GN 代表生成忍者。它生成构建东西的忍者文件。主文件是BUILD.GN,位于 fuchsia 源代码树的根目录
它包含很多build_api_module
调用:
build_api_module("images") {
testonly = true
data_keys = [ "images" ]
deps = [
# XXX(46415): as the build is specialized by board (bootfs_only)
# for bringup, it is not possible for this to be complete. As this
# is used in the formation of the build API with infrastructure,
# and infrastructure assumes that the board configuration modulates
# the definition of `zircon-a` between bringup/non-bringup, we can
# not in fact have a complete description. See the associated
# conditional at this group also.
"build/images",
# This has the images referred to by $qemu_kernel_label entries.
"//build/zircon/zbi_tests",
]
}
但是,我不清楚这到底是做什么的。例如,查看它在build/config/build_api_module.gn上的定义:
template("build_api_module") {
if (current_toolchain == default_toolchain) {
generated_file(target_name) {
outputs = [ "$root_build_dir/$target_name.json" ]
forward_variables_from(invoker,
[
"contents",
"data_keys",
"deps",
"metadata",
"testonly",
"visibility",
"walk_keys",
"rebase",
])
output_conversion = "json"
metadata = {
build_api_modules = [ target_name ]
if (defined(invoker.metadata)) {
forward_variables_from(invoker.metadata, "*", [ "build_api_modules" ])
}
}
}
} else {
not_needed([ "target_name" ])
not_needed(invoker, "*")
}
}
看起来它只是生成一个文件。
有人可以向我解释最终如何build_api_module("images")
构建所有锆石内核映像吗?
