There are several, and I'm going to keep nalexander in the loop on these, so splitting from bug 1257326.
I found 6 variables along the way that are only checked in preprocessor directives, and are therefore not necessary to include in substs, so they are not included there as a result of this series. They are:

MOZ_ANDROID_APZ
MOZ_ANDROID_BEAM
MOZ_ANDROID_DOWNLOADS_INTEGRATION
MOZ_ANDROID_DOWNLOAD_CONTENT_SERVICE
MOZ_LOCALE_SWITCHER
MOZ_SWITCHBOARD
And do not port the subst, because its value is not used.

This does not port the subst, because its value is not used,
and removes MOZ_SWITCHBOARD from AppConstants.jsm, because its
value is not used.

Nick, can you glance over this patch series and confirm I've done something understandable and reasonable to work with for these flags? Thank you.

> Nick, can you glance over this patch series and confirm I've done something
> understandable and reasonable to work with for these flags? Thank you.

Chris and I talked over Video.  From a scratch etherpad:  """My desired API looks like:

feature('MOZ_ANDROID_FOO', conditions.is_nightly || !conditions.is_release)

I don't care if we ever declare --enable-android-foo, we can do this all with mozconfig env var declarations if we choose to.

I want to subst everywhere, globally define nowhere (since changing global defines recompiles C code and is expensive), and locally add to DEFINES."""

Chris told me there was a temporary restriction that templates can't set_config, and that the restriction would likely be addressed within a working week.  We agreed to revisit this when we can get a shorter form for each feature flag definition, surfacing the milestone flags more explicitly.
Flags: needinfo?(nalexander)
For reference, bug 1257823 is the proposal that looks promising, and would allow set_config to happen from a template. I'll cancel review here based on our discussion and comment 14.

Note this form cannot work.

What could work is something like:

feature('MOZ_ANDROID_FOO', milestone, lambda m: m.is_nightly || !m.is_release)

With some hack it /might/ be possible to do:

feature('MOZ_ANDROID_FOO', lambda milestone: milestone.is_nightly || !milestone.is_release)

But definitely not without a function being involved.

One can do things with conditions being a custom type that collects the expression tree before evaluation, but I agree, lambda is simpler.

Yeah, this looks much better.  My only request is that we use more descriptive names, like:

feature_enabled_nowhere(...)
feature_enabled_everywhere(...)
feature_enabled_nightly_only(...)
feature_enabled_after_beta(...)

Otherwise, this looks good.  BTW, no need to break this into a bunch of small patches if it's work to do so.  A pre or two and then the meat works for me.

seems like it would be better to have predefined callbacks for the condition, and just call
flag('FOO', 'This is foo', nightly_only).

flag is not very descriptive, though.

Fine by me.  I was trying to avoid things that *should* look like "nightly | aurora", given earlier discussion.

Being limited to a milestone test seems fairly limited.

Instead, you could define enabled_in_nightly as:

@depends(milestone)
def enabled_in_nightly(milestone):
    return milestone.is_nightly

and @depends(condition) in the conditional_feature template.

That being said, set_config changes in bug 1257823  too (I'm waiting for try results to push it to mozreview)...

Bug 1257823 is going to help this a lot, I'll re-work this once that lands.

BTW, one-offs can also be done in one-liners:

template_name(..., depends(milestone)(lambda m: m.is_nightly))

Actually I don't see a lot to change other than to address this issue. I was thinking I could just set_config('MOZ_ANDROID...', delayed_getattr( milestone, 'is_nightly')) and not even define an option for these, but that would give up the ability to set things with env variables.

Which part is outdated? I've been working with this on top of central, it applies cleanly and works as expected. The subsequent patches are out of date with respect to how they get defines to package-manifest.in, I'm updating that now.
Flags: needinfo?(mh+mozilla)
I see, the patches that just hit inbound outdate this.
Flags: needinfo?(mh+mozilla)
Bug 1257823 did, but bug 1260066 that just landed enforces it.

I think it's very important to highlight that this is `set_config` only.  It might be worth adding a note on how to use it in `moz.build`, and how to make it a define (since that's often wanted).  Even just a reference to another file will help.

Right :/ According to glandium this is really the way to do this for now.

Ok, makes sense. If this is remotely likely to be checked from js in the future I'm creating a footgun by removing this, so I'll leave it for now.

You'd have more flexibility if you made the template return flag_implementation and let the caller do the set_config. That would make it two lines, but would allow to use set_define or add_old_configure_assignment as well.

The template itself should go in util.configure. The conditions, since they depend on milestone, need to go after milestone, unfortunately.

Also, the template can be used with conditions that have nothing to do with the milestone, so it feels restrictive to only comment about that.

This could just depend on '--help', since it returns True unconditionally.

The other thing I had in my queue at one point was "set_as_define" and "set_for_old_configure" keyword args to conditional_feature, which is verbose but effective. I'm not really going to take a stand on keeping these down to one line, but maybe Nick can chime in on this.

I don't care either way.  I think we should land something simple like this and re-jig it if we need to later.

Ok, then I will implement Mike's suggestion.
Hm... so I can't:

exclude_fonts = conditional_feature('MOZ_ANDROID_EXCLUDE_FONTS',
                                    'Whether to exclude font files from the build',
                                    enabled_everywhere)

set_config(*exclude_fonts)

because:

 0:00.57 KeyError: u'Cannot assign `exclude_fonts` because it is neither a @depends nor a @template'

huh? add_old_configure_assignment is declared (and used) in init.configure.

one of the upsides of NegativeOptionValue being mostly the same type as PositiveOptionValue (a tuple), and NegativeOptionValues always being empty, you can just write:
if len(value):
    return value

Why not just pass default=True?

why not pass default=delayed_getattr(milestone, 'is_nightly') ? mmmm I can answer this one: that wouldn't work because of the missing required dependency on --help... On the long term, I think delayed_getattr() would be better than many ad-hoc functions, but because of the --help dependency, this will have to wait (I'm planning to lift the requirement for most --help dependencies, stay tuned)

Err, I thought the comment was in old.configure. Forget it.

That didn't quite work, because PositiveOptionValue has a len of 0.

That's covered by the alternative path, that does return bool(value)

Ah, I misunderstood the suggestion. But still, for a NegativeOptionValue we need to return None, not False, for set_define.
Oh, I missed the indentation on the last line.

I'm going to carry forward the r+'s from Nick. The changes since them are cosmetic, with the exception of MOZ_ANDROID_APZ, whose default recently went from enabled in nightly to always on in the underlying confvars.sh.
