For both:

Tested-by: Roger Pau Monné <roger.pasu@citrix.com>
[On FreeBSD and Debian 9.5]
Reviewed-by: Roger Pau Monné <roger.pau@citrix.com>

Note there's a typo in this email's subject (clank v clang). Also, if
possible, could both patches have the same prefix? (x86/clang)

Thanks, Roger.

Thanks much. I'll take the liberty and drop the seemingly stray
's' from your email address here.

Yeah, I had noticed this right after sending. Fingers and brain
must have had a disconnect.

I did notice the prefix difference before sending the series. 
I wouldn't mind making both just x86: (moving "clang" elsewhere
in the title of yours), but I don't want to make mine have
x86/clang, because I think these should represent subsystems or
alike.

Oh, that's fine then. Feel free to move the 'clang' part somewhere
else. Ie: 'x86: move and fix .skip clang check' LGTM for example.

Thanks.

Roger,

Do we need to make changes to the containers that build the tree? These 
patches broken the clang builds in CI as can be seen here: 
https://gitlab.com/xen-project/xen/-/jobs/365246563#L2371

That's unexpected, the version of clang in that job is 3.5, so it
should be using -no-integrated-as which is it indeed doing. Will check
tomorrow to see what's going on.

Thanks, Roger.

[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 1/2] x86: fix clang .macro retention check
Posted by Jan Beulich 4 years, 5 months ago
There were two problems here: The first closing parentheses got parsed
by make to end the $(call invocation, and the escaping of the quotes
wasn't right either, as there's nowhere they would get un-escaped.

Furthermore there appears to be a puzzling problem with \n getting
expanded to an actual newline too early in some environments. Convert
these to semicolons at the same time.

Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@suse.com>

v2: Also replace \n by semicolons.

This needs to be tested in an environment where this was actually found
to matter; I can't see how it can have worked in its former shape. I
also don't understand why the same commit introducing the check that
gets fixed here put the .skip check in xen/Rules.mk - the only use of
.skip that I can spot is in x86 code.

[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 2/2] x86/clang: move and fix .skip check
Posted by Jan Beulich 4 years, 5 months ago
From: Roger Pau Monné <roger.pau@citrix.com>

.skip is only used by x86 code, so place the clang .skip with labels
check in x86/Rules.mk instead of the top level Rules.mk. While there
also fix an issue with it by removing the '\n' which triggers the
following error:

<stdin>:1:31: error: missing terminating '"' character [-Werror,-Winvalid-pp-token]
void _(void) { asm volatile ( ".L0:
                              ^
<stdin>:1:31: error: expected string literal in 'asm'
<stdin>:3:18: error: missing terminating '"' character [-Werror,-Winvalid-pp-token]
.skip (.L1 - .L0)" ); }
                 ^
<stdin>:3:24: error: expected ')'
.skip (.L1 - .L0)" ); }
