graph: add Maker MaybeSet method This is to cater for the Abigail reader which has to deal with residual duplicate nodes. The new private `Set` helper is easily inlined away. PiperOrigin-RevId: 659975421 Change-Id: Id2756b6a44bc1fa70afefa3636e06d065dde1b3f
The STG (symbol-type graph) is an ABI representation and this project contains tools for the creation and comparison of such representations.
The ABI extraction tool, stg, emits a native ABI format. Parsers exist for libabigail's XML format, BTF and ELF / DWARF.
The ABI diff tool, stgdiff, supports multiple reporting options.
STG has a versioned native file format. Older formats can be read and rewritten as the latest.
NOTE: STG is under active developement. Tool arguments and behaviour are subject to change.
We intend to package STG for major distributions. Currently we have packages as follows:
| Distribution | Package |
|---|---|
| Arch Linux (AUR) | stg-git |
This source code is available at https://android.googlesource.com/platform/external/stg/.
Instructions are included for local and Docker builds.
STG is written in C++20. It is known to compile with GCC 11, Clang 15 or later versions. Mininum requirements for a local build are:
| Dependency | Debian | RedHat | Version |
|---|---|---|---|
| build | cmake | cmake | 3.14 |
| ELF, BTF | libelf-dev | elfutils-devel | 0.189 |
| DWARF | libdw-dev | elfutils-devel | 0.189 |
| XML | libxml2-dev | libxml2-devel | 2.9 |
| BTF | linux-libc-dev | kernel-headers | 5.19 |
| native format | libprotobuf-dev | protobuf-devel | 3.19 |
| native format | protobuf-compiler | protobuf-compiler | 3.19 |
| allocator[^1] | libjemalloc-dev | jemalloc-devel | 5 |
| catch2[^2] | catch2 | catch2-devel | 2 (only) |
[^1]: jemalloc is optional, but will likely improve performance. [^2]: catch2 is optional, but required to build the test suite.
Build STG using CMake as follows:
$ mkdir build && cd build $ cmake .. $ cmake --build . --parallel
Run the STG unit test suite:
$ ctest
A Dockerfile is provided to build a container with the STG tools:
$ docker build -t stg .
And then enter the container:
$ docker run -it stg
Note that the Dockerfile provides only a production image. To use Docker as a development environment, you can comment out everything after the line # second stage.
After that you may bind your development code to the container:
$ docker run -it $PWD:/src -it stg
The source code is added to /src, so when your code is bound you can edit on your host and re-compile in the container.
See CONTRIBUTING.md for details.
