Due to the delay in the acceptance of the cmake modifications to Dyninst (~1.5 years), omnitrace eventually ended up with a fork of Dyninst that became extremely difficult to sync. Even moreso because of the ill-fated decision to apply source formatting. Furthermore, when Dyninst did update their cmake, they removed the option is install the dependencies. Thus the following steps need to be taken to bring Dyninst up to date:

  • Move the options to build TBB, Boost, ElfUtils, and LibIberty into Omnitrace as this is important for packaging an installation of omnitrace that does not require the user to separately install these libs
  • Update the Dyninst submodule to clone their releases
  • Change all references to DYNINST_BUILD_<DEP> to be OMNITRACE_BUILD_<DEP> in the various scripts
  • Patch the base docker images used for CI (which pre-install Dyninst) in the absence of there being a Dyninst cmake option to build the deps
