[cmake] Add support for defining feature flags #4582

jimporter · 2025-12-15T22:17:36Z

Description

This adds a feature_flag macro in CMake that we can use to define feature flags, plus an option (MP_DISABLE_ALL_FEATURES) to disable them all in one go. We can then set this flag in the CI for our release branches (and nightly builds).

    set(NEW_VERSION ${GIT_RELEASE})
  elseif(GIT_VERSION_MATCH AND MULTIPASS_BUILD_LABEL)
    set(NEW_VERSION ${GIT_TAG}.${CMAKE_MATCH_1}.${MULTIPASS_BUILD_LABEL}+${CMAKE_MATCH_2})


And, apply the -noff suffix after the hash.

Should we do this automatically based on the state of MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES, or maybe just add a new option like MP_VERSION_SUFFIX that we can set in CI? The former is simpler, but wouldn't account for a build with some feature flags enabled and others disabled. (I'm not sure we want that just yet, but it could come in handy if we want to publish Snaps for testing a given feature.)

I think it should correspond with the state of MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES so that a generated package is in line with how cmake configured the build. See my other comment for more context.

Good point @jimporter! How about multipass_feature requiring a short suffix when declaring the feature, then append all suffixes? It could become long with multiple features... :/ Maybe just join all enabled feature names and generate a 4 char hash or something?

@sharder996 Ok, I've shuffled things around so that versioning.cmake can automatically set the -noff suffix for us.

@ricab I didn't add this extra bit, since after thinking it over, it's (hopefully) just a theoretical problem for now. While we might do local builds with certain optional features on or off, I don't think we'll be distributing them anywhere.

@ricab Ok, I added a -custom suffix any time the feature flag set doesn't match the defaults. It checks ${FEATURE}_AVAILABLE, and if any feature is available but not enabled, it counts as a custom build. (Note that when disabling MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES, all the features are marked unavailable, so that doesn't count as "custom".)

That sounds good, thanks a lot!

To confirm, that means:

no suffix in a proper release → no feature flags enabled

no suffix in outside release (dev) → all feature flags enabled

-noff suffix → no feature flags, outside release

custom suffix → any other option.

Is this correct?

@ricab Close: release versions never get a suffix (so technically, you could make a custom release build that doesn't have the custom suffix). There might be some benefit in adding a suffix in non-default cases, but I don't think we'd actually do that (and I'm not 100% sure adding a suffix is the right thing to do in this hypothetical situation anyway).

OK, that makes sense to me too. We retain the ability to tweak a release as we choose, but FF are disabled by default.

Do you think it's worth sticking a corrected version of the topics above in https://github.com/canonical/mp-dev-wiki?

Sure, I can try and update that. It looks like there's still some documentation about the open-source vs "full" variants of Multipass in there, so that's probably the first thing to update.

Is it possible to make this override cached variables? For example, if I configure a build directory while on a release branch, MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES=OFF, as expected. However if I reconfigure that build directory with my own development branch, MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES won't switch on. I have to do it manually with -DMP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES=ON.

sharder996

@jimporter Did something change in your most recent rebase? I'm noticing some things that I think were here and are now missing. For example, MP_DISABLE_ALL_FEATURES doesn't seem to exist in the code and:

% cmake -Bbuild -H. -GNinja -DMULTIPASS_ENABLE_FLUTTER_GUI=OFF -DMP_DISABLE_ALL_FEATURES=ON
-- APPLEVZ_ENABLED = ON
-- AVAILABILITY_ZONES_ENABLED = ON

Also, I think the -noff part of the version is missing.

% cmake -Bbuild -H. -GNinja -DMULTIPASS_ENABLE_FLUTTER_GUI=OFF  
-- APPLEVZ_ENABLED = ON
-- AVAILABILITY_ZONES_ENABLED = ON
...
-- Setting version to: 1.17.0-dev.1346+g9b831154.mac
-- Setting semantic version to: 1.17.0-dev.1346
-- Setting build number to: 2609058132

And, I still see the case where cached variables aren't being overwritten (as per my previous comment).

From some prior discussions (I think in meetings last year), I changed this variable to be MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES so that the variable name didn't contain a negative.

Also, I think the -noff part of the version is missing.

This should work if you pass -DMP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES=OFF.

And, I still see the case where cached variables aren't being overwritten (as per my previous comment).

I'm not sure how to fix this part though. I'll do some more digging to see if there's a workaround, but CMake's documentation on this doesn't address this case from what I can see.

sharder996 · 2026-01-06T02:31:37Z

Thanks for the reminder 😄 last year's discussions are still a little fuzzy. Regardless, I think the PR description is/was outdated. I think that part looks good.

As for cached variables, it would be really nice if we could figure out how to override them. Otherwise, it would make it confusing when you tell cmake to do one thing and it does another. Summoning the cmake guru, @xmkg, to see if maybe he has some ideas.

I have something that I think works for this now. It makes it harder to set this in the CMake GUI, but I'm not sure if we can get that and selectively-cache the value like this version is doing now.

Ok, I think this is on the right track now. A default build turns on optional features:

% cmake -Bbuild -H. -GNinja -DMULTIPASS_ENABLE_FLUTTER_GUI=OFF 
-- MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES = ON
-- APPLEVZ_ENABLED = ON
-- AVAILABILITY_ZONES_ENABLED = ON

A subsequent re-configure turns all features off:

% cmake -Bbuild -H. -GNinja -DMULTIPASS_ENABLE_FLUTTER_GUI=OFF -DMP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES=OFF
-- MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES = OFF
-- APPLEVZ_ENABLED = OFF
-- AVAILABILITY_ZONES_ENABLED = OFF

But, going back to a default build does not turn the feature back on:

% cmake -Bbuild -H. -GNinja -DMULTIPASS_ENABLE_FLUTTER_GUI=OFF
-- MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES = OFF
-- APPLEVZ_ENABLED = OFF
-- AVAILABILITY_ZONES_ENABLED = OFF

% cmake -Bbuild -H. -GNinja -DMULTIPASS_ENABLE_FLUTTER_GUI=OFF
-- MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES = OFF
-- APPLEVZ_ENABLED = OFF
-- AVAILABILITY_ZONES_ENABLED = OFF

As far as I can tell from the CMake documentation and how option is specified, this is the expected behavior here. If you specify any CMake option on the command line, and then remove it in a subsequent call to CMake, it'll retain whatever value you set it to. If you want it to have some other value (e.g. whatever the default is), you have to override the previously-cached value.

I'm not exactly a fan of this behavior and find CMake's cache variables a bit confusing from a user PoV, but this does seem like what the CMake maintainers intend to happen.

sharder996

Ok, at least we tried. Otherwise, I think this looks good and is in a good state to add any of the additional features we talked about in the spec.

xmkg · 2026-01-07T08:46:01Z

As for cached variables, it would be really nice if we could figure out how to override them. Otherwise, it would make it confusing when you tell cmake to do one thing and it does another. Summoning the cmake guru, @xmkg, to see if maybe he has some ideas.

So the behavior you've described is exactly how cached variables supposed to behave, but that's not ideal for our use case. AFAICT we want to be able to:

a) Determine a default MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES value based on the branch when not explicitly given by user
b) Always respect user's explicit overrides, regardless of MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES is already cached or not

Part a is already addressed, but part b is not. There are two ways to solve this:

1-) At build time:

Adding --fresh to configure command (e.g. cmake --fresh -S . -B build /*...*/) (requires CMake 3.24+)
- Pros: it works, cons: nukes all cached variables, you have to remember setting it
Explicitly undefine the MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES variable so the CMake code would re-evaluate it. (cmake -UMP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES -S . -B build)
- Pros: it works, it's isolated cons: you have to remember setting it

2-) Use the two variables trick

User-exposed option is a separate CMake variable so we can determine if and when we should invalidate the internal one:

if(DEFINED MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES)
  # User is explicitly overriding -- use that value.
  set(MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES_INTERNAL "${MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES}" CACHE INTERNAL
        "allow optional features" FORCE)
  # The variables passed via -D are automatically cached, so it's up to us to remove
  # the transient variable from the cache
  unset(MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES)
  unset(MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES CACHE)
else()
    # Unset the previously cached variable as a good measure so we can re-determine its value.
    unset(MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES_INTERNAL CACHE)
    # Otherwise, just temporarily set its value based on whether we're on a release branch. This way,
    # if we change branches, the value will automatically update.
    is_release_branch(GIT_IS_RELEASE_BRANCH)
    if(GIT_IS_RELEASE_BRANCH)
      set(MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES_INTERNAL OFF)
    else()
      message(STATUS "in feature branch")
      set(MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES_INTERNAL ON)
    endif()
endif()

macro(feature_flag option doc)
  if(${ARGC} GREATER 2)
    cmake_dependent_option(${option} "${doc}" ON "MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES_INTERNAL;${ARGV2}" OFF)
  else()
    cmake_dependent_option(${option} "${doc}" ON MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES_INTERNAL OFF)
  endif()
endmacro()

Passing an argument via -D... always creates a cached variable so the code also explicitly unset the user-defined arg after consumption.

@sharder996 with the patch above your initial example becomes:

Initial configure:

❯ cmake -S . -B build
-- in feature branch
-- MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES_INTERNAL = ON
-- APPLEVZ_ENABLED = OFF
-- AVAILABILITY_ZONES_ENABLED = ON

User override:

❯ cmake -S . -B build -DMP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES=OFF
-- MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES_INTERNAL = OFF
-- APPLEVZ_ENABLED = OFF
-- AVAILABILITY_ZONES_ENABLED = OFF

No-arg reconfigure:

❯ cmake -S . -B build
-- in feature branch
-- MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES_INTERNAL = ON
-- APPLEVZ_ENABLED = OFF
-- AVAILABILITY_ZONES_ENABLED = ON

Let me know if the behavior above is what you had in mind.

sharder996 · 2026-01-07T14:21:59Z

@xmkg Typo? Both APPLEVZ_ENABLED and AVAILABILITY_ZONES_ENABLED should be ON.

No-arg reconfigure:
❯ cmake -S . -B build
-- in feature branch
-- MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES_INTERNAL = ON
-- APPLEVZ_ENABLED = OFF
-- AVAILABILITY_ZONES_ENABLED = ON
Let me know if the behavior above is what you had in mind.

I'm in Linux so it can't be enabled:

feature_flag(APPLEVZ_ENABLED "AppleVZ backend" APPLE)

(Note the APPLE prerequisite)

sharder996 · 2026-01-07T14:36:30Z

@xmkg Only odd behavior I found with your patch is:

% cmake -Bbuild -H. -GNinja -DMP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES=OFF -DAPPLEVZ_ENABLED=ON
-- MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES = ON
-- APPLEVZ_ENABLED = OFF
-- AVAILABILITY_ZONES_ENABLED = OFF

xmkg · 2026-01-07T14:54:20Z

cmake -Bbuild -H. -GNinja -DMP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES=OFF -DAPPLEVZ_ENABLED=ON

I can't reproduce it on my end:

❯ cmake -Bbuild -H. -DMP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES=OFF -DAPPLEVZ_ENABLED=ON
-- MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES (before processing) = OFF
-- MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES = 
-- MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES_INTERNAL = OFF
-- APPLEVZ_ENABLED = OFF
-- AVAILABILITY_ZONES_ENABLED = OFF

You might need to nuke the build folder if the variable is already cached (from the previous runs with the older behavior).

Below is with ON for completeness:

❯ cmake -Bbuild -H. -DMP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES=ON -DAPPLEVZ_ENABLED=ON
-- MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES (before processing) = ON
-- MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES = 
-- MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES_INTERNAL = ON
-- APPLEVZ_ENABLED = OFF
-- AVAILABILITY_ZONES_ENABLED = ON

sharder996 · 2026-01-07T15:14:06Z

Alright, up to @jimporter and other reviewers what they think. I know its not unheard of to have other weird behavior when re-configuring build directories, so we don't have to get too fancy.

xmkg · 2026-01-07T15:35:20Z

Alright, up to @jimporter and other reviewers what they think. I know its not unheard of to have other weird behavior when re-configuring build directories, so we don't have to get too fancy.

I mean, it should be consistent in behavior once you've done a clean build with the patch. I recall observing the same and the issue disappeared after configuring it from scratch. If it's flaky, let me know because that's an issue :)

sharder996 · 2026-01-07T15:40:42Z

@xmkg I'll use a different flag to remove the platform ambiguity.

% cmake -Bbuild -H. -GNinja -DMP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES=OFF -DAVAILABILITY_ZONES_ENABLED=ON
-- MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES = 
-- APPLEVZ_ENABLED = OFF
-- AVAILABILITY_ZONES_ENABLED = OFF

I guess the surprising part to me is that MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES overrides setting individual feature flags. For the case where I only want to enable one specific flag.

I guess the surprising part to me is that MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES overrides setting individual feature flags. For the case where I only want to enable one specific flag.

To me, the name sounds like it's a prerequisite for all the optional flags, but I'm not sure if that was the intent. Maybe @jimporter can clarify that part.

sharder996 · 2026-01-07T15:43:43Z

@xmkg I agree with your point on semantics. I just don't see an easy way of only enabling one feature flag.

jimporter · 2026-01-07T15:56:37Z

@sharder996 I don't have a strong preference here, so feel free to overrule me, but for caching variables, I like option (1) from @xmkg's comment (using --fresh or -UMP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES). As far as I understand it, that's consistent with how cache variables normally work in CMake, so resetting MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES would work the same way as for resetting any specific feature flag, as well as any other option settings we have in CMake. I find it a little less intuitive than option (2), but I think being consistent with the rest of CMake is worth it.

I guess the surprising part to me is that MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES overrides setting individual feature flags. For the case where I only want to enable one specific flag.

Right. This is a "disable all" flag, as opposed to setting the default value for feature flags. Since the number of active feature flags will probably be small, and in most cases we probably want to enable/disable all features (or maybe occasionally disable a single feature), I think this covers the practical cases we care about. Having some MP_DEFAULT_FEATURE_FLAG_STATE variable instead would be a bit more flexible, though it would be more work to get that to play nicely with CMake cache variables; the current code just relies on cmake_dependent_option to automatically update each feature flag if you change the overall flag.

I don't mind the idea of changing these semantics, though I'm not sure it'll come up in practice to make it worth the extra complexity. In practice, I imagine we'll mostly avoid setting feature flags (including MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES) manually when doing builds, and just rely on the branch-detection logic.

sharder996 · 2026-01-07T16:30:27Z

Ok, so the current scenarios that work are:

all on
all off
all on and manually turn specific flags off

The scenario that I thought might be missing was:

all off and manually turn specific flags on

Regardless, my approval still stands and I'm fine either way.

xmkg

LGTM, thanks Jim! Also thanks for tidying up the CMake code, it looks much better.

Not sure what, if anything has changed since @xmkg's last review, but feel free to hit the merge button if its just a rebase.

@sharder996 This commit is the only new bit: 8af9c88

We can use this to determine the default value of `MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES`.

This ensures that when we don't set MP_ALLOW_OPTIONAL_FEATURES explicitly, our CMake configuration doesn't cache the value, allowing us to automatically update it based on the Git branch state.

sharder996 · 2026-01-09T22:34:21Z

@jimporter I noticed an issue with snap packages. Snapcraft only allow a version length of 32 characters. The extra suffixes are pushing it over that limit. We might have to do something similar to what we do in Windows where the package version is slightly truncated, but the internal version as reported by multipassd is the full version.

jimporter · 2026-01-09T23:34:35Z

@sharder996 Good catch! What do you think about this latest change? I adjusted how we get version info for Snapcraft by making a version-metadata.env file that we can use to retrieve the version when any other tools need it during the build process. That also means the snapcraft.yaml no longer relies on how we supply the version ID to our C++ code, which seems a bit cleaner to me.

This resolves an issue where our full versions generated in PRs is too long for Snap (which restricts version identifiers to 32 characters)

sharder996 · 2026-01-10T02:10:16Z

Looks good! I like that you were able to combine it with the GUI.

One other thing, though 😄 When I define a feature flag, say APPLEVZ_ENABLED, it is merely defined as a CMake variable. I can't use it as a preprocessor definition in C++ code to enabled bits of code.
