support this move the close of
the temp file out of the sync_output() function and don't do it until we free
the child, since we may call sync_output() multiple times in a given recipe.
When we set up for a new temp file, if we're in per-job mode we truncate the
file and seek to the beginning to re-use it for every job.
w32/compat/posixfcn.c: New file, with emulations of Posix
functions and Posix functionality for MS-Windows.
w32/subproc/sub_proc.c: Include io.h.
(process_noinherit): New function, forces a file descriptor to not
be inherited by child processes.
(process_easy): Accept two additional arguments, and use them to
set up the standard output and standard error handles of the child
process.
w32/include/sub_proc.h (process_easy): Adjust prototype.
(process_noinherit): Add prototype.
read.c [WINDOWS32]: Include windows.h and sub_proc.h.
makeint.h (LOCALEDIR) [WINDOWS32}: Define to NULL if not
defined. This is needed because the MS-Windows build doesn't have
a canonical place for LOCALEDIR.
(WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN) [WINDOWS32]: Define, to avoid getting from
windows.h header too much stuff that could conflict with the code.
main.c <sync_mutex>: New static variable.
<switches>: Add support for "--sync-mutex" switch.
(decode_output_sync_flags): Decode the --sync-mutex= switch.
(prepare_mutex_handle_string) [WINDOWS32]: New function.
(main): Add "output-sync" to .FEATURES.
job.h (CLOSE_ON_EXEC) [WINDOWS32]: Define to call
process_noinherit.
(F_GETFD, F_SETLKW, F_WRLCK, F_UNLCK, struct flock) [WINDOWS32]:
New macros.
(RECORD_SYNC_MUTEX): New macro, a no-op for Posix platforms.
(sync_handle_t): New typedef.
job.c <sync_handle>: Change type to sync_handle_t.
(FD_NOT_EMPTY): Seek to the file's end. Suggested by Frank
Heckenbach <f.heckenbach@fh-soft.de>.
(pump_from_tmp_fd) [WINDOWS32]: Switch to_fd to binary mode for
the duration of this function, and then change back before
returning.
(start_job_command) [WINDOWS32]: Support output_sync mode on
MS-Windows. Use a system-wide mutex instead of locking
stdout/stderr. Call process_easy with two additional arguments:
child->outfd and child->errfd.
(exec_command) [WINDOWS32]: Pass two additional arguments, both
-1, to process_easy, to adjust for the changed function signature.
function.c (windows32_openpipe) [WINDOWS32]: This function now
returns an int, which is -1 if it fails and zero otherwise. It
also calls 'error' instead of 'fatal', to avoid exiting
prematurely.
(func_shell_base) [WINDOWS32]: Call perror_with_name if
windows32_openpipe fails, now that it always returns. This avoids
a compiler warning that error_prefix is not used in the MS-Windows
build.
config.h.W32.template (OUTPUT_SYNC): Define.
build_w32.bat: Add w32/compat/posixfcn.c to compilation and
linking commands.
From Frank Heckenbach <f.heckenbach@fh-soft.de>:
job.c (sync_output): Don't discard the output if
acquire_semaphore fails; instead, dump the output unsynchronized.
Provide a simple API for loaded objects to interact with GNU make. I still
won't guarantee that this API won't change but it's much closer to something
that's supported and provides easy-to-use interfaces with a public header
file.
On configure-enabled systems, configure will detect Guile installed
(using pkg-config, which is how GNU Guile is distributed) and enable
it if so.
On all non-configure-enabled systems, currently, the default is for
Guile support to be disabled.
(exec_command) [WINDOWS32]: Use pid2str instead of non-portable
%Id.
main.c (handle_runtime_exceptions): Use %p to print addresses,
to DTRT on both 32-bit and 64-bit hosts. Savannah bug #27809.
job.c (w32_kill, start_job_command, create_batch_file): Use
pid_t for process IDs and intptr_t for the 1st arg of
_open_osfhandle.
function.c (windows32_openpipe): Use pid_t for process IDs and
intptr_t for the 1st arg of _open_osfhandle.
(func_shell): Use pid_t for process IDs.
main.c (main) [WINDOWS32]: Pacify the compiler.
config.h.W32.template (pid_t): Add a definition for 64-bit
Windows builds that don't use GCC.
Savannah bug #27809. Patch by Ozkan Sezer <sezeroz@gmail.com>
backward-incompatible change in the 2008 POSIX specification.
- Add the .SHELLFLAGS variable so people can choose their own shell flags.
- Add tests for this.
- Add documentation for this.
