[PATCH] meson: improve CPU affinity routines check
Posted by Roman Bogorodskiy 4 years, 2 months ago 
Recently, FreeBSD has got sched_get/setaffinity(3) implementations and
the sched.h header as well [1]. To make these routines visible,
users have to define _WITH_CPU_SET_T.

This breaks current detection. Specifically, meson sees the
sched_getaffinity() symbol and defines WITH_SCHED_GETAFFINITY. This
define unlocks Linux implementation of virProcessSetAffinity() and other
functions, which fails to build on FreeBSD because cpu_set_t is not
visible as _WITH_CPU_SET_T is not defined.

For now, change detection to the following:

 - Instead of checking sched_getaffinity(), check if 'cpu_set_t' is
   available through sched.h
 - Explicitly check the sched.h header instead of assuming its presence
   if WITH_SCHED_SETSCHEDULER is defined

Makes sense, although even the sched_getaffinity() is guarded by the new
_WITH_CPU_SET_T so there should be no error with the current code, am I
right?  And if I understand correctly we cannot use the FreeBSD
implementation as is because they do not have all the CPU_* macros we
need, right?

Nope, as I tried to explain in the commit message, the current code is
not working properly as it's using cc.has_function() for 'sched_getaffinity'
and this check passes because it's checking the specified function in
the standard library, so it works regardless of _WITH_CPU_SET_T. And as
it finds the sched_getaffinity(), the build still fails because we don't
set _WITH_CPU_SET_T.

Frankly speaking, I haven't yet tested this implementation. Currently,
virprocess.c is using the original FreeBSD interface: cpuset_(get|set)affinity.
Generally, it would be a good thing to use the same implementation for
both Linux and FreeBSD, however, this Linux-compatible interface in
FreeBSD is not yet available in any FreeBSD release, so we'll have to keep
the old code for some time anyway, and also I need to test if it
actually works for us and figure out how to better detect and pass this _WITH_CPU_SET_T
with meson.

Looking at the patches you linked to it seems like sched_getaffinity()
is hidden under #ifdef _WITH_CPU_SET_T, which made me think that
cc.has_function() should not find it.

Anyway the code is fine as it is, I was just wondering.
