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.
Which adds the `use-set-for-membership` check. It's generally faster in
python to use a set with the `in` keyword, because it's a hash check
instead of a linear walk, this is especially true with strings, where
it's actually O(n^2), one loop over the container, and an inner loop of
the strings (as string comparison works by checking that `a[n] == b[n]`,
in a loop).
Also, I'm tired of complaining about this in reviews, let the tools do
it for me :)
ccache was used in all command lines but disabled using CCACHE_DISABLE
in Compiler.compile() method. Wrapping invokations still has a cost,
especially on Windows.
With sccache things are even worse because CCACHE_DISABLE was not
respected at all, making configure *extremely* slow on Windows when
sccache is installed.
We need to support cases where the library might be called "foo.so" and
therefore we check for exact matches too. But this also allows
`cc.find_library('libfoo')` to find libfoo.so, which is strange and
won't work in many cases. Emit a warning when this happens.
Fixes#10838
We *mostly* just need to do the same thing. Plug in one utility method
to make sanity_check_impl find the right compile args, and plug in
DEVNULL to the test run. It's that simple.
This solves a few inconsistencies. The main one is that fortran never
logged the sanity checks to the Meson debug log, making it hard to
debug.
There's also some interesting quirks we built up in the dedicated
fortran handling. For example:
- in commit 5b109c9ad2 we added cwd to
building the fortran executable, with a wordy comment about how the
compiler has defects. But the clike base has always done that on
general principle anyway, so we would never have had that bug in the
first place.
- in commit d6be7822a0 we added special
deletion of an old "bad existing exe file" just for fortran. Looking
at the PR discussion for this odd requirement, it turns out that the
real problem is mixing WSL and native Windows without deleting the
build directory. This is apparently fortran specific simply because
"contemporary Windows 10 Fortran users" switch between the two?
The actual problem is that this never used .exe as the output name, so
Windows thinks you want to run something other than the thing you
asked to run, because it's not even a Window executable. But... the
common clike handling could have fixed that without needing special
cases.
[why]
Support for the relatively new mold linker is missing. If someone wants
to use mold as linker `LDFLAGS="-B/path/to/mold"` has to be added instead
of the usual `CC_LD=mold meson ...` or `CXX_LD=mold meson ...`.
[how]
Allow `mold' as linker for clang and newer GCC versions (that versions
that have support).
The error message can be a bit off, because it is generic for all GNU
like compilers, but I guess that is ok. (i.e. 'mold' is not listed as
possible linker, even if it would be possible for the given compiler.)
[note]
GCC Version 12.0.1 is not sufficient to say `mold` is supported. The
expected release with support will be 12.1.0.
On the other hand people that use the un-released 12.0.1 will probably
have built it from trunk. Allowing 12.0.1 is helping bleeding edge
developers to use mold in Meson already now.

When something goes wrong with running the compiler in
_symbols_have_underscore_prefix_searchbin, print stderr instead,
as it actually contains helpful output while stdout is usually empty
in this case.
Removed errant "type: ignore".
Fixed issue with "fetch" call. This issue was the following:
Dict::get() and Dict::pop() have the following signature:
T.Callable[[_T, _U], _U | None] OR T.Callable[[_T], _U | None]
Note how the return type is _U here. When the fetch() function was
actually being called, it had the following signature:
T.Callable[[_T, T.List[_U]], T.Union[T.List[_U], _U]]
This is incompatible with the previous definitions. The solution is
simply to move where the default value is introduced if fetch() produces
None.
We have a lot of these. Some of them are harmless, if unidiomatic, such
as `if (condition)`, others are potentially dangerous `assert(...)`, as
`assert(condtion)` works as expected, but `assert(condition, message)`
will result in an assertion that never triggers, as what you're actually
asserting is `bool(tuple[2])`, which will always be true.
When mutable items are stored in an lru cache, changing the returned
items changes the cached items as well. Therefore we want to ensure that
we're not mutating them. Using the ImmutableListProtocol allows mypy to
find mutations and reject them. This doesn't solve the problem of
mutable values inside the values, so you could have to do things like:
```python
ImmutableListProtocol[ImmutableListProtocol[str]]
```
or equally hacky. It can also be used for input types and acts a bit
like C's const:
```python
def foo(arg: ImmutableListProtocol[str]) -> T.List[str]:
arg[1] = 'foo' # works while running, but mypy errors
```
This gets rid of compile warnings, and simplifies the code.
Note that `work_dir` in sanity_check_impl was incorrect,
it was used both to prepend to file names and as cwd=work_dir
argument to Popen. This is fixed here.

Dependencies is already a large and complicated package without adding
programs to the list. This also allows us to untangle a bit of spaghetti
that we have.
All changes were created by running
"pyupgrade --py3-only --keep-percent-format"
and committing the results. I have not touched string formatting for
now.
- use set literals
- simplify .format() parameter naming
- remove __future__
- remove default "r" mode for open()
- use OSError rather than compatibility aliases
- remove stray parentheses in function(generator) scopes
This patches takes the options work to it's logical conclusion: A single
flat dictionary of OptionKey: UserOptions. This allows us to simplify a
large number of cases, as we don't need to check if an option is in this
dict or that one (or any of 5 or 6, actually).
I would have prefered to do these seperatately, but they are combined in
some cases, so it was much easier to convert them together.
this eliminates the builtins_per_machine dict, as it's duplicated with
the OptionKey's machine parameter.
The implementation of the link variant was what should have been the
compiler variant, and there was no valid compiler variant, which meant
it was getting C code.
This abstraction is really useful, and most compilers could use it
(including D). It also will allow the Gnu mixins to work properly
without the CLikeCompiler in their mro.
We do this by making the mixins inherit the Compiler class only when
mypy is examining the code (using some clever inheritance shenanigans).
This caught a bunch of issues, and also lets us delete a ton of code.
