2021-02-04Check if `.pi` build rules are definedKOBAYASHI Shuji
`.pi` files are created for `.o` files that `build.products` depends on, but an error will occur if the build rule is unknown, so add a check. I don't think this situation would normally arise. However, in `mattn/mruby-onig-regexp`, when using bundled onigmo, onigmo's `.o` files are added to dependency of `libmruby.a` in the second and subsequent builds, and mruby does not know the build rule, so the following error had occured. ```console rake aborted! Don't know how to build task '/mruby/build/host/mrbgems/mruby-onig-regexp/onigmo-6.2.0/libonig_objs/ascii.pi' (See the list of available tasks with `rake --tasks`) ```
2021-01-27Split `presym_table` for reduced program sizeKOBAYASHI Shuji
Because a structure that is an element of `presym_table` has padding, split it into individual arrays for name and length. #### Result (64-bit CPU with full-core gembox) | | mruby | libmruby.a | |--------|------------|------------| | Before | 1,087,444B | 1,476,872B | | After | 1,079,340B | 1,469,784B |
2021-01-27Rename `.i` created for presym scan to `.pi`KOBAYASHI Shuji
This is because compiler's `-save-temps=obj` option creates `.i` with the same name.
2021-01-26Revert "Minimize the changes in #5277"Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto
This reverts commit dc51d89ac22acc60b9bfeed87115863565b74085.
2021-01-22Minimize the changes in #5277Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto
Instead of including `mruby/presym.h` everywhere, we provided the fallback `mruby/presym.inc` under `include/mruby` directory, and specify `-I<build-dir>/include` before `-I<top-dir>/include` in `presym.rake`. So even when someone drops `-I<build-dir>/include` in compiler options, it just compiles without failure.
2021-01-11Remove unneeded check to `mrbtest` in `tasks/presym.rake`KOBAYASHI Shuji
With the change in #5267, `build.products` no longer contains `mrbtest` when `tasks/presym.rake` is loaded.

2020-12-13Improve source scanning for presymKOBAYASHI Shuji
The accuracy is greatly improved by using the C preprocessor to scan C sources for presym. C preprocessor can perfectly interpret all comments and preprocessor directives, so it can detect all symbols defined, for example `mrbgems/mruby-socket/src/const.cstub`. Also, as described later, this change will greatly improve the accuracy of presym detection from Ruby sources. ## Result The number of lines in the `presym` file for all gems is as follows: ```console Previous: 999 (false positive = 89, undetected = 297) New: 1207 ``` ## Build process The new build process (with presym) is as follows: 1. Build `mrbc` without presym (more on building without presym later). 2. Compile Ruby sources to C struct format with the `mrbc` created in step 1, and create` mrblib.c` and `gem_init.c`. Note that the symbols in the created files are output as `MRB_SYM` family macros or `mrb_intern_lit` instead of IDs (details will be described later). 3. C preprocessor processes C sources including the created files of step 2 and outputs them as `.i` files. In these files, for example, `MRB_IVSYM(foo)` is converted to `<@! "@" "foo" !@>` and `mrb_define_module(mrb, "Foo")` is converted to `<@! "Foo" !@>`. 4. Scan the files created in step 3 and create `presym` and` presym.inc` files. The files created in step 2 should output all static symbols defined in Ruby sources, including local variables, so we can detect all presyms by just scanning C sources without scanning Ruby sources directly. Further, by this process, the files to be scanned becomes the same as the files to be compiled, so that there is no excess or deficiency. ## Related changes The following changes have been made in relation to realizing this feature. ### Allow build without presym It enables build without presym to achieve the "Build process: 1". This incorporates #5202, see its issue for details. Note that when presym is enabled, even adding a local variable to a Ruby source may change contents of presym and require recompilation of almost all C sources. This is inconvenient, especially during trial and error in development, but this feature is also useful because it does not cause this problem if presym is disabled. ### Automatically create build target for `mrbc` without presym The `mrbc` used in the "Build process: 1" will be built by automatically creating a build target for it. The build name is `SOURCE_BUILD_NAME/mrbc`. ### Constantize output of C struct format by `mrbc` To realizing the "Build process: 2", as mentioned above, symbol IDs are not output directly in C struct format output by `mrbc`. As a result, the output becomes constant regardless of the state of presym at the time of `mrbc` build, and it is possible to detect symbols of Ruby sources in the same way as other C sources. Note that `mrb_intern_lit` is used for symbols that do not become presym, but in this state, the corresponding element in the symbol array cannot be statically initialized, so it is initialized at run time (therefore, in this case, the `const` qualifier is not added to the symbol array). ### Specify arbitrary `mrbc` file To realizing the "Build process: 2", enabled to specify `mrbc` created by another build target or pre-built` mrbc`. Use `MRuby::Build#mrbcfile =` to specify it explicitly. You can omit the "Build process: 1" by specifying pre-built `mrbc`, and you can always use an optimized build to compile Ruby sources faster. I think changes that affect the output of `mrbc` are rare, so in many cases it helps to improve efficiency. With presym, the build will be a little slower due to more build steps, but this feature will improve it a bit. ### Create presym files for each build target This feature was proposed at #5194 and merged once, but was reverted in 5c205e6e due to problems especially with cross-compilation. It has been introduced again because this change solves the problem. The presym files will be created below. * `build/NAME/presym` * `build/NAME/include/mruby/presym.inc` ### Other changes * Because presym detection accuracy is greatly improved as mentioned above, `MRuby::Gem::Specification#cdump?` is set to true by default, and `disable_cdump` is added instead of `enable_cdump`. Also, support for gem specific presym files has been discontinued (https://github.com/mruby/mruby/issues/5151#issuecomment-730967232). * Previously, `mrbc` was automatically created for the `host` build, but it will not be created if the build target for `mrbc` mentioned above is automatically created. At this time, `mrbc` file of the `mrbc` build is copied to` bin/`. * Two types of `.d` files will be created, `.o.d` and `.i.d`. oThis is because if `.i` depends on `presym.inc`, the dependency will circulate, so the `.d` file cannot be shared. * Changed file created with `enable_cxx_exception` to `X-cxx.cxx` from `X.cxx` to use the mruby standard Rake rule. ### Note Almost all C sources will need to be recompiled if there are any changes to `persym.inc` (if not recompiled properly, it will often result in run-time error). If `gcc` toolchain is used, dependencies are resolved by the `.d` file, so it become automatically recompile target, but if not (e.g. MSVC), it is necessary to manually make it recompile target. Also, even if `gcc` toolchain is used, it may not become recompile target if external gems does not use the mruby standard Rake rule. In particular, if the standard rule is overwritten, such as https://github.com/mruby/mruby/pull/5112/files, `.d` file will not be read, so be careful.
2020-12-01Revert "Create presym files for each build target" (58ba883e)KOBAYASHI Shuji
Due to the above changes, it may not work with the existing build configurations in cross-compilation (even if we can build without presym), therefore revert it once (ref https://github.com/mruby/mruby/pull/5202#issuecomment-735412643). Sorry for the lack of consideration.
2020-11-27Fix incorrect regexp creation in `tasks/presym.rake`KOBAYASHI Shuji
2020-11-27Fix build failure; ref #5194KOBAYASHI Shuji
Fix the following two issues: 1. Compile failure when external gem is specified. * https://github.com/mruby/mruby/pull/5194#issuecomment-734303442 2. When there are multiple build targets, presym parsing sometimes fails or output result of presym is broken. * https://github.com/mruby/mruby/pull/5194#issuecomment-734322142 The root cause of 2 is unknown, but it seems to occur when presym parsing is performed in parallel, therefore I change them so that they are not run in parallel.
2020-11-26Add `tools/*` to target directory for presym parsingKOBAYASHI Shuji
2020-11-26Create presym files for each build targetKOBAYASHI Shuji
Previously, presym files were always created in `build/{presym,presym.inc}`. However, this constraint is inconvenient because it is common to use multiple build configurations and build targets in a single mruby tree. Therefore, change to create presym file for each build target.
