Feature request summary
This feature depends on functionality in the core, but can be discussed in the meantime
Thanks @skuenzer for describing this:
Use case: We have a pre-compiled & binary version of ramfs ukcpio and ukvmem. These libs are also in-tree but we want to replace them with the binary versions.
Because potentially the libname in the path could be the same, we should handover the whole paths
So basically, for the build system the idea is the following (example, we replace ramfs):
make L=$( readlink -f ../path/to/replacing/ramfs ) H=${UK_ROOT}/lib/ramfs
H= (for Hide) works like L=, a colon-separated list
specification: '0.5'
name: example
unikraft:
version: cloud
kconfig:
- CONFIG_LIBPOSIX_SYSINFO=y
- CONFIG_LIBUKSIGNAL=y
targets:
- name: kraftcloud-x86_64
architecture: x86_64
platform: firecracker
libraries:
ramfs: # <-- a matching name automatically replaces it?
source: https://github.com/unikraft-io/lib-superhero-version-of-ramfs-bin
version: stable
replaces: ramfs # <-- or should we add another attribute in case the name does not match? could this even happen? background: a lib that replaces something internally in unikraft has to match the name and API?
ukp-bin:
source: https://github.com/unikraft-io/lib-ukp-bin
version: stable
