show

s.t. we actually get to see where acquiring a lock failed even when not

Spack currently depends on parsing filenames of downloaded files to
determine what type of archive they are and how to decompress them.
This commit adds a preliminary check based on magic numbers to
determine archive type (but falls back on name parsing if the
extension type cannot be determined).
As part of this work, this commit also enables decompression of
.tar.xz-compressed archives on Windows.
53a7b49 created a reference error which broke `.libs` (and
`find_libraries`) for many packages. This fixes the reference
error and improves the testing for `find_libraries` by actually
checking the extension types of libraries that are retrieved by
the function.
Add a post-install step which runs (only) on Windows to modify an
install prefix, adding symlinks to all dependency libraries.
Windows does not have the same concept of RPATHs as Linux, but when
resolving symbols will check the local directory for dependency
libraries; by placing a symlink to each dependency library in the
directory with the library that needs it, the package can then
use all Spack-built dependencies.
Note:
* This collects dependency libraries based on Package.rpath, which
includes only direct link dependencies
* There is no examination of libraries to check what dependencies
they require, so all libraries of dependencies are symlinked
into any directory of the package which contains libraries
* Add two no-op jobs named "all-prechecks" and "all"
These are a suggestion from @tgamblin, they are stable named markers we
can use from gitlab and possibly for required checks to make CI more
resilient to refactors changing the names of specific checks.
* Enable parallel testing using xdist for unit testing in CI
* Normalize tmp paths to deal with macos
* add -u flag compatibility to spack python
As of now, it is accepted and ignored. The usage with xdist, where it
is invoked specifically by `python -u spack python` which is then passed
`-u` by xdist is the entire reason for doing this. It should never be
used without explicitly passing -u to the executing python interpreter.
* use spack python in xdist to support python 2
When running on python2, spack has many import cycles unless started
through main. To allow that, this uses `spack python` as the
interpreter, leveraging the `-u` support so xdist doesn't error out when
it unconditionally requests unbuffered binary IO.
* Use shutil.move to account for tmpdir being in a separate filesystem sometimes
* filesystem: use lstat in recursive mtime
When a `develop` path contains a dead symlink, the `os.stat` in the recursive `mtime` determination trips up over it.
Closes#32165.
This PR fixes the performance regression reported in #31985 and a few
other issues found while refactoring the spack mirror create command.
Modifications:
* (Primary) Do not require concretization for
`spack mirror create --all`
* Forbid using --versions-per-spec together with --all
* Fixed a few issues when reading specs from input file (specs were
not concretized, command would fail when trying to mirror
dependencies)
* Fix issue with default directory for spack mirror create not being
canonicalized
* Add more unit tests to poke spack mirror create
* Skip externals also when mirroring environments
* Changed slightly the wording for reporting (it was mentioning
"Successfully created" even in presence of errors)
* Fix issue with colify (was not called properly during error
reporting)
The goal of this PR is to make clearer where we need a package object in Spack as opposed to a package class.
We currently instantiate a lot of package objects when we could make do with a class. We should use the class
when we only need metadata, and we should only instantiate and us an instance of `PackageBase` at build time.
Modifications:
- [x] Remove the `spack.repo.get` convenience function (which was used in many places, and not really needed)
- [x] Use `spack.repo.path.get_pkg_class` wherever possible
- [x] Try to route most of the need for `spack.repo.path.get` through `Spec.package`
- [x] Introduce a non-data descriptor, that can be used as a decorator, to have "class level properties"
- [x] Refactor unit tests that had to be modified to reduce code duplication
- [x] `Spec.package` and `Repo.get` now require a concrete spec as input
- [x] Remove `RepoPath.all_packages` and `Repo.all_packages`
Most package installations include compressed source files. This
adds support for common archive types on Windows:
* Add support for using system 7zip functionality to decompress .Z
files when available (and on Windows, use 7zip for .xz archives)
* Default to using built-in Python support for tar/bz2 decompression
(note that Python tar documentation mentions preservation of file
permissions)
* Add tests for decompression support
* Extract logic for handling exploding archives (i.e. compressed
archives that expand to more than one base file) into an
exploding_archive_catch context manager in the filesystem module
Fixes missing chgrp on symlinks in package installations, and errors on
symlinks referencing non-existent or non-writable locations.
Note: `os.chown(.., follow_symlinks=False)` is python3 only, but
`os.lchown` exists in both versions.
When running on Windows, Spack may generate files in the stage/install
prefixes that do not have write permissions, which prevents the
removal of those directories (e.g. when cleaning stages or uninstalling).
There should be a refactoring to avoid this in the first place, but that
is assumed to be longer term, so the temporary fix is to make such files
writable if they are not. This PR:
* Automatically handles these permissions errors when uninstalling
packages from the Spack root (makes then writable)
* Updates similar already-existing logic when removing Spack-managed
stage directories (the error-handling was assuming all errors were
permissions errors and was therefore handling other errors
inappropriately)
Note: these permissions issues only appear on Windows so this logic is
only applied there (permissions are not modified for this purpose on
Linux etc.).
This also adds special handling for a case where calling `isdir`
on an `os.DirEntry` object would fail for improperly-created symlinks
(e.g. on Windows, using `os.symlink` without `target_is_directory=True`).
Note this specific issue only came up when enabling link_tree tests
(specifically `source_merge_visitor_cant_be_cyclical`).
Added support for finding the OpenCV package via the find external
command. Included support for identifying variants based on available
shared libraries.
Added support to finding the OpenBLAS package via the find external
command.
Enabled packages to show that they can be discovered via the find
external command in the info message.
Updated the OpenCV and OpenBLAS packages to use the extensible search
mechanism for library extensions on multiple OS platforms.
Corrected how find externals works on Darwin for OpenCV and OpenBLAS
to accommodate that the version numbers are placed before the file
extension instead of after it, as on Linux.

I tried to use --overwrite on nvhpc, but nvhpc's install size is 16GB. Seems
better to do os.rename in the same directory than moving the directory to
`/tmp`.
- [x] install --overwrite: use rename instead of tmpdir
- [x] use tempfile
The parent thread in the process stdout redirection logic on Windows
was closing a file that was being read in child thread, which lead to
error-based termination of the reader thread. This updates the
interaction to avoid the error.
* Extract the MetaPathFinder and Loaders for packages in their own classes
https://peps.python.org/pep-0451/
Currently, RepoPath and Repo implement the (deprecated) interface of
MetaPathFinder (find_module) and of Loader (load_module). This commit
extracts both of them and places the code in their own classes.
The MetaPathFinder interface is updated to contain both the deprecated
"find_module" (for Python 2.7 support) and the recommended "find_spec".
Update of the Loader interface is deferred at a subsequent commit.
* Move the lines to be prepended inside "RepoLoader"
Also adjust the naming of a few variables too
* Remove spack.util.imp, since code is only used in spack.repo
* Remove support from loading Python modules Python > 3 but < 3.5
* Remove `Repo._create_namespace`
This function was interacting badly with the MetaPathFinder
and causing issues with "normal" imports. Removing the
function allows to do things like:
```python
import spack.pkg.builtin.mpich
cls = spack.pkg.builtin.mpich.Mpich
```
* Remove code needed to trigger the Singleton evaluation
The finder is coded in a way to trigger the Singleton,
so we don't need external code now that we register it
at module level into `sys.meta_path`.
* Add unit tests
Allow declaring possible values for variants with an associated condition. If the variant takes one of those values, the condition is imposed as a further constraint.
The idea of this PR is to implement part of the mechanisms needed for modeling [packages with multiple build-systems]( https://github.com/spack/seps/pull/3). After this PR the build-system directive can be implemented as:
```python
variant(
'build-system',
default='cmake',
values=(
'autotools',
conditional('cmake', when='@X.Y:')
),
description='...',
)
```
Modifications:
- [x] Allow conditional possible values in variants
- [x] Add a unit-test for the feature
- [x] Add documentation
Update "spack external find --all" to also find library-only packages.
A Package can add a ".libraries" attribute, which is a list of regular
expressions to use to find libraries associated with the Package.
"spack external find --all" will search LD_LIBRARY_PATH for potential
libraries.
This PR adds examples for NCCL, RCCL, and hipblas packages. These
examples specify the suffix ".so" for the regular expressions used
to find libraries, so generally are only useful for detecting library
packages on Linux.
* Add pl2bat to PATH: Windows on Perl requires the script pl2bat.bat
and Perl to be available to the installer via the PATH. The build
and dependent environments of Perl on Windows have the install
prefix bin added to the PATH.
* symlink with win32file module instead of using Executable to
call mklink (mklink is a shell function and so is not accessible
in this manner).
We shouldn't be using "remove_linked_tree" to remove the lock file,
since that function expects to receive a directory path as an
argument.
Also, as a further measure to avoid regression, this commit restores
the "ignore_errors=True" argument on linux and adds a unit test
checking that "remove_linked_tree" doesn't change file permissions
as a side effect of a failure to remove.
Reduces the number of stat calls to a bare minimum:
- Single pass over src prefixes
- Handle projection clashes in memory
Symlinked directories in the src prefixes are now conditionally
transformed into directories with symlinks in the dst dir. Notably
`intel-mkl`, `cuda` and `qt` has top-level symlinked directories that
previously resulted in empty directories in the view. We now avoid
cycles and possible exponential blowup by only expanding symlinks that:
- point to dirs deeper in the folder structure;
- are a fixed depth of 2.
`file` was used to detect Python scripts with shebangs, so that the interpreter could be changed from <python prefix> to <view path>. With this change, we detect shebangs using Python instead, so that `file` is no longer required.
Consolidate Spack's internal filepath logic to a select
few places and refactor to consistent internal useage of
os.path utilities. Creates a prefix, and a series of utilities
in the path utility module that facilitate handling paths
in a platform agnostic manner.

Change the internal representation of `Spec` to allow for multiple dependencies or
dependents stemming from the same package. This change permits to represent cases
which are frequent in cross compiled environments or to bootstrap compilers.
Modifications:
- [x] Substitute `DependencyMap` with `_EdgeMap`. The main differences are that the
latter does not support direct item assignment and can be modified only through its
API. It also provides a `select_by` method to query items.
- [x] Reworked a few public APIs of `Spec` to get list of dependencies or related edges.
- [x] Added unit tests to prevent regression on #11983 and prove the synthetic construction
of specs with multiple deps from the same package.
Since #22845 went in first, this PR reuses that format and thus it should not change hashes.
The same package may be present multiple times in the list of dependencies with different
associated specs (each with its own hash).
* environment.py: allow link:run
Some users want minimal views, excluding run-type dependencies, since
those type of dependencies are covered by rpaths and the symlinked
libraries in the view aren't used anyways.
With this change, an environment like this:
```
spack:
specs: ['py-flake8']
view:
default:
root: view
link: run
```
includes python packages and python, but no link type deps of python.
We can see what is in the bootstrap store with `spack find -b`, and you can clean it with `spack
clean -b`, but we can't do much else with it, and if there are bootstrap issues they can be hard to
debug.
We already have `spack --mock`, which allows you to swap in the mock packages from the command
line. This PR introduces `spack -b` / `spack --bootstrap`, which runs all of spack with
`ensure_bootstrap_configuration()` set. This means that you can run `spack -b find`, `spack -b
install`, `spack -b spec`, etc. to see what *would* happen with bootstrap configuration, to remove
specific bootstrap packages, etc. This will hopefully make developers' lives easier as they deal
with bootstrap packages.
This PR also uses a `nullcontext` context manager. `nullcontext` has been implemented in several
other places in Spack, and this PR consolidates them to `llnl.util.lang`, with a note that we can
delete the function if we ever reqyire a new enough Python.
- [x] introduce `spack --bootstrap` option
- [x] consolidated all `nullcontext` usages to `llnl.util.lang`
Modifications:
- [x] Removed `centos:6` unit test, adjusted vermin checks
- [x] Removed backport of `collections.OrderedDict`
- [x] Removed backport of `functools.total_ordering`
- [x] Removed Python 2.6 specific skip markers in unit tests
- [x] Fixed a few minor Python 2.6 related TODOs in code
Updating the vendored dependencies will be done in separate PRs
This PR permits to specify the `url` and `ref` of the Spack instance used in a container recipe simply by expanding the YAML schema as outlined in #20442:
```yaml
container:
images:
os: amazonlinux:2
spack:
ref: develop
resolve_sha: true
```
The `resolve_sha` option, if true, verifies the `ref` by cloning the Spack repository in a temporary directory and transforming any tag or branch name to a commit sha. When this new ability is leveraged an additional "bootstrap" stage is added, which builds an image with Spack setup and ready to install software. The Spack repository to be used can be customized with the `url` keyword under `spack`.
Modifications:
- [x] Permit to pin the version of Spack, either by branch or tag or sha
- [x] Added a few new OSes (centos:8, amazonlinux:2, ubuntu:20.04, alpine:3, cuda:11.2.1)
- [x] Permit to print the bootstrap image as a standalone
- [x] Add documentation on the new part of the schema
- [x] Add unit tests for different use cases
* py-vermin: add latest version 1.3.1
* Exclude line from Vermin since version is already being checked for
Vermin 1.3.1 finds that `encoding` kwarg of builtin `open()` requires Python 3+.
Installing packages with a lot of dependencies does not have an easy way
of judging the current progress (apart from running `spack spec -I pkg`
in another terminal). This change allows Spack to update the terminal's
title with status information, including its current progress as well as
information about the current and total number of packages.
Spack has logic to preserve an installation prefix when it is being
overwritten: if the new install fails, the old files are restored.
This PR adds error handling for when this backup restoration fails
(i.e. the new install fails, and then some unexpected error prevents
restoration from the backup).
* Make sure PackageInstaller does not remove the just-restored
install dir after failure in spack install --overwrite
* Remove cryptic error message and rethrow actual error
This adds lockfile tracking to Spack's lock mechanism, so that we ensure that there
is only one open file descriptor per inode.
The `fcntl` locks that Spack uses are associated with an inode and a process.
This is convenient, because if a process exits, it releases its locks.
Unfortunately, this also means that if you close a file, *all* locks associated
with that file's inode are released, regardless of whether the process has any
other open file descriptors on it.
Because of this, we need to track open lock files so that we only close them when
a process no longer needs them. We do this by tracking each lockfile by its
inode and process id. This has several nice properties:
1. Tracking by pid ensures that, if we fork, we don't inadvertently track the parent
process's lockfiles. `fcntl` locks are not inherited across forks, so we'll
just track new lockfiles in the child.
2. Tracking by inode ensures that referencs are counted per inode, and that we don't
inadvertently close a file whose inode still has open locks.
3. Tracking by both pid and inode ensures that we only open lockfiles the minimum
number of times necessary for the locks we have.
Note: as mentioned elsewhere, these locks aren't thread safe -- they're designed to
work in Python and assume the GIL.
Tasks:
- [x] Introduce an `OpenFileTracker` class to track open file descriptors by inode.
- [x] Reference-count open file descriptors and only close them if they're no longer
needed (this avoids inadvertently releasing locks that should not be released).
* Refactor active environment getters
- Make `spack.environment.active_environment` a trivial getter for the active
environment, replacing `spack.environment.get_env` when the arguments are
not needed
- New method `spack.cmd.require_active_environment(cmd_name)` for
commands that require an environment (rather than abusing
get_env/active_environment)
- Clean up calling code to call spack.environment.active_environment or
spack.cmd.require_active_environment as appropriate
- Remove the `-e` parsing from `active_environment`, because `main.py` is
responsible for processing `-e` and already activates the environment.
- Move `spack.environment.find_environment` to
`spack.cmd.find_environment`, to avoid having spack.environment aware
of argparse.
- Refactor `spack install` command so argument parsing is all handled in the
command, no argparse in spack.environment or spack.installer
- Update documentation
* Python 2: toplevel import errors only with 'as ev'
In two files, `import spack.environment as ev` leads to errors
These errors are not well understood ("'module' object has no attribute
'environment'"). All other files standardize on the above syntax.
This is both a bugfix and a generalization of #25168. In #25168, we attempted to filter padding
*just* from the debug output of `spack.util.executable.Executable` objects. It turns out we got it
wrong -- filtering the command line string instead of the arg list resulted in output like this:
```
==> [2021-08-05-21:34:19.918576] ["'", '/', 'b', 'i', 'n', '/', 't', 'a', 'r', "'", ' ', "'", '-', 'o', 'x', 'f', "'", ' ', "'", '/', 't', 'm', 'p', '/', 'r', 'o', 'o', 't', '/', 's', 'p', 'a', 'c', 'k', '-', 's', 't', 'a', 'g', 'e', '/', 's', 'p', 'a', 'c', 'k', '-', 's', 't', 'a', 'g', 'e', '-', 'p', 'a', 't', 'c', 'h', 'e', 'l', 'f', '-', '0', '.', '1', '3', '-', 'w', 'p', 'h', 'p', 't', 'l', 'h', 'w', 'u', 's', 'e', 'i', 'a', '4', 'k', 'p', 'g', 'y', 'd', 'q', 'l', 'l', 'i', '2', '4', 'q', 'b', '5', '5', 'q', 'u', '4', '/', 'p', 'a', 't', 'c', 'h', 'e', 'l', 'f', '-', '0', '.', '1', '3', '.', 't', 'a', 'r', '.', 'b', 'z', '2', "'"]
```
Additionally, plenty of builds output padded paths in other plcaes -- e.g., not just command
arguments, but in other `tty` messages via `llnl.util.filesystem` and other places. `Executable`
isn't really the right place for this.
This PR reverts the changes to `Executable` and moves the filtering into `llnl.util.tty`. There is
now a context manager there that you can use to install a filter for all output.
`spack.installer.build_process()` now uses this context manager to make `tty` do path filtering
when padding is enabled.
- [x] revert filtering in `Executable`
- [x] add ability for `tty` to filter output
- [x] install output filter in `build_process()`
- [x] tests
The output order for `spack diff` is nondeterministic for larger diffs -- if you
ran it several times it will not put the fields in the spec in the same order on
successive invocations.
This makes a few fixes to `spack diff`:
- [x] Implement the change discussed in https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/22283#discussion_r598337448
to make `AspFunction` comparable in and of itself and to eliminate the need for `to_tuple()`
- [x] Sort the lists of diff properties so that the output is always in the same order.
- [x] Make the output for different fields the same as what we use in the solver. Previously, we
would use `Type(value)` for non-string values and `value` for strings. Now we just use
the value. So the output looks a little cleaner:
```
== Old ========================== == New ====================

I suppose if we want to use `repr()` in the output we could do that and could be
consistent but we don't do that elsewhere -- the types of things in Specs are
all stringifiable so the string and the name of the attribute (`version`, `node_os`,
etc.) are sufficient to know what they are.
Spack allows users to set `padded_length` to pad out the installation path in
build farms so that any binaries created are more easily relocatable. The issue
with this is that the padding dominates installation output and makes it
difficult to see what is going on. The padding also causes logs to easily
exceed size limits for things like GitLab artifacts.
This PR fixes this by adding a filter in the logger daemon. If you use a
setting like this:
config:
install_tree:
padded_length: 512
Then lines like this in the output:
==> [2021-06-23-15:59:05.020387] './configure' '--prefix=/Users/gamblin2/padding-log-test/opt/__spack_path_placeholder__/__spack_path_placeholder__/__spack_path_placeholder__/__spack_path_placeholder__/__spack_path_placeholder__/__spack_path_placeholder__/__spack_path_placeholder__/__spack_path_placeholder__/__spack_path_placeholder__/__spack_path_placeholder__/__spack_path_placeholder__/__spack_path_placeholder__/__spack_path_placeholder__/__spack_path_placeholder__/__spack_path_placeholder__/__spack_path_placeholder__/__spack_path_placeholder__/__spack_path_pla/darwin-bigsur-skylake/apple-clang-12.0.5/zlib-1.2.11-74mwnxgn6nujehpyyalhwizwojwn5zga

You can see that the padding has been replaced with `[padded-to-512-chars]` to
indicate the total number of characters in the padded prefix. Over a long log
file, this should save a lot of space and allow us to see error messages in
GitHub/GitLab log output.
The *actual* build logs still have full paths in them. Also lines that are
output by Spack and not by a package build are not filtered and will still
display the fully padded path. There aren't that many of these, so the change
should still help reduce file size and readability quite a bit.
* fix remaining flake8 errors
* imports: sort imports everywhere in Spack
We enabled import order checking in #23947, but fixing things manually drives
people crazy. This used `spack style --fix --all` from #24071 to automatically
sort everything in Spack so PR submitters won't have to deal with it.
This should go in after #24071, as it assumes we're using `isort`, not
`flake8-import-order` to order things. `isort` seems to be more flexible and
allows `llnl` mports to be in their own group before `spack` ones, so this
seems like a good switch.
* util.tty.log: read up to 100 lines if ready
Rework to read up to 100 lines from the captured stdin as long as data
is ready to be read immediately. Adds a helper function to poll with
`select` for ready data. This showed a roughly 5-10x perf improvement
for high-rate writes through the logger with relatively short lines.
* util.tty.log: Defer flushes to end of ready reads
Rather than flush per line, flush per set of reads. Since this is a
non-blocking loop, the total perceived wait is short.
* util.tty.log: only scan each line once, usually
Rather than always find all control characters then substitute them all,
use `subn` to count the number of control characters replaced. Only if
control characters exist find out what they are. This could be made
truly single pass with sub with a function, but it's a more intrusive
change and this got 99%ish of the performance improvement (roughly
another 2x in some cases).
* util.tty.log: remove check for `readable`
Python < 3 does not support a readable check on streams, should not be
necessary here since we control the only use and it's explicitly a
stream to be read.
The loading protocol mandates that the the module we are going
to import needs to be already in sys.modules before its code is
executed, so to prevent unbounded recursions and multiple loading.
Loading a module from file exits early if the module is already
in sys.modules
In debug mode, processes taking an exclusive lock write out their node name to
the lock file. We were using `getfqdn()` for this, but it seems to produce
inconsistent results when used from within some github actions containers.
We get this error because getfqdn() seems to return a short name in one place
and a fully qualified name in another:
```
File "/home/runner/work/spack/spack/lib/spack/spack/test/llnl/util/lock.py", line 1211, in p1

This seems to stem from https://bugs.python.org/issue5004.
We don't really need to get a fully qualified hostname for debugging, so use
`gethostname()` because its results are more consistent. This seems to fix the
issue.

We set LC_ALL=C to encourage a build process to generate ASCII
output (so our logger daemon can decode it). Most packages
respect this but it appears that intel-oneapi-compilers does
not in some cases (see #22813). This reads the output of the build
process as UTF-8, which still works if the build process respects
LC_ALL=C but also works if the process generates UTF-8 output.
For Python >= 3.7 all files are opened with UTF-8 encoding by
default. Python 2 does not support the encoding argument on
'open', so to support Python 2 the files would have to be
opened in byte mode and explicitly decoded (as a side note,
this would be the only way to handle other encodings without
being informed of them in advance).
We have been using the `@llnl.util.lang.key_ordering` decorator for specs
and most of their components. This leverages the fact that in Python,
tuple comparison is lexicographic. It allows you to implement a
`_cmp_key` method on your class, and have `__eq__`, `__lt__`, etc.
implemented automatically using that key. For example, you might use
tuple keys to implement comparison, e.g.:
```python
class Widget:
# author implements this
def _cmp_key(self):
return (
self.a,
self.b,
(self.c, self.d),
self.e
)
# operators are generated by @key_ordering
def __eq__(self, other):
return self._cmp_key() == other._cmp_key()
def __lt__(self):
return self._cmp_key() < other._cmp_key()
# etc.
```
The issue there for simple comparators is that we have to bulid the
tuples *and* we have to generate all the values in them up front. When
implementing comparisons for large data structures, this can be costly.
This PR replaces `@key_ordering` with a new decorator,
`@lazy_lexicographic_ordering`. Lazy lexicographic comparison maps the
tuple comparison shown above to generator functions. Instead of comparing
based on pre-constructed tuple keys, users of this decorator can compare
using elements from a generator. So, you'd write:
```python
@lazy_lexicographic_ordering
class Widget:
def _cmp_iter(self):
yield a
yield b
def cd_fun():
yield c
yield d
yield cd_fun
yield e
# operators are added by decorator (but are a bit more complex)
There are no tuples that have to be pre-constructed, and the generator
does not have to complete. Instead of tuples, we simply make functions
that lazily yield what would've been in the tuple. If a yielded value is
a `callable`, the comparison functions will call it and recursively
compar it. The comparator just walks the data structure like you'd expect
it to.
The ``@lazy_lexicographic_ordering`` decorator handles the details of
implementing comparison operators, and the ``Widget`` implementor only
has to worry about writing ``_cmp_iter``, and making sure the elements in
it are also comparable.
Using this PR shaves another 1.5 sec off the runtime of `spack buildcache
list`, and it also speeds up Spec comparison by about 30%. The runtime
improvement comes mostly from *not* calling `hash()` `_cmp_iter()`.
Sometimes we need to patch a file that is a dependency for some other
automatically generated file that comes in a release tarball. As a
result, make tries to regenerate the dependent file using additional
tools (e.g. help2man), which would not be needed otherwise.
In some cases, it's preferable to avoid that (e.g. see #21255). A way
to do that is to save the modification timestamps before patching and
restoring them afterwards. This PR introduces a context wrapper that
does that.

- [x] add `concretize.lp`, `spack.yaml`, etc. to licensed files
- [x] update all licensed files to say 2013-2021 using
`spack license update-copyright-year`
- [x] appease mypy with some additions to package.py that needed
for oneapi.py
I lost my mind a bit after getting the completion stuff working and
decided to get Mypy working for spack as well. This adds a
`.mypy.ini` that checks all of the spack and llnl modules, though
not yet packages, and fixes all of the identified missing types and
type issues for the spack library.
In addition to these changes, this includes:
* rename `spack flake8` to `spack style`
Aliases flake8 to style, and just runs flake8 as before, but with
a warning. The style command runs both `flake8` and `mypy`,
in sequence. Added --no-<tool> options to turn off one or the
other, they are on by default. Fixed two issues caught by the tools.
* stub typing module for python2.x
We don't support typing in Spack for python 2.x. To allow 2.x to
support `import typing` and `from typing import ...` without a
try/except dance to support old versions, this adds a stub module
*just* for python 2.x. Doing it this way means we can only reliably
use all type hints in python3.7+, and mypi.ini has been updated to
reflect that.
* add non-default black check to spack style
This is a first step to requiring black. It doesn't enforce it by
default, but it will check it if requested. Currently enforcing the
line length of 79 since that's what flake8 requires, but it's a bit odd
for a black formatted project to be quite that narrow. All settings are
in the style command since spack has no pyproject.toml and I don't
want to add one until more discussion happens. Also re-format
`style.py` since it no longer passed the black style check
with the new length.
* use style check in github action
Update the style and docs action to use `spack style`, adding in mypy
and black to the action even if it isn't running black right now.
Users can add test() methods to their packages to run smoke tests on
installations with the new `spack test` command (the old `spack test` is
now `spack unit-test`). spack test is environment-aware, so you can
`spack install` an environment and then run `spack test run` to run smoke
tests on all of its packages. Historical test logs can be perused with
`spack test results`. Generic smoke tests for MPI implementations, C,
C++, and Fortran compilers as well as specific smoke tests for 18
packages.
Inside the test method, individual tests can be run separately (and
continue to run best-effort after a test failure) using the `run_test`
method. The `run_test` method encapsulates finding test executables,
running and checking return codes, checking output, and error handling.
This handles the following trickier aspects of testing with direct
support in Spack's package API:
- [x] Caching source or intermediate build files at build time for
use at test time.
- [x] Test dependencies,
- [x] packages that require a compiler for testing (such as library only
packages).
See the packaging guide for more details on using Spack testing support.
Included is support for package.py files for virtual packages. This does
not change the Spack interface, but is a major change in internals.

Spack creates a separate process to do package installation. Different
operating systems and Python versions use different methods to create
it but up until Python 3.8 both Linux and Mac OS used "fork" (which
duplicates process memory, file descriptor table, etc.).
Python >= 3.8 on Mac OS prefers creating an entirely new process
(referred to as the "spawn" start method) because "fork" was found to
cause issues (in other words "spawn" is the default start method used
by multiprocessing.Process). Spack was dependent on the particular
behavior of fork to replicate process memory and transmit file
descriptors.
This PR refactors the Spack internals to support starting a child
process with the "spawn" method. To achieve this, it makes the
following changes:
- ensure that the package repository and other global state are
transmitted to the child process
- ensure that file descriptors are transmitted to the child process in
a way that works with multiprocessing and spawn
- make all the state needed for the build process and tests picklable
(package, stage, etc.)
- move a number of locally-defined functions into global scope so that
they can be pickled
- rework tests where needed to avoid using local functions
This PR also reworks sbang tests to work on macOS, where temporary
directories are deeper than the Linux sbang limit. We make the limit
platform-dependent (macOS supports 512-character shebangs)

When writing an environment, there are cases where the lock file for
the environment may be removed. In this case there was a period
between removing the lock file and writing the new manifest file
where an exception could leave the manifest in its old state (in
which case the lock and manifest would be out of sync).
This adds a context manager which is used to restore the prior lock
file state in cases where the manifest file cannot be written.
As detailed in https://bugs.python.org/issue33725, starting new
processes with 'fork' on Mac OS is not guaranteed to work in general.
As of Python 3.8 the default process spawning mechanism was changed
to avoid this issue.
Spack depends on the fork-based method to preserve file descriptors
transparently, to preserve global state, and to avoid pickling some
objects. An effort is underway to remove dependence on fork-based
process spawning (see #18205). In the meantime, this allows Spack to
run with Python 3.8 on Mac OS by explicitly choosing to use 'fork'.

Some of the feature flags are named differently and clwb is missing on
my i7-1065G7. cascadelake and cannonlake might have similar problems but
I do not have access to those architectures to test.
The YAML config for paths and modules of external packages has
changed: the new format allows a single spec to load multiple
modules. Spack will automatically convert from the old format
when reading the configs (the updates do not add new essential
properties, so this change in Spack is backwards-compatible).
With this update, Spack cannot modify existing configs/environments
without updating them (e.g. “spack config add” will fail if the
configuration is in a format that predates this PR). The user is
prompted to do this explicitly and commands are provided. All
config scopes can be updated at once. Each environment must be
updated one at a time.

After migrating to `travis-ci.com`, we saw I/O issues in our tests --
tests that relied on `capfd` and `capsys` were failing. We've also seen
this in GitHub actions, and it's kept us from switching to them so far.
Turns out that the issue is that using streams like `sys.stdout` as
default arguments doesn't play well with `pytest` and output redirection,
as `pytest` changes the values of `sys.stdout` and `sys.stderr`. if these
values are evaluated before output redirection (as they are when used as
default arg values), output won't be captured properly later.
- [x] replace all stream default arg values with `None`, and only assign stream
values inside functions.
- [x] fix tests we didn't notice were relying on this erroneous behavior
Makes the following changes:
* (Fixes#15620) tty configuration was failing when stdout was
redirected. The implementation now creates a pseudo terminal for
stdin and checks stdout properly, so redirections of stdin/out/err
should be handled now.
* Handles terminal configuration when the Spack process moves between
the foreground and background (possibly multiple times) during a
build.
* Spack adjusts terminal settings to allow users to to enable/disable
build process output to the terminal using a "v" toggle, abnormal
exit cases (like CTRL-C) could leave the terminal in an unusable
state. This is addressed here with a special-case handler which
restores terminal settings.
Significantly extend testing of process output logger:
* New PseudoShell object for setting up a master and child process
and configuring file descriptor inheritance between the two
* Tests for "v" verbosity toggle making use of the added PseudoShell
object
* Added `uniq` function which takes a list of elements and replaces
any consecutive sequence of duplicate elements with a single
instance (e.g. "112211" -> "121")

Spack currently cannot run as a background process uninterrupted because some of the logging functions used in the install method (especially to create the dynamic verbosity toggle with the v key) cause the OS to issue a SIGTTOU to Spack when it's backgrounded.
This PR puts the necessary gatekeeping in place so that Spack doesn't do anything that will cause a signal to stop the process when operating as a background process.
Sometimes one needs to preserve the (relative order) of
mtimes on installed files. So it's better to just copy
over all the metadata from the source tree to the install
tree. If permissions need fixing, that will be done anyway
afterwards.
One major use case are resource()s:
They're unpacked in one place and then copied to their
final place using install_tree(). If the resource is a
source tree using autoconf/automake, resetting mtimes
uncorrectly might force unwanted autoconf/etc calls.
Fixes#9394Closes#13217.
## Background
Spack provides the ability to enable/disable parallel builds through two options: package `parallel` and configuration `build_jobs`. This PR changes the algorithm to allow multiple, simultaneous processes to coordinate the installation of the same spec (and specs with overlapping dependencies.).
The `parallel` (boolean) property sets the default for its package though the value can be overridden in the `install` method.
Spack's current parallel builds are limited to build tools supporting `jobs` arguments (e.g., `Makefiles`). The number of jobs actually used is calculated as`min(config:build_jobs, # cores, 16)`, which can be overridden in the package or on the command line (i.e., `spack install -j <# jobs>`).
This PR adds support for distributed (single- and multi-node) parallel builds. The goals of this work include improving the efficiency of installing packages with many dependencies and reducing the repetition associated with concurrent installations of (dependency) packages.
## Approach
### File System Locks
Coordination between concurrent installs of overlapping packages to a Spack instance is accomplished through bottom-up dependency DAG processing and file system locks. The runs can be a combination of interactive and batch processes affecting the same file system. Exclusive prefix locks are required to install a package while shared prefix locks are required to check if the package is installed.
Failures are communicated through a separate exclusive prefix failure lock, for concurrent processes, combined with a persistent store, for separate, related build processes. The resulting file contains the failing spec to facilitate manual debugging.
### Priority Queue
Management of dependency builds changed from reliance on recursion to use of a priority queue where the priority of a spec is based on the number of its remaining uninstalled dependencies.
Using a queue required a change to dependency build exception handling with the most visible issue being that the `install` method *must* install something in the prefix. Consequently, packages can no longer get away with an install method consisting of `pass`, for example.
## Caveats
- This still only parallelizes a single-rooted build. Multi-rooted installs (e.g., for environments) are TBD in a future PR.
Tasks:
- [x] Adjust package lock timeout to correspond to value used in the demo
- [x] Adjust database lock timeout to reduce contention on startup of concurrent
`spack install <spec>` calls
- [x] Replace (test) package's `install: pass` methods with file creation since post-install
`sanity_check_prefix` will otherwise error out with `Install failed .. Nothing was installed!`
- [x] Resolve remaining existing test failures
- [x] Respond to alalazo's initial feedback
- [x] Remove `bin/demo-locks.py`
- [x] Add new tests to address new coverage issues
- [x] Replace built-in package's `def install(..): pass` to "install" something
(i.e., only `apple-libunwind`)
- [x] Increase code coverage

This PR adds a `--format=bash` option to `spack commands` to
auto-generate the Bash programmable tab completion script. It can be
extended to work for other shells.
Progress:
- [x] Fix bug in superclass initialization in `ArgparseWriter`
- [x] Refactor `ArgparseWriter` (see below)
- [x] Ensure that output of old `--format` options remains the same
- [x] Add `ArgparseCompletionWriter` and `BashCompletionWriter`
- [x] Add `--aliases` option to add command aliases
- [x] Standardize positional argument names
- [x] Tests for `spack commands --format=bash` coverage
- [x] Tests to make sure `spack-completion.bash` stays up-to-date
- [x] Tests for `spack-completion.bash` coverage
- [x] Speed up `spack-completion.bash` by caching subroutine calls
This PR also necessitates a significant refactoring of
`ArgparseWriter`. Previously, `ArgparseWriter` was mostly a single
`_write` method which handled everything from extracting the information
we care about from the parser to formatting the output. Now, `_write`
only handles recursion, while the information extraction is split into a
separate `parse` method, and the formatting is handled by `format`. This
allows subclasses to completely redefine how the format will appear
without overriding all of `_write`.

`PackagePrefs` has had a class-level cache of data from `packages.yaml` for
a long time, but it complicates testing and leads to subtle errors,
especially now that we frequently manipulate custom config scopes and
environments.
Moving the cache to instance-level doesn't slow down concretization or
the test suite, and it just caches for the life of a `PackagePrefs`
instance (i.e., for a single cocncretization) so we don't need to worry
about global state anymore.
- [x] Remove class-level caches from `PackagePrefs`
- [x] Add a cached _spec_order object on each `PackagePrefs` instance
- [x] Remove all calls to `PackagePrefs.clear_caches()`
Commands like `spack blame` were printig poorly when redirected to files,
as colify reverts to a single column when redirected. This works for
list data but not tables.
- [x] Force a table by always passing `tty=True` from `colify_table()`
This commit removes the `python_version.py` unit test module
and the vendored dependencies `pyqver2.py` and `pyqver3.py`.
It substitutes them with an equivalent check done using
`vermin` that is run as a separate workflow via Github Actions.
This allows us to delete 2 vendored dependencies that are unmaintained
and substitutes them with a maintained tool.
Also, updates the list of vendored dependencies.
Our `LockTransaction` class was reading overly aggressively. In cases
like this:
```
1 with spack.store.db.read_transaction():
2 with spack.store.db.write_transaction():
3 ...
```
The `ReadTransaction` on line 1 would read in the DB, but the
WriteTransaction on line 2 would read in the DB *again*, even though we
had a read lock the whole time. `WriteTransaction`s were only
considering nested writes to decide when to read, but they didn't know
when we already had a read lock.
- [x] `Lock.acquire_write()` return `False` in cases where we already had
a read lock.
If a write transaction was nested inside a read transaction, it would not
write properly on release, e.g., in a sequence like this, inside our
`LockTransaction` class:
```
1 with spack.store.db.read_transaction():
2 with spack.store.db.write_transaction():
3 ...
4 with spack.store.db.read_transaction():
...
```
The WriteTransaction on line 2 had no way of knowing that its
`__exit__()` call was the last *write* in the nesting, and it would skip
calling its write function.
The `__exit__()` call of the `ReadTransaction` on line 1 wouldn't know
how to write, and the file would never be written.
The DB would be correct in memory, but the `ReadTransaction` on line 4
would re-read the whole DB assuming that other processes may have
modified it. Since the DB was never written, we got stale data.
- [x] Make `Lock.release_write()` return `True` whenever we release the
*last write* in a nest.
Lock transactions were actually writing *after* the lock was
released. The code was looking at the result of `release_write()` before
writing, then writing based on whether the lock was released. This is
pretty obviously wrong.
- [x] Refactor `Lock` so that a release function can be passed to the
`Lock` and called *only* when a lock is really released.
- [x] Refactor `LockTransaction` classes to use the release function
instead of checking the return value of `release_read()` / `release_write()`
Vendors for ARM come out of `/proc/cpuinfo` as hex numbers instead of readable strings.

Since the backup file is only created on the first invocation, it will
contain the original file without any modifications. Further invocations
will then read the backup file, effectively reverting prior invocations.
This can be reproduced easily by trying to install likwid, which will
try to install into /usr/local. Work around this by creating a temporary
file to read from.
* This updates stage names to use "spack-stage-" as a prefix.
This avoids removing non-Spack directories in "spack clean" as
c141e99 did (in this case so long as they don't contain the
prefix "spack-stage-"), and also addresses a follow-up issue
where Spack stage directories were not removed.
* Spack now does more-stringent checking of expected permissions for
staging directories. For a given stage root that includes a user
component, all directories before the user component that are
created by Spack are expected to match the permissions of their
parent; the user component and all deeper directories are expected
to be accessible to the user (read/write/execute).
This feature generates a verification manifest for each installed
package and provides a command, "spack verify", which can be used to
compare the current file checksums/permissions with those calculated
at installed time.
Verification includes
* Checksums of files
* File permissions
* Modification time
* File size
Packages installed before this PR will be skipped during verification.
To verify such a package you must reinstall it.
The spack verify command has three modes.
* With the -a,--all option it will check every installed package.
* With the -f,--files option, it will check some specific files,
determine which package they belong to, and confirm that they have
not been changed.
* With the -s,--specs option or by default, it will check some
specific packages that no files havae changed.
From Python docs:
--
'surrogateescape' will represent any incorrect bytes as code points in
the Unicode Private Use Area ranging from U+DC80 to U+DCFF. These
private code points will then be turned back into the same bytes when
the surrogateescape error handler is used when writing data. This is
useful for processing files in an unknown encoding.
--
This will allow us to process files with unknown encodings.
To accommodate the case of self-extracting bash scripts, filter_file
can now stop filtering text input if a certain marker is found. The
marker must be passed at call time via the "stop_at" function argument.
At that point the file will be reopened in binary mode and copied
verbatim.
* use "surrogateescape" error handling to ignore unknown chars
* permit to stop filtering if a marker is found
* add unit tests for non-ASCII and mixed text/binary files
Both floating-point and NEON are required in all standard ARMv8
implementations. Theoretically though specialized markets can support
no NEON or floating-point at all. Source:
https://developer.arm.com/docs/den0024/latest/aarch64-floating-point-and-neon
On the other hand the base procedure call standard for Aarch64
"assumes the availability of the vector registers for passing
floating-point and SIMD arguments". Further "the Arm 64-bit
architecture defines two mandatory register banks: a general-purpose
register bank which can be used for scalar integer processing and
pointer arithmetic; and a SIMD and Floating-Point register bank".

https://developer.arm.com/docs/ihi0055/latest/procedure-call-standard-for-the-arm-64-bit-architecture
This makes customization of Aarch64 with no NEON instruction set
available so unlikely that we can consider them a feature of the
generic family.
The output of subprocess.check_output is a byte string in Python 3. This causes dictionary lookup to fail later on.
A try-except around this function prevented this error from being noticed. Removed this so that more errors can propagate out.
* microarchitectures: zen starts from x86_64, not from excavator
* Unit tests: fixed a test that is wrong with the new modeling
* microarchitectures: fixed features and inheritance for 15h family
bulldozer doesn't inherit from barcelona (10h) + added xop, lwp and tbm
instruction sets to the 15h family (it distinguish the family from 17h)
- This is needed to support Cray machines -- we need an architecture
mic_knl > x86_64
- We used Cray's naming scheme for this target to make it work seamlessly
with the module-based detection sccheme on Cray. mic_knl is pretty
much dead, so this will be the last succh target. We will need to work
wtih Cray and other vendors in the future.
Spack can now:
- label ppc64, ppc64le, x86_64, etc. builds with specific
microarchitecture-specific names, like 'haswell', 'skylake' or
'icelake'.
- detect the host architecture of a machine from /proc/cpuinfo or similar
tools.
- Understand which microarchitectures are compatible with which (for
binary reuse)
- Understand which compiler flags are needed (for GCC, so far) to build
binaries for particular microarchitectures.
All of this is managed through a JSON file (microarchitectures.json) that
contains detailed auto-detection, compiler flag, and compatibility
information for specific microarchitecture targets. The `llnl.util.cpu`
module implements a library that allows detection and comparison of
microarchitectures based on the data in this file.
The `target` part of Spack specs is now essentially a Microarchitecture
object, and Specs' targets can be compared for compatibility as well.
This allows us to label optimized binary packages at a granularity that
enables them to be reused on compatible machines. Previously, we only
knew that a package was built for x86_64, NOT which x86_64 machines it
was usable on.
Currently this feature supports Intel, Power, and AMD chips. Support for
ARM is forthcoming.
Specifics:
- Add microarchitectures.json with descriptions of architectures
- Relaxed semantic of compiler's "target" attribute. Before this change
the semantic to check if a compiler could be viable for a given target
was exact match. This made sense as the finest granularity of targets
was architecture families. As now we can target micro-architectures,
this commit changes the semantic by interpreting as the architecture
family what is stored in the compiler's "target" attribute. A compiler
is then a viable choice if the target being concretized belongs to the
same family. Similarly when a new compiler is detected the architecture
family is stored in the "target" attribute.
- Make Spack's `cc` compiler wrapper inject target-specific flags on the
command line
- Architecture concretization updated to use the same algorithm as
compiler concretization
- Micro-architecture features, vendor, generation etc. are included in
the package hash. Generic architectures, such as x86_64 or ppc64, are
still dumped using the name only.
- If the compiler for a target is not supported exit with an intelligible
error message. If the compiler support is unknown don't try to use
optimization flags.
- Support and define feature aliases (e.g., sse3 -> ssse3) in
microarchitectures.json and on Microarchitecture objects. Feature
aliases are defined in targets.json and map a name (the "alias") to a
list of rules that must be met for the test to be successful. The rules
that are available can be extended later using a decorator.
- Implement subset semantics for comparing microarchitectures (treat
microarchitectures as a partial order, i.e. (a < b), (a == b) and (b <
a) can all be false.
- Implement logic to automatically demote the default target if the
compiler being used is too old to optimize for it. Updated docs to make
this behavior explicit. This avoids surprising the user if the default
compiler is older than the host architecture.
This commit adds unit tests to verify the semantics of target ranges and
target lists in constraints. The implementation to allow target ranges
and lists is minimal and doesn't add any new type. A more careful
refactor that takes into account the type system might be due later.

Add llnl.util.cpu_name, with initial support for detecting different
microarchitectures on Linux. This also adds preliminary changes for
compiler support and variants to control the optimizatoin levels by
target.
This does not yet include translations of targets to particular
compilers; that is left to another PR.

* implicit_rpaths are now removed from compilers.yaml config and are always instantiated dynamically, this occurs one time in the build_environment module
* per-compiler list required libraries (e.g. libstdc++, libgfortran) and whitelist directories from rpaths including those libraries. Remove non-whitelisted implicit rpaths. Some libraries default for all compilers.
* reintroduce 'implicit_rpaths' as a config variable that can be used to disable Spack insertion of compiler RPATHs generated at build time.
- mkdirp now takes arguments to allow it to properly set permissions on created directories.
- Two arguments (group and mode) set permissions for the leaf directory.
- Intermediate directories can inherit permissions from either the topmost existing directory (the parent) or the leaf.
Fixes#11163
The goal of this work is to simplify stage directory structures by eliminating use of symbolic links. This means, among other things, that` $spack/var/spack/stage` will no longer be the core staging directory. Instead, the first accessible `config:build_stage` path will be used.
Spack will no longer automatically append `spack-stage` (or the like) to configured build stage directories so the onus of distinguishing the directory from other work -- so the other work is not automatically removed with a `spack clean` operation -- falls on the user.
* extends mkdirs with permissions for intermediate folders
Does not use os.makedirs mode parameter because its behavior is changed
with Python 3.7 (it ignores it for intermediate dirs), and moreover it
was not possible to set different modes for newly-created folders
and leaf folder.
reference:
- https://bugs.python.org/issue19930
- https://docs.python.org/3.7/library/os.html#os.makedirs
* comment mkdirp step easing code understanding
* revert mkdir to default for package metapath
since metapath is nested in package folder, there is no need
to specify permissions for intermediate folders because the prefix
already exists.
* comment create_install_directory package modes
The default library search for a package checks the lib/ and lib64/
directories for libraries before the root prefix, in order to save
time when searching for libraries provided by externals (which e.g.
may have '/usr/' as their root).
This moves that logic into the "find_libraries" utility method so
packages implementing their own custom library search logic can
benefit from it.
This also updates packages which appear to be replicating this logic
exactly, replacing it with a single call to "find_libraries".
Fixes#11782
Spack was not properly resolving relative paths to absolute paths
when a relative path was passed to "spack compiler add [PATH]".
Now, if provided a relative path, the absolute path is written to
compilers.yaml rather than the relative path.
For resources, it is desirable to use the expanded archive name of
the resource as the name of the directory when adding it to the root
staging area.
#11528 established 'spack-src' as the universal directory where
source files are placed, which also affected the behavior of
resources managed with Stages.
This adds a new property ('srcdir') to Stage to remember the name of
the expanded source directory, and uses this as the default name when
placing a resource directory in the root staging area.
This also:
* Ensures that downloaded sources are archived using the expanded
archive name (otherwise Spack will not be able to determine the
original directory name when using a cached archive).
* Updates working_dir context manager to guarantee restoration of
original working directory when an exception occurs
* Adds a "temp_cwd" context manager which creates a temporary
directory and sets it as the working directory
- spack.compilers.find_compilers now uses a multiprocess.pool.ThreadPool to execute
system commands for the detection of compiler versions.
- A few memoized functions have been introduced to avoid poking the filesystem multiple
times for the same results.
- Performance is much improved, and Spack no longer fork-bombs the system when doing a `compiler find`
- make tty.msg, tty.info, etc. print the exception type and stringified
message if the message argument is an exception.
- simplify parts of the code that call tty.debug(str(e))
- add extra tty.debug statements in places where exceptions were
previously ignored
The Spack documentation currently hard-codes some functionality in
`conf.py`, which makes the doc build less "pluggable" for things like
localized doc builds.
In particular, we unconditionally generate an index of commands and a
package list as part of the docs, but those should really only be done if
things are not up to date.
This commit does the following:
- Add `--header` option to `spack commands` so that it can do the work of
prepending text to its output.
- Add `--update FILE` option to `spack commands` that makes it generate a
new command index *only* if FILE is out of date w.r.t. commands in the
Spack source.
- Simplify code in `conf.py` to use these options and only update the
command index when needed.
Environments are nowm by default, created with views. When activated, if an environment includes a view, this view will be added to `PATH`, `CPATH`, and other shell variables to expose the Spack environment in the user's shell.
Example:
```
spack env create e1 #by default this will maintain a view in the directory Spack maintains for the env
spack env create e1 --with-view=/abs/path/to/anywhere
spack env create e1 --without-view
```
The `spack.yaml` manifest file now looks like this:
```
spack:
specs:
- python
view: true #or false, or a string
```
These commands can be used to control the view configuration for the active environment, without hand-editing the `spack.yaml` file:
```
spack env view enable
spack env view envable /abs/path/to/anywhere
spack env view disable
```
Views are automatically updated when specs are installed to an environment. A view only maintains one copy of any package. An environment may refer to a package multiple times, in particular if it appears as a dependency. This PR establishes a prioritization for which environment specs are added to views: a spec has higher priority if it was concretized first. This does not necessarily exactly match the order in which specs were added, for example, given `X->Z` and `Y->Z'`:
```
spack env activate e1
spack add X
spack install Y # immediately concretizes and installs Y and Z'
spack install # concretizes X and Z
```
In this case `Z'` will be favored over `Z`.
Specs in the environment must be concrete and installed to be added to the view, so there is another minor ordering effect: by default the view maintained for the environment ignores file conflicts between packages. If packages are not installed in order, and there are file conflicts, then the version chosen depends on the order.
Both ordering issues are avoided if `spack install`/`spack add` and `spack install <spec>` are not mixed.
