This makes the build tree more organized, which is good for adding new
stuff. Now, it's useful for example for adding manual pages in man3/,
but it may be useful in the future for example for extending the build
system to run linters (e.g., clang-tidy(1), Clang analyzer, ...) on the
C source code.
Previously, the build tree was quite flat, and looked like this (after
`./configure && make`):
$ tree -I src build
build
├── Makefile
├── autoconf.data
├── autoconf.err
├── echo
├── libnxt.a
├── nxt_auto_config.h
├── nxt_version.h
├── unitd
└── unitd.8
1 directory, 9 files
And after this patch, it looks like this:
$ tree -I src build
build
├── Makefile
├── autoconf.data
├── autoconf.err
├── bin
│ └── echo
├── include
│ ├── nxt_auto_config.h
│ └── nxt_version.h
├── lib
│ ├── libnxt.a
│ └── unit
│ └── modules
├── sbin
│ └── unitd
├── share
│ └── man
│ └── man8
│ └── unitd.8
└── var
├── lib
│ └── unit
├── log
│ └── unit
└── run
└── unit
17 directories, 9 files
It also solves one issue introduced in
5a37171f733f ("Added default values for pathnames."). Before that
commit, it was possible to run unitd from the build system
(`./build/unitd`). Now, since it expects files in a very specific
location, that has been broken. By having a directory structure that
mirrors the installation, it's possible to trick it to believe it's
installed, and run it from there:
$ ./configure --prefix=./build
$ make
$ ./build/sbin/unitd
Fixes: 5a37171f733f ("Added default values for pathnames.")

This allows one to simply run `./configure` and expect it to
produce sane defaults for an install.
Previously, without specifying `--prefix=...`, `make install`
would simply fail, recommending to set `--prefix` or `DESTDIR`,
but that recommendation was incomplete at best, since it didn't
set many of the subdirs needed for a good organization.
Setting `DESTDIR` was even worse, since that shouldn't even affect
an installation (it is required to be transparent to the
installation).
/usr/local is the historic Unix standard path to use for
installations from source made manually by the admin of the
system. Some package managers (Homebrew, I'm looking specifically
at you) have abused that path to install their things, but 1) it's
not our fault that someone else incorrectly abuses that path (and
they seem to be fixing it for newer archs; e.g., they started
using /opt/homebrew for Apple Silicon), 2) there's no better path
than /usr/local, 3) we still allow changing it for systems where
this might not be the desired path (MacOS Intel with hombrew), and
4) it's _the standard_.

Directory variables should never contain a trailing slash (I've
learned that the hard way, where some things would break
unexpectedly). Especially, make(1) is likely to have problems
when things have double slashes or a trailing slash, since it
treats filenames as text strings. I've removed the trailing slash
from the prefix, and added it to the derivate variables just after
the prefix. pkg-config(1) also expects directory variables to have
no trailing slash.
===
I also removed the code that would set variables as depending on
the prefix if they didn't start with a slash, because that is a
rather non-obvious behavior, and things should not always depend
on prefix, but other dirs such as $(runstatedir), so if we keep
a similar behavior it would be very unreliable. Better keep
variables intact if set, or use the default if unset.
===
Print the real defaults for ./configure --help, rather than the actual
values.
===
I used a subdirectory under the standard /var/lib for NXT_STATE,
instead of a homemade "state" dir that does the same thing.
===
Modified the Makefile to create some dirs that weren't being
created, and also remove those that weren't being removed in
uninstall, probably because someone forgot to add them.
===
Add new options for setting the new variables, and rename some to be
consistent with the standard names. Keep the old ones at configuration
time for compatibility, but mark them as deprecated. Don't keep the old
ones at exec time.
===

This fixes an issue addressed in 651f5a37f5b8 on FreeBSD 12.
The problem manifested itself as:
configuring Ruby module
checking for -fdeclspec ... found
checking for Ruby library ... not found
checking for Ruby library in /usr/local/lib ... not found
./configure: error: no Ruby found.

Future releases of GCC are planning to remove[0] default support for
some old features that were removed from C99 but GCC still accepts.
We can test for these changes by using the following -Werror=
directives
-Werror=implicit-int
-Werror=implicit-function-declaration
-Werror=int-conversion
-Werror=strict-prototypes
-Werror=old-style-definition
Doing so revealed an issue with the auto/ tests in that the test
programs always define main as
int main()
rather than
int main(void)
which results in a bunch of errors like
build/autotest.c:3:23: error: function declaration isn't a prototype [-Werror=strict-prototypes]
3 | int main() {
| ^~~~
build/autotest.c: In function 'main':
build/autotest.c:3:23: error: old-style function definition [-Werror=old-style-definition]
The fix was easy, it only required fixing the main prototype with
find -type f -exec sed -i 's/int main() {/int main(void) {/g' {} \;
Regardless of these upcoming GCC changes, this is probably a good thing
to do anyway for correctness.

Add -fdeclspec to NXT_RUBY_CFLAGS for Clang, if it's available.
Clang incorrectly reports 1 for __has_declspec_attribute(x) in
some cases, such as MacOS or Cygwin. That causes ruby code to
break. ruby added -fdeclspec to their CFLAGS in 2019 to
workaround this bug, since it enables __declspec() and therefore,
the compiler behavior matches what it reports.
Since we don't know what are all the architectures that trigger
the clang bug, let's add the flag for all of them (especially
since it should be harmless).
Add this workaround only at the time of configuring the ruby
module. This way we don't clutter the global NXT_CFLAGS with an
unnecessary flag.

Now it's possible to disable default bind mounts of
languages by setting:
{
"isolation": {
"automount": {
"language_deps": false
}
}
}
In this case, the user is responsible to provide a "rootfs"
containing the language libraries and required files for
the application.
|
|
The gem paths must depend on the specified interpreter.
Also, gemdir looks redundant as it's already included in Gem.default_path().
|
|
There is no reason to use printf instead of just print.
No functional changes.

An attempt to build a Ruby module for a custom Ruby installation that has the
same major version as the system Ruby may unexpectedly cause the use of the
system Ruby library.
This closes #449 issue on GitHub.

Since the introduction of rootfs feature, some language modules
can't be configured multiple times.
Now the configure generates a separate nxt_<module>_mounts.h for
each module compiled.

Currently almost all Unit object files depends on generated nxt_version.h.
This patch adds missing dependence and fixes running make with multiple
jobs.

In most cases it is not needed because Ruby libraries are in the default path.
At the same time, rpath pointing to the default path is prohibited by rpmbuild
on Fedora.

Library now used in all language modules.
Old 'nxt_app_*' code removed.
