Explicitly import package utilities in all packages, and corresponding fallout.
This includes:
* rename `spack.package` to `spack.package_base`
* rename `spack.pkgkit` to `spack.package`
* update all packages in builtin, builtin_mock and tutorials to include `from spack.package import *`
* update spack style
* ensure packages include the import
* automatically add the new import and remove any/all imports of `spack` and `spack.pkgkit`
from packages when using `--fix`
* add support for type-checking packages with mypy when SPACK_MYPY_CHECK_PACKAGES
is set in the environment
* fix all type checking errors in packages in spack upstream
* update spack create to include the new imports
* update spack repo to inject the new import, injection persists to allow for a deprecation period
Original message below:
As requested @adamjstewart, update all packages to use pkgkit. I ended up using isort to do this,
so repro is easy:
```console
$ isort -a 'from spack.pkgkit import *' --rm 'spack' ./var/spack/repos/builtin/packages/*/package.py
$ spack style --fix
```
There were several line spacing fixups caused either by space manipulation in isort or by packages
that haven't been touched since we added requirements, but there are no functional changes in here.
* [x] add config to isort to make sure this is maintained going forward
- [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
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
- remove the old LGPL license headers from all files in Spack
- add SPDX headers to all files
- core and most packages are (Apache-2.0 OR MIT)
- a very small number of remaining packages are LGPL-2.1-only
Package repositories now look like this:
top-level-dir/
repo.yaml
packages/
libelf/
package.py
mpich/
package.py
...
This leaves room at the top level for additional metadata, source,
per-repo configs, indexes, etc., and it makes it easy to see that
something is a spack repo (just look for repo.yaml and packages).
