Clang is such a great compiler! Not.
Compilers have enhanced diagnostics for some kinds of "well known"
undeclared identifiers, telling you exactly which header you might have
forgotten to include. The reason why clang needs an option GCC doesn't
need is because clang's fixit suggestions, unlike GCC's actually
*changes the type of the error*, as a result of a fixit of all things.
After the fixit suggestion grants this error the right to be ignored,
we start having to add clang-specific options.

Upstream clang bug, which appears to be going nowhere:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/33905
If -L flags get into CLikeCompiler::build_wrapper_args, they will be
correctly detected and the /LINK flag added to the list. However,
CompilerArgs::__iadd__ will reorder them to the front, thinking they're
GNU-style flags, and this will cause MSVC to ignore them after
conversion.
The fix is twofold:
1. Convert all the linker args into their compiler form, making sure the
/LINK argument is dropped (see 2)
2. Insert /LINK into extra_args if not already present
3. Execute in situ the unix_to_native replacement, ensuring no further
reordering occurs.

We'll need it in a moment for get_base_compile_args -> get_assert_args.

By adding the option name to UserOption object, it is now possible to
display the name of the affected option when the given option value is
not valid.
Fixes#12635
Places where compiler needs it already have access to Environment object
and can use it directly.
This fixes mypy complaining that not all compilers have self.exe_wrapper
in run() method that got moved to base class.
When only a single input file shows up in an arglist, it makes no sense
to inject `-W,--start-group -lone -Wl,--end-group`, since there is
nothing being grouped together. It's just longer command lines for
nothing.
This is just a bad regex match, because it matches *.so as a prospective
filename input even though it is actually not an input but a linker
flag. --start-group is only relevant to input files...
Currently, not only Meson lacks a way to induce a "--fatal-warnings" on
LINK.exe, it is also unable to pass flags appropriately when using
clang-cl or Microsoft's stock clang.
This commit fixes it by implementing `fatal_warnings()` in the
MSVCDynamicLinker and ClangCLDynamicLinker classes, and by implementing
the requisite conversion steps in linker_to_compiler_args for
ClangCompiler.
This reverts commit 53ea59ad84.
This breaks at least:
- frameworks/17 mpi
- frameworks/30 scalapack
The problem is that openmpi's pkg-config emitted link arguments
includes:
```
-Wl,-rpath -Wl,/path/to/libdir
```
The deduplication logic in meson doesn't contain sufficient information
to tell when the compiler is passing an argument that requires values,
and definitely cannot tell when that argument is split across argv. But
for arguments that *can* do this, it is not possible to deduplicate a
single argument as standalone, because it is not standalone.
The argument for deduplicating rpath here was that if you have multiple
dependencies that all add the same rpath, the Apple ld64 emits a
non-fatal warning "duplicate -rpath ignored". Since this is non-fatal,
it's not a major issue. A major issue is when builds fatally error out
with:
```
FAILED: scalapack_c
cc -o scalapack_c scalapack_c.p/main.c.o -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,--no-undefined -Wl,--start-group /usr/lib64/libscalapack.so /usr/lib64/liblapack.so /usr/lib64/libblas.so -Wl,-rpath -Wl,/usr/lib64 -Wl,/usr/lib64 -Wl,--enable-new-dtags /usr/lib64/libmpi.so -Wl,--end-group

```
This replaces all of the Apache blurbs at the start of each file with an
`# SPDX-License-Identifier: Apache-2.0` string. It also fixes existing
uses to be consistent in capitalization, and to be placed above any
copyright notices.
This removes nearly 3000 lines of boilerplate from the project (only
python files), which no developer cares to look at.
SPDX is in common use, particularly in the Linux kernel, and is the
recommended format for Meson's own `project(license: )` field
no_warn_args is unused. Its only purpose was to implement automatic
hiding of UB in transpiled code, and it was not used at all in languages
other than C/C++ -- specifically when the C/C++ source files were
created by transpiling from vala or cython.
If an annotation could not be resolved, it's classified as a "missing
import" and our configuration ignored it:
```
Skipping analyzing "mesonbuild.backends": module is installed, but missing library stubs or py.typed marker
```
As far as mypy is concerned, this library may or may not exist, but it
doesn't have any typing information at all (may need to be installed
first).
We ignored this because of our docs/ and tools/ thirdparty dependencies,
but we really should not. It is trivial to install them, and then
enforce that this "just works".
By enforcing it, we also make sure typos get caught.
[why]
On Apple clang 15.0.0 linker (i.e. ld64 1015.7) giving the same rpath
multiple times raises a warning:
ld: warning: duplicate -rpath '/local/lib' ignored
This can frequently happen when linking several dependencies that all
have that rpath in e.g. pkgconfig.
[how]
Deduplicate all rpath arguments.
[note]
I'm not sure how the code handles --start/end-group, but for rpath that
should not make any difference as that is not bound to a group.

Partially reverts commit 1624354f33 which
moved a bunch of stuff from strings to enums. The issue here is that
Compiler.mode is not just, or primarily, something we compare, but is
instead written in as e.g. `rule c_{compiler.mode}` to build.ninja, so
this identifier needs to be a string.
Ultimately, the issue is that the commit tried to rewrite a bunch of
things called "mode" that had a couple of TODOs saying to use enums...
but it rewrote everything called "mode" regardless of whether it was a
function kwarg or a compiler property, even though the TODO only applied
to one of them.
It should *be* a version comparison. We are guaranteed to get a
two-element version number, which also parses as a float but a float
doesn't correctly handle version sorting when the second component
differs in number of digits.
The standard way to handle this is by comparing tuples such that each
component is an integer. Do so here.

According to the Meson documentation, optimization level 3 should
set the highest possible optimization for the compiler in use.
In Metrowerks, this is 'O4,p'. However, Meson's Metrowerks
implementation mapped opt level 3 to '-O3'. This has been fixed.
The args were in both buildtype and optimization. This broke buildtypes other
than plain or custom unless manually setting the optimization level to
0, because Metrowerks chokes on duplicate arguments.
A standard C library may not exist for cross-compile
environments, thus the existence of <stdio.h> cannot be
guaranteed.
Use <stddef.h> instead, this header contains compiler-specific
defines thus it usually comes from the compiler.
Adds a new method to the compiler object, has_define.
This makes it possible to check if a preprocessor macro/define
is set or not.
This is especially helpful if the define in question is empty,
for example:
#define MESON_EMPTY_DEFINE
This would yield the same results as a missing define with
the existing get_define method, as it would return an empty
string for both cases. Therefore this additional method is
needed.

This has no actual effect on the codebase as type checkers (still)
support both and negligible effect on runtime performance since
__future__ annotations ameliorates that. Technically, the bytecode would
be bigger for non function-local annotations, of which we have many
either way.
So if it doesn't really matter, why do a large-scale refactor? Simple:
because people keep wanting to, but it's getting nickle-and-dimed. If
we're going to do this we might as well do it consistently in one shot,
using tooling that guarantees repeatability and correctness.

clang has supported gcc syntax since version 3.3.0 from 10 years ago.
It's better than its own version because it takes a "when" verb which
allows us to explicitely ask for "auto". This is useful when overriding
flags that came from elsewhere.
Before this patch, meson was just treating b_colorout="auto" as "always".
Since it's deprecated anyway, we don't really want to plumb it all the
way down into the build and backend layers. Instead, we can just turn
it into a `win_subsystem` value in the interpreter if `win_subsystem`
isn't already set.
This detects cases where module A imports a function from B, and C
imports that same function from A instead of B. It's not part of the API
contract of A, and causes innocent refactoring to break things.
