* 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`.

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
* Add format to separate target and os for path
spec format can now handle separations of target and os for setting
up the path.
* Added ${PLATFORM} et al to spec.format()
${PLATFORM}, ${OS}, ${TARGET}
* Update tests
Updated tests and got rid of unnecessary code.
* Also update documentation to reflect this new ability.
* Add default path scheme to config.yaml
Added default path scheme to config.yaml. Users can overwrite this
section if they want.
This provides options for hardware and software rendering with the
gl API and updates the vtk package to make use of those options:
* Create new "gl" virtual package, provided by mesa
* Add external-only "opengl" package, which represents a system
install that provides gl
* For vtk: prefer system gl implementation by default to get speed
up from hardware rendering. When software rendering is specifically
requested (+osmesa), try to use the llvmpipe approach, as it is
much faster.
* Make qt dependency optional for vtk
* Add basic support for VTK on osx
* qt: Depend on virtual gl package, rather than mesa impl
* Module files now are generated using a template engine refers #2902#3173
jinja2 has been hooked into Spack.
The python module `modules.py` has been splitted into several modules
under the python package `spack/modules`. Unit tests stressing module
file generation have been refactored accordingly.
The module file generator for Lmod has been extended to multi-providers
and deeper hierarchies.
* Improved the support for templates in module files.
Added an entry in `config.yaml` (`template_dirs`) to list all the
directories where Spack could find templates for `jinja2`.
Module file generators have a simple override mechanism to override
template selection ('modules.yaml' beats 'package.py' beats 'default').
* Added jinja2 and MarkupSafe to vendored packages.
* Spec.concretize() sets mutual spec-package references
The correct place to set the mutual references between spec and package
objects at the end of concretization. After a call to concretize we
should now be ensured that spec is the same object as spec.package.spec.
Code in `build_environment.py` that was performing the same operation
has been turned into an assertion to be defensive on the new behavior.
* Improved code and data layout for modules and related tests.
Common fixtures related to module file generation have been extracted
in `conftest.py`. All the mock configurations for module files have been
extracted from python code and have been put into their own yaml file.
Added a `context_property` decorator for the template engine, to make
it easy to define dictionaries out of properties.
The default for `verbose` in `modules.yaml` is now False instead of True.
* Extendable module file contexts + short description from docstring
The contexts that are used in conjunction with `jinja2` templates to
generate module files can now be extended from package.py and
modules.yaml.
Module files generators now infer the short description from package.py
docstring (and as you may expect it's the first paragraph)
* 'module refresh' regenerates all modules by default
`module refresh` without `--module-type` specified tries to
regenerate all known module types. The same holds true for `module rm`
Configure options used at build time are extracted and written into the
module files where possible.
* Fixed python3 compatibility, tests for Lmod and Tcl.
Added test for exceptional paths of execution when generating Lmod
module files.
Fixed a few compatibility issues with python3.
Fixed a bug in Tcl with naming_scheme and autoload + unit tests
* Updated module file tutorial docs. Fixed a few typos in docstrings.
The reference section for module files has been reorganized. The idea is
to have only three topics at the highest level:
- shell support + spack load/unload use/unuse
- module file generation (a.k.a. APIs + modules.yaml)
- module file maintenance (spack module refresh/rm)
Module file generation will cover the entries in modules.yaml
Also:
- Licenses have been updated to include NOTICE and extended to 2017
- docstrings have been reformatted according to Google style
* Removed redundant arguments to RPackage and WafPackage.
All the callbacks in `RPackage` and `WafPackage` that are not build
phases have been modified not to accept a `spec` and a `prefix`
argument. This permits to leverage the common `configure_args` signature
to insert by default the configuration arguments into the generated
module files. I think it's preferable to handling those packages
differently than `AutotoolsPackage`. Besides only one package seems
to override one of these methods.
* Fixed broken indentation + improved resiliency of refresh
Fixed broken indentation in `spack module refresh` (probably a rebase
gone silently wrong?). Filter the writers for blacklisted specs before
searching for name clashes. An error with a single writer will not
stop regeneration, but instead will print a warning and continue
the command.

--
Refactor openfoam packages by adding an OpenfoamArch class
Use separate configure, build, install phases.
Provide FOAM_PROJECT_DIR dependent env for openfoam packages
- easier way to locate
Eliminate intermediate installation directories
- unneeded clutter.
- makes it less than easy to find the etc/bashrc file
Add versioning for all openfoam patches
- no certainty which parts (if any) will be needed in future versions,
especially if we strive to ensure that the upstream version builds
well with spack to begin with.
Support build of develop branches
- helps track build regressions for future openfoam releases
STYLE: use common/ and assets/ to provide additional (build) resources ...
* - adjust OpenFOAM provider
Move openfoam-com up front since this is the one being used as a base
for the others
* Add missing dependencies to gawk
* Fix make check
* Add mawk packages and awk virtual dependency
* Use mawk instead of gawk to build ncurses
* Rearrange order of patches and dependencies
- Added a schema for config.yaml
- Moved install tree configuration to config.yaml
- Moved etc/spack/install.yaml to etc/spack/defaults/config.yaml
- renamed install_area to "store", to use a term in common with guix/nix.
- in `config.yaml` file, it's called the `install_tree` to be more
intuitive to users.
- `install_tree` might've worked in the code, but `install_tree` is
already a global function in the spack namespace, from
llnl.util.filesystem.
* py-pil: Does not build with Python3.
* Set py-pillow to be the default pil provider
* Update package.py
* Change to comments requested by adamjstewart
* Remove version constraint from extends(), avoid a Spack bug.
- Default scope is versioned with spack and can be overridden by site
or user config.
- Default scope provides sensible default concretization preferences
for all of Spack.
- per-platform concretization scope can be added later (to force a
particular MPI on, e.g., Cray systems)
