The 'date' and 'time' arguments are normally being set by
'ovs_set_program_name' using __DATE__ and __TIME__. However, this
breaks reproducible builds since even without any changes in the
toolchain, build system etc, the end binary will still differ in
that regard. This is also visible when building with -Wdate-time:
utilities/ovs-dpctl.c:61:29: warning: macro "__DATE__" might prevent
reproducible builds [-Wdate-time]
set_program_name(argv[0]);
^
and it's also something that triggers the following warning in the
openSUSE OBS builds:
[...]
openvswitch.x86_64: W: file-contains-date-and-time /usr/bin/ovs-ofctl
openvswitch.x86_64: W: file-contains-date-and-time /usr/bin/ovs-appctl
Your file uses __DATE and __TIME__ this causes the package to rebuild
when not needed
[...]
This patch drops these two arguments from ovs_set_program_name__ and
renames the function to ovs_set_program_name dropping the previous
preprocessor macro in the process.
This finally removes the remaining references to __DATE__ and __TIME__
from the sources which is something that has already been done in
commit 26bfaeaa9687 ("Stop using __DATE__ and __TIME__ in startup
string.") for the kernel datapath.
