Thanks Arnd, this is very helpful. The first error message reported for that
test case is as follows:
<source>:34:286: error: call to '__compiletime_assert_655' declared with attribute error: BUILD_BUG_ON failed: ((u8 *)&(struct request_desc_header){ .enable_crypto = 1})[2] != 0x80
34 | do { __attribute__((__noreturn__)) extern void __compiletime_assert_655(void) __attribute__((__error__("BUILD_BUG_ON failed: " "((u8 *)&(struct request_desc_header){ .enable_crypto = 1})[2] != 0x80")));
if (!(!(((u8 *)&(struct request_desc_header){ .enable_crypto = 1})[2] != 0x80))) __compiletime_assert_655(); } while (0);
|
If I change the return type of ufshcd_check_header_layout() from void
into unsigned int and insert the following at the start of that function:
return ((u8 *)&(struct request_desc_header){ .enable_crypto = 1})[2] != 0x80;
then the compiler shows the following in the output window:
xorl %eax, %eax
In other words, the expression next to the return statement evaluates to zero
but the same expression does not evaluate to zero in the BUILD_BUG_ON()
statement. Does this perhaps indicate a compiler bug? And if so, what is the
appropriate way to fix the build error? Insert an #ifdef/#endif pair inside
ufshcd_check_header_layout() such that the compile-time checks do not happen
for gcc version 9 or older?
Thanks,
Bart.
