[PATCH v2 00/11] cmake: document, fix on *nix, add CI

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

 



This topig gets our tests from passing ~80% with ctest on *nix to
passing 100%. Now on top of next's js/cmake-updates. Comments inline
on patches:n

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason (11):
  cmake: don't "mkdir -p" and "cd" in build instructions
  cmake: update instructions for portable CMakeLists.txt

These are new, and document how to use cmake+ctest, and make the
instructions more OS-agnostic.

  cmake: don't copy chainlint.pl to build directory

Same, except to rebase on js/cmake-updates.

  cmake: chmod +x the bin-wrappers/* & SCRIPT_{SH,PERL} & git-p4

I tried to use the suggested "write_script" function, but couldn't get
past cmake quoting issues. So the commit message is updated, but the
change is the same.

  cmake & test-lib.sh: add a $GIT_SOURCE_DIR variable
  cmake: set "USE_LIBPCRE2" in "GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS" for test-lib.sh
  test-lib.sh: support a "GIT_TEST_BUILD_DIR"
  Makefile + cmake: use environment, not GIT-BUILD-DIR

Generalize the whole "test a build dir over there", and have cmake &
make not step on each other's toes.

  cmake: support GIT_TEST_OPTS, abstract away WIN32 defaults

The test param defaults in js/cmake-updates are kept on Windows, all
platforms benefit from having an easier way to provide custom test
options.

  cmake: copy over git-p4.py for t983[56] perforce test

Now at 101% tests passing :)

  CI: add a "linux-cmake-test" to run cmake & ctest on linux

See the CI (and topic itself) at https://github.com/avar/git/actions/runs/3333306724/jobs/5515607569

    -    of "--no-bin-wrappers".
    +    Since the cmake file was made to run on *nix in [1] running the tests
    +    with "ctest" broken, because we'd attempt to invoke our bin-wrappers/,
    +    but they didn't have the executable bit.

 3:  addaf73992f !  5:  6387682db06 cmake & test-lib.sh: add a $GIT_SOURCE_DIR variable
    @@ Commit message
         recipe has needed to copy various assets to that
         "contrib/buildsystems/out" directory.
     
    -    Let's instead teach the test-lib.sh that there's such a thing as the
    -    "$GIT_SOURCE_DIR" distinct from the "$GIT_BUILD_DIR".
    +    But we've only been doing this for the subsets of tests that run on
    +    Windows, and which have otherwise been covered by that CI target. The
    +    CI target builds (among other things) with "-DPERL_TESTS=OFF
    +    -DPYTHON_TESTS=OFF -DCURL_NO_CURL_CMAKE=ON", see [1]. Furthermore, the
    +    CI isn't testing from the "contrib/buildsystems/out" directory,
    +    instead it clobbers the top-level MAkefile.
    +
    +    There was a recent commit to fix a subset of these issues, see
    +    6a83b5f0810 (cmake: copy the merge tools for testing, 2022-10-18).
    +
    +    Let's stop going for that approach, and instead teach the test-lib.sh
    +    that there's such a thing as the "$GIT_SOURCE_DIR" distinct from the
    +    "$GIT_BUILD_DIR".
     
         Just as the "$TEST_DIRECTORY" always points to our actual "t"
         directory (not the "[...]/out/t" cmake creates), this new
         "$GIT_SOURCE_DIR" will always be the top-level source directory.
     
    -    So even though the "GIT_BUILD_DIR=(.*)" line in t/test-lib.sh will
    -    still be altered by CMakeLists.txt, that recipe will no longer need to
    -    copy over various things from our source directory, as the tests now
    -    know where to find those assets.
    +    With this change we now pass 3/5 of the tests that we still had
    +    failing with the fixes in the preceding commit.
