When recording which package version to look for in
QtFooModuleDependencies.cmake and other files like it,
instead of using PROJECT_VERSION, use the version of the
package that contains the dependency.
For example if we're hypothetically building the qtdeclarative repo
from the 6.4 branch, against an installed 6.2 qtbase, then
the Qt6QmlModuleDependencies.cmake file will have a
find_package(Qt6Core 6.2) call because qtdeclarative's
find_package(Qt6Core) call found a 6.2 Core when it was configured.
This allows switching the versioning scheme of specific Qt modules
that might not want to follow the general Qt versioning scheme.
The first candidate would be QtWebEngine which might want to
follow the Chromium versioning scheme, something like
Qt 6.94.0 where 94 is the Chromium major version.
Implementation notes.
We now record the package version of a target in a property
called _qt_package_version. We do it for qt modules, plugins,
3rd party libraries, tools and the Platform target.
When we try to look up which version to write into the
QtFooModuleDependencies.cmake file (or the equivalent Plugins and
Tools file), we try to find the version
from a few sources: the property mentioned above, then the
Qt6{target}_VERSION variable, and finally PROJECT_VERSION.
In the latter case, we issue a warning because technically that should
never have to happen, and it's a bug or an unforeseen case if it does.
A few more places also need adjustments:
- package versions to look for when configuring standalone
tests and generating standalone tests Config files
- handling of tools packages
- The main Qt6 package lookup in each Dependencies.cmake files
Note that there are some requirements and consequences in case a
module wants to use a different versioning scheme like 6.94.0.
Requirements.
- The root CMakeLists.txt file needs to call find_package with a
version different from the usual PROJECT_VERSION. Ideally it
should look for a few different Qt versions which are known to be
compatible, for example the last stable and LTS versions, or just
the lowest supported Qt version, e.g. 6.2.6 or whenever this change
would land in the 6.2 branch.
- If the repository has multiple modules, some of which need to
follow the Qt versioning scheme and some not,
project(VERSION x.y.z) calls need to be carefully placed in
subdirectory scopes with appropriate version numbers, so that
qt_internal_add_module / _tool / _plugin pick up the correct
version.
Consequences.
- The .so / .dylib names will contain the new version, e.g. .so.6.94
- Linux ELF symbols will contain the new versions
- syncqt private headers will now exist under a
include/QtFoo/6.94.0/QtFoo/private folder
- pri and prl files will also contain the new version numbers
- pkg-config .pc files contain the new version numbers
- It won't be possible to write
find_package(Qt6 6.94 COMPONENTS WebEngineWidgets) in user code.
One would have to write find_package(Qt6WebEngineWidgets 6.94)
otherwise CMake will try to look for Qt6Config 6.94 which won't
exist.
- Similarly, a
find_package(Qt6 6.4 COMPONENTS Widgets WebEngineWidgets) call
would always find any kind of WebEngine package that is higher than
6.4, which might be 6.94, 6.95, etc.
- In the future, if we fix Qt6Config to pass EXACT to its
subcomponent find_package calls,
a find_package(Qt6 6.5.0 EXACT COMPONENTS Widgets WebEngineWidgets)
would fail to find WebEngineWidgets, because its 6.94.0 version
will not be equal to 6.5.0. Currently we don't pass through EXACT,
so it's not an issue.

The -mno-direct-extern-access tells the compiler and linker that
references to symbols outside this ELF module mustn't be direct and must
instead always go through the GOT or PLT (the PLT can additionally be
disabled with -fno-plt). The ELF protected visibility tells the compiler
and linker that this symbol is present in the dynamic symbol table as an
export, but it cannot be interposed by another ELF module.
This option is required for user code to link properly to Qt, otherwise
they will get linker errors (assuming GNU binutils >= 2.39) or runtime
failures (glibc >= 2.35). Both versions of glibc and binutils are older
than GCC 12, so it's a safe assumption they are in use and downgrading
the toolchain or libc is not supported. Adding this option to the
compilation is assured for CMake and qmake-based projects.
For example, all accessess to QCoreApplication::self in QtCore, after
this change and with GCC 12 are relocation-free and direct:
000000000013ebf0 <QCoreApplicationPrivate::checkInstance(char const*)>:
13ebf0: cmpq $0x0,0x4f73d0(%rip) # 635fc8 <QCoreApplication::self>
13ebf8: setne %al
13ebfb: je a90fe <QCoreApplicationPrivate::checkInstance(char const*) [clone .cold]>
13ec01: ret
Meanwhile, accesses to the same variable in other modules are indirect
via the GOT:
66650: mov 0x876e1(%rip),%rax # edd38 <QCoreApplication::self@Qt_6>
66657: cmpq $0x0,(%rax)
This replaces the -Bsymbolic and -Bsymbolic-functions (broken)
functionality that Qt has been using or attempting to use since ~2006.

After the update to the CMake based build system the ability to
generate pkgconfig files, like it was with QMake, was lost.
This patch adds pkgconfig generation again via a new internal command
named qt_internal_export_pkg_config_file.
The functionality of this command consists in checking if the target
is internal. Then gets the compile definitions. It performs a search
for dependencies that is somewhat similar to
qt_get_direct_module_dependencies, although it won't recurse down for
more deps. Each dependency is then again, checked if it's internal or
has a public interface. Later these deps get deduplicated and lastly
a pkgconfig file is filled.
The resulting pkgconfig files of many of the Qt6 packages were
validated via invocations of `pkg-config --validate` and
`pkg-config --simulate` commands and later used to build local
projects plus tests that use the pkg-config provided details at
compilation time.
Although it has some limitations, with qt_internal_add_qml_module if
it specifies non-public deps these won't be listed and with non-Qt
requirements, notably in static builds, not being appended to the
PkgConfig file.

Since platform definition directory is used as an interface include
path of the Qt::Platform target, it makes sense to define it for this
target only. Also the definition of cached values that contain
path to platform definition looks redundand.
The definition of QT_PLATFORM_DEFINITION_DIR from command line
doesn't make any sense since build procedure doesn't take it into
account when installing mkspecs and the use if the user-provided
QT_PLATFORM_DEFINITION_DIR value as a Qt::Platform include directory
causes inconsistency in the prefixed builds. INSTALL_MKSPECSDIR
and QT_QMAKE_TARGET_MKSPEC should be used instead.

Platform definition directory is defined when building qtbase.
Depending on the build type (prefixed/non-prefixed) it should point:
- To the source directory when building prefixed qtbase.
- To the installation directory of the prefixed qtbase when building
consumer projects.
- To the build directory of non-prefixed qtbase when building
non-prefixed qtbase or consumer projects.

definition to the qt_internal_setup_public_platform_target function.

Needed for the upcoming static plugin mechanism, where we have to
extract the list of Qt module dependencies of a target and then extract
the plugins associated with those modules.
To do that we need to recursively collect the dependencies of a given
target.
Rename the moved functions to contain the __qt_internal prefix.
Also rename the existing QtPublicTargetsHelpers.cmake into
QtPlatformTargetHelpers.cmake to avoid confusion with the newly
introduced QtPublicTargetHelpers.cmake.
