* Rewrite gn-cmake integrationMichal Klocek2021-08-291-3/+7

These were marked as IMPORTED in cmake build files, this way cmake "knew" all object files and static libs coming from gn. To achieve that we needed to run the cmake configure twice. First to feed gn with the build information from cmake and then the second run to import all the build information to cmake based on gn run. As a side effect of this the first run cmake was creating incomplete targets, so we could use generator expressions to gather all the data needed for gn run. The second run of cmake was able to create fully initialized targets. We used 'external project' to run cmake the second time. This approach worked well when doing "module" builds and having two targets, one in the main project and one in external was not an issue. Moreover, this approach could be integrated nicely since CI does only "module" builds. Unfortunately "top level" builds are implemented to import all qt targets into one build tree. This created issue for qtwebengine since fully initialized targets were 'hidden' by 'external project' and including half baked (dummy) targets from the main project resulted in bunch of issues related to the dependency tracking and build race conditions. Also using 'external project' complicated installation rules and in the end installation worked differently than in other modules. With current approach we use response files, so we hide all build artifacts coming from gn and feed cmake with those response files. This way we run the cmake configure once and we create all the targets once. Using rsp files hacks linker options in cmake, so this approach is sub-optimal, however allows to have working "top level" builds. It is worth mentioning here that the final module linking has to take place with cmake's part of build since doing one static lib in gn is not possible due to the toolchain limitation (msvc is not able to process static libs over 4Gb and has no support for thin archives, so only a shared lib is doable at time of writing) Following changes are made: * remove 'external project' for qtwebengine target, we keep it however for ninja ,gn and a host project * call gn from cmake in a scripting mode during build and not configure run, this way BUILD.gn is assembled as a build step so after generator expressions are executed * BUILD.gn is assembled now from 4 files: - root template BUILD.root.gn.in - compiler data gn_config_c.cmake, gn_config_cxx.cmake - sources data gn_cofnig_target.cmake * since we use gn wrapper script use gn.args file to pass arguments instead of a command line, so this file can be now easily modified when running gn and ninja 'manually' * since a script mode does not support handling of properties with TARGET as such, use the DIRECTORY scope in some of our functions which handle GN_TARGET * use qt_build_repo() in main CMakeFile and remove all coin and top level build hacks * remove 'external project' for examples and tests, this is no longer required as all qt targets are not hidden by external project * remove leftovers from gn feedback call used for GN_TARGET * improve installation rules, WebEgineCore target is not by default installed during build, therefore we need to copy resources and translations to root so tests and examples still can be built without a module being installed first * adjust GN lookup paths, we look for gn in main configure and during scripting mode when gn is executed Fixes: QTBUG-94349 Fixes: QTBUG-94709 Fixes: QTBUG-94922 Fixes: QTBUG-94997 Fixes: QTBUG-95051 Fixes: QTBUG-95152 Fixes: QTBUG-95158 Fixes: QTBUG-95972 Task-number: QTBUG-95231 Task-number: QTBUG-95590 Pick-to: 6.2 Change-Id: I5e7a34287ee59d904103fe310fc7c6a36a8dfbc9 Reviewed-by: Allan Sandfeld Jensen <allan.jensen@qt.io>
* Add cross compilation support to cmake buildsMichal Klocek2021-07-161-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add arm cross-compile basic support. CMake does not support host builds. However we do host build with gn and changing that would require an extra effort to keep all necessary changes with Chromium upstream. Therefore let gn to perform the host build for required tools and just feed gn with all the build data. Add new build steps: * install gn into QT_HOST_PATH/libexec. * run hostBuild project to get native architecture and compiler * call PkgConfigHost to pass pkg-config paths to gn * create wrapper script for host pkg-config to escape yocto shell pkg config exports This change also splits gn toolchain into 3 toolchains host,target,v8 Now hostBuild provides host and v8 toolchain in case of cross compile. The build optimizations will follow in another patch. Fix not existing 'boot2qt' condition and enables more test on QEMU. Note this is tested only with yocto based images.

* Add support for gn versionMichal Klocek2021-05-281-3/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Check the version before using gn, since some systems can have already gn installed. In case of cross builds gn is installed into host qt and can simply end up in /usr/bin path of x86_64 sysroot in case of yocto builds, meaning it will be picked up by the host system path. Moreover, findGn.cmake is also going to be installed and should not just look for non existing builds paths. One can also avoid pointless recompilations of gn for every single clean build. Gn can be easily installed by simply building the "gn" project: cmake path/to/qtwebengine/src/gn cmake --build . --parallel cmake --install . Note setting DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX and/or DESTDIR can install gn to desired location. Change-Id: Ie8f989c838dad2e6e7e346a4f6a861e187ec037f Reviewed-by: Allan Sandfeld Jensen <allan.jensen@qt.io>
* Setup cmake projectMichal Klocek2021-05-121-0/+23
Add the top level cmake project and ninja and gn cmake builds. Make ninja and gn build optional. With qmake we had four stages during the build: * configure (initial dependencies check) * qmake (build ninja, build gn, run gn) * make (compilation) * make install With cmake we have some limitations: a) we need to pass the build config to gn, however cmake evaluates generator expressions during the generation phase this means we need a recursive call to cmake b) qt-cmake qtbase logic (+syncqt) assumes "fixed" build locations to handle deployment of headers and libs (it uses CMAKE_BINARY_DIR for QT_BUILD_DIR) c) cmake can not run twice in the same build directory d) running recursive/child cmake, makes all generated targets not accessible during configure time of parent's cmake e) cmake can only "build" things for subdirectories To deal with mentioned limitations and to keep things simple we will split those steps into separate projects: * SUPERBUILD - this project does dependency checks, only evaluates features to show the build summary and passes them to EXAMPLES,LIBS,TESTS projects, it also runs the generator expression to feed LIBS project's cmake, it does not try to run syncqt as result of (b) and (c) * NINJA (build ninja) * GN (build gn) * LIBS - projects runs simplified feature evaluation (CONDITIONS resolved by SUPERBUILD cmake) to generate build headers (+syncqt), it also runs gn during configure and does all libs compilation. The project's source root must be "src" directory as a result of (a),(b),(c) * EXAMPLES - builds examples as a result of (d),(e) * TESTS - builds tests as a result of (d),(e) Each of projects will have three stages: configure, compile, install.
