It's just static shell, the build system doesn't need to do any substitions.

This will really help when I'm testing on the rpi. Sean

Hi all, After a couple of RFCs, here's the final patchset adding support for the meson build system. All functionality provided by the autotools based build was ported to meson, except sync-with-kernel. I guess we can add it at some later point and have this merged anyway. Native and cross compilation has been tested with several options. Any feedback, testing or suggestions are welcome. Looking forward to see this merged in the next release hopefully :-) Here's a simple comparison between meson and autotools performance for a native build: $ time meson build/ [...] real 0m3.172s user 0m2.698s sys 0m0.577s $ time ninja -C build/ -j4 [...] real 0m19.533s user 1m11.860s sys 0m7.956s $ time (./bootstrap.sh && ./configure) [...] real 0m19.289s user 0m16.448s sys 0m2.756s $ time make -j4 [...] real 0m55.250s user 2m29.425s sys 0m10.829s This patchset was developed on top of v4l-utils tag: v4l-utils-1.20.0: commit 3b22ab02b960e4d1e90618e9fce9b7c8a80d814a Author: Gregor Jasny <gjasny@googlemail.com> Prepare for 1.20.0 release You can find the patch pushed to the following branch: https://gitlab.com/adalessandro/v4l-utils/-/tree/v4l-utils-1.20.0-meson-v1 Regards, Ariel D'Alessandro (1): Add support for meson building .gitignore | 1 + contrib/cobalt-ctl/meson.build | 8 + contrib/decode_tm6000/meson.build | 14 + contrib/gconv/meson.build | 42 +++ contrib/meson.build | 13 + contrib/rds-saa6588/meson.build | 7 + contrib/test/meson.build | 143 ++++++++++ contrib/xc3028-firmware/meson.build | 11 + gen-version.sh | 36 +++ lib/libdvbv5/meson.build | 152 +++++++++++ lib/libv4l-mplane/meson.build | 16 ++ lib/libv4l1/meson.build | 52 ++++ lib/libv4l2/meson.build | 64 +++++ lib/libv4l2rds/meson.build | 27 ++ lib/libv4lconvert/meson.build | 107 ++++++++ lib/meson.build | 11 + libdvbv5-po/meson.build | 3 + meson.build | 255 ++++++++++++++++++ meson_options.txt | 42 +++ utils/cec-compliance/meson.build | 24 ++ utils/cec-ctl/meson.build | 18 ++ utils/cec-follower/meson.build | 21 ++ utils/cx18-ctl/meson.build | 8 + utils/dvb/meson.build | 70 +++++ utils/gen_media_bus_format_codes.sh | 7 + utils/gen_media_bus_format_names.sh | 7 + utils/ir-ctl/meson.build | 23 ++ utils/ivtv-ctl/meson.build | 13 + .../bpf_protocols/clang_sys_includes.sh | 9 + utils/keytable/bpf_protocols/meson.build | 31 +++ utils/keytable/meson.build | 74 +++++ utils/keytable/rc_keymaps/meson.build | 147 ++++++++++ utils/libcecutil/meson.build | 45 ++++ utils/libmedia_dev/meson.build | 14 + utils/libv4l2util/meson.build | 16 ++ utils/media-ctl/meson.build | 43 +++ utils/meson.build | 46 ++++ utils/qv4l2/meson.build | 80 ++++++ utils/qvidcap/meson.build | 82 ++++++ utils/rds-ctl/meson.build | 13 + utils/v4l2-compliance/meson.build | 60 +++++ utils/v4l2-ctl/meson.build | 75 ++++++ utils/v4l2-dbg/meson.build | 16 ++ utils/v4l2-sysfs-path/meson.build | 14 + v4l-utils-po/meson.build | 3 + version.h.in | 1 + 46 files changed, 1964 insertions(+) create mode 100644 contrib/cobalt-ctl/meson.build create mode 100644 contrib/decode_tm6000/meson.build create mode 100644 contrib/gconv/meson.build create mode 100644 contrib/meson.build create mode 100644 contrib/rds-saa6588/meson.build create mode 100644 contrib/test/meson.build create mode 100644 contrib/xc3028-firmware/meson.build create mode 100755 gen-version.sh create mode 100644 lib/libdvbv5/meson.build create mode 100644 lib/libv4l-mplane/meson.build create mode 100644 lib/libv4l1/meson.build create mode 100644 lib/libv4l2/meson.build create mode 100644 lib/libv4l2rds/meson.build create mode 100644 lib/libv4lconvert/meson.build create mode 100644 lib/meson.build create mode 100644 libdvbv5-po/meson.build create mode 100644 meson.build create mode 100644 meson_options.txt create mode 100644 utils/cec-compliance/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/cec-ctl/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/cec-follower/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/cx18-ctl/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/dvb/meson.build create mode 100755 utils/gen_media_bus_format_codes.sh create mode 100755 utils/gen_media_bus_format_names.sh create mode 100644 utils/ir-ctl/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/ivtv-ctl/meson.build create mode 100755 utils/keytable/bpf_protocols/clang_sys_includes.sh create mode 100644 utils/keytable/bpf_protocols/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/keytable/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/keytable/rc_keymaps/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/libcecutil/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/libmedia_dev/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/libv4l2util/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/media-ctl/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/qv4l2/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/qvidcap/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/rds-ctl/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/v4l2-compliance/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/v4l2-ctl/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/v4l2-dbg/meson.build create mode 100644 utils/v4l2-sysfs-path/meson.build create mode 100644 v4l-utils-po/meson.build create mode 100644 version.h.in
