This commit fixes a subtle bug that may occur when
a package is a "possible_provider" of a virtual but
no "provides_virtual" can be deduced. In that case
the cardinality constraint on "provides_virtual"
may arbitrarily assign a package the role of provider
even if the constraints for it to be one are not fulfilled.
The fix reworks the logic around three concepts:
- "possible_provider": a package may provide a virtual if some constraints are met
- "provides_virtual": a package meet the constraints to provide a virtual
- "provider": a package selected to provide a virtual
Spack packages can now fetch versions from CVS repositories. Note
this fetch mechanism is unsafe unless using :extssh:. Most public
CVS repositories use an insecure protocol implemented as part of CVS.
Here we are adding an install_times.json into the spack install metadata folder.
We record a total, global time, along with the times for each phase. The type
of phase or install start / end is included (e.g., build or fail)

Add a new "spack audit" command. This command can check for issues
with configuration or with packages and is intended to help a
user debug a failed Spack build.
In some cases the reported issues are always errors but are too
costly to check for (e.g. packages that specify missing variants on
dependencies). In other cases the issues may be legitimate but
uncommon usage of Spack and we want to be sure the user intended the
behavior (e.g. duplicate compiler definitions).
Audits are grouped by theme, and for now the two themes are packages
and configuration. For example you can run all available audits
on packages with "spack audit packages". It is intended that in
the future users will be able to define their own audits.
The package audits are good candidates for running in package_sanity
(i.e. they could catch bugs in user-submitted packages before they
are merged) but that is left for a later PR.
This should get us most of the way there to support using monitor during a spack container build, for both Singularity and Docker. Some quick notes:
### Docker
Docker works by way of BUILDKIT and being able to specify --secret. What this means is that you can prefix a line with a mount of type secret as follows:
```bash
# Install the software, remove unnecessary deps
RUN --mount=type=secret,id=su --mount=type=secret,id=st cd /opt/spack-environment && spack env activate . && export SPACKMON_USER=$(cat /run/secrets/su) && export SPACKMON_TOKEN=$(cat /run/secrets/st) && spack install --monitor --fail-fast && spack gc -y
```
Where the id for one or more secrets corresponds to the file mounted at `/run/secrets/<name>`. So, for example, to build this container with su (spackmon user) and sv (spackmon token) defined I would export them on my host and do:
```bash
$ DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1 docker build --network="host" --secret id=st,env=SPACKMON_TOKEN --secret id=su,env=SPACKMON_USER -t spack/container .
```
And when we add `env` to the secret definition that tells the build to look for the secret with id "st" in the environment variable `SPACKMON_TOKEN` for example.
If the user is building locally with a local spack monitor, we also need to set the `--network` to be the host, otherwise you can't connect to it (a la isolation of course.)
## Singularity
Singularity doesn't have as nice an ability to clearly specify secrets, so (hoping this eventually gets implemented) what I'm doing now is providing the user instructions to write the credentials to a file, add it to the container to source, and remove when done.
## Tags
Note that the tags PR https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/23712 will need to be merged before `--monitor-tags` will actually work because I'm checking for the attribute (that doesn't exist yet):
```bash
"tags": getattr(args, "monitor_tags", None)
```
So when that PR is merged to update the argument group, it will work here, and I can either update the PR here to not check if the attribute is there (it will be) or open another one in the case this PR is already merged.
Finally, I added a bunch of documetation for how to use monitor with containerize. I say "mostly working" because I can't do a full test run with this new version until the container base is built with the updated spack (the request to the monitor server for an env install was missing so I had to add it here).

When running executables from build dependencies, we want to avoid that
`LD_PRELOAD` and `DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES` any of their shared libs build
by spack with system libraries.
this will first support uploads for spack monitor, and eventually could be
used for other kinds of spack uploads

* extending example for buildcaches
I was attempting to create a local build cache from a directory, and I found the
docs for both buildcaches and mirrors, but did not connect the docs that the
url variable could be the local filesystem variable. I am extending the docs for
buildcaches with an example of creating and interacting with one on the filesystem
because I suspect other users will run into this need and possibly not find what
they are looking for.

It is currently kind of confusing to the reader to distinguish spack buildcache install
and spack install, and it is not clear how to use a build cache once a mirror is added.
Hopefully this little big of description can help (and I hope I got it right!)

Use the 'version_yearlike' attribute instead of 'version' to
check if the SPACK_COMPILER_EXTRA_RPATHS should be set to include
the built-in 'libfabrics'.
When using the bare 'version', the comparison is wrong when
building with 'intel-parallel-studio', which has the version
format '<edition>.YYYY.Nupdate', due to the leading '<edition>'.
Extracting specs for the result of a solve has been factored
as a method into the asp.Result class. The method account for
virtual specs being passed as initial requests.
Minimizing compiler mismatches in the DAG and preferring newer
versions of packages are now higher priority than trying to use as
many default values as possible in multi-valued variants.
Since the module roots were removed from the config file,
`--print-shell-vars` cannot find the module roots anymore. Fix it by
using the new `root_path` function. Moreover, the roots for lmod and
modules seems to have been flipped by accident.
The VALID_VERSION regex didn't check that the version string was
completely valid, only that a prefix of it was. This version ensures
the entire string represents a valid version.
This makes a few related changes.
1. Make the SEGMENT_REGEX identify *which* arm it matches by what groups
are populated, including whether it's a string or int component or a
separator all at once.
2. Use the updated regex to parse the input once with a findall rather
than twice, once with findall and once with split, since the version
components and separators can be distinguished by their group status.
3. Rather than "convert to int, on exception stay string," if the int
group is set then convert to int, if not then construct an instance
of the VersionStrComponent class
4. VersionStrComponent now implements all of the special string
comparison logic as part of its __lt__ and __eq__ methods to deal
with infinity versions and also overloads comparison with integers.
5. Version now uses direct tuple comparison since it has no per-element
special logic outside the VersionStrComponent class.

Passing absolute paths from pipeline generate job to downstream rebuild jobs
causes problems when the CI_PROJECT_DIR is not the same for the generate and
rebuild jobs. This has happened, for example, when gitlab checks out the
project into a runner-specific directory and different runners are chosen
for the generate and rebuild jobs.
* ensure that the stage root exists for `spack stage -p <PATH>`
* add test to verify `spack stage -p <PATH>` works!
* move out shared tmp staging path setup to a fixture to fix the test
* Simplified the spack.util.gpg implementation
All the classes defined in this Python module,
which were previously used to construct singleton
instances, have been removed in favor of four
global variables. These variables are initialized
lazily, like before.
The API of the module has been unchanged for the
most part. A few tests have been modified to use
the new global names.
For me the buildcache force overwrite option does not work. It tries to
delete a file, but errors with a key error, apparently because the
leading / has to be removed.
* util.tty.log: read up to 100 lines if ready
Rework to read up to 100 lines from the captured stdin as long as data
is ready to be read immediately. Adds a helper function to poll with
`select` for ready data. This showed a roughly 5-10x perf improvement
for high-rate writes through the logger with relatively short lines.
* util.tty.log: Defer flushes to end of ready reads
Rather than flush per line, flush per set of reads. Since this is a
non-blocking loop, the total perceived wait is short.
* util.tty.log: only scan each line once, usually
Rather than always find all control characters then substitute them all,
use `subn` to count the number of control characters replaced. Only if
control characters exist find out what they are. This could be made
truly single pass with sub with a function, but it's a more intrusive
change and this got 99%ish of the performance improvement (roughly
another 2x in some cases).
* util.tty.log: remove check for `readable`
Python < 3 does not support a readable check on streams, should not be
necessary here since we control the only use and it's explicitly a
stream to be read.
This PR allows users to `--export`, `--export-secret`, or both to export GPG keys
from Spack. The docs are updated that include a warning that this usually does not
need to be done.
This addresses an issue brought up in slack, and also represented in #14721.

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.
### Overview
The goal of this PR is to make gitlab pipeline builds (especially build failures) more reproducible outside of the pipeline environment. The two key changes here which aim to improve reproducibility are:
1. Produce a `spack.lock` during pipeline generation which is passed to child jobs via artifacts. This concretized environment is used both by generated child jobs as well as uploaded as an artifact to be used when reproducing the build locally.
2. In the `spack ci rebuild` command, if a spec needs to be rebuilt from source, do this by generating and running an `install.sh` shell script which is then also uploaded as a job artifact to be run during local reproduction.
To make it easier to take advantage of improved build reproducibility, this PR also adds a new subcommand, `spack ci reproduce-build`, which, given a url to job artifacts:
- fetches and unzips the job artifacts to a local directory
- looks for the generated pipeline yaml and parses it to find details about the job to reproduce
- attempts to provide a copy of the same version of spack used in the ci build
- if the ci build used a docker image, the command prints a `docker run` command you can run to get an interactive shell for reproducing the build
#### Some highlights
One consequence of this change will be much smaller pipeline yaml files. By encoding the concrete environment in a `spack.lock` and passing to child jobs via artifacts, we will no longer need to encode the concrete root of each spec and write it into the job variables, greatly reducing the size of the generated pipeline yaml.
Additionally `spack ci rebuild` output (stdout/stderr) is no longer internally redirected to a log file, so job output will appear directly in the gitlab job trace. With debug logging turned on, this often results in log files getting truncated because they exceed the maximum amount of log output gitlab allows. If this is a problem, you still have the option to `tee` command output to a file in the within the artifacts directory, as now each generated job exposes a `user_data` directory as an artifact, which you can fill with whatever you want in your custom job scripts.
There are some changes to be aware of in how pipelines should be set up after this PR:
#### Pipeline generation
Because the pipeline generation job now writes a `spack.lock` artifact to be consumed by generated downstream jobs, `spack ci generate` takes a new option `--artifacts-root`, inside which it creates a `concrete_env` directory to place the lockfile. This artifacts root directory is also where the `user_data` directory will live, in case you want to generate any custom artifacts. If you do not provide `--artifacts-root`, the default is for it to create a `jobs_scratch_dir` within your `CI_PROJECT_DIR` (a gitlab predefined environment variable) or whatever is your current working directory if that variable isn't set. Here's the diff of the PR testing `.gitlab-ci.yml` taking advantage of the new option:
```

Notice how we replaced the specific pointer to the generated pipeline file with its containing folder, the same folder we passed as `--artifacts-root`. This way anything in that directory (the generated pipeline yaml, as well as the concrete environment directory containing the `spack.lock`) will be uploaded as an artifact and available to the downstream jobs.
#### Rebuild jobs
Rebuild jobs now must activate the concrete environment created by `spack ci generate` and provided via artifacts. When the pipeline is generated, a directory called `concrete_environment` is created within the artifacts root directory, and this is where the `spack.lock` file is written to be passed to the generated rebuild jobs. The artifacts root directory can be specified using the `--artifacts-root` option to `spack ci generate`, otherwise, it is assumed to be `$CI_PROJECT_DIR`. The directory containing the concrete environment files (`spack.yaml` and `spack.lock`) is then passed to generated child jobs via the `SPACK_CONCRETE_ENV_DIR` variable in the generated pipeline yaml file.
When you don't provide custom `script` sections in your `mappings` within the `gitlab-ci` section of your `spack.yaml`, the default behavior of rebuild jobs is now to change into `SPACK_CONCRETE_ENV_DIR` and activate that environment. If you do provide custom rebuild scripts in your `spack.yaml`, be aware those scripts should do the same thing: assume `SPACK_CONCRETE_ENV_DIR` contains the concretized environment to activate. No other changes to existing custom rebuild scripts should be required as a result of this PR.
As mentioned above, one key change made in this PR is the generation of the `install.sh` script by the rebuild jobs, as that same script is both run by the CI rebuild job as well as exported as an artifact to aid in subsequent attempts to reproduce the build outside of CI. The generated `install.sh` script contains only a single `spack install` command with arguments computed by `spack ci rebuild`. If the install fails, the job trace in gitlab will contain instructions on how to reproduce the build locally:
```
To reproduce this build locally, run:
spack ci reproduce-build https://gitlab.next.spack.io/api/v4/projects/7/jobs/240607/artifacts [--working-dir <dir>]
If this project does not have public pipelines, you will need to first:
export GITLAB_PRIVATE_TOKEN=<generated_token>
... then follow the printed instructions.
```
When run locally, the `spack ci reproduce-build` command shown above will download and process the job artifacts from gitlab, then print out instructions you can copy-paste to run a local reproducer of the CI job.
This PR includes a few other changes to the way pipelines work, see the documentation on pipelines for more details.
This PR erelies on
~- [ ] #23194 to be able to refer to uninstalled specs by DAG hash~
EDIT: that is going to take longer to come to fruition, so for now, we will continue to install specs represented by a concrete `spec.yaml` file on disk.
- [x] #22657 to support install a single spec already present in the active, concrete environment
- [x] add `in_buildcache` field to DB records to indicate what parts of an index,
which includes roots and dependencies, are in the buildcache.
- [x] add `mark()` method to DB for setting values on single nodes of the DAG.
I would like to be able to export (and save and then load programatically)
spack blame metadata, so this commit adds a spack blame --json argument,
along with developer docs for it
