Error is raised due to Elbrus Fortran compiler can't
generate debug information for now, because it's a 2-step
compiler where 1st step is code conversion from Fortran to C,
so debug information which C compiler would produce, is useless.
When a dependency is required, not found on the system, and its fallback
is disabled with --wrap-mode=nofallback, meson should abort instead of
returning not-found.
pkgconf automatically prunes "system library paths" from its output. The
system library paths depend on the system toolchain. A common value on a
64-bit system is as follows:
/lib64:/usr/lib64:/usr/local/lib64
So, if -L/usr/lib64 appears in the Libs section, it will be pruned from
the output of pkg-config --libs.
The pc files generated for this test contain something like this:
libdir=/usr/lib
Libs: -L${libdir} ...
pkgconf may not consider /usr/lib to be a system library path, so it is
not pruned as the test expects. To work around this, override the
compiled-in list of paths via the PKG_CONFIG_SYSTEM_LIBRARY_PATH
environment variable.

The rust code is ugly, because rust is annoying. It doesn't invoke a
linker directly (unless that linker is link.exe or lld-link.exe),
instead it invokes the C compiler (gcc or clang usually) to do it's
linking. Meson doesn't have good abstractions for this, though we
probably should because some of the D compilers do the same thing.
Either that or we should just call the c compiler directly, like vala
does.
This changes the public interface for meson, which we don't do unless we
absolutely have to. In this case I think we need to do it. A fair number
of projects have already been using 'ld' in their cross/native files to
get the ld binary and call it directly in custom_targets or generators,
and we broke that. While we could hit this problem again names like
`c_ld` and `cpp_ld` are far less likely to cause collisions than `ld`.
Additionally this gives a way to set the linker on a per-compiler basis,
which is probably in itself very useful.

When there is more than one path in PKG_CONFIG_PATH. It is almost always
preferred to find things in the order specified by PKG_CONFIG_PATH
instead of assuming pkg-config returns flags in a meaningful order.
For example:
/usr/local/lib/libgtk-3.so.0
/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/gtk+-3.0.pc
/usr/local/lib/libcanberra-gtk3.so
/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/libcanberra-gtk3.pc
/home/mesonuser/.local/lib/libgtk-3.so.0
/home/mesonuser/.local/lib/pkgconfig/gtk+-3.0.pc
PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/home/mesonuser/.local/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig"
libcanberra-gtk3 is a library which depends on gtk+-3.0. The dependency
is mentioned in the .pc file with 'Requires', so flags from gtk+-3.0 are
used in both dynamic and static linking.
Assume the user wants to compile an application which needs both
libcanberra-gtk3 and gtk+-3.0. The application depends on features added
in the latest version of gtk+-3.0, which can be found in the home
directory of the user but not in /usr/local. When meson asks pkg-config
for linker flags of libcanberra-gtk3, pkg-config picks
/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/libcanberra-gtk3.pc and
/home/mesonuser/.local/lib/pkgconfig/gtk+-3.0.pc. Since these two
libraries come from different prefixes, there will be two -L arguments
in the output of pkg-config. If -L/usr/local/lib is put before
-L/home/mesonuser/.local/lib, meson will find both libraries in
/usr/local/lib instead of picking libgtk-3.so.0 from the home directory.
This can result in linking failure such as undefined references error
when meson decides to put linker arguments of libcanberra-gtk3 before
linker arguments of gtk+-3.0. When both /usr/local/lib/libgtk-3.so.0 and
/home/mesonuser/.local/lib/libgtk-3.so.0 are present on the command
line, the linker chooses the first one and ignores the second one. If
the application needs new symbols that are only available in the second
one, the linker will throw an error because of missing symbols.
To resolve the issue, we should reorder -L flags according to
PKG_CONFIG_PATH ourselves before using it to find the full path of
library files. This makes sure that we always follow the preferences of
users, without depending on the unreliable part of pkg-config output.

There are two awful things about CompilerArgs, one is that it directly
inherits from list, and there are a lot of subtle gotcahs with
inheriting from builtin types. The second is that the class allows
arguments to be passed in whatever order. That's bad. This also fully
annotates the CompilerArgs class, so mypy can type check it for us.
This dumps xild on mac and linux. After a lot of reading and banging my
head I've discovered we (meson) don't care about xild, xild is only
useful if your invoke ld directly (not through icc/icpc) and you want to
do ipo/lto/wpo. Instead just make icc report what it's actually doing,
invoking ld or ld64 (for linux and mac respectively) directly. This
allows us to get -fuse-ld working on linux.
Previously if a user tried to pass a command line build
option that contained a '%' character the command line
parser assumed that there was string interpolation to be
done. As there is no sense in such a scenario no code
provides any input for the interpolation. This then leads to
a failure.
In this commit we specifically override the defaults in
ConfigParser and set interpolation to None, which disables
command line build option interpolation.
Fixes#6157
A build with a cross file should always be identified as a cross build, even if
the host and build machine are identical. This was the case in 0.50, regressed
in 0.51, and is fixed again in 0.52, so add a test case to ensure it doesn't
regress again.
Now that the linkers are split out of the compilers this enum is
only used to know what platform we're compiling for. Which is
what the MachineInfo class is for
