[PATCH 1/2] libxl: ensure var is inited in libxl__domain_firmware

[PATCH 1/2] libxl: ensure var is inited in libxl__domain_firmware

[Doug Goldstein]

Some versions of GCC complain that the 'firmware' variable can be used
uninitialized. It looks like the switch inside of the else case is just
confusing GCC.

[PATCH 2/2] tools: detect appropriate debug optimization level

[Doug Goldstein]

The build should not use -O0 as that results in miscompilations. There
have been a few instances on the ML where users were told to switch
from -O0 to -O1 or -O2 or to set debug=n and their issue went away. The
preferred route should be to use -Og if its available, otherwise use
-O1 which is the default. This change undoes the change from -O1 to -O0
in 1166ecf781b1016eaa61f8d5ba4fb1fde9d599b6.

This needs some (concrete) references. Is that a known issue in gcc? If
so can you reference the bug number?

gcc manual says -O0 is the default.

Not that I disagree with this patch in general, but the commit message
seems a bit misleading.

And I have no idea why -O1 confuses the debugger so I've CC'ed Euan for
more input.

So its not really a bug in GCC but just the complete lack of
optimizations in play. inlines aren't inlined. dead code elimination
isn't run so things are much bigger. structures aren't padded the same way.

This came about from reading reports on the -devel and -user's ML that
were solved by building Xen with debug=n. I was also striving to reduce
the duplication of CFLAGS that are passed on the command line of builds.

I wasn't clear about where the 'the default' came from. That's the
default in the Xen tree (see: config/StdGNU.mk for example but every
platform has -O1 set).

I can rewrite it. I'd also be willing to change the patch to prefer -Og
if its available and use -O0 if its not.

-O1 can optimize things out when you look at them with gdb but -Og is
suppose to do the right thing.

.. I don't know much about gcc so I would like to wait for Ian to give
some input.

So just reading through the history -- I'm a bit confused why, if -Og
is supposed to "do the right thing", why you didn't add that in this
patch?

In any case, having debug=y *functioning* should take priority over
having gdb working, so I'm inclined to say that we should take a patch
like this.

I did.

+$(call cc-option-add,CFLAGS,CC,-Og)

That tests to see if the version of GCC you're using supports that flag
and if it does adds it. Otherwise it does nothing. Per the README we
support down to GCC 4.1.2 and -Og was added in 4.7 I believe. For
versions of GCC older than 4.7 this uses the debug=y default of -O1
instead of using -O0 which is known to break in some cases.

Gah -- sorry, my eyes skipped over that when skimming this thread.
Sorry about that. :-)

So it looks like we're still waiting for someone who knows more about
gcc to comment.

Andy, you seems to know this sort of thing -- would you be willing
take a look?  Otherwise we may have to ping IanJ out-of-band.

My initial reaction is that I any actual problems are bugs either in
the compiler or in Xen, which should be fixed.

There should be nothing wrong with lack of inlining or dead code
elimination.  If you can give an example of structure padding going
wrong, please do.

Ian.

Having said that, the reason for specifying -O0 is the use case that
gcc now provides -Og for.  So I see no harm and some benefit in using
-Og if it is supported.

Ok fine, I'm just confused why we're insisting on using -O0 over -Og?

From the gcc manual:

-Og
Optimize debugging experience. -Og enables optimizations that do not
interfere with debugging. It should be the optimization level of choice
for the standard edit-compile-debug cycle, offering a reasonable level
of optimization while maintaining fast compilation and a good debugging
experience.

I know in the Linux kernel the level of optimization must be -O2,
because there are certain things that rely on dead code elimination to
function properly.  I'm not sure if the Xen hypervisor has similar
requirements, but I'd be rather surprised if it didn't.

It would be nice to know what functionality in the tools relied on
inlining and/or dead code elimination (and under what circumstances),
but we probably have better things to do than make -O0 to work. :-)

To summarise: I agree with using -Og if it is available.  But I
disagree with reverting 1166ecf7 in the case where it isn't; if -Og is
not available, we should stick with -O0.

I'm open to persuasion in the latter point but I would like specific
examples of problems (and then I would form an opinion about the
specific problems), not generalities.

Doug, would you like to, for now, propose a patch that uses -Og if it
is available, but otherwise falls back to -O0 ?  NB that if
convenient, this can be done simply by always specifying -O0 and
putting -Og after it if it is supported.

Thanks,
Ian.

I agree that it would be good to include specific bugs that this
fixes.  Presuming that they are as described (compilation errors for
reasonable setups), I continue to think that making things compile for
everyone is more important than making them debuggable via gdb for
people running compilers that don't support -Og.

I think making debug builds debuggable for people with non-broken
compilers is more important than making debug builds build for people
with broken compilers.

(Under some unstated but I think reasonable, and rebuttable,
assumptions about the sizes of the two sets of people.)

Non-debug builds are, after all, not affected by any of this.

Ian.

I sent these two together but they really aren't dependent on each other
