patch 9.0.2028: confusing build dependencies Commit: https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/5d03525cdef5db1b1cedfa26c6f8a21aaa207ec0 Author: Yee Cheng Chin <ychin.git@gmail.com> Date: Sun Oct 15 09:50:53 2023 +0200 patch 9.0.2028: confusing build dependencies Problem: confusing build dependencies Solution: clean them up, make them parallelizable Separate vim binary and unittest dependencies, make them parallelizable Clean up make dependencies so Vim and unit test binaries only depend on the object files they need. This fixes an existing issue where after running unit tests, the Vim binary would be invalidated, which results in it having to be linked again when running script tests, even though Vim was already previously built. Make link.sh (script we use to link those binaries) generate namespaced temporary files for each app to avoid them colliding with each other. This allows `unittesttargets` to be built in parallel. These fixes are useful when using link-time-optimization as the link phase could now take minutes rather than a few seconds. closes: #13344 Signed-off-by: Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> Co-authored-by: Yee Cheng Chin <ychin.git@gmail.com>

# link.sh -- try linking Vim with different sets of libraries, finding the
# minimal set for fastest startup.  The problem is that configure adds a few
# libraries when they exist, but this doesn't mean they are needed for Vim.

# Warning: This fails miserably if the linker doesn't return an error code!
#
# Otherwise this script is fail-safe, falling back to the original full link
# command if anything fails.

# If linking works with the full link command, try removing some libraries,

# Remove auto/pathdef.c if there is a new link command and compile it again.
# There is a loop to remove libraries that appear several times.
#
# Notes:
# - Can't remove Xext; It links fine but will give an error when running gvim
#   with Motif.
# - Don't remove the last -lm: On HP-UX Vim links OK but crashes when the GTK
#   GUI is started, because the "floor" symbol could not be resolved.
