Users expect that changes to the externals sections in packages.yaml config apply immediately, but reuse concretization caused this not to be the case. With this commit, the concretizer is only allowed to reuse externals previously imported from config if identical config exists.
This PR adds a flag `--tag/-t` to `buildcache push`, which you can use like
```
$ spack mirror add my-oci-registry oci://example.com/hello/world
$ spack -e my_env buildcache push --base-image ubuntu:22.04 --tag my_custom_tag my-oci-registry
```
and lets users ship a full, installed environment as a minimal container image where each image layer is one Spack package, on top of a base image of choice. The image can then be used as
```
$ docker run -it --rm example.com/hello/world:my_custom_tag
```
Apart from environments, users can also pick arbitrary installed spec from their database, for instance:
```
$ spack buildcache push --base-image ubuntu:22.04 --tag some_specs my-oci-registry gcc@12 cmake
$ docker run -it --rm example.com/hello/world:some_specs
```
It has many advantages over `spack containerize`:
1. No external tools required (`docker`, `buildah`, ...)
2. Creates images from locally installed Spack packages (No need to rebuild inside `docker build`, where troubleshooting build failures is notoriously hard)
3. No need for multistage builds (Spack just tarballs existing installations of runtime deps)
4. Reduced storage size / composability: when pushing multiple environments with common specs, container image layers are shared.
5. Automatic build cache: later `spack install` of the env elsewhere speeds up since the containerized environment is a build cache
* add trim function to `Spec` and `--ignore` option to 'spack diff'
Allows user to compare two specs while ignoring the sub-DAG of a particular dependency, e.g.
spack diff --ignore=mpi --ignore=zlib trilinos/abcdef trilinos/fedcba
to focus on differences closer to the root of the software stack
Sometimes env variables computed in `setup_run_environment` depend on tests
w.r.t. files in `spec.prefix`, but Spack temporarily projects `spec.prefix` to
the view.
This is problematic for two reasons:
1. Some packages iterate over `<prefix>/bin`: they expect only the current
package's executables, but find all linked in the view, leading to false
positives.
2. Some packages test for `os.path.islink(...)`, which is always true in a view
`gcc` is an example that does both.
This PR lets Spack compute the environment modifications using the original
prefix, and projects to the view afterwards
Currently, a virtual spec is composed of just a name and a version. When a virtual spec contains other components, such as variants, Spack won't emit warnings or errors but will silently drop them - which is unexpected by users.
This PR changes the default behavior of `spack config get` and `spack config blame`
to print a flattened version of the entire spack configuration, including any active
environment, if the commands are invoked with no section arguments.
The new behavior is used in Gitlab CI to help debug CI configuration, but it can also
be useful when asking for more information in issues, or when simply debugging Spack.
Convert the 'develop' section of an environment to a dedicated configuration section.
This means for example that instead of having to define `develop` specs in the
`spack.yaml`, the environment can `include:` another `develop.yaml` configuration
which specifies which specs should be developed in the environment.
This change is not expected to be disruptive given that existing environment `spack.yaml`
files will conform to the new schema.
(Update 11/28/2023) I have implemented the `develop`/`undevelop` commands in terms
of more-generic modification functions added to the `config` module: `change_or_add`
and `update_all`. It is assumed that the semantics added here (described in 11/18 update)
would be desirable to extend to other config update actions (e.g. adding compilers,
changing package requirements, adding mirrors).
(Update 11/18/2023) I have updated this such that `spack develop`, and
`spack undevelop` to potentially modify all writable scopes, like
https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/41147. https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/35307
will be useful for modifying included scopes, but generally speaking specifying a
`--scope` will not be required for `spack develop`: `spack develop` will add new
develop specs to whatever scope already has develop specs defined, or to the
highest-priority writable scope (which should be the env scope).
TODOs:
- [x] If you `spack undevelop` a package which is mentioned at multiple layers of
configuration, then currently this would only modify one of them. That's not
technically a new issue (has always existed for configuration modification), but
may be confusing to users when presented via an interface other than `spack config set`
- [x] Need to add (or confirm) the ability to modify individual config files by providing
a path (rather than using a scope identifier as a key to retrieve associated config).
- [x] `spack develop` adds new develop specs to the scope that defines them
(potentially skipping higher priority scopes to e.g. augment included scope files)

This PR does several things:
- [x] Allow any character to appear in the quoted values of variants and flags.
- [x] Allow easier passing of quoted flags on the command line, e.g. `cflags="-O2 -g"`.
- [x] Handle quoting better in spec output, using single quotes around double
quotes and vice versa.
- [x] Disallow spaces around `=` and `==` when parsing variants and flags.
## Motivation
This PR is motivated by the issues above and by ORNL's
[tips for launching at scale on Frontier](https://docs.olcf.ornl.gov/systems/frontier_user_guide.html#tips-for-launching-at-scale).
ORNL recommends using `sbcast --send-libs` to broadcast executables and their
libraries to compute nodes when running large jobs (e.g., 80k ranks). For an
executable named `exe`, `sbcast --send-libs` stores the needed libraries in a
directory alongside the executable called `exe_libs`. ORNL recommends pointing
`LD_LIBRARY_PATH` at that directory so that `exe` will find the local libraries and
not overwhelm the filesystem.
There are other ways to mitigate this problem:
* You could build with `RUNPATH` using `spack config add config:shared_linking:type:runpath`,
which would make `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` take precedence over Spack's `RUNPATHs`.
I don't recommend this one because `RUNPATH` can cause many other things to go wrong.
* You could use `spack config add config:shared_linking:bind:true`, added in #31948, which
will greatly reduce the filesystem load for large jobs by pointing `DT_NEEDED` entries in
ELF *directly* at the needed `.so` files instead of relying on `RPATH` search via soname.
I have not experimented with this at 80,000 ranks, but it should help quite a bit.
* You could use [Spindle](https://github.com/hpc/Spindle) (as LLNL does on its machines)
which should transparently fix this without any changes to your executable and without
any need to use `sbcast` or other tools.
But we want to support the `sbcast` use case as well.
## `sbcast` and Spack
Spack's `RPATHs` break the `sbcast` fix because they're considered with higher precedence
than `LD_LIBRARY_PATH`. So Spack applications will still end up hitting the shared filesystem
when searching for libraries. We can avoid this by injecting some `ldflags` in to the build, e.g.,
if were were going to launch, say, `LAMMPS` at scale, we could add another `RPATH`
specifically for use with `sbcast`:
spack install lammps ldflags='-Wl,-rpath=$ORIGIN/lmp_libs'
This will put the `lmp_libs` directory alongside `LAMMPS`'s `lmp` executable first in the
`RPATH`, so it will be searched before any directories on the shared filesystem.
## Issues with quoting
Before this PR, the command above would've errored out for two reasons:
1. `$` wasn't an allowed character in our spec parser.
2. You would've had to double quote the flags to get them to pass through correctly:
spack install lammps ldflags='"-Wl,-rpath=$ORIGIN/lmp_libs"'
This is ugly and I don't think many users will easily figure it out. The behavior was added in
#29282, and it improved parsing of specs passed as a single string, e.g.:
spack install 'lammps ldflags="-Wl,-rpath=$ORIGIN/lmp_libs"'
but a lot of users are naturally going to try to quote arguments *directly* on the command
line, without quoting their entire spec. #29282 used a heuristic to detect unquoted flags
and warn the user, but the warning could be confusing. In particular, if you wrote
`cflags="-O2 -g"` on the command line, it would break the flags up, warn, and tell you
that you could fix the issue by writing `cflags="-O2 -g"` even though you just wrote
that. It's telling you to *quote* that value, but the user has to know to double quote.
## New heuristic for quoted arguments from the CLI
There are only two places where we allow arbitrary quoted strings in specs: flags and
variant values, so this PR adds a simpler heuristic to the CLI parser: if an argument in
`sys.argv` starts with `name=...`, then we assume the whole argument is quoted.
This means you can write:
spack install bzip2 cflags="-O2 -g"
directly on the command line, without multiple levels of quoting. This also works:
spack install 'bzip2 cflags="-O2 -g"'
The only place where this heuristic runs into ambiguity is if you attempt to pass
anonymous specs that start with `name=...` as one large string. e.g., this will be
interpreted as one large flag value:
spack find 'cflags="-O2 -g" ~bar +baz'
This sets `cflags` to `"-O2 -g" ~bar +baz`, which is likely not what you wanted. You
can fix this easily by either removing the quotes:
spack find cflags="-O2 -g" ~bar +baz
Or by adding a space at the start, which has the same effect:
spack find ' cflags="-O2 -g" ~bar +baz'
You may wonder why we don't just look for quotes inside of flag arguments, and the
reason is that you *might* want them there. If you are passing arguments like:
spack install zlib cppflags="-D DEBUG_MSG1='quick fox' -D DEBUG_MSG2='lazy dog'"
You *need* the quotes there. So we've opted for one potentially confusing, but easily
fixed outcome vs. limiting what you can put in your quoted strings.
## Quotes in formatted spec output
In addition to being more lenient about characters accepted in quoted strings, this PR fixes
up spec formatting a bit. We now format quoted strings in specs with single quotes, unless
the string has a single quote in it, in which case we JSON-escape the string (i.e., we add
`\` before `"` and `\`).
zlib cflags='-D FOO="bar"'
zlib cflags="-D FOO='bar'"
zlib cflags="-D FOO='bar' BAR=\"baz\""
MySQL was performing a core API call to `Spec.flat_dependencies`
when setting up the build environment. This function is an
implementation detail of the old concretizer, where multiple nodes
from the same package are not allowed.
This PR uses a more idiomatic way to check if "python" is
in the DAG.
For reference, see #11356 to check why the call was introduced.
