`get_event_loop()` would always implicitly create one on demand, but
Python upstream has decided it's a bad/confusing API. Explicitly
starting our own, then setting it, is exactly equivalent other than not
being scheduled for deprecation.
These functions constantly want the current asyncio loop, and we run a
function call each time to get it. And the function call is a deprecated
one. Python 3.7 brings the more explicit get_running_loop for use when
we know we're inside one, with the aim of getting rid of get_event_loop
once support for python <3.7 disappears. Meson no longer supports python
<3.7 either.
Switch to the new API, and save the reference for reuse instead of
constantly re-calculating it.
Fix a TODO comment about moving to asyncio.run, now that we use
sufficiently new python to do it.
Note that we create an event loop for Windows using the new python
defaults, but in a completely different part of the code from where we
need to use it. Since asyncio.run creates the loop on its own, we need
to set the default policy instead -- which we probably should have done
all along.
In https://bugs.python.org/issue42392 this stopped implicitly creating
an event loop if none exists. We created it before running _run_tests(),
so it would auto-create an event loop and set the default, which means
we cannot create one explicitly on our own schedule or we end up with
two of them.
Delay this until we actually start the logger. This happens inside the
actual testsuite loop, so it finds the running loop and doesn't create a
new one, even on python <3.10.
Useful for running the testsuite with this environment variable and
catching obscure issues. Just like with the encoding warning later down,
we have to do this inside meson itself, not externally injected.
Generated objects can already be passed in the "objects" keyword argument
as long as you go through an extract_objects() indirection. Allow the
same even directly, since that is more intuitive than having to add them
to "sources".

It's probably not useful to spam the user with warnings that old
versions of software may not behave correctly when the first warning was
perfectly valid.
There are lots of warnings that become fatal, that are simply unfixable
by the end user. Things like using old versions of software (because
they're using some kind of LTS release), warnings about compilers not
supporting certain kinds of checks, or standards being upgraded due to
skipped implementations (MSVC has c++98 and c++14, but not c++11). None
of these should be fatal, they're informative, and too important to
reduce to notices, but not important enough to stop meson if they're
printed.
We need this outside the constructor for the ParseException class, so
let's pull it out. mlog seemed like a good place since it's a text
formatting function, and has no dependencies.
enum comparisons are ultimately ints, so they're faster, plus they're
exhaustive, so mypy can statically determine that we've passed a valid
value rather than via an assertion at runtime.
This is annoying because we can't get proper auto-completion of mlog,
and because ultimately it was allowing keyword arguments to be silently
dropped on the floor. This does make the code a little more verbose, but
I think the trade-offs of completion + better safety are worth it.
PEP692, which will be part of python 3.12, provides a more elegant
solution using `TypedDicts` to annotate `**kwargs`, which we should
consider in the future.
mypy is pretty dumb when it comes to unions of callables (pylance is
also dumb in this regard), and can't figure out that our use of
`mlog.debug | mlog.log` is perfectly safe. We also can't annotate them
properly to cast them to a valid subset of arguments because you can't
have splats in `typing.Callable`, so I've done enough to make it work.
There should be a way to make mypy happy without casting, but I can't
figure it out, since the mlog.error and mlog.debug actually have
different signatures.
After tracing all the way down to the bottom of this (or really, adding
annotations so mypy can) it turns out that passing file would just be
ignored at the end of the mlog call stack, so it should be removed
fixes instability in precise version of tools resulting in some runners
getting a downgraded version and producing spuriously fixed/reintroduced
codeql alerts.
Hook this up to installed dependency manifests. This is often needed
above and beyond just an SPDX string -- e.g. many licenses have custom
copyright lines.
If `pkg-config --modversion foobar` fails, we don't know why. The
general issue here, though, is that call_pkgbin routinely logs stdout
for informational purposes, but not stderr.
Fixes#11076
Profiling showed that we were spending 25s inside os.path.realpath()
on Windows while generating compile lines for build.ninja, inside
NinjaBackend.generate()
The real path for these will not (should not) change during a single
meson invocation, so cache all these.
Brings build.ninja generation from 73s to 47s on my machine.
The documentation for build_target(...) does not list file or str as
the possible types for the "objects" keyword argument, even though in
theory the argument is meant for prebuild object files that are part
of the sources.
Of course that is only the theory, because an ExtractedObjects object
is probably used a lot more than a file in the source tree. But
at least make the reference manual's typing information accurate.
