This patch addresses several bugs with the build system:
- Lack of Windows support
- Clang Tidy was not working properly
- Making modifications to the source code would compile, but would not
re-link resulting in issues
- Removed excess file copying
- Make clean now works
- Removed unused or confusing folders in the build folder as part of the
build process. It is now much easier to traverse the build folder for
dependencies
- The targets didn't work with extensions. This has been fixed.
In addition, the following was also done under this patch
- Intrinsics was moved to the top level and out of the VMM
- Platform files are now in a folder called "platform" instead of
"arch"
- All subprojects have the same include/src/tests files structure
- All intel specific code is properly organized to match intended
namespacing
- Removed dead code
- A small part of the VMCS was converted to use the delegate pattern
- All dependencies are now downloaded at configure time instead of
compile time.
- The cache directory is now cached by Travis CI
- CMake output better matches old build system
- Added make rebuild and separate clean targets to remove various parts
of the build depending on needs.
- Added targets for Clean, Tidy, Rebuild and Format for each subproject
- Re-organized the cmake logic so that macros are not spread out
- New validation removes unneeded complexity
- Removed the need for the compiler wrapper, and in doing so, we now
provide a simpilar set of toolchain files
- Removed the need for Git repos. All external dependencies are
downloaded using a zip or tarball
- Libcxx and Libcxxabi are now in their own files. Much similar logic
- Unit test CMake files have been greatly simplified
- Each subproject is unaware of it's prefix and no long use VMM,
USERSPACE or TEST variables in their cmake files
- Fixed bugs with the flags
- Renamed the varbiables in the default.cmake config to be more
consistent and easier to follow in the rest of the code
