2023-06-06meson: subprojects: replace submodules with wrap filesPaolo Bonzini
Compared to submodules, .wrap files have several advantages: * option parsing and downloading is delegated to meson * the commit is stored in a text file instead of a magic entry in the git tree object * we could stop shipping external dependencies that are only used as a fallback, but not break compilation on platforms that lack them. For example it may make sense to download dtc at build time, controlled by --enable-download, even when building from a tarball. Right now, this patch does the opposite: make-release treats dtc like libvfio-user (which is not stable API and therefore hasn't found its way into any distros) and keycodemap (which is a copylib, for better or worse). dependency() can fall back to a wrap automatically. However, this is only possible for libraries that come with a .pc file, and this is not very common for libfdt even though the upstream project in principle provides it; it also removes the control that we provide with --enable-fdt={system,internal}. Therefore, the logic to pick system vs. internal libfdt is left untouched. --enable-fdt=git is removed; it was already a synonym for --enable-fdt=internal. Reviewed-by: Daniel P.

add the libvfio-user library as a submodule. build it as a meson subproject. libvfio-user is distributed with BSD 3-Clause license and json-c with MIT (Expat) license Signed-off-by: Elena Ufimtseva <elena.ufimtseva@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: John G Johnson <john.g.johnson@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jagannathan Raman <jag.raman@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com> Message-id: c2adec87958b081d1dc8775d4aa05c897912f025.1655151679.git.jag.raman@oracle.com [Changed submodule URL to QEMU's libvfio-user mirror on GitLab. The QEMU project mirrors its dependencies so that it can provide full source code even in the event that its dependencies become unavailable. Note that the mirror repo is manually updated, so please contact me to make newer libvfio-user commits available. If I become a bottleneck we can set up a cronjob. Updated scripts/meson-buildoptions.sh to match the meson_options.txt change. Failure to do so can result in scripts/meson-buildoptions.sh being modified by the build system later on and you end up with a dirty working tree. --Stefan] Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
