This patch adds special handling for lib/<libname> arguments to the build system, which supersedes the former LIB=<libname> mechanism. Whereas the old mechanism was limited to a single library, the new convention allows multiple library arguments, similar to regular targets. The change brings the two immediate benefits. First, the streamlining of library and target arguments allows for the building of libraries via the 'build' command of the run tool. Second, it alleviates the need for pseudo target.mk files for building shared libraries that have no direct dependencies, in particular VFS plugins. Since this change eases the explicit creation of shared libraries from run scripts, we may reconsider the automatic implicit building of shared libraries driven by targets. E.g., while developing a Qt application, a run script could import the Qt libraries from the depot and combine those with the developed (fresh built) target without triggering the build of the Qt libraries in the build directory. When issueing 'make' without arguments, all targets are built. This patch applies this behavior to libraries as well, thereby removing the need for the base/src/lib/target.mk pseudo target as used by the CI tools to build all libraries. Note that target.mk files located under src/lib/ are no longer reachable. Therefore, all run scripts that used to trigger the build of a shared library via a pseudo target must be adapted. E.g., 'build lib/vfs/tap' must be replaced by 'build lib/vfs_tap'. With this patch, the LIB=<libname> option is no longer supported. Fixes #4599 |

This directory contains tools for managing and using the source code of Genode. :'create_builddir' The 'create_builddir' tool provides a convenient way to create build directories for different platforms. Its usage information is printed when starting the tool without arguments. :'builddir/': This directory contains a Makefile template and configuration snippets used by the 'create_builddir' tool. :'tool_chain': This tool downloads, builds, and installs the tool chain needed to build the Genode OS Framework. For getting usage information, start the tool without arguments. :'create_iso': This simple tool helps to build bootable ISO images from your build of Genode. For getting usage information, start the tool without arguments. :'create_grub2': This tool prepares a partitioned disk image with GRUB2 as boot loader. :'grub2-head.img': This file is the head part of a partioned disk image including an installation of GRUB2 as boot loader. GRUB2 is available from http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/ and in major Linux distributions. Steps to reproduce the image creation can be found in 'create_grub2'. :'beautify': Beautify is a coding-style checking tool that analyzes source code for its adherence to Genode's coding style as described in 'doc/coding_style.txt'. Whenever possible, the tool tries to fix the issues and outputs a corrected file. Some corrections, however, require human interaction. In this case, the tool stops the analysis with an error. :'parse_cxx': This tool is a C++ parser used as front-end for Beautify. :'cxx_to_html': This tool converts a C++ source file to a HTML view to be used for the API documentation at the genode.org website. It relies on 'parse_cxx' to do the actual C++ parsing. :'fix_include_ifndef': This tool helps with assigning consistent include guards to header files. :'boot': This directory contains boot-loader files needed to create boot images. :'autopilot': Autopilot is a tool for the automatic execution of run scripts among multiple base platforms. :'abi_symbols': The utility assists with the initial creation of a ABI-symbols file, taking a shared object as a starting point. For more information, refer to the header of the 'abi_symbols' script. :'check_abi': The 'check_abi' helper is used by the build system to detect violations of an ABI by a shared library. Most importantly, it reports incompatibilities of symbol sizes, which require an adaptation of the ABI. For more information, refer to the header of the 'check_abi' script.
