waf: Make samba "ok" with directories for install being symlinks

2012-09-20T21:26:26+00:00

stat -> lstat conversion.  This allows people for whom $PREFIX/var is a
symlink to complete make install.

docs-xml: convert smb.conf.5 build to waf

2012-09-17T12:18:31+00:00

smb.conf(5) is different from other manpages because before it is
built, it gets merged together from a number of smaller files, one
per parameter. So we first create a parameters.all.xml file that
references all these files and then include it into master smb.conf.5.xml

One small issue is how to handle generated files in WAF build
from xi:include perspective as the files are generated in bin/default/docs-xml
rather than in docs-xml. We solve this by further expanding use of XML catalogs
and rewriting virtual path http://www.samba.org/samba/smbdotconf/ to proper
location.

Both docs-xml autoconf and waf builds work correctly now.

build:dist: make use of file / distfile more obvious in handling of DIST_FILES in "make dist"

build:dist: extend samba_dist.DIST_FILES() to take optional parameter extend(=False)

2012-09-12T21:53:02+00:00

This allows to do multpile DIST_FILES() calls that will extend the list
rather than only setting it initially.

wafsamba/samba_abi: allow negative matches in abi_match

2012-09-07T10:31:42+00:00

abi_match keyword for samba libraries allows to selectively
apply ABI versions. samba_abi.py implied !sym to be used to
say 'all symbols but this one' but the actual demotion
of !sym to the local scope was not implemented.

Now abi_match='!sym' properly moves symbol to a local scope.

gen_abi.sh: filter out symbols not needed for ABI

2012-09-07T10:31:42+00:00

gdb does not allow to print definitions of certain section names
and special symbols used for dynamic loading machinery:

__bss_start
_edata
_init
_fini
_end

Please note the space before the pattern, it is needed to avoid
hungry matches of valid symbols with these as substrings (foo_init,
for example).

Without this patch gdb on Fedora 18 breaks when attempting to print
function and struct signature.
