In qemu, minikconf generates a depfile that meson could use to
automatically reconfigure on dependency change.
Note: someone clever can perhaps find a way to express this with a
ninja rule & depfile=. I didn't manage, so I wrote a simple depfile
parser.
'if_true' sources should be built with their dependencies, as
illustrated by test case change.
Ideally, I think we would want only the files with the dependencies to
be built with the flags, but that would probably change the way
sourceset are used.
At configure time, kconfig can read from configure_file().
"test cases/kconfig/4 load_config builddir/meson.build" was already
showing a workaround, now it actually can take configure_file input
directly.
* gtkdoc: Add 'check' kwarg
This runs gtkdoc-check in meson tests.
Also reorganize the gtkdoc test because we cannot reliably build
multiple doc into the same directory. Not all files generated by gtk-doc
are prefixed with the target name.
This further simplifies behavior to match the "build vs host" decision
we did with `c_args` vs `build_c_args`. The rules are now simply:
- `native: true` affects `native: true` targets
- `native: false` affects `native: false` targets
- No native flag is the same as `native: false`
I like this because you don't even have to know what "build" and "host"
mean to understand how it works, and it doesn't depend on whether the
overall build is cross or not.
Fixes#4933
In some cases it may be necessary to set PKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT_DIR, like
when you've mounted a host architecture system in an arbitrary path.
Meson will now check the cross files for a [properties]:sys_root
variable and set the PKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT_DIR environment variable based
on that variable.

* c_function_attributes: remove 'protected' from 'visibility'
This doesn't exist on macos with the apple compiler, which always causes
failures.
Fixes#5530
* compilers: Add split visibility checks to has_function_attribute
These check for a single visibility at a time, rather than all four at
once. This allows for finer grained searches, and should make using
these checks safer across operating systems.
This mirrors the modules keyword argument that some dependencies (such
as qt and llvm) take. This allows an easier method to determine if
modules are installed.
In QEMU a single set of source files is built against many different
configurations in order to generate many executable. Each executable
includes a different but overlapping subset of the source files; some
of the files are compiled separately for each output, others are
compiled just once.
Using Makefiles, this is achieved with a complicated mechanism involving
a combination of non-recursive and recursive make; Meson can do better,
but because there are hundreds of such conditional rules, it's important
to keep meson.build files brief and easy to follow. Therefore, this
commit adds a new module to satisfy this use case while preserving
Meson's declarative nature.
Configurations are mapped to a configuration_data object, and a new
"source set" object is used to store all the rules, and then retrieve
the desired set of sources together with their dependencies.
The test case shows how extract_objects can be used to satisfy both
cases, i.e. when the object files are shared across targets and when
they have to be separate. In the real-world case, a project would use
two source set objects for the two cases and then do
"executable(..., sources: ... , objects: ...)". The next commit
adds such an example.
