Need to make a unified patch to land on mozilla-central. I guess we won't be reviewing the VP8 code itself, but we'll need build-system review.

Import libvpx, the VP8 decoding library. This is not ready for review yet. This builds on Mac x86 (probably Mac x64, though I've not tried that), Win32, Linux x86, and probably Linux x64. I've not tried other platforms, and PPC Macs definitely won't build yet. On Win32 you must have MASM installed (ships in Win7 SDK, or you can download directly from Microsoft.com). On Linux and Mac you need YASM 0.7 or higher.

Build system changes required to build/link all WebM support patches. Without this patch none of the patches in bug 566246 or bug 566245 (or this bug) will actually be built. These patches are not ready for review yet.

Build system changes updated: * Rename MOZ_VP8 to MOZ_WEBM * Rename configure option --disable-vp8 --disable-webm * Merge --disable-libnestegg into --disable-webm * Change the libvpx's Makefile's to have LIBRARY_NAME vpx_* instead of libvpx_*

Rebased on build system changes.

(Otherwise people get confused if they disable something and it's still being built.) In other words, instead of: >+ MOZ_SYDNEYAUDIO=1 >+ MOZ_MEDIA=1 >+ MOZ_VORBIS=1 it might be better to check that these are all defined already (presuming their sections are earlier in configure, which I'd think they would be), and if they aren't, give an error message. See, for example, the bit of configure.in that says: if test -n "$SYSTEM_LIBXUL" && test -z "$MOZ_ENABLE_LIBXUL"; then AC_MSG_ERROR([--with-system-libxul needs --with-libxul-sdk]) fi Also, given the requirement for yasm (from media/libvpx/rules.mk), should configure.in be checking (when MOZ_WEBM is defined, and on the relevant platforms based on media/libvpx/platform-detect.mk) that yasm works? (Or, if there are multiple options for the assembler, use AC_CHECK_PROGS and then use the result in that rules.mk? Or maybe still use AC_CHECK_PROGS even if there's only one option?) It's generally much nicer to people trying to build to give errors during configure than give the errors much later in the process.

In theory nasm should also work (and if it doesn't bugs will be filed) so ideally the assembler should be able to be set, as yasm doesn't support all the tier 2 platforms. Also would be nice if there was an option to set the -f <obj-format> parameter to yasm/nasm.

The current plan is to use MASM on Windows, NASM on Mac, and YASM on Linux.

We only support a specified/restricted set of codecs in the container formats we support. We don't actually want (at this stage) the ability to disable individual codecs, we want the supported containers that we've enabled to determine what codecs we support. So we don't have sections earlier in configure.in for --disable-vorbis or the like. We basically only want to enable libvorbis and libsyndeyaudio when we've got either ogg or webm support enabled. Configuring with --disable-webm shouldn't require you to also configure with --enable-vorbis in order to get Vorbis-in-Ogg support, when building by default congfigures Vorbis-in-Ogg (without requiring --enable-vorbis). How about I change the configure.in MOZ_ARG_DISABLE_BOOL ogg/vp8, lines so that the `configure --help` text explicitly says that Vorbis won't be disabled unless both Ogg and WebM are disabled? > > Also, given the requirement for yasm (from media/libvpx/rules.mk), should > configure.in be checking (when MOZ_WEBM is defined, and on the relevant > platforms based on media/libvpx/platform-detect.mk) that yasm works? Thanks for pointing that out! This is a good idea, I'll make this change.

* Detect when NASM/MASM isn't installed, and halt during configure with an error if so. Detection for YASM on Linux is there too, but disabled until we get YASM on Linux build machines. * Add /media/libvpx/$(LIB_PREFIX)vpx.$(LIB_SUFFIX) to layout linkage. * Make --disable-ogg and --disable-webm more explicit about what they're disabling.

* Disable assembly on Linux and MacOSX x86_64. We can re-enable once we have YASM on the mozilla build Linux machines, and once someone who has a 64bit-capable mac can verify that we can do an x86_64 build with NASM. * Don't make /media/libvpx/ a component, force it to be a static library like the other media libraries. * Fix a few typos here and there.

Comment on attachment 447269 [details] [diff] [review] Build system v3 Ted: Can you review the build system changes for the VP8 video decoder backend please?

Comment on attachment 447270 [details] [diff] [review] Import libvpx v3 Ted: Can you also review the build system changes required to import libvpx? There's no need to review the upstream files (basically all the c/h/asm files). If you want to build the WebM decoder, you'd need the other patches from bug 566245 and bug 566246, and need to s/MOZ_VP8/MOZ_WEBM/g in the patches in bug 566245. Thanks very much!

(In reply to comment #10) > once someone who has a 64bit-capable mac can verify that we can do an x86_64 build with NASM. Matthew Gregan tells me we can't build with the system NASM on 64 bit mac, so we'll have to remove the assembly for 64 bit mac. I also realized I didn't disable the assembly for x86_64 MacOSX properly anyway, so I'll have to regenerate the "import libvpx" patch.

I think we may want to drop Tim's mv_bounds patch and possibly pick up (for the short term, at least) the newer version of his fix linked from bug 566987.

Updated build system to have configure/Make directives MOZ_HAVE_{YASM,MASM,NASM}, so that we can choose at build time which assembler to use from those installed on the user's computer, or fallback to C code if they don't have an assembler. This means that once YASM is installed on the Linux Mozilla build machines, we'll automatically start building using YASM, and won't have to change any of our code. We *must* have MASM on Windows to build though, as we can't fallback to generic C code on Windows because it doesn't have a stdint.h (before VC Express 2010 anyway), and the generic C code assumes stdint.h exists.

Updates libvpx build system to detect which assembler to use based on what's available on the user's computer. The assemblers used on each platforms are: * MASM on Win32 (required) * NASM on Darwin x86 if available * YASM on Linux if available * YASM on Darwin x86_64 if available * We fallback to generic C code an appropriate assembler isn't found on Mac/Linux. * We can't compile on Win64 as per my previous comment re: stdint.h.

YASM has been installed on the Linux mozilla build machines (CentOS and Fedora12 by the looks of it). We'll check here whether YASM 1.0.1 (the same version they installed on the Linux machines) correctly builds libvpx's assmebly on Mac64bit, and we'll file a bug to get that added to Mozilla build machines as well. Then I can rework the patch (again!) to not bother with the fallback. I'd like to get review feedback before reworking my patches again if possible please. I need to also remember to include Tim Terriberry's new MV bounds patch from bug 566987 comment 6 in my "import libvpx" patch.

Note to self: we need to update the build requirements page when we land this patch, re: assemblers.

Just use VPATH as I mentioned above. r- for moving that makefile goop into configure, and changing the makefiles to use VPATH.

Thanks Ted! (In reply to comment #19) > Also, is it fatal to not have nasm on OS X or yasm on Linux? You don't error > out here if they're missing. It's not fatal on OS X or Linux if we don't have an assembler; we can fallback to use generic C code. The generic fallback doesn't work on Windows because it doesn't have a stdint.h. I probably could make it work on Windows (I think I'll need to do something for Win64 anyway) but MASM ships in the Windows 7 SDK, so it's likely the user will have it.

Unfortunately YASM doesn't produce object files which can link with the /SAFESEH option (they have a bug filed for this), so we actually can't use YASM on Windows until they fix that.

Why not just use nasm on Windows then, it supports linking with /SAFESEH since version 2.03, the license is much the same as of version 2.07 (simplified BSD vs new BSD) and it supports all the architectures. http://nasm.us/doc/nasmdoc7.html#section-7.5.2

Because VP8 uses YASM syntax, not just NASM syntax.

Dave in comment 22 accidentally reverted the value of the blocking1.9.3 flag...

Build system updated W.R.T. Ted's comments. Notable changes: * Moved the assembler detection into the configure step *in the "import libvpx" patch*. * Assembly is now linked into media/libvpx/$(LIB_PREFIX)vpx.$(LIB_SUFFIX) directly in media/libvpx/Makefile. So we don't need to do a "ifndef MOZ_GENERIC_VP8 then link in the x86 assembly" in layout/build/Makefile.in. * Moved all the media AC_SUBST down to the end of configure.in. I'm carrying forward review. The assembly detection has been moved forward to the "import libvpx" patch, and will need to be reviewed there.

Changes from previous version: * Added VPATH to media/libvpx/Makefile.in, and that now lists all C/asm files which we compile I removed all other makefiles in media/libvpx. * Added assembly/assembler availability detection code to configure.in. We now define VPX_X86_ASM when we have an x86 assembler and we're building on an x86 platform which can build assembly. * Ted: if you haven't already, it would be good if you can check that I'm using the right platform detection macros in media/libvpx/vpx_config.h/_c.c (around line 29560 of this patch). * Removed media/libvpx/rules.mk and media/libvpx/platform-detect.mk. * Removed usage if NASM assembler. We've just got YASM installed on the mac build machines, so now we use MASM on Win32, and YASM on Mac x86, Mac x86_64, and Linux x86. We fallback to C code otherwise. * Removed the hacks required to get the assembly to build with NASM. * Renamed NASMtoMASM.* to YASMtoMASM to reflect reality. * Updated to include Tim Terriberry's latest MV-bound patch.

(In reply to comment #26) > Created an attachment (id=449158) [details] > Import libvpx v5 Damn... this is breaking the build on Maemo on TryServer. It looks like VPX_X86_ASM is defined somehow, but I can see from the warning about not having an assmebler in the build log that the configure-code-path which defines VPX_X86_ASM isn't being hit... Weird...

As "Import libvpx v5", but with an extra AC_SUBST(VPX_X86_ASM) in configure.in, now it builds on maemo...

Looks like the license clarification we've been waiting for has landed in the git repository: https://review.webmproject.org/#change,78

http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/1a95c30ec47b http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/b71fe75f19bd

I have updated https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Developer_Guide/Build_Instructions/Linux_Prerequisites and https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Developer_Guide/Build_Instructions/Mac_OS_X_Prerequisites to include YASM in the prerequisites. The Windows build prerequisites says you need the Windows 7 SDK, which includes MASM, so I've not updated the documentation for Windows.

Since we have to include some changes before we can build vp8 on OS/2 I tried to build with "--disable-webm" by adding the respective line to my .mozconfig. However, disabling did not work in autoconf.mk it was still MOZ_WEBM = 1. I think, there is a mistake in configure in. +MOZ_ARG_DISABLE_BOOL(vp8, >+[ --disable-webm Disable WebM with VP8 video and Vorbis audio support], When I substitute the first line by +MOZ_ARG_DISABLE_BOOL(webm, >+[ --disable-webm Disable WebM with VP8 video and Vorbis audio disabling works perfectly (in autoconf.mk: MOZ_WEBM =)

Walter: thanks for pointing that out. I don't know how I missed that in review!

Thanks very much Walter, I've filed bug 571116 for your fix.

This doesn't really matter because we're going to switch to YASM for windows soon, but in general configure error messages should point to mozilla.org pages, not to external links that will get moved by Microsoft or others.
