It's cumbersome to maintain the build options twice, one time in the
configure script and one time in meson_options.txt. Thus let's add some
logic to the configure script to look at the meson_options.txt file
instead of handling every option twice.

Thomas Huth (3):
  configure: Add the possibility to read options from meson_options.txt
  configure: Remove options that can be handled via meson_options.txt
    instead
  configure: Get help text from meson_options.txt

To avoid double maintenance between the configure script and
meson_options.txt, add some simple logic in the configure script
to read the options from meson_options.txt.

These trivial options can now be handled via the new generic code
that parses meson_options.txt

It's cumbersome to maintain the option help texts twice, once in the
"configure" script and once in meson_options.txt. So let's add some logic to
the configure script to read most of the help texts from meson_options.txt.

It looks similar to:
https://patchew.org/QEMU/20210107140039.467969-1-pbonzini@redhat.com/

Isn't it? (I haven't studied in details neither, I may be out of topic).

Oh, right, thanks for the pointer, I wasn't aware of that series yet. It's 
indeed similar to patch 8/8 from Paolo's series. But while Paolo is using an 
additional Perl-script and a json file for handling the configure options, 
my series just uses some lines of shell code in the configure script.

Paolo, why did your patch get stalled? ... my way of parsing is certainly 
way more fragile, but it's less complicated and seems to work as long as all 
the options are written in the same way in meson_options.txt (e.g. as long 
as nobody tries to use multi-line descriptions of the options there etc.)... 
so maybe if the additional Perl script was too much, this could be a good 
compromise?

  Thomas

IIRC while Perl is perfect for parsing, the maintenance cost is too
high. The git-forge / meson switch proved next-gen contributors are
more at ease with Python. The few contributors who are fluent with
Perl are usually very busy maintainers.

That seems a bit strong to me. But I would say that for code where
most people touching it are non-language-experts who need to just
occasionally dip in to it to fix a problem, rather than spending
most of their time working on that code, Python is easier to
understand than Perl is. Plus we have more Python than Perl; so we
should probably prefer Python in new scripts for the project.

configure is a /bin/sh script, which means that using echo on
user-supplied arguments is unsafe (a malicious user may provide a
backslash, which not all 'echo' implementations treat the same across
different sh implementations).  What's more, $opt starts with
"--enable", and 'echo --enable' may trigger echo to try and warn about
an unknown option.  To be portable, you want:

arg=$(printf %s\\n "$opt" | sed...)

Pre-patch, if you used neither --enable-brlapi nor --disable-brlapi,
we called $meson with -Dbrlapi=auto.

Post-patch, if you use an option, $meson_options includes
-Dbrlapi=disabled or -Dbrlapi=enabled (per patch 1), but if you omit
an option, now we aren't passing anything.  Does meson treat
-Dbrlapi=auto and the absence of any mention of brlapi identically?
If so, then this patch is good; if not, you are stripping too much.

Why is the default for this option changed?  It looks unrelated to the
mechanical changes in the rest of the patch, enough so to warrant its
own patch, or at least special mention in the commit message.

But I think I just answered my question above: in meson_options.txt,
we typically default an unspecified option to 'auto'.  So now it's
just making sure that all such options removed from configure in this
patch have a sane default.

/me goes reading...

Yep, every option deleted above appears with 'auto' in
meson_options.txt.  It's annoying that we did not have consistent
ordering in any of the three places; alphabetic might have been nice;
we even had --disable-glusterfs and --enable-glusterfs split by
unrelated options in the case statement.

Whether you split the patch or amend the commit message, I've now done
enough review that I'm happy if you add:

current_desc is unused below.

A bit misleading in the variable names.  As a sample, you are parsing:

option('malloc_trim', type : 'feature', value : 'auto',
       description: 'enable libc malloc_trim() for memory optimization')

which read then splits into:

word1="option('malloc_trim'," word2="type : 'feature', value : 'auto',"
or
word1="description:" word2="'enable libc malloc_trim() for memory optimization')"

Better might be the names $first and $rest.  You could also play with
$IFS for more precise splitting, but your hack is good enough for the
current usage.

Unlike my complaint in patch 1 about using echo on user-supplied text,
here you are using it on test in meson_options.txt which is presumably
not going to contain \ or leading -.

> +           current_feature=$(echo $word1 | sed -e "s/option('//" -e "s/',.*$//")

If desired, you can save some fork()ing by doing:

case "$word2" in *type*:*"'feature'")
    current_feature=${word1%\'*}
    current_feature=${current_feature#*\'}
  *) current_feature=""
esac

Similarly,

if [ "$current_feature" ]; then
  word2=${word2%\'*}
  printf "  %-15s %s\n" "$current_feature" "${word2#\'}"
fi

> +           current_feature=""

Missing a *) catchall case (probably a good idea to reset
current_feature back to "" on lines that don't match the two forms you
care about).

I believe the default is right there in meson_options.txt:

option('brlapi', type : 'feature', value : 'auto',
        description: 'brlapi character device driver')

with value: 'auto'

I can confirm what you've already discovered later in your review already: 
The "auto" setting is used by default in meson_options.txt already.

Agreed, I think I'll best split it into a separate patch. For the context: I 
should have changed this already in 3a6a1256d46daa2121 ("configure: Allow 
vnc to get disabled with --without-default-features"), but I was not aware 
of the duplicated values between meson_options.txt and the configure script 
at that point in time yet.

Thanks for your review, Eric! Your shell script knowledge is always amazing! :-)

I'll wait for Paolo first to chime in to see whether he rather wants to 
resume his variant with the Perl or Python script, but if not, I'll include 
your suggestions in the next version of the patch.

It just wasn't worthwhile at the time given how few meson options were
there. I missed 6.1 and was going to send it out again for 6.2.

The reason for using Perl was because there's no guarantee of knowing the
path to the Python interpreter until after --python is parsed, so there
would be a risk of not being able to give a full help. I don't like Perl
very much, but the difference in obscurity between Perl and Eric-level sh
is small. :)
