* 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`.
Spack currently allows dependencies to be concretized for an
architecture incompatible with the root. This commit adds rules
to make this situation impossible by design.
* Extract the MetaPathFinder and Loaders for packages in their own classes
https://peps.python.org/pep-0451/
Currently, RepoPath and Repo implement the (deprecated) interface of
MetaPathFinder (find_module) and of Loader (load_module). This commit
extracts both of them and places the code in their own classes.
The MetaPathFinder interface is updated to contain both the deprecated
"find_module" (for Python 2.7 support) and the recommended "find_spec".
Update of the Loader interface is deferred at a subsequent commit.
* Move the lines to be prepended inside "RepoLoader"
Also adjust the naming of a few variables too
* Remove spack.util.imp, since code is only used in spack.repo
* Remove support from loading Python modules Python > 3 but < 3.5
* Remove `Repo._create_namespace`
This function was interacting badly with the MetaPathFinder
and causing issues with "normal" imports. Removing the
function allows to do things like:
```python
import spack.pkg.builtin.mpich
cls = spack.pkg.builtin.mpich.Mpich
```
* Remove code needed to trigger the Singleton evaluation
The finder is coded in a way to trigger the Singleton,
so we don't need external code now that we register it
at module level into `sys.meta_path`.
* Add unit tests
Some servers require `User-Agent` to be set, and otherwise error with
access denied. One such example is mpich.
To fix this, set `User-Agent: Spackbot/[version]` as a header.
Apparently by convention, it should include the word `bot`.
#27021 broke fetching for CVS-based packages because:
- The mirror logic was using URL parsing to extract a path from the
CVS repository location
- #27021 added sanity checks to enforce that strings passed to the
URL parser were actually URLs
This replaces the call to "url_util.parse" with logic that is
customized for CVS. This implies that VCSFetchStrategy should
rename the "url_attr" attribute to something more generic, but
that should be handled separately.
Allow declaring possible values for variants with an associated condition. If the variant takes one of those values, the condition is imposed as a further constraint.
The idea of this PR is to implement part of the mechanisms needed for modeling [packages with multiple build-systems]( https://github.com/spack/seps/pull/3). After this PR the build-system directive can be implemented as:
```python
variant(
'build-system',
default='cmake',
values=(
'autotools',
conditional('cmake', when='@X.Y:')
),
description='...',
)
```
Modifications:
- [x] Allow conditional possible values in variants
- [x] Add a unit-test for the feature
- [x] Add documentation
* tests for rewiring pure specs to spliced specs
* relocate text, binaries, and links
* using llnl.util.symlink for windows compat.
Note: This does not include CLI hooks for relocation.

- Add variants for various common build flags, including support for both versions of the Racket VM environment.
- Prevent `-j` flags to `make`, which has been known to cause problems with Racket builds.
- Prefer the minimal release to improve install times. Bells and whistles carry their own runtime dependencies and should be installed via `raco`. An enterprising user may even create a `RacketPackage` class to make spack aware of `raco` installed packages.
- Match the official version numbering scheme.
Update "spack external find --all" to also find library-only packages.
A Package can add a ".libraries" attribute, which is a list of regular
expressions to use to find libraries associated with the Package.
"spack external find --all" will search LD_LIBRARY_PATH for potential
libraries.
This PR adds examples for NCCL, RCCL, and hipblas packages. These
examples specify the suffix ".so" for the regular expressions used
to find libraries, so generally are only useful for detecting library
packages on Linux.
Do not prompt user with checksum warning when using git commit hashes
as versions. Spack was incorrectly reporting this as a potential
problem: it would display a prompt asking the user whether they
want to proceed if Spack was running in a terminal, or it would
terminate the running instance of Spack if running as part of a
script.
* Add pl2bat to PATH: Windows on Perl requires the script pl2bat.bat
and Perl to be available to the installer via the PATH. The build
and dependent environments of Perl on Windows have the install
prefix bin added to the PATH.
* symlink with win32file module instead of using Executable to
call mklink (mklink is a shell function and so is not accessible
in this manner).
We've previously generated CI pipelines for PRs, and they rebuild any packages that don't have
a binary in an existing build cache. The assumption we were making was that ALL prior merged
builds would be in cache, but due to the way we do security in the pipeline, they aren't. `develop`
pipelines can take a while to catch up with the latest PRs, and while it does that, there may be a
bunch of redundant builds on PRs that duplicate things being rebuilt on `develop`. Until we can
do better caching of PR builds, we'll have this problem.
We can do better in PRs, though, by *only* rebuilding things in the CI environment that are actually
touched by the PR. This change computes exactly what packages are changed by a PR branch and
*only* includes those packages' dependents and dependencies in the generated pipeline. Other
as-yet unbuilt packages are pruned from CI for the PR.
For `develop` pipelines, we still want to build everything to ensure that the stack works, and to ensure
that `develop` catches up with PRs. This is especially true since we do not do rebuilds for *every* commit
on `develop` -- just the most recent one after each `develop` pipeline finishes. Since we skip around,
we may end up missing builds unless we ensure that we rebuild everything.
We differentiate between `develop` and PR pipelines in `.gitlab-ci.yml` by setting
`SPACK_PRUNE_UNTOUCHED` for PRs. `develop` will still have the old behavior.
- [x] Add `SPACK_PRUNE_UNTOUCHED` variable to `spack ci`
- [x] Refactor `spack pkg` command by moving historical package checking logic to `spack.repo`
- [x] Implement pruning logic in `spack ci` to remove untouched packages
- [x] add tests
* cmake: use CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH
Spack has a heuristic to add rpaths for packages it knows are required,
but it's really a heuristic, and it does not work when the dependencies
put their libraries in a different folder than `<prefix>/lib{64,}`.
CMake patches binaries after install with the "install rpaths", which by
default are provided by Spack and its heuristic through
`CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH`.
CMake however knows better what libraries are effectively being linked
to, and has an option to include those in the install rpath too, through
`CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH`.
These two CMake options are complementary, repeated rpaths seem to be
filtered, and the "use link path" paths are appended to Spack's
heuristic "install rpath".
So, it seems like a good idea to enable "use link path" by default, so
that:
- `dlopen` by library name uses Spack's heuristic search paths
- linked libraries in non-standard locations within a prefix get an
rpath thanks to CMake.

Add output of build- and install-time tests to info command

We shouldn't be using "remove_linked_tree" to remove the lock file,
since that function expects to receive a directory path as an
argument.
Also, as a further measure to avoid regression, this commit restores
the "ignore_errors=True" argument on linux and adds a unit test
checking that "remove_linked_tree" doesn't change file permissions
as a side effect of a failure to remove.
Reduces the number of stat calls to a bare minimum:
- Single pass over src prefixes
- Handle projection clashes in memory
Symlinked directories in the src prefixes are now conditionally
transformed into directories with symlinks in the dst dir. Notably
`intel-mkl`, `cuda` and `qt` has top-level symlinked directories that
previously resulted in empty directories in the view. We now avoid
cycles and possible exponential blowup by only expanding symlinks that:
- point to dirs deeper in the folder structure;
- are a fixed depth of 2.
Currently `old_root` is computed by reading the symlink at `self.root`.
We should be more defensive in removing it by checking that it is in the
same directory as the new root. Otherwise, in the worst case, when
someone runs `spack env create --with-view=./view -d .` and `view`
already exists and is a symlink to `/`, Spack effectively runs `rm -rf /`.
`file` was used to detect Python scripts with shebangs, so that the interpreter could be changed from <python prefix> to <view path>. With this change, we detect shebangs using Python instead, so that `file` is no longer required.
The number of commit characters in patch files fetched from GitHub can change,
so we should use `full_index=1` to enforce full commit hashes (and a stable
patch `sha256`).
Similarly, URLs for branches like `master` don't give us stable patch files,
because branches are moving targets. Use specific tags or commits for those.
- [x] update all github patch URLs to use `full_index=1`
- [x] don't use `master` or other branches for patches
- [x] add an audit check and a test for `?full_index=1`

Known issues reports only 2 issues, among the bugs reported on GitHub.
One of the two is also outdated, since the issue has been solved
with the new concretizer. Thus, this commit removes the section.
When you install Spack from a tarball, it will always show an exact
version for Spack itself, even when you don't download a tagged commit:
```
$ wget -q https://github.com/spack/spack/archive/refs/heads/develop.tar.gz
$ tar -xf develop.tar.gz
$ ./spack-develop/bin/spack --version
0.16.2
```
This PR sets the Spack version to `0.18.0.dev0` on develop, following [PEP440](https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/25267#issuecomment-896340234) as
suggested by Adam Stewart.
```
spack (fix/set-dev-version)$ spack --version
0.18.0.dev0 (git 0.17.1-1526-e270464ae0)
spack (fix/set-dev-version)$ mv .git .git_
spack $ spack --version
0.18.0.dev0
```
- [x] Update the release guide
- [x] Add __version__ to spack's __init__.py
- [x] Use PEP 440 canonical version strings
- [x] Make spack --version output [actual version] (git version)

* Add tests to ensure google cloud storage urls work as mirrors
This commit adds two tests to track that GCS buckets can work as
mirrors, and can be parsed as valid URLs.
Currently, gs:// format URLs are not correctly parsed.
* Fix URL parsing for GCS buckets
This commit adds GCS bucket URLs as valid URLs.
* lower priority of package-provided urls
This change favors urls found in a scraped page over those provided by
the package from `url_for_version`. In most cases this doesn't matter,
but R specifically returns known bad URLs in some cases, and the
fallback path for a failed fetch uses `fetch_remote_versions` to find a
substitute. This fixes that problem.
fixes#29204
* consider what links actually exist in all cases
Checksum was only actually scraping when called with no versions. It
now always scrapes and then selects URLs from the set of URLs known to
exist whenever possible.
fixes#25831

* test-fetch urls from package, prefer if successful
* Update lib/spack/spack/package.py

* reword as suggested
* re-enable mypy specific ignore and ignore pyflakes
* remove flake8 ignore from .flake8
* address review comments
* address comments
* add sneaky missing substitute
I missed this one because we call substitute on a URL that doesn't
contain a version component. I'm not sure how that's supposed to work,
but apparently it's required by at least one mock package, so back in it
goes.

Adds `spack external read-cray-manifest`, which reads a json file that describes a set of package DAGs. The parsed results are stored directly in the database. A user can see these installed specs with `spack find` (like any installed spec). The easiest way to use them right now as dependencies is to run `spack spec ... ^/hash-of-external-package`.
Changes include:
* `spack external read-cray-manifest --file <path/to/file>` will add all specs described in the file to Spack's installation DB and will also install described compilers to the compilers configuration (the expected format of the file is described in this PR as well including examples of the file)
* Database records now may include an "origin" (the command added in this PR registers the origin as "external-db"). In the future, it is assumed users may want to be able to treat installs registered with this command differently (e.g. they may want to uninstall all specs added with this command)
* Hash properties are now always preserved when copying specs if the source spec is concrete
* I don't think the hashes of installed-and-concrete specs should change and this was the easiest way to handle that
* also specs that are concrete preserve their `.normal` property when copied (external specs may mention compilers that are not registered, and without this change they would fail in `normalize` when calling `validate_or_raise`)
* it might be this should only be the case if the spec was installed
- [x] Improve testing
- [x] Specifically mark DB records added with this command (so that users can do something like "uninstall all packages added with `spack read-external-db`)
* This is now possible with `spack uninstall --all --origin=external-db` (this will remove all specs added from manifest files)
- [x] Strip variants that are listed in json entries but don't actually exist for the package

This PR removes a few outdated sections from the "Basics" part of the
documentation. It also makes a few topic under the environment section
more prominent by removing an unneeded spack.yaml subsection and
promoting everything under it.
