Since commit 5420639a8d (cmExecuteProcessCommand: Replace cmsysProcess
with cmUVProcessChain, 2023-06-01, v3.28.0-rc1~138^2~8) we have not
actually terminated child processes on an `execute_process` timeout.
Similarly for other migrations from cmsysProcess to cmUVProcessChain.
Teach cmUVProcessChain clients that implement timeouts to actually
terminate remaining child processes when the timeout is reached.
Fixes: #27378
Since commit 5420639a8d (cmExecuteProcessCommand: Replace cmsysProcess
with cmUVProcessChain, 2023-06-01, v3.28.0-rc1~138^2~8) we've
occasionally observed immediate timeouts on processes that take longer
than the timeout to start, even though we only start the timer after the
child processes start. The problem is that:
* `uv_loop_init` initializes `uv_loop_t`'s cached "now" time.
* Starting processes takes time but does not update the "now" time.
* `uv_timer_start` computes expiry relative the cached "now" time,
so short timers may be expired as soon as they are started.
* `uv_run` invokes expired timer callbacks before polling for I/O
or process completion, so we "timeout" immediately.
Fix this by updating the cached "now" time via `uv_update_time` just
before starting timers. This is needed only for timers that start
before the `uv_run` event loop. Update our `uv_timer_ptr` wrapper
to make all callers consider the choice when calling `start()`.
When CPS export fails due to a dependency on an improperly named
external target, reiterate the "canonical namespace" in the error
message for clarity.
When given the name of a project that doesn't exist, report it as an
"unknown project" rather than an "invalid project". This is more
consistent with other, similar reporting.
Since commit 13c7bb5b0c (cmGeneratorExpression: Update strip function to
collect parsed expressions, 2025-04-08, v4.1.0-rc1~361^2~1), the logic
to strip generator expressions would error if the stripped expressions
were being collected and an expression without a `:` was found inside an
expression with a `:`. This resulted in an error when exporting a target
that contained such a generator expression in its link libraries or
compile definitions.
Address the error by checking whether the latest `$<` proceeded the
latest `:`.
When a variable ends with a newline, the Ninja generator escapes it as
expected with `$\n`. However, when writing it out, whitespace is
trimmed. This leaves a trailing `$` instead which consumes the newline
and masks the following stanza. In a custom command, this hides the
`restat = 1` setting.
Detect this case and restore the newline as necessary.

In commit 9d44a77454 (find_*: Explicitly normalize found paths as they
exist on disk, 2024-10-17, v4.0.0-rc1~597^2~1), we removed path
normalization from the internal `cmSearchPath::AddPathInternal` helper.
Most call sites were updated to normalize input paths first, but search
paths derived from `<PackageName>_ROOT` CMake variables are no longer
normalized. Instead we normalize the path to the file found after
searching.
When `find_package` "config" mode considers a candidate CMake package
configuration file, normalize its path before loading the adjacent
package version file so that the latter is loaded by absolute path.
Otherwise `cmMakefile::ReadDependentFile` interprets a relative path
with respect to the current source directory rather than the current
working directory.

In general we disallow references to transitive target properties, such
as `COMPILE_DEFINITIONS`, in `[INTERFACE_]LINK_LIBRARIES` properties,
because the latter establish the transitivity itself. Prior to CMP0189,
the `[INTERFACE_]LINK_LIBRARIES` properties were not themselves transitive
in `$<TARGET_PROPERTY>` expressions, so existing projects have code like
target_link_libraries(foo PRIVATE "$<TARGET_PROPERTY:tgt,LINK_LIBRARIES>")
Policy CMP0189's NEW behavior, introduced by commit b3da9c6d60 (GenEx:
Evaluate LINK_LIBRARIES target properties transitively, 2025-02-24,
v4.1.0-rc1~731^2), makes `$<TARGET_PROPERTY:tgt,LINK_LIBRARIES>`
transitive, causing the above to be rejected. Since evaluation of a
target's link libraries can already encounter and handle other targets'
link libraries, allow it in this case.

Policy CMP0189, introduced by commit b3da9c6d60 (GenEx: Evaluate
LINK_LIBRARIES target properties transitively, 2025-02-24,
v4.1.0-rc1~731^2), takes effect at generation time, and so uses the
policy value as of the end of each directory. However, some projects
may rely on `file(GENERATE)` with the policy's OLD behavior in order
to extract targets' *direct* dependencies from `LINK_LIBRARIES`.
Pending a first-class solution to that problem, make it easier for
projects to port to the policy's NEW behavior in general while
retaining the OLD behavior in an isolated context.

Extend commit e8010b67c7 (cmGeneratorExpressionDAGChecker: Make local
generator available in constructor, 2024-04-25, v3.30.0-rc1~172^2~6) and
commit 633afa0b2e (cmGeneratorExpressionDAGChecker: Make config name
available in constructor, 2024-05-08, v3.30.0-rc1~82^2~2) to make the
full evaluation context available in the constructor.

Since upstream curl commit `1a12663d06` (CURLOPT: bump `CURLPROXY_*`
enums to `long`, drop casts, 2025-07-28), the `CURLPROXY_*` constants
are integer literals instead of `enum curl_proxytype`. It turns out
that `curl_easy_setopt` has always expected a `long` anyway, and that
`curl_proxytype` is not documented for public use.
Fixes: #27178
In c4d12d7d we changed how the project command handles various variables
and made the behavior consistent across all variables controlled by
the project command. The conditions under which project() modifies the
various VERSION variables are non-intuitive, but can be observed as
side-effects.
Because this behavior is observable, it requires a policy to be changed.
This commit reverts to the previous behavior until a policy is added
and adds a test for that behavior.

Revise the change from commit 5a36d0c9e7 (Ninja: Fix regression with a

command-line length limit small enough for `.bat` files.
