When potentially adding the `--disable-lib` flag, don't drop existing
extra configure flags. Specifically, the `--enable-crossany` flag
from distro-build could get lost, which breaks a soutrce distribution
with built packages.
Implementing a thorough `clean` target for a repo-based is tedious and
error-prone. Instead, make the `clean` target suggest `git clean -d -x
-f .`, which is more effective in most situations (but seems too
dangerous to run automatically).
Use `--no-user` for the `raco setup` that is supposed to finish a
bundle. Otherwise, things installed in user scope for the same Racket
version (i.e., the one being bundled) can interfere with the bundling
process.
configure scripts look for and read a local configuration file given by the
environment variable CONFIG_SITE. This can set variables such as prefix.
Racket’s build system was assuming that prefix would be set to NONE unless a
--prefix command line argument was given. But it could be set by a
CONFIG_SITE configuration file instead.
Hence, for in-place build add an explicit --disable-useprefix option, to
cause any prefix setting to be ignored, and use that in the top-level
Makefile.
Regenerate the configure scripts to get the updated code.
Closes#2659 by both recognizing `lib64` as a default path and by
having `--enable-origtree` override inference and specified when
running `configure` through the root makefile.
Note that the source-distribution client must have a
"build/ChezScheme" checkout created, maybe by building as a 'cs
variant. A pruned version of that checkout is then included with other
sources. The resulting source distributon then works for building
either Racket variant.
Adapt the configure scripts and makefiles to use a "ChezScheme"
directory that is bundled with sources.
The `--recompile-only` flag makes sense if machine-independent
bytecode can be deterministically generated from all Racket builds.
While the current compiler is close, there are obstacles such as the
lack of support for single-precision floating-point literals in Racket
CS. We settle for using `--recompile-only` in the main bundle phase,
which is the part that most needs to go fast.
The `--recompile-only` flag is intended to help dectect build
problems, especially distribution builds where packages are
supposed to be in built form.
The `--error-out` and `--error-in` flags are meant to work together to
chain a sequence of `raco setup` steps where one of them might fail,
but other steps should proceed. The last step in that sequence should
use only `--error-in`, so that it exits with failure if any of the
steps failed.
The `both` target of the toplevel makefile uses `--error-out` and
`--error-in` to let a Racket CS build proceed as long as the
traditional Racket build made it to the last `raco setup` step, which
means that it survives package-build errors.
Makefile and configure refinements, including targets to let the
distro-build package drive a cross-build from scratch. A cross
build on Mac OS for Windows now works, for example.
Use "cs/c" to be parallel to the source tree, because making them
different is asking for trouble (e.g., using `configure` without
a separate "build" directory goes wrong).
Enable `raco {setup|make}` to build two sets of compiled files: one
set that is suitable for the current machine, and another set that is
suitable for a different machine or for all machines (i.e.,
machine-independent bytecode).
In the long run, this new `raco setup` mode support cross compilation
where the build machine and target machine have different bytecode
formats --- unlike the current cross-compliation mode, which relies on
there being a single bytecode format in traditional Racket for all
platforms.
In the short run, the new mode enables the faster creation of
Racket-on-Chez distribution builds. The build server can send out
machine-independent bytecode to client machines while using
machine-specific bytecode for itself to drive the build process.
The new compilation mode relies on a somewhat delicate balance of the
`current-compile-target-machine` and `current-compiled-file-roots`
parameters (as reflected by the `-M` and `-R` command-line flags for
Racket) as well as cross-compilation mode (as enabled by the `-C`
command-line flag).
