The FasterMake build system is meant to be invoked through `mach build
faster`, which does it already, or, in the near future, as part of an
hybrid build system, which will deal with it as well. People doing
`make -C objdir/faster` won't have the backend automatically refreshed,
but that's not a supported way to use it anyways.
While it would be possible to move those things in the export tier, it
is still interesting to have reporting for them separately, especially
considering I expect things to gradually move from the other tiers to
this new one.
While not entirely obvious, the recurse_pre-export target doesn't imply
actual recursion as long as the RecursiveMake backend doesn't emit
traversal information for it, so nothing will actually happen on this
target, but the interesting part is that it runs, per the generic
config/recurse.mk rules for tiers, between BUILDSTATUS TIER_START and
BUILDSTATUS TIER_FINISH, so that all its dependencies are accounted
as being part of the pre-export tier.
GENERATED_FILES impacts the export tier through the config/rules.mk
definitions, now moved to the backend itself, so that everything is
close to each other.
Turns out the claim in bug 1234439 that the FasterMake backend knows
about all the chrome manifest entries is wrong, and there's still one
that is added "manually" with buildlist.py, and during mach build
faster, that can happen before or after the corresponding chrome
manifests are written out by install manifest processing.
While the real fix here would be to make the build system totally
aware of those "manifest interfaces.manifest" entries, for now, it's
simpler to add dependencies to work around the race condition.
Collecting the list of object files compiled, while not ideal, will give us
some indication of how much work was involved in the build. This will help
with analyzing the data.

Limit ourselves to include paths for now, because there are tricky things
involved in making this globally.
While here, use shell_quote instead of manual quoting for those paths.
This might seem like going in the opposite direction of what we tend to do
to move to moz.build land, but those flags are irrelevant in many situations
and are better separated out.
MOZ_DEBUG_DEFINES are essentially defines used everywhere. So treat them as
feeding the initial value for DEFINES in each moz.build sandbox. This allows
the kind overrides that was done in the past by resetting MOZ_DEBUG_DEFINES
in Makefiles.
The only affected symbols are
_PR_<architecture>_Atomic{Decrement,Set,Add,Increment}, they are not exposed in
public headers, have a different name on each architecture, and have a public
API: PR_Atomic{Decrement,Set,Add,Increment}.
Currently, one needs to define DEFFILE or LD_VERSION_SCRIPT appropriately,
and somehow deal with the fact that their input format is different, which
currently relies on manual invocations of the convert_def_file script, with
awkward aggregations.
This simplifies the problem by using a simple list of symbols, with
preprocessing, allowing #includes.
Currently, only css files added through jar manifests are treated this way.
There is really no reason for the discrepancy, but there are actually no css
files added directly through moz.build, so this was never a problem.
On the other hand, it makes things simpler in a world where jar manifests are
treated as if they were entirely described in moz.build (which is where the
FasterMake backend is heading).
Using TEST_DIRS is nothing more than a shortcut for
if CONFIG['ENABLE_TESTS']:
DIRS += [...]
As such, we might as well remove it being a separate variable, and use some
Context magic to just fill DIRS when ENABLE_TESTS is set.
The security/manager/ssl/tests/unit/moz.build change ensures that the order
of DIRS before the change is kept, not because it matters, but because it
allows to confirm that nothing else is modified by this change.
Bug 1191230 added override lines with # characters to chrome manifests
for Windows.
So far, chrome manifests were handled with buildlist.py like in the
RecursiveMake backend, fed with Make variables. Without proper quoting,
those Make variables are just truncated by Make on the first # character,
and this results in mach build faster failing because of that.
However, the reason why chrome manifests were handled with buildlist.py
originally is that not all chrome manifest entries were known to the
FasterMake backend, but they now all are.
So instead of relying on Make variables and buildlist.py, we can now
rely on the newly added install manifests feature allowing to create files
with a given content.
We have many unit tests in the tree for some small parts of the build system
pipeline, but we don't have anything that resembles an end to end test, and we
kind of rely on the resulting Firefox not being broken by our changes.
With the Faster make backend growing, I want to ensure it produces the same
thing as the recursive make backend, at least for the parts it supports.
This adds some kind of test that allows to check that.
The test I'm about to add doesn't have XPIDL files, and that currently avoids
the FasterMake backend to run properly. Also, in the future, when the FasterMake
grows the ability to build C++ files, it should be possible to build Spidermonkey
with the FasterMake backend, but it doesn't have XPIDL files either.
This new ChromeManifestEntry object type is generic and can hold any kind of
chrome manifest entry, but we currently only emit them for binary components.
References to sub-directory manifests is left to the backend, for now, until
all manifest entries are emitted by the frontend.
This patch moves the logic for selecting MOZ_WINCONSOLE out of individual
Makefile.in files and into configure. It also changes config.mk to only
pass -SUBSYSTEM:CONSOLE if MOZ_WINCONSOLE=1. The MSDN docs state that
in the absence of -SUBSYSTEM, the linker will select the proper subsystem
based on whether the program contains [w]main or [w]WinMain, so let it
do that.
One program (windbgdlg) needed a tweak to add a wmain for when MOZ_WINCONSOLE
is defined.
This patch leaves one instance in security/sandbox/win/wow_helper/Makefile.in,
that Makefile has its own separate bug.

Dehydra/Treehydra is unmaintained, broken (iirc), and obsoleted by clang
static analysis. We've removed parts of the build system support for it, but
not all. This is meant to remove the remains.
GENERATED_FILES and accessible/xpcom/Makefile.in add to EXTRA_MDDEPEND_FILES, but for
targets that run during export. Export doesn't include EXTRA_MDDEPEND_FILES, so none
of them is ending up with correct dependencies. The EXTRA_EXPORT_MDDEPEND_FILES variable
could be used for this purpose, but given the circumstances this variable is removed,
and EXTRA_MDDEPEND_FILES is instead included unconditionally.

In bug 922912, we folded back gkmedias.dll info xul.dll, so in practice, there
is no default configuration left that exercises GKMEDIAS_SHARED_LIBRARY. And
sure enough, it's been broken for months in many different ways.
The gkmedias intermediate library is however kept for webrtc signaling tests.
The configure option has explicitly thrown an error for more than a year now,
and it happens that the remaining way to still forcefully use it has been
broken for more than 8 months.
It was added back in
5147d5c69f
for unclear reasons (and the lack of bug number doesn't help), and hasn't been
used, as far as I can see in the gecko-dev history, other than in bug 206029,
which is the only use currently in the tree.
Bug 206029 was working around the Flash player installer modifying Firefox's
prefs file and not dealing with it properly or something depending on the line
endings. 11 years later, all prefs files except channel-prefs.js are in
omni.ja, so obviously, bug 206029 doesn't actually apply anymore.
So, let's simplify it all and get rid of this.
The flags added in toolkit/locales/Makefile.in turn out not to be actually
used, so just remove that.
The remaining uses of XULPPFLAGS are to set debug flags depending on whether
MOZ_DEBUG is set or not. Just set a dedicated variable with the right value
from configure.
At the same time, make the test for libstdc++ more comprehensible.

This commit is us getting out of our own way. We were specifying
-classpath twice, once in $(JAVAC) and once in java-build.mk. Only
the latter of these is active. This a problem for ANDROID_EXTRA_JARS
-- those JARs should be on the classpath and input to $(DX) -- and
JARs that should be on the classpath but *not* input to $(DX). This
commit removes the global flags to $(JAVAC) and adds
JAVA_{BOOT}CLASSPATH_JARS. This required some hijinkery moving
wildcards to moz.build files, but everything seems to work.
As well as clarifying some parts of the build, part 2 uses this work
to modify the classpath.

Use |nm -A| instead of |nm -l| to avoid depending on imprecise debug
information in optimized builds. (And to get the 100x faster
performance.)
Fix a problem with the filename regex so we can also detect symbol
references in from source files with a hyphen in their name.
When bad allocation references are detected, display results from |nm -l|
so we still get the useful line number information.
It was necessary to allow warnings here I introduced ALLOW_COMPILER_WARNINGS in
bug 1198334, but something must have changed subsequently because it no longer
is necessary.

Its only purpose is to disable PGO. Where that was not already explicitly done,
or irrelevant (because the directory only contains python), I disabled it in
moz.build.
As part of this move, HOST_NSPR_MDCPUCFG needed to be changed to get the quoting right.

The patch removes 455 occurrences of FAIL_ON_WARNINGS from moz.build files, and
adds 78 instances of ALLOW_COMPILER_WARNINGS. About half of those 78 are in
code we control and which should be removable with a little effort.

This moves a little bit more of mobile/android/base/Makefile.in into
moz.build, and gets closer to moving that aapt invocation into
java-build.mk.
There are no other extra package consumers in the tree. (There should
be a new one shortly: b2gdroid.)

This paves the way for defining additional Android packages in
moz.build, which is a step toward moving the special
mobile/android/base/Makefile.in aapt invocations into the generic
java-build.mk framework.
The new variables are both passthru variables for now: in the future,
we'll roll them into some aggregate Android APK definition.
It's worth noting that references to the variables in Makefile.in
files are only defined after including rules.mk (and thereby
backend.mk). This only required a few changes in the tree but it
confused me for some time.

Now that we have moz.build, we can be guaranteed that any flags we add
in moz.build will be added after everything else has been setup. So any
uses of MODULE_OPTIMIZE_FLAGS can be moved to moz.build's
CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS without any unusual repercussions. We do have to verify
that MOZ_OPTIMIZE is in effect, though.
We have had singular ANDROID_ASSETS_DIR in Makefile.in for a while.
Fennec itself does not use the existing Makefile.in Android code, for
complicated historical reasons.
This makes the existing variable moz.build-only; generalizes the
existing variable to an ordered list; and adds the equivalent use of
the new list to the Fennec build, with a simple example asset.
This patch also updates the packager to include assets packed into the
gecko.ap_. Without the packager change, the assets/ directory in the
ap_ gets left out of the final apk. This whole approach is totally
non-standard but is more or less required to support our single-locale
repack scheme.
