* locks: allow locks to work under high contention
This is a bug found by Harshitha Menon.
The `lock=None` line shouldn't be a release but should be
```
return (lock_type, None)
```
to inform the caller it couldn't get the lock type requested without
disturbing the existing lock object in the database. There were also a
couple of bugs due to taking write locks at the beginning without any
checking or release, and not releasing read locks before requeueing.
This version no longer gives me read upgrade to write errors, even
running 200 instances on one box.
* Change lock in check_deps_status to read, release if not installed,
not sure why this was ever write, but read definitely is more
appropriate here, and the read lock is only held out of the scope if
the package is installed.
* Release read lock before requeueing to reduce chance of livelock, the
timeout that caused the original issue now happens in roughly 3 of 200
workers instead of 199 on average.

This commit introduces the command
spack module tcl setdefault <package>
similar to the one already available for lmod
Co-authored-by: Massimiliano Culpo <massimiliano.culpo@gmail.com>
When running `spack install --log-format junit|cdash ...`, install
errors were ignored. This made spack continue building dependents of
failed install, ignoring `--fail-fast`, and exit 0 at the end.
* Prevent additional properties to be in the answer set when reusing specs
fixes#27237
The mechanism to reuse concrete specs relies on imposing
the set of constraints stemming from the concrete spec
being reused.
We also need to prevent that other constraints get added
to this set.
See #25249 and https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/27159#issuecomment-958163679.
This adds `spack load --list` as an alias for `spack find --loaded`. The new command is
not as powerful as `spack find --loaded`, as you can't combine it with all the queries or
formats that `spack find` provides. However, it is more intuitively located in the command
structure in that it appears in the output of `spack load --help`.
The idea here is that people can use `spack load --list` for simple stuff but fall back to
`spack find --loaded` if they need more.
- add help to `spack load --list` that references `spack find`
- factor some parts of `spack find` out to be called from `spack load`
- add shell tests
- update docs

Reformulate variant rules so that we minimize both
1. The number of non-default values being used
2. The number of default values not-being used
This is crucial for MV variants where we may have
more than one default value
In our tests, we use concrete specs generated from mock packages,
which *only* occur as inputs to the solver. This fixes two problems:
1. We weren't previously adding facts to encode the necessary
`depends_on()` relationships, and specs were unsatisfiable on
reachability.
2. Our hash lookup for reconstructing the DAG does not
consider that a hash may have come from the inputs.
Concrete specs that are already installed or that come from a buildcache
may have compilers and variant settings that we do not recognize, but that
shouldn't prevent reuse (at least not until we have a more detailed compiler
model).
- [x] make sure compiler and variant consistency rules only apply to
built specs
- [x] don't validate concrete specs on input, either -- they're concrete
and we shouldn't apply today's rules to yesterday's build
In switching to hash facts for concrete specs, we lost the transitive facts
from dependencies. This was fine for solves, because they were implied by
the imposed constraints from every hash. However, for `spack diff`, we want
to see what the hashes mean, so we need another mode for `spec_clauses()` to
show that.
This adds a `expand_hashes` argument to `spec_clauses()` that allows us to
output *both* the hashes and their implications on dependencies. We use
this mode in `spack diff`.
- [x] Get rid of forgotten maximize directive.
- [x] Simplify variant handling
- [x] Fix bug in treatment of defaults on externals (don't count
non-default variants on externals against them)
Variants in concrete specs are "always" correct -- or at least we assume
them to be b/c they were concretized before. Their variants need not match
the current version of the package.
Multi-valued variants previously maximized default values to handle
cases where the default contained two values, e.g.:
variant("foo", default="bar,baz")
This is because previously we were minimizing non-default values, and
`foo=bar`, `foo=baz`, and `foo=bar,baz` all had the same score, as
none of them had any "non-default" values.
This commit changes the approach and considers a non-default value
to be either a value set to something not default *or* the absence
of a default value from the set value. This allows multi- and
single-valued variants to be handled the same way, with the same
minimization criterion. It alse means that the "best" value for every
optimization criterion is now zero, which allows us to make useful
assumptions about the optimization criteria.
