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. In the best case, the "t/test-lib.sh" would be unable to find "bin-wrappers/git", and we'd fall back on "GIT_EXEC_PATH=$GIT_BUILD_DIR" using the fallback behavior added in [2]: $ ./t0001-init.sh <GIT_BUILD_DIR>/t/../contrib/buildsystems/out/bin-wrappers/git is not executable; using GIT_EXEC_PATH This was recently somewhat swept under the rug in [3], as ctest would run them with "--no-bin-wrappers". But still with [3], running e.g.: cmake -S contrib/buildsystems -B contrib/buildsystems/out -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug && make -C contrib/buildsystems/out && ctest --test-dir contrib/buildsystems/out --jobs="$(nproc)" --output-on-failure Fails around 20% of our tests on *nix. So even with [3] we'd fail any test that needed to invoke one of our built shell, perl or Python scripts on *nix. E.g. t0012-help.sh would fail on a test that tried to invoke "git web--browse". The equivalent of this (in the "out" directory) would happen: $ ./git --exec-path=$PWD web--browse git: 'web--browse' is not a git command. See 'git --help'. Which we can fix by "chmod +x"-ing the built "git-web--browse": $ chmod +x git-web--browse $ ./git --exec-path=$PWD web--browse usage: git web--browse [--browser=browser|--tool=browser] [--config=conf.var] url/file ... The same goes for e.g. the "git-p4" tests, which would fail because our built "git-p4" wasn't executable, etc. There's also a few other outstanding issues, which will be fixed in subsequent commits. Ideally we'd use the file(CHMOD ...) form everywhere, but that syntax was introduced in cmake 3.19[4], whereas we only require 3.14. Let's provide a fallback behind a version check, so that we'll eventually be able to delete the "else" part. Both forms result in the same file modes. Before this change: 80% tests passed, 196 tests failed out of 977 After: 99% tests passed, 5 tests failed out of 977 The remaining failures will be addressed in subsequent commits. As this isn't needed on Windows let's skip this there. There's also an unconfirmed (it works in CI) report[5] that invoking the "chmod" command fails in some scenarios. 1. f31b6244950 (Merge branch 'yw/cmake-updates', 2022-06-07) 2. e4597aae659 (run test suite without dashed git-commands in PATH, 2009-12-02) 3. 2ea1d8b5563 (cmake: make it easier to diagnose regressions in CTest runs, 2022-10-18) 4. https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/file.html#chmod 5. https://lore.kernel.org/git/87f22a55-ee84-2f76-7b9b-924a97f44f89@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/ Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@xxxxxxxxx> write script --- contrib/buildsystems/CMakeLists.txt | 27 +++++++++++++++++++++------ 1 file changed, 21 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/contrib/buildsystems/CMakeLists.txt b/contrib/buildsystems/CMakeLists.txt index c641e9349c9..7a2c3681e0d 100644 --- a/contrib/buildsystems/CMakeLists.txt +++ b/contrib/buildsystems/CMakeLists.txt @@ -840,6 +840,21 @@ add_custom_command(OUTPUT ${git_links} ${git_http_links} DEPENDS git git-remote-http) add_custom_target(git-links ALL DEPENDS ${git_links} ${git_http_links}) +function(write_script path content) + file(WRITE ${path} ${content}) + + if(WIN32) + message(TRACE "skipping chmod +x '${path}' on Windows") + elseif("${CMAKE_MAJOR_VERSION}.${CMAKE_MINOR_VERSION}" VERSION_GREATER_EQUAL "3.19") + file(CHMOD ${path} FILE_PERMISSIONS OWNER_READ OWNER_WRITE OWNER_EXECUTE) + else() + execute_process(COMMAND chmod +x ${path} + RESULT_VARIABLE CHILD_ERROR) + if(CHILD_ERROR) + message(FATAL_ERROR "failed to chmod +x '${path}': '${CHILD_ERROR}'") + endif() + endif() +endfunction() #creating required scripts set(SHELL_PATH /bin/sh) @@ -865,7 +880,7 @@ foreach(script ${git_shell_scripts}) string(REPLACE "# @@BROKEN_PATH_FIX@@" "" content "${content}") string(REPLACE "@@PERL@@" "${PERL_PATH}" content "${content}") string(REPLACE "@@PAGER_ENV@@" "LESS=FRX LV=-c" content "${content}") - file(WRITE ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/${script} ${content}) + write_script(${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/${script} "${content}") endforeach() #perl scripts @@ -880,13 +895,13 @@ foreach(script ${git_perl_scripts}) file(STRINGS ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/${script}.perl content NEWLINE_CONSUME) string(REPLACE "#!/usr/bin/perl" "#!/usr/bin/perl\n${perl_header}\n" content "${content}") string(REPLACE "@@GIT_VERSION@@" "${PROJECT_VERSION}" content "${content}") - file(WRITE ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/${script} ${content}) + write_script(${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/${script} "${content}") endforeach() #python script file(STRINGS ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/git-p4.py content NEWLINE_CONSUME) string(REPLACE "#!/usr/bin/env python" "#!/usr/bin/python" content "${content}") -file(WRITE ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/git-p4 ${content}) +write_script(${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/git-p4 "${content}") #perl modules file(GLOB_RECURSE perl_modules "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/perl/*.pm") @@ -1024,20 +1039,20 @@ foreach(script ${wrapper_scripts}) file(STRINGS ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/wrap-for-bin.sh content NEWLINE_CONSUME) string(REPLACE "@@BUILD_DIR@@" "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}" content "${content}") string(REPLACE "@@PROG@@" "${script}${EXE_EXTENSION}" content "${content}") - file(WRITE ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin-wrappers/${script} ${content}) + write_script(${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin-wrappers/${script} "${content}") endforeach() foreach(script ${wrapper_test_scripts}) file(STRINGS ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/wrap-for-bin.sh content NEWLINE_CONSUME) string(REPLACE "@@BUILD_DIR@@" "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}" content "${content}") string(REPLACE "@@PROG@@" "t/helper/${script}${EXE_EXTENSION}" content "${content}") - file(WRITE ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin-wrappers/${script} ${content}) + write_script(${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin-wrappers/${script} "${content}") endforeach() file(STRINGS ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/wrap-for-bin.sh content NEWLINE_CONSUME) string(REPLACE "@@BUILD_DIR@@" "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}" content "${content}") string(REPLACE "@@PROG@@" "git-cvsserver" content "${content}") -file(WRITE ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin-wrappers/git-cvsserver ${content}) +write_script(${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin-wrappers/git-cvsserver "${content}") #options for configuring test options option(PERL_TESTS "Perform tests that use perl" ON) -- 2.39.0.rc1.1006.gb4c675778ba
