This commit slightly improves the output of pkg-stats by showing the
progress of the upstream URL checks and latest version retrieval, on a
package basis:
Checking URL status

[0002/0062] cmocka
[0003/0062] snappy
[0004/0062] nload

[0062/0062] jhead
Getting latest versions ...
[0001/0064] libglob
[0002/0064] perl-http-daemon
[0003/0064] shadowsocks-libev

[0062/0064] python-aiohttp-security
[0063/0064] ljlinenoise
[0064/0064] matchbox-lib
Note that the above sample was run on 64 packages. Only 62 packages
appear for the URL status check, because packages that do not have any
URL in their Config.in file, or don't have any Config.in file at all,
are not checked and therefore not accounted.

BR2_VERSION_FULL is currently defined as follows:
BR2_VERSION_FULL := $(BR2_VERSION)$(shell $(TOPDIR)/support/scripts/setlocalversion)
This BR2_VERSION_FULL value then gets used as the "VERSION" variable
in the /etc/os-release file.
The logic of "setlocalversion" is that if it is exactly on a tag, it
returns nothing.
If it is on a tag + a number of commits, then it returns only
-XYZ-gABC where XYZ is the number of commits since the last tag, and
ABC the git commit hash (these are extracted from git describe).
This output then gets concatenated to BR2_VERSION which gives
something like 2020.05 or 2020.05-00123-g5bc6a.
The issue is that when you're on a tag specific to your project, which
is not a Buildroot YYYY.MM tag, then the output of setlocalversion is
empty, and all you get as VERSION in os-release is $(BR2_VERSION)
which is not really nice. Worse, if you have another non-official
Buildroot tag between the last official Buildroot tag/version and
where you are, you will get $(BR2_VERSION)-XYZ-gABC, but XYZ will not
correspond to the number of commits since BR2_VERSION, but since the
last tag that "git describe" as found, which is clearly incorrect.
Here is an example: you're on master, "make print-version" (which
displays BR2_VERSION_FULL) will show:
$ make print-version
2020.08-git-00758-gc351877a6e
So far so good. Now, you create a tag say 5 commits "before" master,
and show BR2_VERSION_FULL again:
$ git tag -a -m "dummy tag" dummy-tag HEAD~5
$ make print-version
2020.08-git-00005-gc351877a6e
This makes you believe you are 5 commits above 2020.08, which is
absolutely wrong.
So this commit simplifies the logic of setlocalversion to simply
return what "git describe" provides, and not prepend $(BR2_VERSION) in
the main Makefile. Since official Buildroot tags match official
Buildroot version names, you get the same output when you're on an
official Buildroot tag, or some commits above a Buildroot tag. An in
other cases, you get a sensible output. The logic is also adjusted for
the Mercurial case.
In the above situation, with this commit applied, we get:
$ make print-version
dummy-tag-6-g6258cdddeb
(6 commits instead of 5 as we have this very commit applied, but at
least it's 6 commits on top of the dummy-tag)
Finally, if you're not using a version control system, setlocalversion
was already returning nothing, so in this case, the Makefile simply
sets BR2_VERSION_FULL to BR2_VERSION to preserve this behavior.

The defconfig check has been introduced by the previous
patch before the building each defconfig but those builds
are done every week or more.
Checking if a defconfig is valid can be done on every
push in the repository since it take few seconds.
This would allow to detect as soon as possible a problem
in a defconfig and eventually avoid breaking the build
while build testing all defconfig.
Introduce a new job template ".defconfig_check" in
gitlab-ci.yml.in and modify the generate-gitlab-ci-yml
to create a job for each defconfig to run the test.
Although, we could have used only one job to do all
tests, using one job per defconfig allow to identify
easily in gitlab which defconfig is falling.

When a br2-external tree has an issue, e.g. a missing file, or does not
have a name, or the name uses invalid chars, we report that condition by
setting the variable BR2_EXTERNAL_ERROR.
That variable is defined in the script support/scripts/br2-external,
which outputs it on stdout, and checked by the Makefile.
Before d027cd75d0, stdout was explicitly redirected to the generated
.mk file, with exec >"${ofile}" as the Makefile and Kconfig
fragments were generated each with their own call to the script, and
the validation phase would emit the BR2_EXTERNAL_ERROR variable in the
Makefile fragment.
But with d027cd75d0, both the Makefile and Kconfig fragments were now
generated with a single call to the script, and as such the semantics of
the scripts changed, and only each of the actual generators, do_mk and
do_kconfig, had their out put redirected. Which left do_validate with
the default stdout. Which would emit BR2_EXTERNAL_ERROR on stdout.
In turn, the stdout of the script would be interpreted by as part of the
Makefile. But this does not end up very well when a br2-external tree
indeed has an error:
- missing a external.desc file:
Makefile:184: *** multiple target patterns. Stop.
- empty external.desc file:
Config.in:22: can't open file "output/.br2-external.in.paths"
So we must redirect the output of the validation step to the
Makefile fragment, so that the error message is correctly caught by the
top-level Makefile.
Note that we don't need to append in do_mk, and we can do an overwrite
redirection: if we go so far as to call do_mk, it means there was no
error, and thus the fragment is empty.

As reported by a gitlab runtime test [1] and on the mailing list
[2], some runtime tests are failing on slow host machines when
the qemu-system-<arch> is missing on the host.
The boot-qemu-image.py script need to wait some time after
calling pexpect.spawn() in order to make sure that the qemu
process has been executed in start-qemu.sh.
If start-qemu.sh failed due to missing qemu-system binary
an exception will be thrown by child.expect() and should be
catched by the error handling (pexpect.EOF).
After spending a lot of time to investigate with Yann E. MORIN
[3]. It seems that short-lived child processes are a corner-case
that is not very correctly handled...
Without adding a sleep(1), child.expect() can trigger an
exception before setting the exitstatus of the spawned
process. This issue can be reproduced on a gitlab runner or
by adding "exit 1" in the first line of start-qemu.sh
(after the shebang).
There is even the same workaround in some pexpect examples [4].
Thanks to Yann for the help while investigating the issue.

This script is intended to be used by gitlab CI to test at runtime Qemu
images generated by Buildroot's Qemu defconfigs.
This allows to troubleshoot different issues that may be associated with
defective builds by lanching a qemu machine, sending root password,
waiting for login shell and then perform a shutdown.
This script is inspired by toolchain builder [1] and the Buildroot
testing infrastructure.
The gitlab CI will call this script for each defconfig build but only
Qemu defconfig will be runtime tested, all others defconfig are ignored.
Some Qemu defconfig must be used with a specific Qemu version (fork)
that is not always available, so the script doesn't error out when it
can't spawn a missing command. That condition is anyway printed in the
log.
Finally, the script start Qemu like it's done for the Buildroot
testing infrastructure (using pexpect).
Note:
We noticed some timeout issues with pexpect when the Qemu machine is
powered off. That's because Qemu process doesn't stop even if the
system is halted (after "System halted"). So the script doesn't error
out when such timeout occure. The behaviour depends on the architecture
emulated by Qemu.

The C program inside check-kernel-headers.sh has two checking mode: a
strict and a loose one.
In strict mode, we want the kernel headers version declared by the
user to match exactly the one of the toolchain.
In loose mode, we want the kernel headers version of the toolchain to
be greater than or equal to the one declared by the user: this is used
when we have a toolchain that has newer headers than the latest
version known by Buildroot.
However, in loose mode, we continue to show the "Incorrect kernel
headers version" message, even though we then return a zero error
code. This is very confusing: you see an error displayed on the
terminal, but the build goes on.
We fix that by first doing the loose check first, and returning 0 if
it succeeds. And then we move on with the strict check where we want
the version to be identical.

This commit extends the pkg-stats script to grab information about the
CVEs affecting the Buildroot packages.
To do so, it downloads the NVD database from
https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/data-feeds in JSON format, and processes the
JSON file to determine which of our packages is affected by which
CVE. The information is then displayed in both the HTML output and the
JSON output of pkg-stats.
To use this feature, you have to pass the new --nvd-path option,
pointing to a writable directory where pkg-stats will store the NVD
database. If the local database is less than 24 hours old, it will not
re-download it. If it is more than 24 hours old, it will re-download
only the files that have really been updated by upstream NVD.
Packages can use the newly introduced <pkg>_IGNORE_CVES variable to
tell pkg-stats that some CVEs should be ignored: it can be because a
patch we have is fixing the CVE, or because the CVE doesn't apply in
our case.
>From an implementation point of view:
- A new class CVE implement most of the required functionalities:
- Downloading the yearly NVD files
- Reading and extracting relevant data from these files
- Matching Packages against a CVE
- The statistics are extended with the total number of CVEs, and the
total number of packages that have at least one CVE pending.
- The HTML output is extended with these new details. There are no
changes to the code generating the JSON output because the existing
code is smart enough to automatically expose the new information.

When Buildroot is released, it knows up to a certain kernel header
version, and no later. However, it is possible that an external
toolchain will be used, that uses headers newer than the latest version
Buildroot knows about.
This may also happen when testing a development, an rc-class, or a newly
released kernel, either in an external toolchain, or with an internal
toolchain with custom headers (same-as-kernel, custom version, custom
git, custom tarball).
In the current state, Buildroot would refuse to use such toolchains,
because the test is for strict equality.
We'd like to make that situation possible, but we also want the user not
to be lenient at the same time, and select the right headers version
when it is known.
So, we add a new Kconfig blind option that the latest kernel headers
version selects. This options is then used to decide whether we do a
strict or loose check of the kernel headers.

The + sign in [^/]+ which was suggested by Yann E. Morin during the
review of the per-package patch series (instead of [^/]*) needs to be
escaped to be taken into account correctly. Without this, the regexp
doesn't match, and the replacement is not done, causing:
(1) For the libtool fixup in pkg-generic.mk, the lack of replacement
causes libtool .la files to not be tweaked as expected, which it
turn causes build failures reported by the autobuilder.
(2) For the fix-rpath, the RPATH of host binaries in the SDK were not
correct.
Interestingly, we have the same regexp in
support/scripts/check-host-rpath, but here the + sign does not need to
be escaped.

This commit implements the core of the move to per-package SDK and
target directories. The main idea is that instead of having a global
output/host and output/target in which all packages install files, we
switch to per-package host and target directories, that only contain
their explicit dependencies.
There are two main benefits:
- Packages will now see only the dependencies they explicitly list in
their <pkg>_DEPENDENCIES variable, and the recursive dependencies
thereof.
- We can support top-level parallel build properly, because a package
only "sees" its own host directory and target directory, isolated
from the build of other packages that can happen in parallel.
It works as follows:
- A new output/per-package/ directory is created, which will contain
one sub-directory per package, and inside it, a "host" directory
and a "target" directory:
output/per-package/busybox/target
output/per-package/busybox/host
output/per-package/host-fakeroot/target
output/per-package/host-fakeroot/host
This output/per-package/ directory is PER_PACKAGE_DIR.
- The global TARGET_DIR and HOST_DIR variable now automatically point
to the per-package directory when PKG is defined. So whenever a
package references $(HOST_DIR) or $(TARGET_DIR) in its build
process, it effectively references the per-package host/target
directories. Note that STAGING_DIR is a sub-dir of HOST_DIR, so it
is handled as well.
- Of course, packages have dependencies, so those dependencies must
be installed in the per-package host and target directories. To do
so, we simply rsync (using hard links to save space and time) the
host and target directories of the direct dependencies of the
package to the current package host and target directories.
We only need to take care of direct dependencies (and not
recursively all dependencies), because we accumulate into those
per-package host and target directories the files installed by the
dependencies. Note that this only works because we make the
assumption that one package does *not* overwrite files installed by
another package.
This is done for "extract dependencies" at the beginning of the
extract step, and for "normal dependencies" at the beginning of the
configure step.
This is basically enough to make per-package SDK and target work. The
only gotcha is that at the end of the build, output/target and
output/host are empty, which means that:
- The filesystem image creation code cannot work.
- We don't have a SDK to build code outside of Buildroot.
In order to fix this, this commit extends the target-finalize step so
that it starts by populating output/target and output/host by
rsync-ing into them the target and host directories of all packages
listed in the $(PACKAGES) variable. It is necessary to do this
sequentially in the target-finalize step and not in each
package. Doing it in package installation means that it can be done in
parallel. In that case, there is a chance that two rsyncs are creating
the same hardlink or directory at the same time, which makes one of
them fail.
This change to per-package directories has an impact on the RPATH
built into the host binaries, as those RPATH now point to various
per-package host directories, and no longer to the global host
directory. We do not try to rewrite such RPATHs during the build as
having such RPATHs is perfectly fine, but we still need to handle two
fallouts from this change:
- The check-host-rpath script, which verifies at the end of each
package installation that it has the appropriate RPATH, is modified
to understand that a RPATH to $(PER_PACKAGE_DIR)/<pkg>/host/lib is
a correct RPAT.
- The fix-rpath script, which mungles the RPATH mainly for the SDK
preparation, is modified to rewrite the RPATH to not point to
per-package directories. Indeed the patchelf --make-rpath-relative
call only works if the RPATH points to the ROOTDIR passed as
argument, and this ROOTDIR is the global host directory. Rewriting
the RPATH to not point to per-package host directories prior to
this is an easy solution to this issue.

genimage makes a full copy of the given rootpath to ${GENIMAGE_TMP}/root
so passing TARGET_DIR would be a waste of time and disk space. We don't
rely on genimage to build the rootfs image, just to insert a pre-built
one in the disk image.

Back a few years ago, when we were starting to think about top-level
parallel build, we were not sure how to deal with packages that
installed the same files, so we wanted to catch the situation to assess
how prevalent that was, before we decided what to do and how to address
it.
However, the trend nowadays is that packages will install in a
per-package target/ (and staging/ and host/), and the final directories
will be assembled in a reproducible (alphabetical) order, so if two
packages install the same file, the last one will win (as is currently
the case).
Besides, check-uniq-files reports loads of spurious errors when packages
get reinstalled (e.g. during development).
Finally, check-uniq-files is the only script called during the build,
that is written in python.
So, get rid of check-uniq-files.

When selected, host-ccache is a dependency of almost all packages.
As such, it clutters the dependency graph uselessly.

The POSIX specification defines a 'trap <action> EXIT' mechanism that is
useful to perform clean-up actions in shell scripts. A trap has two main
advantages over hand-crafted clean-up mechanisms:
- It runs even if the process is terminated by a SIGTERM.
- It runs even if the script stops due to a pipeline failure (set -e).
Now we can make the script to stop immediately if a compilation error
occurs, instead of letting it try to run an unexisting program.
This change may appear to be overkill but Buildroot is an open source
project and each piece of code is a potential learning tool for other
developments. We must strive to provide good examples.
