Now that we have a mechanism for defining file-based metadata, let's add
a mach command to interface with it.
Currently, we limit ourselves to simple Bugzilla data dumping. Features
will be added over time.
The Files sub-context allows us to attach metadata to files based on
pattern matching rules.
Patterns are matched against files in a last-write-wins fashion.
The sub-context defines the BUG_COMPONENT variable, which is a 2-tuple
(actually a named tuple) defining the Bugzilla product and component for
files. There are no consumers yet. But an eventual use case will be to
suggest a bug component for a patch/commit. Another will be to
automatically suggest a bug component for a failing test.
We want the ability to read data from any moz.build file without needing
a full build configuration (running configure). This will enable tools
to consume metadata by merely having a copy of the source code and
nothing more.
This commit creates the EmptyConfig object. It is a config object that -
as its name implies - is empty. It will be used for reading moz.build
files in "no config" mode.
Many moz.build files make assumptions that variables in CONFIG are
defined and that they are strings. We create the EmptyValue type that
behaves like an empty unicode string. Since moz.build files also do some
type checking, we carve an exemption for EmptyValue, just like we do for
None.
We add a test to verify that reading moz.build files in "no config" mode
works. This required some minor changes to existing moz.build files to
make them work in the new execution mode.
Building on top of the API to retrieve relevant moz.build files for a
given path, we introduce a moz.build reading API that reads all
moz.build files relevant to a given set of paths. We plan to use this
new API to read metadata from moz.build files relevant to a set of
files.
This patch changes the generator behavior of read_mozbuild to emit the
main context before any processing occurs. This allows downstream
consumers to manipulate state of the context before things like
directory processing occurs. We utilize this capability in the new
reading API to forcefully declare the directory traversal order for
processed moz.build files, overriding DIRS and similar variables.
Since variable exporting doesn't work reliably in this new traversal
mode, variable exporting no-ops when this mode is activated.
Currently, MozSandbox assumes that the FUNCTIONS, SPECIAL_VARIABLES, and
SUBCONTEXTS data structures are the instances that should be associated
with the sandbox. As we introduce new moz.build processing modes that
wish to change processing behavior, it is necessary for them to have
control over these special symbols.
This patch moves the declaration of these types to the special metadata
dictionary which is inherited during recursion. The "read_topsrcdir" API
now explicitly passes the initial metadata into "read_mozbuild".
We have an eventual goal to store file-level metadata in moz.build files
and to have this metadata "cascade" down directory hierarchies. e.g.
metadata in the root directory will apply to all children directories.
A prerequisite for this feature is a way to query which moz.build files
are relevant to a given file. In this patch, we implement an API that
returns this information.
The inputs to scripts for GENERATED_FILES are restricted to filenames
only. We have several examples in the tree, however, where a script
takes non-filename arguments. For converting those cases to use
GENERATED_FILES, we first need to provide some way of "injecting"
non-filename arguments into the script.
This commit adds a method for doing that, by extending the .script flag
on GENERATED_FILES to include an optional method name:
f = GENERATED_FILES['foo']
f.script = 'script.py:make_foo'
will invoke the make_foo function found in script.py instead of the
function named main.

As content in moz.build files has grown, it has become clear that
storing everything in one global namespace (the "context") per moz.build
file will not scale. This approach (which is carried over from
Makefile.in patterns) limits our ability to do things like declare
multiple instances of things (like libraries) per file.
A few months ago, templates were introduced to moz.build files. These
started the process of introducing separate contexts / containers in
each moz.build file. But it stopped short of actually emitting multiple
contexts per container. Instead, results were merged with the main
context.
This patch takes sub-contexts to the next level.
Introduced is the "SubContext" class. It is a Context derived from
another context. SubContexts are special in that they are context
managers. With the context manager is entered, the SubContext becomes
the main context associated with the executing sandbox, temporarily
masking the existence of the main context. This means that UPPERCASE
variable accesses and writes will be handled by the active SubContext.
This allows SubContext instances to define different sets of variables.
When a SubContext is spawned, it is attached to the sandbox executing
it. The moz.build reader will now emit not only the main context, but
also every SubContext that was derived from it.
To aid with the creation and declaration of sub-contexts, we introduce
the SUBCONTEXTS variable. This variable holds a list of classes that
define sub-contexts.
Sub-contexts behave a lot like templates. Their class names becomes the
symbol name in the sandbox.
The regular expression cache for mozpack.path.match was keyed off the
original pattern. However, that variable was mutated as part of the
function and the mutated result was subsequently stored as the cache
key. This effectively resulted in a 0% cache hit rate.
On some tests being written for bug 1132111 which involve a full
filesystem traversal for moz.build files and subsequent execution of
those files, the following timings are indicative of the impact of this
patch.
Before:
real 16.082s
user 14.760s
sys 1.318s
After:
real 6.345s
user 5.085s
sys 1.257s
Support for a callback to be executed post sandbox evaluation was added
in 24b43ecb4cad (bug 949906) to unbust Sphinx as a result of some GYP
processing changes. e93c40d4344f and bug 1071012 subsequently changed
how Sphinx variables are extracted from moz.build, removing the only
consumer of this feature.
Since there are no consumers of this feature left, remove it and make
the code simpler.
The value of cache files or cache size might decrease under these
circumstances.
* The user manually changes the max cache size to a value smaller than
the current cache size.
* The cache size is reaching the cache max size.
We should not assume both values will be increased after the build is
finished.
The Android ARchive contains the compiled Gecko libraries that Firefox
for Android interfaces to. It does not contain the Gecko resources
(the omnijar, omni.ja) nor the compiled Java code (classes.dex).
This also uploads metadata and sha1 hashes for future consumption by
Maven and/or Ivy dependency managers. In some brave future world,
we'll work out exactly what that looks like; for now, this solves a
storage problem (each .aar file is ~20MB) and it's possible to point
Gradle directly at the uploaded Ivy metadata and artifacts.

Previously, we raised errors attempting to register a mach sub-command
if the parent command was not defined on the Registrar. This broke B2G
because its mach command Registrar imposes restrictions on which
commands it exposes. Commands there were not getting registered on the
Registrar, leading mach to give a false positive that the parent command
was never defined.
We change the verification logic to take present but unregistered
commands into consideration and to skip registering sub-commands if the
parent isn't present in the Registrar.
Now that we have proper moz.build objects for GENERATED_FILES, we can
add 'script' flags and 'args' flags in moz.build for select
GENERATED_FILES. We restrict 'args' to being filenames for ease of
implementing checks for file existence, and many (all?) of the examples
of file generation throughout the tree don't need arbitrary strings or
Python data.
This patch is mostly useful for being able to see these changes
independently of the major changes to GENERATED_FILES. We are going to
need proper moz.build objects for GENERATED_FILES when we add the
ability to define scripts and arguments for them, so we might as well do
that first.
With the previous changes, we can now tell Visual Studio about the
actual unified files, rather than the files that are #include'd in them.
I believe this is much closer to what Visual Studio wants to see, and
enables things like Intellisense to work properly.
CommonBackend is where the writing of the unified files belong, since
that's an operation common to all backends. A special hook into
subclasses is used to enable subclass-specific processing of
UnifiedSources.
UnifiedSources will be processed outside of consume_object, so we need
some way of accessing the backend file for an object outside of
consume_object as well.
UnifiedSources, not the recursivemake backend, should be responsible for
figuring out what unified files to generate, and what those unified
files should contain.
Generating the list of idl deps to generate an xpt from its dependency list
makes us give all _previous_ dependencies, inherited from the .deps makefiles.
This leads to removed files being listed on xpidl-process.py command line, and
the command subsequently failing.
Instead, use generated lists of idl dependencies. At the same time, lighten the
generated Makefile further by not emitting xpt dependencies on their containing
directory, and instead generating it from the $xpt_files list.
This brings down the Makefile size from 100k to 38k.
