Subject: [PATCH v2] config/ppc: fix gcc "internal compiler error" message for p10
Date: Tue, 27 Jun 2023 17:03:41 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230627210341.2516951-1-drc@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230627205437.2476729-1-drc@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Building DPDK with gcc 11.3.x for the power10 instruction set may
generate the following error:
../drivers/mempool/cnxk/cnxk_mempool_ops.c
during RTL pass: final
../drivers/mempool/cnxk/cnxk_mempool_ops.c:
In function ‘cnxk_mempool_alloc’:
../drivers/mempool/cnxk/cnxk_mempool_ops.c:124:1:
internal compiler error: output_operand: invalid expression as operand
124 | }
| ^
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
...
ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.
The same issue is not encountered when building with gcc 11.4 or
later, where the compiler automatically adds the option
"-mno-block-ops-vector-pair" when building for power10 which
is intended as a code optimization and also effectively avoids
the compiler bug displayed.
Modify the meson.build file for ppc and manually set the flag when
building for power10 with gcc less than 11.4.
