From: Adam Duskett <Aduskett@gmail.com>

Included in version 14 of the gobject-introspection patch series.
The patch series is almost identical with V13 except for one 
significant change:

With permission from Arnout I have included the patch:
package/pkg-meson.mk: set Python sysconfigdata
However; the patch has one big flaw I would like to discuss:

The patch breaks libglib2 if a target-python is not selected or is not yet
built and installed before building target libglib2. Indeed, it would be
because we would pass _PYTHON_SYSCONFIGDATA_NAME="" as an environment
variable, which leads to the following error during libglib2-configure:
meson.build:1978:0: ERROR: <ExternalProgram 'python3' -> ['output/host/bin/python3']> is not a valid python or it is missing setuptools

However, I do believe the patch is a better direction to go than the previous
patch: package/meson: prevent python include path manipulation for two
significant reasons:

1) Meson does not have to be patched.
2) It fixes the suffix of built python applications that use meson
   (such as newer versions of python-gobject.) With the old patch, the suffix
   of the python libraries is -x86-64 even though the binaries themselves would
   be the target architecture, which causes import errors on the target. With
   this patch, the suffix is correct.
   
I propose keeping the patch but modifying it to work correctly if the
target-python isn't selected or isn't yet built. I need help however with this
as I am not great with makefile syntax this complex.

Thanks!

Adam

Some packages, like prelink-cross, will want to use libiberty but do
not bundle their own instance (which is good!).

However, libiberty is made for being bundled in packages: all GNU
packages that use libiberty (gcc, binutils, gdb et al...) all have
their own bundled variant. This means that there is no official
upstream for libiberty; the closest being as part of the
combined binutils-gdb tree.

So we introduce a new host-only package, that installs just libiberty
from a binutils released tarball.

Again, as libiberty is usually bundled in packages, it usually only
install a static version. Furthermore, it does not obey to the usual
--enable-shared and --disable-static flags; it only ever builds a
static version.

Furthermore, this library is not built with -fPIC, but some packages
may pick it to build shared objects. This is the case for host-gdb,
for example, which accidentally picks that library instead of its
internal one.

So, rather than fix the various gdb versions and variants we can use,
we ensure that the libiberty we install is usable in shared objects,
and we ensure it is always built before host-gdb.

Prelink-cross emulates a runtime linker for a given sysroot. This is
necessary to allow gobject-introspection to build its typelib files
during cross-compiling.

We're using a sha1 on the cross_prelink branch, as we need the
RTLD-enabled variant of prelink-cross.

meson has support for Python dependencies, to e.g. build Python modules.
It parses Python's sysconfig module to find the appropriate
configuration variables. However, the sysconfig module is the one for
the host, _not_ for the target. Therefore, wrong values may be set. Many
of them get overridden anyway by the cross-compilation.conf. One
particular one that is problematic is that it uses the python-XXX.pc
pkg-config file for the host instead of the target, because it
explicitly sets the PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR found in sysconfig.

Use the same trick as for python package: pass PYTHONPATH,
PYTHONNOUSERSITE and _PYTHON_SYSCONFIGDATA_NAME in the environment to
point to staging instead of host. This ensures the sysconfig from the
target is used instead of the one from the host.

An alternative would be to patch meson to not use the PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR
from sysconfig. However, it is likely that other problems will pop up at
some point because of using the wrong sysconfig.

Note that this approach will still break things when meson needs to
build something for the host during a target build.

GObject introspection is a middleware layer between C
libraries (using GObject) and language bindings. The C library
can be scanned at compile time and generate a metadata file,
in addition to the actual native C library. Then at runtime,
language bindings can read this metadata and automatically
provide bindings to call into the C library.

There's an XML format called GIR used by GObject-Introspection.
The purpose of it is to provide a standard structure to access the
complete available API that a library or other unit of code exports.
It is meant to be language agnostic using namespaces to separate
core, language or library specific functionality.

Cross-compiling gobject-introspection is not an easy task. The main
issue is that in the process of creating the XML files,
gobject-introspection must first run and scan the binary, which, if the
binary is cross-compiled, would not typically be possible from the host
system.

Because of this limitation, several wrappers are used to call instead
first out qemu which will then run the native scanner to create the
binaries.

There are seven total patches and four different wrapper files needed
to successfully cross-compile and run this package, many of them are
from open-embedded, but two of them are of my own doing.

1) Revert a previous, incomplete attempt at adding cross-compiling support.

2) Add support for cross compiling with meson.

3) Disable tests when cross-compiling.

4) Add support for the various wrappers. (See patch for details.)

5) Add an option to use a binary wrapper; this patch will force
   giscanner to use a wrapper executable to run binaries it's producing,
   instead of attempting to run them from the host.

6) Add an option to use an LDD wrapper, again, useful for cross-compiled
   environments.

7) Add a --lib-dirs-envar option to pass to giscanner. (See patch for details.)

8) Add rpath-links to ccompiler: when passing the PACKAGE_GIR_EXTRA_LIBS_PATH
   to the ccompiler.py script, ccompiler.py needs to add -Wl,-rpath-link to the
   environment for the package to correctly link against the passed on paths.

9) Ignore error return codes from ldd-wrapper because prelink-rtld returns 127
   when it can't find a library, which will break subprocess.check_output().

Changes v13 -> v14:
  - Bump to version 1.62.0

Changes v10 -> v11:
  - reorder config.in entries: arch deps first, then toolchain deps
    and order packages deps alphabetically (Yann)
  - drop dependency on threads, wchar, and !static: it's implicit from
    glibc (Yann)
  - Bump to version 1.60.2
  - Switched to a meson build system as autotools is no longer supported with
    gobject-introspection 1.60.x.
  - Removed the following patches that are no longer needed:
      - 0002-configure.ac-add-host-gi-gi-cross-wrapper-gi-ldd-wra.patch
      - 0005-user-PYTHON_CONFIG-to-find-includes.patch
      - 0008-fix-gobject-pc.file.patch
  - Add the following patches:
      - 0002-add-cross-compilation-support-to-meson.patch
      - 0003-meson.build-disable-tests-when-cross-compiling.patch
      - 0008-ignore-error-return-codes-from-ldd-wrapper.patch

Changes v9 -> v10:
  - Makefile cleanup
  - Fix license syntax (Thomas)
  - Add libffi as a mandatory dependency (Thomas)
  - remove --disalbe-static (Thomas)
  - add --with-cairo if the cairo package is selected (Thomas)
  - Change PYTHON_INCLUDES to PYTHON_CONFIG in gobject-introspection.mk
    (Thomas)
  - Use | for all sed functions (Thomas)
  - Remove GOBJECT_INTROSPECTION_WRAPPERS (Thomas)
  - Add GOBJECT_INTROSPECTION_REMOVE_DEVELOPMENT_FILES target finalize
    hook. (Thomas)
  - Use $(dirname $0) in wrappers instead of $STAGING_DIR (Thomas)
  - Remove _GIR_EXTRA_LIBS_PATH in pkg-autotools.mk in favor of a
    seperate patch. (Thomas)

Changes v8 -> v9:
  - Create the $(STAGING_DIR)/usr/lib/gio/modules-dummy directory in the
    GOBJECT_INTROSPECTION_POST_PATCH_HOOKS to prevent qemu from
    segfaulting when g-ir-scanner-qemuwrapper is ran.
  - Remove the $(STAGING_DIR) prefix from gobject-introspection-1.0.pc
    to prevent pkg-config from appending a second staging_dir to the path
    of the g-ir-compiler. This prevents packages such a gstreamer1 from
    trying to call $(STAGING_DIR)/$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/bin/g-ir-compiler,
    which will break the build.

Changes v7 -> v8:
  - Add "select BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_PRELINK_CROSS" to Config.in

Changes v6 -> v7:
  - Remove the cross-ldd script in favor of the prelink-cross package.
  - Install the ldd and qemu wrappers in a post patch hook seperate of
    the other wrappers.
  - Set --enable-introspection-data in the configure options.

Changes v5 -> v6:
  - Update gobject-introspection to 1.56.1
  - Remove upstreamed 0008-add-Float128.patch

Changes v4 -> v5:
  - Added a more detailed commit message (Yann)
  - Removed  $HOST_DIR/bin/qemu- at HOST_QEMU_ARCH@ @HOST_QEMU_CPU_TUNE@
    in favor of @QEMU_USER@ (Thanks Yann)

Changes v3 -> v4:
  - Removed RFC tag.
  - Added 0007-Add-rpath-links-to-ccompiler.patch
  - Removed config-paths-with-PKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT_DIR-.patch as it is not
    Yocto specific.
  - Added the _GIR_EXTRA_LIBS_PATH to pkg-autotools.mk. This allows
    package specific Gir libraries to be passed on to
    g-ir-scanner-qemuwrapper.
  - Fixed a typo in g-ir-scanner-qemuwrapper.in.
  - Remove BR2_PACKAGE_GOBJECT_INTROSPECTION_ARCH_SUPPORTS_TARGET in
    favor of BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_QEMU_ARCH_SUPPORTS

Changes v2 -> v3:
  - Removed Linux kernel dependency (baruch)
  - Changed $(LINUX_VERSION) to $(BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HEADERS_AT_LEAST)
    (baruch)
  - Changed @LINUX_VERSION@ in g-ir-scanner-qemuwrapper.in to
    @TOOLCHAIN_HEADERS_VERSION@ to match the above variable change.
  - Added BR2_PACKAGE_GOBJECT_INTROSPECTION_ARCH_SUPPORTS_TARGET in
    Config.in with only BR2_arm selected for now.
  - Removed BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_QEMU_ARCH_SUPPORTS in favor of the above
    change.
  - Added two new lines in the base Makefile which removes any remaining
    .gir or .rnc files from the target filing system, as these are not
    needed or runtime, only compile time.

Changes v1 -> v2:
  - Fixed wrappers
  - Added 0007-giscanner-add-a-lib-dirs-envvar-option.patch
  - Added 0008-add-Float128.patch

+Subject: [PATCH] giscanner: add --use-binary-wrapper option
+
+With this option, giscanner will use a wrapper executable to run
+binaries it's producing, instead of running them directly. This
+is useful when binaries are cross-compiled and cannot be run directly,
+but they can be run using for example QEMU emulation.

+Subject: [PATCH] giscanner: add a --lib-dirs-envvar option
+
+By default LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set to the list of target library paths;
+this breaks down in cross-compilation environment, as we need to run a
+native emulation wrapper rather than the target binary itself. This patch
+allows exporting those paths to a different environment variable
+which can be picked up and used by the wrapper.

Why do we need this conditional on BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON3 ?
package/pkg-python.mk is using PKG_PYTHON_SYSCONFIGDATA_NAME
unconditionally, regardless of Python 2.x vs. Python 3.x. Could you
explain this ?

Thanks!

 Note that this patch was authored by me, Adam accidentally took over authorship
(which is why he said on IRC he needs to send a v15).

 I can :-)

 It's a mistake. I noticed that PKG_PYTHON_SYSCONFIGDATA_NAME was left empty for
python2, so I made sure it got the correct value (in Python2 there is only one
_sysconfigdata). However, python2 doesn't have the _PYTHON_SYSCONFIGDATA_NAME
variable so it's meaningless.

 Should be tested if things work OK with python2 on target, but I expect they do.

 Arnout

 I hadn't read Adam's remark in the cover letter yet, about how this patch
breaks the build of libglib2.

 I suspect that we shold not set _PYTHON_SYSCONFIGDATA_NAME if python3 is not
selected. Indeed, python3 *will* observe this environment variable, but if
target python3 is not selected, it will be empty. meson will do checks for
host-python, and setting that environment variable will break the check (which
is BTW an example of the comment I made in the commit log of this patch: "Note
that this approach will still break things when meson needs to build something
for the host during a target build."). libglib2 indeed does use python3 during
the build, so it asks meson to check for it, but since it doesn't try to build C
modules for the host, it still works even with a wrong _sysconfigdata.

 Adam, could you test if this works better?

Hey Arnout;

I absolutely can!
I will do so today, and if it works, I will send a V15 with you as the
author of the patch.

Thanks!

Also does not work, because the target python3 may not yet be built.

But that is totally unrelated to the _sysconfigdata "fallback" that I
was criticizing. The issue of "you're passing
_PYTHON_SYSCONFIG_DATA_NAME regardless of whether Python was built
before or not" was already present in your initial submission.

 Ugh indeed, another side effect of this environment being used for both "host"
python and "cross" python...

 I'm starting to think this is not such a good solution after all...

 With "initial submission", do you mean *my* initial submission (i.e. this patch
4/5 from v14), or Adam's initial submission which patched meson itself and which
was taken over from yocto? The latter did not actually change sysconfigdata at
all; instead it patched meson to not make use of the pkg_config_libdir that
comes out of sysconfigdata (which is I think the only thing from sysconfigdata
that is actually used by meson).

 I'll dive into the meson code again to see if I can find something better...

 Arnout

 OK, I *think* I've come up with an alternative (but I'm sure as hell not going
to implement it :-).


 Essentially, it's the same issue as for pkg-config: we should distinguish
between the host version and the cross version (i.e. executable that can run on
the host but that returns results for the target). Meson is very explicit about
such a distinction, so anything pertaining to cross-compilation should be passed
through cross-compilation.conf instead of in the environment.

 As far as I can see in the source code, we can in fact set a
"cross-compilation" python in the [binaries] section. So, we could create a
python wrapper that sets those environment variables, and point to that python
wrapper in the cross-compilation.conf.

 And of course, we can use the same approach in pkg-python.mk: set
$(2)_PYTHON_INTERPRETER to the python wrapper instead of $(HOST_DIR)/bin/python.

 Arnout

This might be a good solution, but it is beyond my skillset to
implement it properly.

If the rest of the series looks good, perhaps we could come up with a
solution during the developer conference and them
implement GOI?

Any plans for v15? Or are you waiting for the next
gobject-introspection release that would make some related patches as

Hi Adam,

I'm bumping udisks which has new dependency libblockdev that in order 
needs gobject-introspection and also libbytesize and volume_key that I'm 
going to send patches for. So I'm testing this patch series.

Only needed to rebase a little and update to latest 
gobject-introspection version(1.63.2).

I'll let you know all the results. You can follow the udisks version 
bumping at:
https://elinux.org/Buildroot#Important

Kind regards

Hi,

this patch breaks pkg-meson.mk on building glib2, as suggested by Adam 
lets substitute it with this patch:

 Just a few minor comments :-)

 I count just 8 patches, and only one of them is by you.

 Did you send this patch upstream? Looks perfectly upstreamable to me.

 It's AND, not OR, so 'GPL-2.0+, LGPL-2.0+' (I prefer to put GPL first because
it's stronger).

 Also some files are BSD-2-Clause.

 Unfortunately no license file for the BSD, so the best we can do is
giscanner/scannerlexer.l

 Nitpick: we usually put the target first, then the host (which is not entirely
logical, because you first build the host and then the target; but ok). Also, no
need to repeat the comment.

# GI_SCANNER_DISABLE_CACHE=1 prevents g-ir-scanner from writing cache data to $HOME

 Don't mess with staging in a post-patch hook. Ideally it should be done in a
install hook, but that's difficult in this case. But still, move it to a
pre-configure or pre-build hook.

 Or maybe better: install them in HOST_DIR/bin during the install of
host-gobject-introspection. It means we can't use the relative paths to
STAGING_DIR in those scripts any more, but we can just use the STAGING_DIR
environment variable (which gets exported anyway, just like HOST_DIR). Or better
yet, use the relative path $(dirname $0)/../@GNU_TARGET_NAME@/sysroot so it is
fully relocatable.

 Can you add why the wrapper is needed?

 No need to repeat that comment :-)

 I think it's better to put these in HOST_DIR as well. It's better for packages
that use g-ir-scanner/compiler, because they can find it in $PATH (with the
usual problem that there's no distinction between native and cross compilation,
but we don't really expect to need any native goi stuff, right?).
