[PATCH] target/i386: Re-introduce few KVM stubs for Clang debug builds
Posted by Philippe Mathieu-Daudé 7 months, 2 weeks ago
Since commits 3adce820cf..ef1cf6890f, When building on
a x86 host configured as:

  $ ./configure --cc=clang \
    --target-list=x86_64-linux-user,x86_64-softmmu \
    --enable-debug

we get:

'--enable-debug' disables optimizations (CFLAGS=-O0).

While at this (un)optimization level GCC eliminate the
following dead code:

  if (0 && foo()) {
      ...
  }

Clang does not. Therefore restore a pair of stubs for
unoptimized Clang builds.

Why not just revert those two commits, since we now learned the rationale
for them was incorrect ?

Another approach is a static library with a .o file containing the
stubs so the linker only includes it in the executable if the compiler
emitted the symbols. That way there is no need for defined(__clang__)
&& !defined(__OPTIMIZE__) and it will work with other
compilers/optimization levels. It's more work to set up though.

Isn't that exactly how it was before the stubs were removed? It would be
a simple revert of that commit.

The approach with static inline functions defined only for a very
specific configuration looks a lot more fragile to me. In fact, I'm
surprised that it works because I think it requires that the header
isn't used in any files that are shared between user space and system
emulation - and naively cpu.c sounded like something that could be
shared. Looks like this patch only works because the linux-user target
uses a separate build of the same CPU emulation source file.

So I think reverting the commit that removed the stubs would be much
more obvious.

That's why both I and Stephan disliked the #ifdef condition, not the
approach.  If it were me, I'd change the condition to be !KVM and keep
the inline functions (or #defines for that matter), instead of re-
introducing stubs in a separate .c file.

Or instead of using linker behavior, maybe just change the #ifdef so it
only applies when KVM is disabled. I didn't look at the code to see if this
is possible, but it would be nice to avoid the very specific #ifdef
condition in this patch.

Yeah, this is definitely preferrable to define it based on !kvm instead of !optimize.

I mean the same thing when replied in the pullreq which broke things, - to base
it on !kvm.  But use something very similar to what Philippe did with the functions
themselves (not with the condition).
