2019-04-30End-of-line Backslashs no longer right under each otherMohammad Akhlaghi-52/+53
When we need to quote the new-line character we end the line with a backslash (`\'). Until now, our convention has been to put all such backslashes under each other to help in visual inspection. But this causes a lot of confusion in version control: if only one line's length is larger, the whole block will be marked as changed and thus makes it hard to visually see the actual change. It also makes debuging the code (adding some temporary lines) hard. With this commit, I went through all the files and tried to fix all such cases so only a single white space character is between the last command character and the backslash. Where there was an empty line (ending with a backslash, to help in visually separating the code into blocks), I put the backslash right under the previous line's. This completes task #15259.
2019-04-30Running PatchELF on all programs after CoreutilsMohammad Akhlaghi-5/+6
Even though the Coreutils configure script says that it adds `rpath' to its executables, its executables don't have it. As a result, it goes to use the host operating system libraries, causing failures when they don't match with the template. Unfortunately after some tests with the configure script, I couldn't find any way to include `rpath'! Even though `-rpath-link' is present in all linking commands during Coreutils' build, the installed files still don't have it! So I was forced to use PatchELF. However, one problem is that Coreutils installs many programs, not just one like Bash or AWK. As a brute-force solution, with this commit, we are running PatchELF on all the installed programs. It won't hurt those that already have it, but it will fix all those that don't. With this commit, I am also making the following non-related small changes: - In `build-rules.mk', the `&&' characters were placed at the start of the line for better readability. - Bash, Readline and NCURSES are now built in parallel on systems that support it (during `basic.mk').
2019-04-15New architecture to separate software-building and analysis stepsMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+120
Until now, the software building and analysis steps of the pipeline were intertwined. However, these steps (of how to build a software, and how to use it) are logically completely independent. Therefore with this commit, the pipeline now has a new architecture (particularly in the `reproduce' directory) to emphasize this distinction: The `reproduce' directory now has the two `software' and `analysis' subdirectories and the respective parts of the previous architecture have been broken up between these two based on their function. There is also no more `src' directory. The `config' directory for software and analysis is now mixed with the language-specific directories. Also, some of the software versions were also updated after some checks with their webpages. This new architecture will allow much more focused work on each part of the pipeline (to install the software and to run them for an analysis).
