The Bazel overlay is a directory at out/soong/bazel_overlay that
replicates the layout of the AOSP Soong module tree, but as a Bazel
workspace. Each Soong module variant is represented as a BUILD target
created with the `soong_module` rule.
To create this overlay, run `m bazel_overlay`.
A `soong_module` target can depend on other `soong_module` targets.
These dependencies replicate each module's `directDeps` in the Blueprint
graph, just before `PrepareBuildActions`.
This enables users to use bazel query as a way to introspect the Soong
module graph. For example,
- Direct reverse dependencies of //bionic/libc:generated_android_ids in
//bionic/libc/...:
$ bazel query 'rdeps(//bionic/libc/...,
//bionic/libc:generated_android_ids, 1)'
//bionic/libc:libc_bionic_ndk--android_recovery_arm_armv7-a-neon_static
//bionic/libc:libc_bionic_ndk--android_ramdisk_arm_armv7-a-neon_static
//bionic/libc:libc_bionic_ndk--android_arm_armv7-a-neon_static_com.android.runtime
//bionic/libc:libc_bionic_ndk--android_arm_armv7-a-neon_static
//bionic/libc:generated_android_ids
- Why does com.android.runtime depend on lzma?
$ bazel query
'somepath(//bionic/apex:com.android.runtime--android_common_com.android.runtime_image,
//external/lzma/...)'
//bionic/apex:com.android.runtime--android_common_com.android.runtime_image
//bionic/libc/malloc_debug:libc_malloc_debug--android_arm_armv7-a-neon_shared_com.android.runtime
//system/core/libunwindstack:libunwindstack--android_arm_armv7-a-neon_shared_com.android.runtime
//external/lzma/C:liblzma--android_arm_armv7-a-neon_shared_com.android.runtime
- What does the dep graph of //bionic/libc:crtbegin_so look like?
$ bazel query
'deps(//bionic/libc:crtbegin_so--android_arm_armv7-a-neon)'
--output=graph > graph.in && dot -Tpng < graph.in > graph.png

Test: croot && m bazel_overlay && cd out/soong/bazel_overlay && bazel
query //... && bazel query 'rdeps(//bionic/libc/...,
//bionic/libc:generated_android_ids, 1)'
