Fixes #8621
|
|
compat updates to do as part of a release.
|
|
Also test that the compat updating script hasn't become outdated on the
CI.

As requested in
https://github.com/coq/coq/issues/8311#issuecomment-415976318
the release process describes the steps to take.
All automatable steps are taken by the new script
dev/tools/update-compat.py
I've tried to make the script relatively easy to update if functions get
renamed or moved, but since it's doing unstructured source manipulation,
it is sort-of fragile.
We could plausibly add a file to the test-suite to ensure that we catch
script-breakage early, but this would require dropping compatibility
support much earlier in the development cycle (the compatibility changes
would have to come right when the new version is branched, rather than
shortly before the beta release).

This was kept as a fallback for some time, not worth keeping it
anymore as our GitLab setup seems mature and reliable enough.

As far as I know, this plugin is untested and barely maintained. I don't
think it has real use cases any more, so let's move it out from the repo
and see if somebody wants to take over and maintain it.
We also remove the documentation, which was telling our users to look at
ring to see an example of reification done using quote, when in fact it
wasn't using it anymore.

[Dune](https://github.com/ocaml/dune) is a compositional declarative
build system for OCaml. It provides automatic generation of
`version.ml`, `.merlin`, `META`, `opam`, API documentation; install
management; easy integration with external libraries, test runners,
and modular builds.
In particular, Dune uniformly handles components regardless whether
they live in, or out-of-tree. This greatly simplifies cases where a
plugin [or CoqIde] is checked out in the current working copy but then
distributed separately [and vice-versa]. Dune can thus be used as a
more flexible `coq_makefile` replacement.
For now we provide experimental support for a Dune build. In order to
build Coq + the standard library with Dune type:
```
$ make -f Makefile.dune world
```
This PR includes a preliminary, developer-only preview of Dune for
Coq. There is still ongoing work, see
https://github.com/coq/coq/issues/8052 for tracking status towards
full support.
## Technical description.
Dune works out of the box with Coq, once we have fixed some modularity
issues. The main remaining challenge was to support `.vo` files.
As Dune doesn't support custom build rules yet, to properly build
`.vo` files we provide a small helper script `tools/coq_dune.ml`. The
script will scan the Coq library directories and generate the
corresponding rules for `.v -> .vo` and `.ml4 -> .ml` builds. The
script uses `coqdep` as to correctly output the dependencies of
`.v` files. `coq_dune` is akin to `coq_makefile` and should be able to
be used to build Coq projects in the future.
Due to this pitfall, the build process has to proceed in three stages:
1) build `coqdep` and `coq_dune`; 2) generate `dune` files for
`theories` and `plugins`; 3) perform a regular build with all
targets are in scope.
## FAQ
### Why Dune?
Coq has a moderately complex build system and it is not a secret that
many developer-hours have been spent fighting with `make`.
In particular, the current `make`-based system does offer poor support
to verify that the current build rules and variables are coherent, and
requires significant manual, error-prone. Many variables must be
passed by hand, duplicated, etc... Additionally, our make system
offers poor integration with now standard OCaml ecosystem tools such
as `opam`, `ocamlfind` or `odoc`. Another critical point is build
compositionality. Coq is rich in 3rd party contributions, and a big
shortcoming of the current make system is that it cannot be used to
build these projects; requiring us to maintain a custom tool,
`coq_makefile`, with the corresponding cost.
In the past, there has been some efforts to migrate Coq to more
specialized build systems, however these stalled due to a variety of
reasons. Dune, is a declarative, OCaml-specific build tool that is on
the path to become the standard build system for the OCaml ecosystem.
Dune seems to be a good fit for Coq well: it is well-supported, fast,
compositional, and designed for large projects.
### Does Dune replace the make-based build system?
The current, make-based build system is unmodified by this PR and kept
as the default option. However, Dune has the potential
### Is this PR complete? What does it provide?
This PR is ready for developer preview and feedback. The build system
is functional, however, more work is necessary in order to make Dune
the default for Coq.
The main TODOs are tracked at https://github.com/coq/coq/issues/8052
This PR allows developers to use most of the features of Dune today:
- Modular organization of the codebase; each component is built only
against declared dependencies so components are checked for
containment more strictly.
- Hygienic builds; Dune places all artifacts under `_build`.
- Automatic generation of `.install` files, simplified OPAM workflow.
- `utop` support, `-opaque` in developer mode, etc...
- `ml4` files are handled using `coqp5`, a native-code customized
camlp5 executable which brings much faster `ml4 -> ml` processing.
### What dependencies does Dune require?
Dune doesn't depend on any 3rd party package other than the OCaml compiler.

As was previously done for the CI, this means that there are no more
principal / secondary code owners. All the member of the team can
choose to review and self-assign any documentation PR that is not
their own.

GitLab setup is quite stable these days thanks to the work of many
people and `coqbot`. We decided to keep CircleCI support for a while
as a safeguard in case something happened in the migration to GitLab,
but these days we are just wasting resources to them and to us. As I'm
afraid CircleCI won't scale for us, the time to remove it has arrived.
Still, CircleCI had some awesome functionality that GitLab's CI
doesn't offer yet, see the links at:

As stated in the manual, the fourier tactic is subsumed by lra.

For now we only copy the templates, but we could do more fancy stuff.
This helps to be compatible with build systems that take care of these
files automatically, see:
https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/6857#discussion_r202096579

This means that all the members of the team will receive
a review request for PRs on the CI, but only one of them
will need to approve the PR, and this will remove the
review request for the others.
Currently the team contains Emilio and Gaetan, the two
former code owners of these files. It makes sense to start
experimenting on this component since they had already
decided to make their role symmetric.
Updating the list of maintainers can be done by updating
the list members, and without changing the CODEOWNER file.
