[PATCH v6 1/3] check-uapi: Introduce check-uapi.sh

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

 



While the kernel community has been good at maintaining backwards
compatibility with kernel UAPIs, it would be helpful to have a tool
to check if a commit introduces changes that break backwards
compatibility.

To that end, introduce check-uapi.sh: a simple shell script that
checks for changes to UAPI headers using libabigail.

libabigail is "a framework which aims at helping developers and
software distributors to spot some ABI-related issues like interface
incompatibility in ELF shared libraries by performing a static
analysis of the ELF binaries at hand."

The script uses one of libabigail's tools, "abidiff", to compile the
changed header before and after the commit to detect any changes.

abidiff "compares the ABI of two shared libraries in ELF format. It
emits a meaningful report describing the differences between the two
ABIs."

The script also includes the ability to check the compatibility of
all UAPI headers across commits. This allows developers to inspect
the stability of the UAPIs over time.

    - Add abidiff suppressions to filter out common things like enum
      variants named .*_MAX being changed and expansion into padding
      fields.
    - Bump minimum abidiff version to 2.4 to accomodate new
      suppressions.
    - Add option (-i) to suppress ambiguous breaking changes.
    - Remove printing of full file diffs when ABI breakage is found
      as this was too noisy.
    - Wait for all files to be checked before printing results as
      printing from parallel threads was garbling output.
    - Suppress all output when -q is passed.
    - Avoid messing up user's git tree by using "git archive" instead
      of checking out references.

+$name - check for UAPI header stability across Git commits
+
+By default, the script will check to make sure the latest commit (or current
+dirty changes) did not introduce ABI changes when compared to HEAD^1. You can
+check against additional commit ranges with the -b and -p options.
+
+The script will not check UAPI headers for architectures other than the one
+defined in ARCH.
+
+Usage: $name [-b BASE_REF] [-p PAST_REF] [-j N] [-l ERROR_LOG] [-i] [-q] [-v]
+
+Options:
+    -b BASE_REF    Base git reference to use for comparison. If unspecified or empty,
+                   will use any dirty changes in tree to UAPI files. If there are no
+                   dirty changes, HEAD will be used.
+    -p PAST_REF    Compare BASE_REF to PAST_REF (e.g. -p v6.1). If unspecified or empty,
+                   will use BASE_REF^1. Must be an ancestor of BASE_REF. Only headers
+                   that exist on PAST_REF will be checked for compatibility.
+    -j JOBS        Number of checks to run in parallel (default: number of CPU cores).
+    -l ERROR_LOG   Write error log to file (default: no error log is generated).
+    -i             Ignore ambiguous changes that may or may not break UAPI compatibility.
+    -q             Quiet operation.
+    -v             Verbose operation (print more information about each header being checked).
+
+Environmental args:
+    ABIDIFF  Custom path to abidiff binary
+    CC       C compiler (default is "gcc")
+    ARCH     Target architecture of C compiler (default is host arch)
+
+Exit codes:
+    $SUCCESS) Success
+    $FAIL_ABI) ABI difference detected
+    $FAIL_PREREQ) Prerequisite not met
