## BUILD
|
|
|
|
*Most users will need follow the standalone build instructions in the next section.*
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
./autogen.sh
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
sudo make install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### BUILD (standalone)
|
|
|
|
This section is intended to allow building with dependencies that have not
|
|
made their way to mainstream systems. Important notes that may affect you:
|
|
|
|
- GCC: Ubuntu Xenial (16.04) users must use a PPA to obtain GCC-7 or greater; don't
|
|
forget to `export CXX=g++-7` before running `./configure` on that system.
|
|
|
|
- Boost: The required version is available through `apt` as `boost-all-dev` on
|
|
Ubuntu Cosmic (18.10). All earlier releases (including 18.04 LTS) can configure
|
|
with `--with-included-boost` as instructed below.
|
|
|
|
- ~~RocksDB: The required version is available through `apt` as `librocksdb-dev` on
|
|
Ubuntu Disco (19.04). All earlier releases (including 18.04 LTS) can configure
|
|
with `--with-included-rocksdb` as instructed below.~~
|
|
|
|
- RocksDB: At this time we advise **all users** including those on 19.04 to
|
|
configure with `--with-included-rocksdb` until regressions in your RocksDB
|
|
package have been fixed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### STANDALONE BUILD PROCEDURE
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
./autogen.sh
|
|
mkdir build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> The install directory may be this or another place of your choosing. If you decide
|
|
elsewhere, make sure to change the `--prefix` in the `./configure` statement below.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
./configure --prefix=$PWD/build --with-included-boost --with-included-rocksdb
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> The `--with-included-*` will fetch, configure **and build** the dependencies included
|
|
as submodules.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
make install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Installation Addendum
|
|
|
|
#### Additional build options
|
|
|
|
Development builds should follow the same instructions as the standalone
|
|
section above while taking note of the following `./configure` options:
|
|
|
|
##### Debug mode
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
--enable-debug
|
|
```
|
|
Full debug mode. Includes additional code within `#ifdef RB_DEBUG` sections.
|
|
Optimization level is `-Og`, which is still valgrind-worthy. Debugger support
|
|
is `-ggdb`. Log level is `DEBUG` (maximum). Assertions are enabled.
|
|
|
|
|
|
##### Release modes (for distribution packages)
|
|
|
|
Options in this section may help distribution maintainers create packages.
|
|
Users building for themselves (whether standalone or fully installed) probably
|
|
don't need anything here.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
--enable-generic
|
|
```
|
|
Sets `-mtune=generic` as `native` is otherwise the default.
|
|
|
|
|
|
##### Compact mode
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
--enable-compact
|
|
```
|
|
Create the smallest possible resulting output. This will optimize for size
|
|
(if optimization is enabled), remove all debugging, strip symbols, and apply
|
|
any toolchain-feature or #ifdef in code that optimizes the output size.
|
|
|
|
_This feature is experimental. It may not build or execute on all platforms
|
|
reliably. Please report bugs._
|
|
|
|
|
|
##### Manually enable assertions
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
--enable-assert
|
|
```
|
|
Implied by `--enable-debug`. This is useful to specifically enable `assert()`
|
|
statements when `--enable-debug` is not used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
##### Manually enable optimization
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
--enable-optimize
|
|
```
|
|
This manually applies full release-mode optimizations even when using
|
|
`--enable-debug`. Implied when not in debug mode.
|
|
|
|
|
|
##### Disable third-party dynamic allocator libraries
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
--disable-malloc-libs
|
|
```
|
|
`./configure` will detect alternative `malloc()` implementations found in
|
|
libraries installed on the system (jemalloc/tcmalloc/etc). Construct developers
|
|
may enable these to be configured by default, if detected. To always prevent
|
|
any alternative to the default standard library allocator specify this option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
##### Logging level
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
--with-log-level=
|
|
```
|
|
This manually sets the level of logging. All log levels at or below this level
|
|
will be available. When a log level is not available, all code used to generate
|
|
its messages will be entirely eliminated via *dead-code-elimination* at compile
|
|
time.
|
|
|
|
The log levels are (from logger.h):
|
|
```
|
|
7 DEBUG Maximum verbosity for developers.
|
|
6 DWARNING A warning but only for developers (more frequent than WARNING).
|
|
5 DERROR An error but only worthy of developers (more frequent than ERROR).
|
|
4 INFO A more frequent message with good news.
|
|
3 NOTICE An infrequent important message with neutral or positive news.
|
|
2 WARNING Non-impacting undesirable behavior user should know about.
|
|
1 ERROR Things that shouldn't happen; user impacted and should know.
|
|
0 CRITICAL Catastrophic/unrecoverable; program is in a compromised state.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
When `--enable-debug` is used `--with-log-level=DEBUG` is implied. Otherwise
|
|
for release mode `--with-log-level=INFO` is implied. Large deployments with
|
|
many users may consider lower than `INFO` to maximize optimization and reduce
|
|
noise.
