Randy Eckenrode | The symbols are. | 01:37:42 |
Randy Eckenrode | They’re in the text-based stubs. | 01:37:48 |
emily | right, ok, dispatch_time_from_nsec is there | 01:38:06 |
emily | it seems at least very contextual whether you'd want them to expand to availability checks | 01:38:16 |
emily | like any time you're compiling something directly you don't want SPI_AVAILABLE on its own definitions | 01:38:48 |
emily | what probably makes sense is rewriting SPI_ → API_ inside the XNU headers etc. themselves | 01:39:15 |
Randy Eckenrode | I’d only want to elide them if we were actually building and using libdispatch on Darwin in lieu of using the system library. I would want those SPI checks in this case when using the system library because they may not be available on older releases. I ran into at least one of those with the 14.0 min version that required patching to check availability. | 01:39:25 |
emily | libdispatch was just an example | 01:39:34 |
emily | dyld is more relevant | 01:39:50 |
emily | (since we actually build that) | 01:40:00 |
emily | https://github.com/apple-oss-distributions/libpcap/blob/e5deb8a7884f6f0d24343e81dfd0a4585a03880a/libpcap/pcap-util.h#L61 | 01:40:37 |
emily | we also build libpcap | 01:40:40 |
Randy Eckenrode | The only libraries we build are ICU, libffi, libiconv, libresolv, libsbuf, libutil, and libpcap. | 01:40:44 |
emily | though I guess we don't use the internal SDK for that | 01:40:47 |
emily | we build the Mach-O lib in dyld at least… | 01:41:10 |
emily | which has such annotations | 01:41:13 |
Randy Eckenrode | Most things that want to use private libpcap symbols re-declare the function definition. Only Apple bothers to use the private headers. | 01:41:26 |
Randy Eckenrode | It’s a static library that isn’t installed. | 01:41:57 |
Randy Eckenrode | I did that to avoid having the same lists of files for multiple executables. | 01:42:45 |
Randy Eckenrode | I do export the libdsc_extractor dylib though. | 01:43:14 |
emily | fwiw, the repos that mention SPI_AVAILABLE are: libpthread, libmalloc, xnu, mDNSResponder, dyld, Security, WebKit, libdispatch, WebCore, configd, libplatform, libpcap, IOKitUser, Libinfo, eap8021x, libffi | 01:44:33 |
emily | I think that the only time we'll be using headers with SPI_* stuff and not just wanting them to be elided (because we're building stuff ourselves and so it's available invariant of runtime OS version) is really just the xnu headers | 01:45:13 |
emily | funny header name: SecProtocolRestrictedOptionsGoAwayIfNotApprovedForEPSKsPriv.h | 01:45:28 |
samasaur | any idea why qt can't find Network.framework | 01:47:16 |
emily | uhh | 01:48:19 |
emily | did it -framework it? | 01:48:21 |
samasaur | https://github.com/qt/qtbase/blob/e902f8ad85a3a36b266f5e96bf3dc1ddad9fa18e/cmake/QtFrameworkHelpers.cmake#L42 | 01:48:34 |
samasaur | can't find it at configure time, not build time | 01:48:45 |
emily | have you looked at our Qt patches | 01:49:31 |
samasaur | oh dear | 01:49:42 |
