Quick start documentation for the header file utilities.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This isn't a full breakdown of the tools, just they typical use scenarios.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- Each tool accepts -h to show it's usage. Usually no parameters will also
|
|||
|
trigger the help message. Help may specify additional functionality to what is
|
|||
|
listed here.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- For all tools, option format for specifying filenames must have no spaces
|
|||
|
between the option and filename.
|
|||
|
ie.: tool -lfilename.h target.h
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- Many of the tools are required to be run from the core gcc source directory
|
|||
|
containing coretypes.h. Typically that is in gcc/gcc from a source checkout.
|
|||
|
For these tools to work on files not in this directory, their path needs to be
|
|||
|
specified on the command line.
|
|||
|
ie.: tool c/c-decl.c lto/lto.c
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- options can be intermixed with filenames anywhere on the command line
|
|||
|
ie. tool ssa.h rtl.h -a is equivalent to
|
|||
|
tool ssa.h -a rtl.h
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
gcc-order-headers
|
|||
|
-----------------
|
|||
|
This will reorder any primary backend headers files known to the tool into a
|
|||
|
canonical order which will resolve any hidden dependencies they may have.
|
|||
|
Any unknown headers will simply be placed after the recognized files, and
|
|||
|
retain the same relative ordering they had.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This tool must be run in the core gcc source directory.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Simply execute the command listing any files you wish to process on the
|
|||
|
command line.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Any files which are changed are output, and the original is saved with a
|
|||
|
.bak extention.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
ex.: gcc-order-headers tree-ssa.c c/c-decl.c
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
-s will list all of the known headers in their canonical order. It does not
|
|||
|
show which of those headers include other headers, just the final canonical
|
|||
|
ordering.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
if any header files are included within a conditional code block, the tool
|
|||
|
will issue a message and not change the file. When this happens, you can
|
|||
|
manually inspect the file to determine if reordering it is actually OK. Then
|
|||
|
rerun the command with the -i option. This will ignore the conditional error
|
|||
|
condition and perform the re-ordering anyway.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
If any #include line has the beginning of a multi-line comment, it will also
|
|||
|
refuse to process the file until that is resolved by terminating the comment
|
|||
|
on the same line, or removing it.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
show-headers
|
|||
|
------------
|
|||
|
This will show the include structure for any given file. Each level of nesting
|
|||
|
is indented, and when any duplicate headers are seen, they have their
|
|||
|
duplicate number shown
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
-i may be used to specify additional search directories for headers to parse.
|
|||
|
-s specifies headers to look for and emphasize in the output.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This tool must be run in the core gcc source directory.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
ex.: show-headers -sansidecl.h tree-ssa.c
|
|||
|
tree-ssa.c
|
|||
|
config.h
|
|||
|
auto-host.h
|
|||
|
ansidecl.h (1) <<-------
|
|||
|
system.h
|
|||
|
safe-ctype.h
|
|||
|
filenames.h
|
|||
|
hashtab.h (1)
|
|||
|
ansidecl.h (2) <<-------
|
|||
|
libiberty.h
|
|||
|
ansidecl.h (3) <<-------
|
|||
|
hwint.h
|
|||
|
coretypes.h
|
|||
|
machmode.h (1)
|
|||
|
insn-modes.h (1)
|
|||
|
signop.h
|
|||
|

|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
count-headers
|
|||
|
-------------
|
|||
|
simply count all the headers found in the specified files. A summary is
|
|||
|
printed showing occurrences from high to low.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
ex.: count-headers tree*.c
|
|||
|
86 : coretypes.h
|
|||
|
86 : config.h
|
|||
|
86 : system.h
|
|||
|
86 : tree.h
|
|||
|
82 : backend.h
|
|||
|
80 : gimple.h
|
|||
|
72 : gimple-iterator.h
|
|||
|
70 : ssa.h
|
|||
|
68 : fold-const.h
|
|||
|
<...>
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
included-by
|
|||
|
-----------
|
|||
|
This tool will search all the .c,.cc and .h files and output a list of files
|
|||
|
which include the specified header(s).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
A 4 level deep 'find' of all source files is performed from the current
|
|||
|
directory and each of those is inspected for a #include of the specified
|
|||
|
headers. So expect a little bit of slowness.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
-i limits the search to only other header files.
|
|||
|
-c limits the search to .c and .cc files.
|
|||
|
-a shows only source files which include all specified headers.
|
|||
|
-f allows you to specify a file which contains a list of source files to
|
|||
|
check rather than performing the much slower find command.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
ex: included-by tree-vectorizer.h
|
|||
|
config/aarch64/aarch64.c
|
|||
|
config/i386/i386.c
|
|||
|
config/rs6000/rs6000.c
|
|||
|
tree-loop-distribution.c
|
|||
|
tree-parloops.c
|
|||
|
tree-ssa-loop-ivopts.c
|
|||
|
tree-ssa-loop.c
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
replace-header
|
|||
|
--------------
|
|||
|
This tool simply replaces a single header file with one or more other headers.
|
|||
|
-r specifies the include to replace, and one or more -f options specify the
|
|||
|
replacement headers, in the order they occur.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This is commonly used in conjunction with 'included-by' to change all
|
|||
|
occurrences of a header file to something else, or to insert new headers
|
|||
|
before or after.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
ex: to insert #include "before.h" before every occurence of tree.h in all
|
|||
|
.c and .cc source files:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
replace-header -rtree.h -fbefore.h -ftree.h `included-by -c tree.h`
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
reduce-headers
|
|||
|
--------------
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This tool removes any header files which are not needed from a source file.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This tool must be run for the core gcc source directory, and requires either
|
|||
|
a native build and sometimes target builds, depending on what you are trying
|
|||
|
to reduce.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
it is good practice to run 'gcc-order-headers' on a source file before trying
|
|||
|
to reduce it. This removes duplicates and performs some simplifications
|
|||
|
which reduce the chances of the reduction tool missing things.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
start with a completely bootstrapped native compiler.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Any desired target builds should be built in one directory using a modified
|
|||
|
config-list.mk file which does not delete the build directory when it is done.
|
|||
|
any target directories which do not successfully complete a 'make all-gcc'
|
|||
|
may cause the tool to not reduce anything.
|
|||
|
(todo - provide a config-list.mk that leaves successful target builds, but
|
|||
|
deletes ones which do not compile)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The tool will examine all the target builds to determine which targets build
|
|||
|
the file, and include those targets in the testing.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The tool will analyze a source file and attempt to remove each non-conditional
|
|||
|
header from last to first in the file.:
|
|||
|
It will first attempt to build the native all-gcc target.
|
|||
|
If that succeeds, it will attempt to build any target build .o files
|
|||
|
If that succeeds, it will check to see if there are any conditional
|
|||
|
compilation dependencies between this header file and the source file or
|
|||
|
any header which have already been determined as non-removable.
|
|||
|
If all these tests are passed, the header file is determined to be removable
|
|||
|
and is removed from the source file.
|
|||
|
This continues until all headers have been checked.
|
|||
|
At this point, a bootstrap is attempted in the native build, and if that
|
|||
|
passes the file is considered reduced.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Any files from the config subdirectory require target builds to be present
|
|||
|
in order to proceed.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
A small subset of targets has been determined to provide excellent coverage,
|
|||
|
at least as of Aug 31/15 . They were found by reducing all the files
|
|||
|
contained in libbackend.a oer a full set of targets(207). All conditions
|
|||
|
which disallowed removal of a header file were triggered by one or more of
|
|||
|
these targets. They are also known to the tool. When building targets it
|
|||
|
will check those targets before the rest.
|
|||
|
This coverage can be achieved by building config-list.mk with :
|
|||
|
LIST="aarch64-linux-gnu arm-netbsdelf avr-rtems c6x-elf epiphany-elf hppa2.0-hpux10.1 i686-mingw32crt i686-pc-msdosdjgpp mipsel-elf powerpc-eabisimaltivec rs6000-ibm-aix5.1.0 sh-superh-elf sparc64-elf spu-elf"
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
-b specifies the native bootstrapped build root directory
|
|||
|
-t specifies a target build root directory that config-list.mk was run from
|
|||
|
-f is used to limit the headers for consideration.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
example:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
mkdir gcc // checkout gcc in subdir gcc
|
|||
|
mdsir build // boostrap gcc in subdir build
|
|||
|
mkdir target // create target directory and run config-list.mk
|
|||
|
cd gcc/gcc
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
reduce-headers -b../../build -t../../targets -falias.h -fexpr.h tree*.c (1)
|
|||
|
# This will attempt to remove only alias.h and expr.h from tree*.c
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
reduce-headers -b../../build -t../../targets tree-ssa-live.c
|
|||
|
# This will attempt to remove all header files from tree-ssa-live.c
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
the tool will generate a number of log files:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
reduce-headers.log : All compilation failures from attempted reductions.
|
|||
|
reduce-headers.sum : One line summary of what happened to each source file.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
(All the remaining logs are appended to, so if the tool is run multiple times
|
|||
|
these files are just added to. You must physically remove them yourself in
|
|||
|
order to reset the logs.)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
reduce-headers-kept.log: List of all the successful compiles that were
|
|||
|
ignored because of conditional macro dependencies
|
|||
|
and why it thinks that is the case
|
|||
|
$src.c.log : for each failed header removal, the compilation
|
|||
|
messages as to why it failed.
|
|||
|
$header.h.log: The same log is put into the relevant header log as well.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
a sample output from ira.c.log:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Compilation failed:
|
|||
|
for shrink-wrap.h:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
============================================
|
|||
|
/gcc/2015-09-09/gcc/gcc/ira.c: In function ‘bool split_live_ranges_for_shrink_wrap()’:
|
|||
|
/gcc/2015-09-09/gcc/gcc/ira.c:4839:8: error: ‘SHRINK_WRAPPING_ENABLED’ was not declared in this scope
|
|||
|
if (!SHRINK_WRAPPING_ENABLED)
|
|||
|
^
|
|||
|
make: *** [ira.o] Error 1
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
the same message would be put into shrink-wrap.h.log.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
graph-header-logs
|
|||
|
-----------------
|
|||
|
This tool will parse all the messages from the .C files, looking for failures
|
|||
|
that show up in other headers... meaning there is a compilation dependency
|
|||
|
between the 2 header files.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The tool will aggregate all these and generate a graph of the dependencies
|
|||
|
exposed during compilation. Red lines indicate dependencies that are
|
|||
|
present because a header file physically includes another file. Black lines
|
|||
|
represent data dependencies causing compilation failures if the header is
|
|||
|
not present.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
ex.: graph-header-logs *.c.log
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
graph-include-web
|
|||
|
-----------------
|
|||
|
This tool can be used to visualize the include structure in files. It is
|
|||
|
rapidly turned useless if you specify too many things, but it can be
|
|||
|
useful for finding cycles and redundancies, or simply to see what a single
|
|||
|
file looks like.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
ex.: graph-include-web tree.c
|
