8Instructions for importing a new release of SQLite from sqlite.org.
9
10Note: our current base version is 3.7.6.3.
11
12First, you need to be on Linux.
13
14# Determine the versions of the release you want and the release we currently
15# have. (See the VERSION file to determine which release we currently have.)
16# You may wish to consult http://www.sqlite.org/changes.html to find out what
17# changes have been made in each release.
18# Note - this is just an example. Always refer to the version above for our
19# real current version.
20# Set some variables to remember the versions, e.g.:
21BASE=3.7.6.3
22LATEST=3.7.6.4
23
24# Get to the src/third_party directory in your Chromium client:
25cd src/third_party
26
27# Download the .tar.gz files for the releases:
28# (If the URL changes you might need to find the new one.)
29# TODO(shess): Rewrite this to track the new naming format.  Meanwhile,
30# manually navigate to www.sqlite.org and find downloads, use "legacy" version.
31wget http://www.sqlite.org/sqlite-$BASE.tar.gz
32wget http://www.sqlite.org/sqlite-$LATEST.tar.gz
33
34# Extract the vanilla current and desired versions:
35tar xzf sqlite-$BASE.tar.gz
36tar xzf sqlite-$LATEST.tar.gz
37
38# Use kdiff3 to merge the changes:
39kdiff3 -m sqlite-$BASE sqlite-$LATEST sqlite
40
41# Resolve any conflicts.  Figure out if we've got everything we should
42# have (see below), or if we can omit any changes we no longer need.
43
44# Change to the sqlite directory:
45cd sqlite
46
47# Run the google_generate_amalgamation.sh script:
48./google_generate_amalgamation.sh
49
50# Find a sucker.  Send review.
51# TODO(shess) Describe an appropriate comment style.  Seems like it
52# should at least include the SQLite version number.
53
54--------------------------------------------
55
56For reference, all of our local patches are also kept as .patch files in the
57sqlite directory. Here is a list of the patches, in the order they should be
58applied to a vanilla SQLite (of the version we currently have) to get, in
59principle, exactly what is checked in:
60
61misc.patch
62preload-cache.patch
63safe-tolower.patch
64fts2.patch
65fts3.patch
66fts3_85522.patch
67icu-regexp.patch
68icu-shell.patch
69attach-integer.patch
70webdb.patch
71test.patch
72mac_time_machine.patch
73system-sqlite.patch
74sqlite-3.7.6.3-fix-out-of-scope-memory-reference.patch
75misalignment.patch
76memcmp.patch
77separate_cache_pool.patch
78recover.patch
79
80So, e.g. you could do this to apply all our patches to vanilla SQLite:
81
82cd sqlite-$LATEST
83patch -p0 < ../sqlite/misc.patch
84patch -p0 < ../sqlite/preload-cache.patch
85patch -p0 < ../sqlite/fts2.patch
86patch -p0 < ../sqlite/fts3.patch
87patch -p0 < ../sqlite/fts3_85522.patch
88patch -p0 < ../sqlite/icu-shell.patch
89patch -p0 < ../sqlite/webdb.patch
90patch -p0 < ../sqlite/test.patch
91patch -p0 < ../sqlite/mac_time_machine.patch
92patch -p0 < ../sqlite/system-sqlite.patch
93patch -p0 < ../sqlite/sqlite-3.7.6.3-fix-out-of-scope-memory-reference.patch
94patch -p0 < ../sqlite/misalignment.patch
95patch -p0 < ../sqlite/memcmp.patch
96patch -p0 < ../sqlite/separate_cache_pool.patch
97patch -p0 < ../sqlite/recover.patch
98
99This will only be the case if all changes we make also update the corresponding
100patch files. Therefore please remember to do that whenever you make a change!
101
102Descriptions of the changes we've made can be found at the bottom of this file.

106How to run the SQLite tests for the Chromium version of SQLite on Linux.
107
108Prerequisties: On my corp Ubuntu 8.04 workstation, I needed to install the
109following packages:
110sudo apt-get install tcl8.4-dev libicu-dev
111
112cd src/third_party/sqlite/src
113mkdir build
114cd build
115make -f ../Makefile.linux-gcc testfixture
116make -f ../Makefile.linux-gcc test > /tmp/test.log
117egrep -v 'Ok$' /tmp/test.log
118# For an ideal test run, you would see:
119# 0 errors out of 57887 tests
120# However, the current situation on my corp Linux Ubuntu 8.04 machine, with
121# test run on a locally mounted directory, is the failure of:
122# "rollback-2.3", "tkt3457-1.4"
123# I do not know why, but it is not related to our fts2.c changes -- I backed
124# them out to check.

130As of May 07, 2010, these are our changes from sqlite_vendor:
131
132 - A fix for a crash passing an integer expression to ATTACH / DETACH. See
133 attach-integer.patch
134 - A fix for a crash mis-calling the REGEXP() function of the ICU extension.
135 See icu-regexp.patch
136 - A large number of fts2 robustness fixes against corrupt data in its metadata
137   tables.
138 - fts2.c disables fts2_tokenizer().
139 - fts3.c disables fts3_tokenizer().
140 - Tweak to SQLITE_EXTENSION_INIT* in sqlite3ext.h.
141   - That implied a change in src/test_autoext.c for testing.
142 - Added fts.test in tests, modified quick.test.
143 - Modifications to Makefile.linux-gcc and main.mk for compiling
144   SQLite tests.
145 - Compile warning (cast to void* for sqlite3_free) fixed in func.c.
146 - Avoid using tolower() in fts code which causes problem in some locales, see:
147   safe-tolower.patch
148   http://crbug.com/15261
149   http://www.sqlite.org/src/tktview/991789d9f3136a0460dc83a33e815c1aa9757c26
150 - Check that the third argument to memset() is nonzero in expr.c to avoid
151   a linker warning when the compiler can optimize it to a constant zero
152   (e.g. see http://www.sqlite.org/cvstrac/tktview?tn=3765,39)
153
154Changes from Chrome:
155 - I marked all changes I made with "evanm", so you can find them with
156   "grep evanm *".
157 - Most files include sqlite3ext.h with SQLITE_CORE #defined, but two don't:
158   fts2_tokenizer.c and icu.c.  Without this #define, the calls in
159   fts2_tokenizer.c try to go through some pointer to the sqlite API instead
160   of calling the functions directly (to work as a loadable module), but then
161   crash (because the other files never initialize that loadable module
162   support).  As a hack I #defined it in these files, but it'd be nice to
163   figure out what really ought to happen here (perhaps this file is new and
164   hasn't been tested to verify it works right).  Update: Seems this is an
165   issue we get because we're using fts2 instead of fts3.
166 - shell_icu_win.c and shell_icu_linux.c are Chrome-specific files used to load
167   our ICU data.  shell.c has been modifed to call into these files.
168 - fts2_icu.c and fts3_icu.c have a critical bug. U8_NEXT is used over
169   a UTF-16 string. It's rep$ by U16_NEXT (jungshik)
170 - Added a new function sqlite3_preload we use to prime the database cache. It
171   allows much faster performance by reading the file in one contiguous
172   operation rather than bringing it in organically, which involves a lot of
173   seeking. This change also required sqlite3PcacheGetCachesize to be compiled
174   even outside SQLITE_TEST.
175 - Added a new function chromium_sqlite3_initialize_win_sqlite3_file()
176   at the end of os_win.c. It allows the Windows-specific Chromium VFS
177   to reuse most of the win32 SQLite VFS.
178 - Added a new function
179   chromium_sqlite3_initialize_unix_sqlite3_file() and made
180   fillInUnixFile() non-static in os_unix.c. It allows the
181   Linux-specific Chromium VFS to reuse most of the unix SQLite VFS.
182 - Exposed three functions that deal with unused file descriptors in
183   os_unix.c, to allow Chromium's Posix VFS implementation in
184   WebKit/WebCore/platform/sql/chromium/SQLiteFileSystemChromiumPosix.cpp
185   to correctly implement the "unused file descriptors" logic in the
186   xDlOpen() method. The new functions are
187   chromium_sqlite3_get_reusable_file_handle(),
188   chromium_sqlite3_update_reusable_file_handle() and
189   chromium_sqlite3_destroy_reusable_file_handle(). Also, added the
190   chromium_sqlite3_fill_in_unix_sqlite3_file() function that calls
191   fillInUnixFile(), which will be made static again as soon as a
192   WebKit patch using the new function lands.
193 - From mac_time_machine.patch:
194   When __APPLE__ and when creating a -journal file with any unix-type vfs,
195   determine if the database for which the journal is being created has been
196   excluded from being backed up using Apple's Time Machine and if so then also
197   exclude the journal. These changes were made in pager.c with includes of
198   Apple interfaces being made in sqliteInt.h. In order to eliminate a symbol
199   conflict with an Apple library after amalgamation it was also necessary to
200   rename fts3_porter.c's 'cType' to 'vOrCType'.
201 - fts3_85522.patch allows fts3 to work if PRAGMA is not authorized.
202 - src/recover.c file implements a virtual table which can read
203   through corruption.
204 - Enable the macro 'SQLITE_TEMP_STORE=3' for Android.
205 - memcmp.patch backports ASAN-related fixes from SQLite trunk.
