Linux之旅(1): diff, patch和quilt (下)
2 quilt
我们自己的项目能够用cvs或svn管理所有代码。但有时我们要使用其它开发人员维护的项目。我们须要改动一些文件,但又不能直接向版本号管理工具提交代码。自己用版本号管理工具重建整个项目是不合适的,由于大多数代码都是别人维护的,比如Linux内核。我们仅仅是想管理好自己的补丁。这时能够使用quilt。
2.1 基本概念
quilt是一个帮助我们管理补丁的程序。quilt的命令格式相似于cvs:
quilt 子命令 [參数]
0.46版的quilt有29个子命令。
掌握quilt的关键是了解使用quilt的流程。使用quilt时,我们会在一个完整的源码树里工作。仅仅要我们在源码树里使用了quilt命令,quilt就会在源码树的根文件夹建立两个特殊文件夹:patches和.pc。quilt在patches文件夹保存它管理的全部补丁。quilt用.pc文件夹保存自己的内部工作状态,用户不须要了解这个文件夹。
patches/series文件记录了quilt当前管理的补丁。补丁依照增加的顺序排列,早增加的补丁在前。quilt用堆栈的概念管理补丁的应用。
我们在应用补丁A前,必须先应用全部早于补丁A的补丁。所以,patches/series中的补丁总是从上向下应用。比如:上图中,补丁1到补丁5是已经应用的补丁。我们能够将已应用的补丁想象成一个向下生长的堆栈,栈顶就是已应用的最新补丁。应用补丁就是将补丁入栈,撤销补丁就是将补丁出栈。
我们在源码树中作不论什么改动前,必须用"quilt add"命令将要改动的文件与一个补丁联系起来。在完毕改动后,用"quilt refresh"命令将改动保存到已联系的补丁。以下我们通过一篇流程攻略来认识一下quilt的命令。
2.2 导入补丁
我们把 old-prj.tar.bz2 想象成Linux内核,我们把它解压后,进入代码树的根文件夹:
$ mkdir qtest; cd qtest; tar xvjf ../old-prj.tar.bz2; mv old-prj prj; cd prj
在改动代码前,我们通常要先打上官方补丁。在quilt中,能够用import命令导入补丁:
$ quilt import ../../prj.diff
Importing patch ../../prj.diff (stored as prj.diff)
运行improt命令后, prj 文件夹会多出一个叫 patches 的子文件夹:
$ find patches/ -type f
patches/prj.diff
patches/series
quilt在这个文件夹存放全部补丁和前面介绍的series文件。quilt的大多数命令都能够在代码树的随意子文件夹执行,不一定要从根文件夹执行。我们能够用applied命令查询当前已应用的补丁。
$ quilt applied
No patches applied
眼下还没有应用不论什么补丁。unapplied命令查询当前还没有应用的补丁,top命令查询栈顶补丁,即已应用的最新补丁:
$ quilt unapplied
prj.diff
$ quilt top
No patches applied
我们能够使用push命令应用补丁,比如:
$ quilt push -a
Applying patch prj.diff
patching file src/drv/drv1.h
patching file src/sys/sys1.c
patching file src/sys/sys1.h
patching file src/usr/usr1.c
patching file src/usr/usr1.h
Now at patch prj.diff
push的"-a"參数表示应用全部补丁。在使用push命令后,prj 文件夹会多了一个叫.pc的隐含子文件夹。quilt用这个文件夹保存内部状态,用户不须要了解这个文件夹。应用补丁后,我们再使用applied、unapplied和top命令查看:
$ quilt applied
prj.diff
$ quilt unapplied
File series fully applied, ends at patch prj.diff
$ quilt top
prj.diff
2.3 改动文件
我们必须将对源码树所作的不论什么修改都和一个补丁联系起来。add命令将文件的当前状态与补丁联系起来。add命令的格式为:
quilt add [-P 补丁名] 文件名称
假设未指定补丁名,文件就与栈顶补丁联系起来。眼下,我们的栈顶补丁是官方补丁。我们不想改动这个补丁,能够用new命令新建一个补丁:
$ quilt new drv_p1.diff
Patch drv_p1.diff is now on top
$ quilt top
drv_p1.diff
$ quilt applied
prj.diff
drv_p1.diff
$ quilt unapplied
File series fully applied, ends at patch drv_p1.diff
然后用add命令向栈顶补丁加入一个准备改动的文件:
$ cd src/drv; quilt add drv2.h
File src/drv/drv2.h added to patch drv_p1.diff
add命令为指定补丁保存了指定文件的当前快照,当我们运行refresh命令时,quilt就会检查文件的变化,将差异保存到指定补丁中。使用"quilt diff -z [-P 补丁名] [文件名称]"能够查看指定补丁指定文件的当前修改。省略-P參数表示查看当前补丁的修改,省略文件名称表示查看全部修改。我们修改drv2.h后,运行diff命令:
$ quilt diff -z
Index: prj/src/drv/drv2.h

仅仅要文件已经与我们希望保存修改的补丁联系过了,我们就能够多次修改文件。使用"quilt files [补丁名]"命令能够查看与指定补丁关联的文件。使用"quilt files -val"能够查看全部补丁联系的全部文件。"-v"參数表示更友好的显示,"-a"參数表示显示全部补丁,"-l"參数显示补丁名。比如:
$ quilt files
src/drv/drv2.h
$ quilt files -val
[prj.diff] src/drv/drv1.h

[prj.diff] src/sys/sys1.h
[prj.diff] src/usr/usr1.c
[prj.diff] src/usr/usr1.h
[drv_p1.diff] src/drv/drv2.h
"quilt refresh [补丁名]"刷新补丁,即将指定补丁的文件变化保存到补丁。省略文件名称表示刷新栈顶补丁。我们refresh后,查看补丁文件:
$ quilt refresh
Refreshed patch drv_p1.diff
$ cat ../../patches/drv_p1.diff

"quilt diff -z"命令不会显示已经保存的差异。"quilt diff"显示全部的差异,无论是否保存过。
2.4 再做几个补丁
在添加文件前,我们要先将准备添加的文件与补丁联系起来。我们新建一个补丁,然后新增两个文件src/applet/applet1.h和src/applet/applet1.c。
$ cd ..; quilt new more_p1.diff
Patch more_p1.diff is now on top
$ quilt add applet/applet.c
File src/applet/applet.c added to patch more_p1.diff
$ quilt add applet/applet.1
File src/applet/applet.1 added to patch more_p1.diff
看看我们添加的文件:
$ quilt files
src/applet/applet.1
src/applet/applet.c
哎呀,文件名称写错了。我们能够用"remove"命令从补丁中删除关联文件:
$ quilt remove applet/applet.1
rm: remove write-protected regular empty file `.pc/more_p1.diff/src/applet/applet.1'? y
File src/applet/applet.1 removed from patch more_p1.diff
$ quilt remove applet/applet.c
rm: remove write-protected regular empty file `.pc/more_p1.diff/src/applet/applet.c'? y
File src/applet/applet.c removed from patch more_p1.diff
$ quilt files
$ quilt add applet/applet1.h
File src/applet/applet1.h added to patch more_p1.diff
$ quilt add applet/applet1.c
File src/applet/applet1.c added to patch more_p1.diff
$ quilt files
src/applet/applet1.c
src/applet/applet1.h
好了,如今能够创建新文件:
$ mkdir applet
$ echo -e "#ifndef APPLET1_H/n#define APPLET1_H/n#include /"def1.h/"/n#endif">applet/applet1.h
$ echo -e "#include /"applet1.h/"">applet/applet1.c
$ quilt refresh more_p1.diff
Refreshed patch more_p1.diff
刷新补丁后,我们再改动文件drv2.h。改动前一定要先将文件与准备保存改动的补丁联系起来:
$ quilt add drv/drv2.h
File src/drv/drv2.h added to patch more_p1.diff
$ vi drv/drv2.h
$ quilt diff -z drv/drv2.h
Index: prj/src/drv/drv2.h

#define DRV2_H
-#include "def2.h"

我们再新建一个补丁,然后删除两个文件。删除文件前也要先为文件建立关联:
$ quilt new more_p2.diff
Patch more_p2.diff is now on top
$ quilt add app/*
File src/app/app1.c added to patch more_p2.diff
File src/app/app1.h added to patch more_p2.diff
File src/app/app2.c added to patch more_p2.diff
File src/app/app2.h added to patch more_p2.diff
$ rm -rf app
$ quilt refresh
Refreshed patch more_p2.diff
我们再改动applet/applet1.h:
$ quilt edit applet/applet1.h
File src/applet/applet1.h added to patch more_p2.diff
$ quilt refresh
Refreshed patch more_p2.diff
"quilt edit"在调用"quilt add"后自己主动启动编辑器。用refresh命令刷新补丁。
对了,前面为more_p1.diff改动drv2.h后还没有刷新呢。我们查看改动并刷新:
$ quilt diff -z -P more_p1.diff
Index: prj/src/drv/drv2.h

Warning: more recent patches modify files in patch more_p1.diff
$ quilt refresh more_p1.diff
More recent patches modify files in patch more_p1.diff. Enforce refresh with -f.
$ quilt refresh -f more_p1.diff
Refreshed patch more_p1.diff
quilt会抱怨更新的补丁改动了补丁more_p1.diff的文件。这是在说more_p2.diff改动了applet1.h。我们知道这和我们要刷新的drv2.h没关系,所以能够用-f參数强制刷新。
2.5 管理补丁
series命令能够查看series文件里的补丁:
$ quilt series
prj.diff
drv_p1.diff
more_p1.diff
more_p2.diff
"quilt patches 文件名称"显示改动了指定文件的全部补丁,比如:
$ quilt patches drv/drv2.h
drv_p1.diff
more_p1.diff
"quilt annotate 文件名称"显示指定文件的改动情况,它会指出哪个补丁改动了哪一行。比如:
$ quilt annotate drv/drv2.h
1 #ifndef DRV2_H
1 #define DRV2_H
2 #include "def1.h"
#endif
1 drv_p1.diff
2 more_p1.diff
我们能够使用push和pop命令应用补丁或撤销补丁,比如:
$ quilt pop -a
Removing patch more_p2.diff
Restoring src/app/app1.c
Restoring src/app/app2.c
Restoring src/app/app2.h
Restoring src/app/app1.h
Restoring src/applet/applet1.h
Removing patch more_p1.diff
Restoring src/drv/drv2.h
Removing src/applet/applet1.h
Removing src/applet/applet1.c
Removing patch drv_p1.diff
Restoring src/drv/drv2.h
Removing patch prj.diff
Restoring src/sys/sys1.c
Restoring src/sys/sys1.h
Restoring src/drv/drv1.h
Removing src/usr/usr1.c
Removing src/usr/usr1.h
No patches applied
$ quilt top
No patches applied
$ quilt next
prj.diff
$ quilt previous
No patches applied
"quilt pop -a"撤销全部补丁。top命令显示栈顶命令,即当前应用的最新的补丁。next命令显示下一个能够应用的补丁。previous显示上一条应用过的补丁。"push 补丁A"将从上到下依次应用全部早于补丁A的补丁,最后应用补丁A。比如:
$ quilt push more_p1.diff
Applying patch prj.diff
patching file src/drv/drv1.h
patching file src/sys/sys1.c
patching file src/sys/sys1.h
patching file src/usr/usr1.c
patching file src/usr/usr1.h
Applying patch drv_p1.diff
patching file src/drv/drv2.h
Applying patch more_p1.diff
patching file src/applet/applet1.c
patching file src/applet/applet1.h
patching file src/drv/drv2.h
Now at patch more_p1.diff
$ quilt top
more_p1.diff
$ quilt next
more_p2.diff
$ quilt previous
drv_p1.diff
"quilt push -a"应用全部补丁:
$ quilt push -a
Applying patch more_p2.diff
patching file src/app/app1.c
patching file src/app/app1.h
patching file src/app/app2.c
patching file src/app/app2.h
patching file src/applet/applet1.h
Now at patch more_p2.diff
"quilt graph -all"能够为栈顶补丁的依赖关系生成dot文件。Graphviz的dot能够依据dot文件产生图片,比如:
$ quilt graph --all > ../../more_p2.dot
$ cd ../..; dot -Tpng more_p2.dot -o more_p2.png
2.6 公布补丁
仅仅要将patches文件夹打包公布就能够了。比如:
$ cd prj; tar cvjf prj-0.1-patches.tar.bz2 patches; mv prj-0.1-patches.tar.bz2 ../..
用户先下载、解压补丁包相应的源码树:
$ cd ../..; mkdir user; cd user; tar xvjf ../old-prj.tar.bz2; mv old-prj/ prj
然后下载、解压补丁:
$ cd ../..; tar xvjf prj-0.1-patches.tar.bz2; cd user/prj
最后把补丁文件夹链接到源码树的patches文件夹,然后应用全部补丁:
$ ln -sfn ../../patches/ patches
$ quilt push -a
Applying patch prj.diff
patching file src/drv/drv1.h
patching file src/sys/sys1.c
patching file src/sys/sys1.h
patching file src/usr/usr1.c
patching file src/usr/usr1.h Applying patch drv_p1.diff
patching file src/drv/drv2.h
Applying patch more_p1.diff
patching file src/applet/applet1.c
patching file src/applet/applet1.h
patching file src/drv/drv2.h
Applying patch more_p2.diff
patching file src/app/app1.c
patching file src/app/app1.h
patching file src/app/app2.c
patching file src/app/app2.h
patching file src/applet/applet1.h
Now at patch more_p2.diff
3 结束语
在上面的流程攻略中,我们演示了19个quilt命令:add, annotate, applied, diff, edit, files, graph, import, new, next, patches, pop, previous, push, refresh, remove, series, top, unapplied。
