Reworking lua to allow easier substitution of the base lua implementation.
Also adding in a maintained version of luajit and re-factoring the entire stack
to use a custom build-system to centralize functionality like environment
variable management and luarocks installation.
The `lua-lang` virtual is now versioned so that a package that requires
Lua 5.1 semantics can get any lua, but one that requires 5.2 will only
get upstream lua.
The luaposix package requires lua-bit32, but only when built with a
lua conforming to version 5.1. This adds the package, and the
dependencies, but exposed a problem with luarocks dependency
detection. Since we're installing each package in its own "tree" and
there's no environment variable to list extra trees, spack now
generates a luarocks config file that lists all the trees of all the
dependencies, and references it by setting `LUAROCKS_CONFIG`
in the build environment of every LuaPackage. This allows luarocks
to find the spack installed dependencies correctly rather than
trying (and failing) to download them.

* ASP-based solver: allow configuring target selection
This commit adds a new "concretizer:targets" configuration
section, and two options under it.
- "concretizer:targets:granularity" allows switching from
considering only generic targets to consider all possible
microarchitectures.
- "concretizer:targets:host_compatible" instead controls
whether we can concretize for microarchitectures that
are incompatible with the current host.
* Add documentation
* Add unit-tests
* Ignore top-level module config; add auto-update
In Spack 0.17 we got module sets (modules:[name]:[prop]), and for
backwards compat modules:[prop] was short for modules:default:[prop].
But this makes it awkward to define default config for the "default"
module set.
Since 0.17 is branched off, we can now deprecate top-level module config
(that is, just ignore it with a warning).
This PR does that, and it implements `spack config update modules` to
make upgrading easy (we should have added that to 0.17 already...)
It also removes references to `dotkit` stuff which was already
deprecated in 0.13 and could have been removed in 0.14.
Prefix inspections are the only exception, since the top-level prefix inspections
used for `spack load` and `spack env activate`.

* Loading Intel's ifx Fortran compiler into MSVC; if there are multiple
versions of MSVC installed and detected, ifx will only be placed into
the first block written in compilers.yaml. The version number of ifx can
be detected using MSVC's version flag (instead of /QV) by using
ignore_version_errors. This commit also provides support for detection
of Intel compilers in their own compiler block by adding ifx.exe to the
fc/f77_name blocks inside intel.py

The concretizer is going to grow to have many more configuration,
and we really need some structured config for that.
* We have the `config:concretizer` option that chooses the solver,
but extending that is awkward (we'd need to replace a string with
a `dict`) and the solver choice will be deprecated eventually.
* We have the `concretization` option in environments, but it's
not a top-level config section -- it's just for environments,
and it also only admits a string right now.
To avoid overlapping with either of these and to allow the most
extensibility in the future, this adds a new `concretizer` config
section that can be used in and outside of environments. There
is only one option right now: `reuse`. This can expand to include
other options later.
Likely, we will soon deprecate `config:concretizer` and warn when
the user doesn't use `clingo`, and we will eventually (sometime later)
move the `together` / `separately` options from `concretization` into
the top-level `concretizer` section.
This commit just adds the new section and schema. Fully wiring it
up is TBD.
Add an abstraction around libllvm to allow libllvm
providers to be specified for all packages.
This is targeting allowing mesa to build against
llvm-amdgpu or intel-llvm or llvm or any other

There were some loose ends left in ##26735 that cause errors when
using `SPACK_DISABLE_LOCAL_CONFIG`.
- [x] Fix hard-coded `~/.spack` references in `install_test.py` and `monitor.py`
Also, if `SPACK_DISABLE_LOCAL_CONFIG` is used, there is the issue that
`$user_config_path`, when used in configuration files, makes no sense,
because there is no user config scope.
Since we already have `$user_cache_path` in configuration files, and since there
really shouldn't be *any* data stored in a configuration scope (which is what
you'd configure in `config.yaml`/`bootstrap.yaml`/etc., this just removes
`$user_config_path`.
There will *always* be a `$user_cache_path`, as Spack needs to write files, but
we shouldn't rely on the existence of a particular configuration scope in the
Spack code, as scopes are configurable, both in number and location.
- [x] Remove `$user_config_path` substitution.
- [x] Fix reference to `$user_config_path` in `etc/spack/deaults/bootstrap.yaml`
to refer to `$user_cache_path`, which is where it was intended to be.
Spack's `system` and `user` scopes provide ways for administrators and
users to set global defaults for all Spack instances, but for use cases
where one wants a clean Spack installation, these scopes can be undesirable.
For example, users may want to opt out of global system configuration, or
they may want to ignore their own home directory settings when running in
a continuous integration environment.
Spack also, by default, keeps various caches and user data in `~/.spack`,
but users may want to override these locations.
Spack provides three environment variables that allow you to override or
opt out of configuration locations:
* `SPACK_USER_CONFIG_PATH`: Override the path to use for the
`user` (`~/.spack`) scope.
* `SPACK_SYSTEM_CONFIG_PATH`: Override the path to use for the
`system` (`/etc/spack`) scope.
* `SPACK_DISABLE_LOCAL_CONFIG`: set this environment variable to completely
disable *both* the system and user configuration directories. Spack will
only consider its own defaults and `site` configuration locations.
And one that allows you to move the default cache location:
* `SPACK_USER_CACHE_PATH`: Override the default path to use for user data
(misc_cache, tests, reports, etc.)
With these settings, if you want to isolate Spack in a CI environment, you can do this:
export SPACK_DISABLE_LOCAL_CONFIG=true
export SPACK_USER_CACHE_PATH=/tmp/spack
This is a stop-gap approach until we have figured out how to deal with
the system and user config scopes more generally, as there are plans to
potentially / eventually get rid of them.
**User config**
Spack is a bit of a pain when you have:
- a shared $HOME folder across different systems.
- multiple Spack versions on the same system.
**System config**
- On shared systems with a versioned programming environment / toolkit,
system administrators want to provide config for each version (e.g.
21.09, 21.10) of the programming environment, and the user Spack
instance should be able to pick this up without a steep learning
curve.
- On shared systems the user should be able to opt out of the
hard-coded config scope in /etc/spack, since it may be incompatible
with their particular instance. Currently Spack can only opt out of all
config scopes through overrides with `"config:":`, `"packages:":`, but that
also drops the defaults config, which would have to be repeated, which
is undesirable, especially the lengthy packages.yaml.
An example use case is: having config in this folder:
```
/path/to/programming/environment/{version}/{compilers,packages}.yaml
```
and have `module load spack-system-config` set the variable
```
SPACK_SYSTEM_CONFIG_PATH=/path/to/programming/environment/{version}
```
where the user no longer has to worry about what `{version}` they are
on.
**Continuous integration**
Finally, there is the use case of continuous integration, which may
clone an arbitrary Spack version, which optimally should not pick up
system or user config from the previous run (like may happen in
classical bare metal non-containerized filesystem side effect ridden
jenkins pipelines). In fact this is very similar to how spack itself
tries to avoid picking up system dependencies during builds...
**But environments solve this?**
- You could do `include`s in environment files to get similar behavior
to the spack_system_config_path example, but environments require you
to:
1) require paths to individual config files, not directories.
2) fail if the listed config file does not exist
- They allow you to override config scopes, but this is generally too
rigurous, as it requires you to repeat the default config, in
particular packages.yaml, and just defies the point of layered config.

Installing packages with a lot of dependencies does not have an easy way
of judging the current progress (apart from running `spack spec -I pkg`
in another terminal). This change allows Spack to update the terminal's
title with status information, including its current progress as well as
information about the current and total number of packages.
Modifications:
- [x] Change `defaults/config.yaml`
- [x] Add a fix for bootstrapping patchelf from sources if `compilers.yaml` is empty
- [x] Make `SPACK_TEST_SOLVER=clingo` the default for unit-tests
- [x] Fix package failures in the e4s pipeline
Caveats:
1. CentOS 6 still uses the original concretizer as it can't connect to the buildcache due to issues with `ssl` (bootstrapping from sources requires a C++14 capable compiler)
1. I had to update the image tag for GitlabCI in e699f14.
1. libtool v2.4.2 has been deprecated and other packages received some update
* Bootstrap clingo from binaries
* Move information on clingo binaries to a JSON file
* Add support to bootstrap on Cray
Bootstrapping on Cray requires, at the moment, to
swap the platform when looking for binaries - due
to #22800.
* Add SHA256 verification for bootstrapped software
Use sha256 verification for binaries necessary to bootstrap
the concretizer and gpg for signature verification
* patchelf: use Spec._old_concretize() to bootstrap
As noted in #24450 we may happen to need the
concretizer when bootstrapping clingo. In that case
only the old concretizer is available.
* Add a schema for bootstrapping methods
Two fields have been added to bootstrap.yaml:
"sources" which lists the methods available for
bootstrapping software
"trusted" which records if a source is trusted or not
A subcommand has been added to "spack bootstrap" to list
the sources currently available.
* Methods used for bootstrapping are configurable from bootstrap:sources
The function that tries to ensure a given Python module
is importable now tries bootstrapping methods in the same
order as they are defined in `bootstrap.yaml`
* Permit to trust/untrust bootstrapping methods
* Add binary tests for MacOS, Ubuntu
* Add documentation
* Add a note on bash
- Change config from the undocumented `use_curl: true/false` to `url_fetch_method: urllib/curl`.
- Documentation of `url_fetch_method` in `defaults/config.yaml`
- Default fetch option explicitly set to `urllib` for users who may not have curl on their system
To upgrade from `use_curl` to `url_fetch_method`, run `spack config update config`
* pbs: new virtual package
Some of our clusters have an older installation of
libtorque and tm.h that are *not* from OpenPBS. Using the current
openpbs dependency for openmpi causes concretization errors due to
restrictions on older python and hwloc requirements that don't apply,
even with an external non-buildable installation.
The new 'torque' bundle package allows users to point to that external
installation without problems.

linkage and original tool names.
* Remove trailing white space and import of glob package not used.
* Leave BUILD_TESTING set to default which is ON.
* Remove post_install code to install only one version of tools because
some dependent packages running tests in e4s testing are using
h5diff-shared. Keep both tools versions for now.
* No longer need to import os.
This adds a package for `irep`, a tool for reading `lua` input decks from
Fortran, C, and C++.
`irep` can be built with either `lua` or `luajit`. To address this, we also add
a virtual package for lua called `lua-lang`. `luajit` isn't, by default, a drop-in
replacement for `lua`, but we add a `+lualinks` variant to it that adds symlinks
that make it behave like `lua@5.1`. With this variant enabled, it provides the
`lua-lang` virtual. `lua` always provides `lua-lang`.
- [x] add `irep` package
- [x] add `+lualinks` variant to `lua-luajit`
- [x] create `lua-lang` virtual, provided by `lua` and `luajit+lualinks`

Currently, module configurations are inconsistent because modulefiles are generated with the configs for the active environment, but are shared among all environments (and spack outside any environment).
This PR fixes that by allowing Spack environments (or other spack config scopes) to define additional sets of modules to generate. Each set of modules can enable either lmod or tcl modules, and contains all of the previously available module configuration. The user defines the name of each module set -- the set configured in Spack by default is named "default", and is the one returned by module manipulation commands in the absence of user intervention.
As part of this change, the module roots configuration moved from the config section to inside each module configuration.
Additionally, it adds a feature that the modulefiles for an environment can be configured to be relative to an environment view rather than the underlying prefix. This will not be enabled by default, as it should only be enabled within an environment and for non-default views constructed with separate projections per-spec.
Spack's source mirror was previously in a plain old S3 bucket. That will still
work, but we can do better. This switches to AWS's CloudFront CDN for hosting
the mirror.
CloudFront is 16x faster (or more) than the old bucket.
- [x] change mirror to https://mirror.spack.io

* Make -j flag less exceptional
The -j flag in spack behaves differently from make, ctest, ninja, etc,
because it caps the number of jobs to an arbitrary number 16.
Spack will behave like other tools if `spack install` uses a reasonable
default, and `spack install -j <num>` *overrides* that default.
This will be particularly useful for Spack usage outside of a traditional
HPC context and for HPC centers that encourage users to compile on
login nodes with many cores instead of on compute nodes, which has
become increasingly common as individual nodes have more cores.
This maintains the existing default value of min(num_cpus, 16). However,
as it is right now, Spack does a poor job at determining the number of
cpus on linux, since it doesn't take cgroups into account. This is
particularly problematic when using distributed builds with slurm. This PR
also introduces `spack.util.cpus.cpus_available()` to consolidate
knowledge on determining the number of available cores, and improves
core detection for linux. This should also improve core detection for Docker/
Kubernetes, which also use cgroups.
Drops:
* C_INCLUDE_PATH
* CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH
* LIBRARY_PATH
* INCLUDE
We already decided to use C_INCLUDE_PATH, CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH, INCLUDE over CPATH here:
https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/14749
However, none of these flags apply to Fortran on Linux. So for consistency it seems better to make the user use -I and -L flags by hand or through pkgconfig.
* Procedure to deprecate old versions of software
* Add documentation
* Fix bug in logic
* Update tab completion
* Deprecate legacy packages
* Deprecate old mxnet as well
* More explicit docs
libuuid is currently contained in util-linux, libuuid and uuid. This
change introduces a new virtual provider `uuid` and renames the existing
`uuid` package to `ossp-uuid`.
util-linux's libuuid is provided in the form of a separate package
util-linux-uuid to make sure that packages depending on uuid and
util-linux can use a separate uuid implementation, which the concretizer
does not allow if libuuid is contained in util-linux.
Users can add test() methods to their packages to run smoke tests on
installations with the new `spack test` command (the old `spack test` is
now `spack unit-test`). spack test is environment-aware, so you can
`spack install` an environment and then run `spack test run` to run smoke
tests on all of its packages. Historical test logs can be perused with
`spack test results`. Generic smoke tests for MPI implementations, C,
C++, and Fortran compilers as well as specific smoke tests for 18
packages.
Inside the test method, individual tests can be run separately (and
continue to run best-effort after a test failure) using the `run_test`
method. The `run_test` method encapsulates finding test executables,
running and checking return codes, checking output, and error handling.
This handles the following trickier aspects of testing with direct
support in Spack's package API:
- [x] Caching source or intermediate build files at build time for
use at test time.
- [x] Test dependencies,
- [x] packages that require a compiler for testing (such as library only
packages).
See the packaging guide for more details on using Spack testing support.
Included is support for package.py files for virtual packages. This does
not change the Spack interface, but is a major change in internals.

Since #11598 sbang has been installed within the install_tree. This doesn’t play
nicely with install_tree padding, since sbang can’t do its job if it is installed in a
long path (this is the whole point of sbang).
This PR changes the padding specification. Instead of $padding inside paths,
we now have a separate `padding:` field in the `install_tree` configuration.
Previously, the `install_tree` looked like this:
```
/path/to/opt/spack_padding_padding_padding_padding_padding/
bin/
sbang
.spack-db/
...
linux-rhel7-x86_64/
...
```
```
This PR updates things to look like this:
/path/to/opt/
bin/
sbang
spack_padding_padding_padding_padding_padding/
.spack-db/
...
linux-rhel7-x86_64/
...
So padding is added at the start of all install prefixes *within* the unpadded
root. The database and all installations still go under the padded root.
This ensures that `sbang` is in the shorted possible path while also allowing
us to make long paths for relocatable binaries.

The YAML config for paths and modules of external packages has
changed: the new format allows a single spec to load multiple
modules. Spack will automatically convert from the old format
when reading the configs (the updates do not add new essential
properties, so this change in Spack is backwards-compatible).
With this update, Spack cannot modify existing configs/environments
without updating them (e.g. “spack config add” will fail if the
configuration is in a format that predates this PR). The user is
prompted to do this explicitly and commands are provided. All
config scopes can be updated at once. Each environment must be
updated one at a time.
* Separate Apple Clang from LLVM Clang
Apple Clang is a compiler of its own. All places
referring to "-apple" suffix have been updated.
* Hack to use a dash in 'apple-clang'

This commit removes the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH variable from the default
modules.yaml for darwin. The rationale behind deleting this
environment variable is that paths in this environment variable take
precedence over the default locations of libraries (usually the
install path of the library), which can lead to linking errors in some
circumstances. For example, executables intended to link with Apple's
system BLAS and LAPACK will instead link to a spack-installed
implementation (e.g., OpenBLAS), causing runtime errors.
These errors are resolved by instead relying on paths set in
DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH, which is lower in precedence than default
locations of libraries.
Spack currently cannot run as a background process uninterrupted because some of the logging functions used in the install method (especially to create the dynamic verbosity toggle with the v key) cause the OS to issue a SIGTTOU to Spack when it's backgrounded.
This PR puts the necessary gatekeeping in place so that Spack doesn't do anything that will cause a signal to stop the process when operating as a background process.

Every path in CPATH is equivalent to a -I path to the compiler,
while every path in *_INCLUDE_PATH is equivalent to -isystem.
The latter avoids the noise due to warnings coming from 3rd party
libraries that a project depends on.
Added INCLUDE env variable (Intel Fortran, .mod files)
connect_timeout can be used to increase the time Spack waits for the
server to answer. This can be used to work around slow connections or
servers.

## Background
Spack provides the ability to enable/disable parallel builds through two options: package `parallel` and configuration `build_jobs`. This PR changes the algorithm to allow multiple, simultaneous processes to coordinate the installation of the same spec (and specs with overlapping dependencies.).
The `parallel` (boolean) property sets the default for its package though the value can be overridden in the `install` method.
Spack's current parallel builds are limited to build tools supporting `jobs` arguments (e.g., `Makefiles`). The number of jobs actually used is calculated as`min(config:build_jobs, # cores, 16)`, which can be overridden in the package or on the command line (i.e., `spack install -j <# jobs>`).
This PR adds support for distributed (single- and multi-node) parallel builds. The goals of this work include improving the efficiency of installing packages with many dependencies and reducing the repetition associated with concurrent installations of (dependency) packages.
## Approach
### File System Locks
Coordination between concurrent installs of overlapping packages to a Spack instance is accomplished through bottom-up dependency DAG processing and file system locks. The runs can be a combination of interactive and batch processes affecting the same file system. Exclusive prefix locks are required to install a package while shared prefix locks are required to check if the package is installed.
Failures are communicated through a separate exclusive prefix failure lock, for concurrent processes, combined with a persistent store, for separate, related build processes. The resulting file contains the failing spec to facilitate manual debugging.
### Priority Queue
Management of dependency builds changed from reliance on recursion to use of a priority queue where the priority of a spec is based on the number of its remaining uninstalled dependencies.
Using a queue required a change to dependency build exception handling with the most visible issue being that the `install` method *must* install something in the prefix. Consequently, packages can no longer get away with an install method consisting of `pass`, for example.
## Caveats
- This still only parallelizes a single-rooted build. Multi-rooted installs (e.g., for environments) are TBD in a future PR.
Tasks:
- [x] Adjust package lock timeout to correspond to value used in the demo
- [x] Adjust database lock timeout to reduce contention on startup of concurrent
`spack install <spec>` calls
- [x] Replace (test) package's `install: pass` methods with file creation since post-install
`sanity_check_prefix` will otherwise error out with `Install failed .. Nothing was installed!`
- [x] Resolve remaining existing test failures
- [x] Respond to alalazo's initial feedback
- [x] Remove `bin/demo-locks.py`
- [x] Add new tests to address new coverage issues
- [x] Replace built-in package's `def install(..): pass` to "install" something
(i.e., only `apple-libunwind`)
- [x] Increase code coverage
Add a configuration option to suppress gpg warnings during binary
package verification. This only suppresses warnings: a gpg failure
will still fail the install. This allows users who have already
explicitly trusted the gpg key they are using to avoid seeing
repeated warnings that it is self-signed.
Add a new entry in `config.yaml`:
config:
shared_linking: 'rpath'
If this variable is set to `rpath` (the default) Spack will set RPATH in ELF binaries. If set to `runpath` it will set RUNPATH.
Details:
* Spack cc wrapper explicitly adds `--disable-new-dtags` when linking
* cc wrapper also strips `--enable-new-dtags` from the compile line
when disabling (and vice versa)
* We specifically do *not* add any dtags flags on macOS, which uses
Mach-O binaries, not ELF, so there's no RUNPATH)
While the build environment already takes share/pkgconfig into account,
the generated module files etc. only consider lib/pkgconfig and
lib64/pkgconfig.
Dotkit is being used only at a few sites and has been deprecated on new
machines. This commit removes all the code that provide support for the
generation of dotkit module files.
A new validator named "deprecatedProperties" has been added to the
jsonschema validators. It permits to prompt a warning message or exit
with an error if a property that has been marked as deprecated is
encountered.
* Removed references to dotkit in the docs
* Removed references to dotkit in setup-env-test.sh
* Added a unit test for the 'deprecatedProperties' schema validator
* When cleaning the stage root, only remove directories that appear
to be used for staging Spack packages. Previously Spack was clearing
all directories in the stage root, which could remove content not
related to Spack if the user chose a staging root which contains
files/directories not managed by Spack.
* The documentation is updated with warnings about choosing a stage
directory that is only managed by Spack (although generally the
check added in this PR for "spack clean" should avoid removing
content that was not created by Spack)
* The default stage directory (in config.yaml) is now
$tempdir/$user/spack-stage and the logic is updated to omit the
$user portion of this path if $tempdir already contains a $user
directory.
* When creating stage root assign user read/write permissions to all
directories in the path under $user. Previously Spack was assigning
the permissions of the first existing parent directory
Fixes#11163
The goal of this work is to simplify stage directory structures by eliminating use of symbolic links. This means, among other things, that` $spack/var/spack/stage` will no longer be the core staging directory. Instead, the first accessible `config:build_stage` path will be used.
Spack will no longer automatically append `spack-stage` (or the like) to configured build stage directories so the onus of distinguishing the directory from other work -- so the other work is not automatically removed with a `spack clean` operation -- falls on the user.
The original packaging, with openfoam as a virtual and with
openfoam-com, openfoam-org and openfoam-extend as
providers, adds an obfuscation layer without any benefit.
- Rename `openfoam-com` to `openfoam`, and remove the
`openfoam` virtual package.
* config:build_jobs now controls the number of parallel jobs to spawn during
builds, but cannot ever exceed the number of cores on the machine.
* The default is set to 16 or the number of available cores, whatever
is lowest.
* Updated docs to reflect the changes done to limit parallel builds
* Add Fujitsu compiler to Spack.
* Fixes for flake8
* Chenges location of FCC to subdirectory called case-insensitive

This spack command adds a new schema for a file which describes the
builder containers available, along with the compilers availabe on
each builder. The release-jobs command then generates the .gitlab-ci.yml
file by first expanding the release spec set, concretizing each spec
(in an appropriate docker container if --this-machine-only argument is
not provided on command line), and then combining and staging all the
concrete specs as jobs to be run by gitlab.
* Remove /nfs/tmp2 from default configuration
* /nfs/tmp2 is going away from LC... and doesn’t exist for the rest of the world.
* update documentation to remove /nfs/tmp2 as well
* Introduce FFTW2 and FFT3 providers for Intel-MKL and FFTW Spack packages.
* make fftw default package for fftw-api virtual package
* virtual package test assertion now provides location of default virtual packages.
* Change name of virtual package to fftw-api and used versioned interface.
* Add a build_language config.yaml option which controls the language
of compiler messages
* build_language defaults to "C", in which case the compiler messages
will be in English. This allows Spack log parsing to detect and
highlight error messages (since the regular expressions to find
error messages are in English)
* The user can use the default language in their environment by setting
the build_language config variable to null or ''
Spack can now be configured to assign permissions to the files installed by a package.
In the `packages.yaml` file under `permissions`, the attributes `read`, `write`, and `group` control the package permissions. These attributes can be set per-package, or for all packages under `all`. If permissions are set under `all` and for a specific package, the package-specific settings take precedence. The `read` and `write` attributes take one of `user`, `group`, and `world`.
packages:
all:
permissions:
write: group
group: spack
my_app:
permissions:
read: group
group: my_team
Fixes#9166
This is intended to reduce errors related to lock timeouts by making
the following changes:
* Improves error reporting when acquiring a lock fails (addressing
#9166) - there is no longer an attempt to release the lock if an
acquire fails
* By default locks taken on individual packages no longer have a
timeout. This allows multiple spack instances to install overlapping
dependency DAGs. For debugging purposes, a timeout can be added by
setting 'package_lock_timeout' in config.yaml
* Reduces the polling frequency when trying to acquire a lock, to
reduce impact in the case where NFS is overtaxed. A simple
adaptive strategy is implemented, which starts with a polling
interval of .1 seconds and quickly increases to .5 seconds
(originally it would poll up to 10^5 times per second).
A test is added to check the polling interval generation logic.
* The timeout for Spack's whole-database lock (e.g. for managing
information about installed packages) is increased from 60s to
120s
* Users can configure the whole-database lock timeout using the
'db_lock_timout' setting in config.yaml
Generally, Spack locks (those created using spack.llnl.util.lock.Lock)
now have no timeout by default
This does not address implementations of NFS that do not support file
locking, or detect cases where services that may be required
(nfslock/statd) aren't running.
Users may want to be able to more-aggressively release locks when
they know they are the only one using their Spack instance, and they
encounter lock errors after a crash (e.g. a remote terminal disconnect
mentioned in #8915).
This commit adds 'libunwind' as the default 'unwind' provider in
spack. This preference should be overridden by the
darwin/packages.yaml file on macOS. Continues the changes discussed in
This commit adds default unwind providers to the default packages.yaml
for darwin. Compiler versions are supplied with the apple-unwind
package so that apple-unwind is only used with Apple's clang fork, and
not with LLVM's clang.
If the user sets "ccache: true" in spack's config.yaml, Spack will use an available
ccache executable when compiling c/c++ code. This feature is disabled by default
(i.e. "ccache: false") and the documentation is updated with how to enable
ccache support
- spack.util.lock behaves the same as llnl.util.lock, but Lock._lock and
Lock._unlock do nothing.
- can be disabled with a control variable.
- configuration options can enable/disable locking:
- `locks` option in spack configuration controls whether Spack will use filesystem locks or not.
- `-l` and `-L` command-line options can force-disable or force-enable locking.
- Spack will check for group- and world-writability before disabling
locks, and it will not allow a group- or world-writable instance to
have locks disabled.
- update documentation
