Okay, I'll try to find some time look into this.

Sure, no problem.  I'm not sure what the overall release schedule is, so
maybe it would be a 2.1 at some point soon?

Ok, thanks.  Out of curiosity, did run a "make check"?  That would validate that
the Python bindings (and everything else) works properly.

I agree, that's why we want to keep babeltrace building with clang (on top of 
having to
support macOS, on which clang is the default compiler).

We use the AX_APPEND_COMPILE_FLAGS autoconf macro [1] to determine which 
warning flags
the current compiler supports.  This calls the compiler with each flag 
individually
to see if the compiler supports that flag.  This requires that the compiler 
errors
out when passed an invalid flag.  Currently, it looks like icc emits a warning, 
but still
returns exit code 0 when passed an invalid flag, so we end up enabling all of 
them.  Try
to check in config.log to see what happens currently.  For example here are the 
test
results for two flags, one supported and one not supported by clang:

4625 configure:17825: checking whether C compiler accepts -Winit-self
4626 configure:17844: ccache clang -c -gdwarf-5 -g3 -O2 -fsanitize=address 
-Werror -Winit-self  conftest.c >&5
4627 configure:17844: $? = 0
4628 configure:17853: result: yes
4629 configure:17869: : WARN_CFLAGS="$WARN_CFLAGS"
4630 configure:17872: $? = 0
4631 configure:17825: checking whether C compiler accepts -Wduplicated-cond
4632 configure:17844: ccache clang -c -gdwarf-5 -g3 -O2 -fsanitize=address 
-Werror -Wduplicated-cond  conftest.c >&5
4633 error: unknown warning option '-Wduplicated-cond'; did you mean 
'-Wduplicate-enum'? [-Werror,-Wunknown-warning-option]
4634 configure:17844: $? = 1

If you can come up with the right incantation to make that work well with icc, 
we
can modify how we call the macro or modify the macro itself (sending a patch to
the upstream, Autoconf Archive).

Things have started to diverge a bit between master and the 2.0 branch, I'm not 
sure if we'll
be able to backport that, we'll see.

[Rocky Dunlap via lttng-dev]

Simon,

Success!  This change worked and I was able to build and install with icc.
Thank you!

I still get a lot of warnings during the build (see below) which seems like
configure should work these out ahead of time.  They are easy enough to
ignore, but if support for intel is added, it would be nice to have these
cleaned up.  For what it's worth, adding support for additional compilers
in my experience has greatly improved the quality of library code - it
tends to snuff out those bugs that are hard to find on a single compiler.

If you decide to merge this in, a release patch 2.0.3 would certainly be
helpful as well!

You need a babeltrace git repository.  If you don't already have one, you can 
clone it from here:

  https://github.com/efficios/babeltrace

You can then click the "DOWNLOAD" button on the patch's review page, or press 
`d` (a keybinding).

Copy the "Checkout" command (the first one) and paste it in your shell (while 
having the
repository as the current working directory).  You'll then have the code 
corresponding to
the proposed patch checked out and ready to build.  Note that when you build 
from the git
repo, you need to run ./bootstrap first, to generate the configure script.

If we want to go this route, here's a patch that implements it.

  https://review.lttng.org/c/babeltrace/+/3257

This makes it so we don't override the compiler or flags (other than necessary 
includes
flags) when building the native module.  So when configuring with CC=clang, the 
Python
native module gets built with the Python distribution's default compiler, with 
just the
flags it wants.

Could you check if that works with CC=icc as well?

I don't know if there's a good reason for them not to use $CC
for linking.  What's funny is that on Darwin/macOS they do it:

https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/6723e933c4d90a408cf3818362a0e4de6d84c932/Lib/distutils/sysconfig.py#L201-L209

Note that I don't know if Intel's Python distribution is using the
same distutils package as CPython.  But since you hit the same bug,
it must be quite close, if not the same.

There's a bug here about re-using CC for LDSHARED on Linux:

  https://bugs.python.org/issue24935

There are patches here

  https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/14950
  https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/7914

There wasn't much progress, but at least nobody spoke against them.

But even with that fixed there are other problems.  As I mentioned in my
previous message, in some cases, the CFLAGS value built into Python (which
means there's no easy way for us to override it) contains some flags
incompatible with clang (this could happen with icc too).  When trying to
build with CC=clang-9 on Arch Linux, I get:

ccache clang ... -fno-semantic-interposition ... -c bt2/native_bt.c -o 
build/temp.linux-x86_64-3.8/bt2/native_bt.o
clang-9: error: unknown argument: '-fno-semantic-interposition'

Arch Linux got this idea of building with `-fno-semantic-interposition` from 
Fedora:

  https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/PythonNoSemanticInterpositionSpeedup

So I guess we will face the same issue on Red Hat by the end of the decade.

So since distutils really wants to compile the Python native modules using all 
the same
flags as the Python interpreter was built with, I presume that they really 
assume that
you'll be using the exact same toolchain to build your module as was used to 
build the
interpreter.  Maybe we could just not pass CC/CFLAGS when building the Python 
module,
so it will simply be built with the same compiler/linker as Python was built 
with, and
we'll avoid all these problems...

Re: [lttng-dev] Babeltrace2 - compilation error with intel18

[Rocky Dunlap via lttng-dev]

Simon,

Thanks for this - so after I updated to gcc 9.2, the shared libraries
command ran correctly and the build finished. All the tests pass and I was
able to read in a CTF trace from a python script.

The issue was that the system gcc was gcc 4.X.X, so too old.  So, I had to
manually add the newer gcc to the path alongside the intel compiler.  I can
try to option of setting LDSHARED, but at this point that seems even more
confusing than just using the system gcc, which apparently has no trouble
linking intel object files into a shared library.  Maybe there are good
reasons why this is the case and this is why distutils does not use the
right compiler?

Ideally the build would just "work" with ./configure, make, make install
since these kinds of compilation issues can quickly get over people's heads
and cause them to abandon the library altogether.  I wonder if there is a
way for the configure/make to set the LDSHARED automatically so that is is
transparent to the user.  Certainly we are not the first to run into this
issue with distutils.

I've hit this exact issue by trying to compile with CC=clang.  This is due to an
oddity of distutils when it builds the native module, I don't really know what 
to
do about it.

When it compiles native_bt.o, distutils uses the compiler specified in CC, 
which is
what we want.  But when it links the shared object, it:

  - uses the default system compiler (often gcc), and
  - passes the flags specified in CFLAGS

However, CFLAGS contains the warning flags that our configure script determined
$CC accepts (note, that detection might not work well with icc, we haven't 
tested).

So we end up passing warning flags recognized by $CC (e.g. clang) to gcc, which 
makes
gcc error out.

distutils allows to override the command used to link shared libraries by 
setting the
LDSHARED variable.  So you could try to set LDSHARED to "icc" plus the right 
flags
required to link a shared lib.  For reference, the default LDSHARED value for 
your Python
installation can be checked with:

$ python3 -c 'import sysconfig; print(sysconfig.get_config_var("LDSHARED"))'
x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc -pthread -shared -Wl,-O1 -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions 
-Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -Wl,-z,relro

But even worse, when building with CC=clang on Arch Linux, I noticed that 
distutils
passes some gcc-specific flags (which don't come from us) when compiling.  I'm 
not
sure what we're going to

Hi Rocky,

I don't think we claim to support the Intel compiler, so you might be a bit
on your own here.  Although if you want to send patches to fix the build using
that compiler, I don't have anything against that.

It took me a bit of time to understand that this is Intel's Python 3
distribution, not CPython.

I think it's technically valid to use an undefined macro in a preprocessor
condition like that, in which case it gets replaced with 0 (as the error
message mentions).  The compiler is trying to be helpful and warns you, because
relying on that behavior is a bit fragile, and often a sign of a mistake
somewhere.  But since this happens in a library you are using, I think your best
bet is just to disable this warning.

I really don't understand this one, as format_exc_func_name is a const char *
in our code.

Simon,

I was able to get past the issue by passing "--enable-compile-warnings=yes"
to configure.

It get a lot further, then fails here:

I am surprised that this is using "gcc" here, shouldn't it be using "icc"
since I have CC=icc?

Or maybe it is supposed to be using gcc?  I think if I update the GCC
compiler version then it will get past this issue as well, but I just
wanted confirmation that this indeed should be using a combination of gcc
and icc?

If it should be icc, can you point me to where in the configure/make system
I can make this change to force it to use what's sets as CC instead of
defaulting to GCC?
