[PATCH/RFC 1/6] Makefile & compat/pcre2: add ability to build an embedded PCRE

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add a USE_LIBPCRE2_BUNDLED=YesIHaveNoPackagedVersion flag to the
Makefile which'll use the PCRE v2 shipped in compat/pcre2 instead of
trying to find it via -lpcre2-8 on the installed system.

As covered in a previous commits ("grep: add support for PCRE v2",
2017-04-08) there are major benefits to using a bleeding edge PCRE v2,
but more importantly I'd like to experiment with making PCRE a
mandatory dependency to power various internal features of grep/log
without the user being aware that they're using the library under the
hood, similar to how we use kwset now for fixed-string searches.

Imposing that hard dependency on everyone using git would bother a lot
of people, whereas if git itself ships PCRE it's no more bothersome
than the code using kwset, i.e. it can be invisible to the builder &
user, and allow git to target newer PCRE APIs without worrying about
versioning.

See [1] for a mostly one-sided pcre-dev mailing list thread discussing
how embed the library.

Implementation details:

 * I configured PCRE v2 with ./configure --enable-jit --enable-utf

 * It sets a lot of -DHAVE_* but these are used by the subset of the
   files I copied, many are either unused or only used by pcre2test.c
   which isn't brought in by the script.

 * These -DHAVE_* flags are something we have already by default &
   assume in other git.git code, so it should be fine to define it.

 * -DPCRE2_CODE_UNIT_WIDTH=8 only compiles the functions linking to
   -lpcre2-8 would have gotten us.

 * All the limits / sizes are the PCRE defaults, the
   MATCH_LIMIT_RECURSION define is a synonym for MATCH_LIMIT_DEPTH in
   older versions, it allows building against older (currently
   release) versions of the library.

 * -DNEWLINE_DEFAULT=2 means only \n is recognized as a newline. This
    corresponds to the --enable-newline-is-lf option. It's also
    possible to set this to CR, CRLF, any of CR, LF, or CRLF, or any
    Unicode newline character being recognized as \n.

    This *might* have to be customized on Windows, but I think the
    grep machinery always splits on newlines for us already, so this
    probably works on Windows as-is, but needs testing.
