Build capture utility for Linux

Overview

CX-BUILD

Compilation Database alternative

Build

Prerequisite

the CXBUILD uses linux system call trace utility called strace which was customized. So If you want use the cxbuild, you have to build the custom strace(It prints whole path to recognize build commands, https://github.com/damho1104/strace.git)

mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local ..
make -j8

When after you build 'cstrace', please copy cstrace binary into '/usr/bin' or '/bin' directory(or add $PATH environement variable) to make the cxbuild freely invokes.

Export single portable binary

Sometimes python and python module requirements is annoying. the pyinstaller can generate everything in single binary. It is really helpful in many cases.

To do this, Required Python 3.x(we tested 3.6.9) and above version. when you ready to build the cxbuild binary, at the source root directory, type below:

python3 -mvenv python
source python/bin/activate
pip install wheel
pip install -r requirements.txt

pip install pyinstaller
pyinstaller build.spec
chmod +x dist/cxbuild
cp dist/cxbuild /usr/local/bin

or Just use cxbuild with python interpreter like this:

source env/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
python cxbuild.py capture make -j 8

Usage

Capture command

When you ready build your repository, you can use 'capture' command, to make compilation database

cxbuild capture [build command here]

If succeed, "[pwd]/.xdb/compile-commands.json" file will be generated(some intermediate file exist).

Captured command

You can run post process only after build capture completed, It only required when debug something.

The 'captured' command assumes that there exists trace files(full_trace.log) in .xdb directory. and This command run only post process phase, It will generate compile_commands.json file from full_trace.log.

cxbuild captured

Try it

Assumes that 'cstrace' and 'cxbuild' exist in $PATH environment

/bin/cstrace
/bin/cxbuild

gzip

Prepare source build (in Ubuntu OS, apt source command will serve source files to build):

$ apt source gzip
$ls -al
total 1084
drwxr-xr-x  3 minhyuk minhyuk    4096 Nov  1 10:51 .
drwxr-xr-x 12 minhyuk minhyuk    4096 Nov  1 10:51 ..
drwxr-xr-x 11 minhyuk minhyuk    4096 Nov  1 10:52 gzip-1.6
-rw-r--r--  1 minhyuk minhyuk   15604 Jul  8 01:53 gzip_1.6-5ubuntu1.1.debian.tar.xz
-rw-r--r--  1 minhyuk minhyuk    2060 Jul  8 01:53 gzip_1.6-5ubuntu1.1.dsc
-rw-r--r--  1 minhyuk minhyuk 1074924 Aug 21  2013 gzip_1.6.orig.tar.gz

then prepare build tools

$ cd gzip-1.6
$ ./configure

actual build will with cxbuild just type like this:

  • __test_dummy_source__.o is generated at cwd

    __test_dummy_source__.o is generated at cwd

    When you capture a program, __test_dummy_source__.o is generated at cwd.

    $ cxbuild capture gcc -o test test.c
    
    $ ls
    __test_dummy_source__.o test test.c
    
    

    This is not intended behavior. This should be fixed.

    bug: compile_commands.json may have duplicate data

    compile_commands.json may have duplicate data(not entirely duplicated because command is slightly different, but compilation target file is same) like below:

    [
        {
            "directory": "/home/workspace/src",
            "command": "gcc -D HAVE_CONFIG_H -I /home/workspace/src -g -O2 -std=gnu99 -Wall -Wextra -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wpointer-arith -funsigned-char -D _FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -Wcast-align -Wcast-qual -Wshadow -Wbad-function-cast -Wwrite-strings -Wundef -Wuninitialized -Winit-self -Wnested-externs -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Waggregate-return -pipe -MT /home/workspace/src/g72x.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/g72x.Tpo -c -fPIC -D PIC -o /home/workspace/src/.libs/g72x.o -I /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/7/include -I /usr/local/include -I /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/7/include-fixed -I /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu -I /usr/include /home/workspace/src/g72x.c",

        },
       ...
        {
            "directory": "/home/workspace/src",
            "command": "gcc -D HAVE_CONFIG_H -I /home/workspace/src -g -O2 -std=gnu99 -Wall -Wextra -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wpointer-arith -funsigned-char -D _FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -Wcast-align -Wcast-qual -Wshadow -Wbad-function-cast -Wwrite-strings -Wundef -Wuninitialized -Winit-self -Wnested-externs -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Waggregate-return -pipe -MT /home/workspace/src/g72x.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/g72x.Tpo -c -o /home/workspace/src/g72x.o -I /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/7/include -I /usr/local/include -I /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/7/include-fixed -I /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu -I /usr/include /home/workspace/src/g72x.c",
            "file": "/home/workspace/src/g72x.c"
        },
      ...
    ]
    

    The command below does not have -fPIC -D PIC but other data are same. This is confusing.

    This symptom can be reproduced by cxbuild captured command at root of this file(fixed.1.zip). It is normal that .xdb/artifacts.zip is empty.

  • Some paths are not captured properly (not absoulte path)

    Some paths are not captured properly (not absoulte path)

    In some cases, paths in projects.json are not recorded in absolute path.

    If you capture the build information of gzip-1.11, you may see logs like below:

    $ ./configure && cxbuild capture make -j10
    ...
    > eXtension of Compilation Database
    -- [Analyzing build Activities]
    -- [Build trace preprocessed]
    -- [project.json written [/home/vagrant/workspace/gzip-1.11/.xdb/project.json]]
    -- [compile_commands.json written [/home/vagrant/workspace/gzip-1.11/.xdb/compile_commands.json]]
      > All dependency should start with '//'. Ignore 'threadlib.c'.
      > All dependency should start with '//'. Ignore 'lock.c'.
    -- [artifacts.zip written [/home/vagrant/workspace/gzip-1.11/.xdb/artifacts.zip]]
    

    threadlib.c and lock.c are not absolute path. In this case, cxbuild is not killed, but it prints warning messages and ignores the two files.

    These files may be okay to ignore, but we need to know when these things happen.
