Recent toolchains support static and pie at the same time.
As with normal dynamic builds, allow --static to default to PIE
if supported by the toolchain. Allow --enable/--disable-pie to
override the default.
Backports commit 127814629b32d5e0de2873d742e08cb9bd412af7 from qemu
Some distributions, e.g. Ubuntu 19.10, enable PIE by default.
If for some reason one wishes to build a non-pie binary, we
must provide additional options to override.
At the same time, reorg the code to an elif chain.
Backports commit 2c674109c2da3f2e17b69f39e0b93b3f3d3dfa59 from qemu
There is nothing about these options that is related to PIE.
Use them unconditionally.
Backports commit e6cbd75158ea274ab98c13c9b73d2bc1d90aa50d from qemu
The CFLAGS_NOPIE and LDFLAGS_NOPIE variables are used
in pc-bios/optionrom/Makefile, which has nothing to do
with the PIE setting of the main qemu executables.
This overrides any operating system default to build
all executables as PIE, which is important for ROMs.
Backports commit b26341241bbfe9cc126479a0dbed5d40d547f242 from qemu
PIE is supported on many other hosts besides x86.
The default for non-x86 is now the same as x86: pie is used
if supported, and may be forced via --enable/--disable-pie.
The original commit (40d6444e91c) said:
"Non-x86 are not changed, as they require TCG changes"
but I think that's wrong -- there's nothing about PIE that
affects TCG one way or another.
Tested on aarch64 (bionic) and ppc64le (centos 7) hosts.
Backports commit d2cd29e30736afd4a1e8cac3cf4da360bbc65978 from qemu
The comment in tcg-runtime-gvec.c about CONFIG_VECTOR16 says that
tcg-op-gvec.c has eliminated size 8 vectors, and only passes on
multiples of 16. This may have been true of the first few operations,
but is not true of all operations.
In particular, multiply, shift by scalar, and compare of 8- and 16-bit
elements are not expanded inline if host vector operations are not
supported.
For an x86_64 host that does not support AVX, this means that we will
fall back to the helper, which will attempt to use SSE instructions,
which will SEGV on an invalid 8-byte aligned memory operation.
This patch simply removes the CONFIG_VECTOR16 code and configuration
without further simplification.

Backports commit 52bf9771fdfce98e98cea36a17a18915be6f6b7f from qemu
The configure script breaks when the qemu source directory is in a path
containing white spaces, in particular the list of targets is not
correctly generated when calling "./configure --help" because of how the
default_target_list variable is built.
In addition to that, *building* qemu from a directory with spaces breaks
some assumptions in the Makefiles, even if the original source path does
not contain spaces like in the case of an out-of-tree build, or when
symlinks are involved.
To avoid these issues, refuse to run the configure script and the
Makefile if there are spaces or colons in the source path or the build
path, taking as inspiration what the kbuild system in linux does.

Backports commit 4ace32e22713ffd79deb221ae0134652c7c15428 from qemu
Unless overridden via an env var or configure arg, QEMU will only look
for the 'python' binary in $PATH. This is unhelpful on distros which
are only shipping Python 3.x (eg Fedora) in their default install as,
if they comply with PEP 394, the bare 'python' binary won't exist.
This changes configure so that by default it will search for all three
common python binaries, preferring to find Python 3.x versions.
Backports commit faf441429adfe5767be52c5dcdb8bc03161d064f from qemu
When running "make" in a build directory from the pre-Kconfig merge time,
the build process currently fails with:
make: *** No rule to make target `.../default-configs/pci.mak',
needed by `aarch64-softmmu/config-devices.mak'. Stop.
To make sure that this problem at least goes away when the user runs
"configure" (or "sh config.status") again, we have to make sure that
we re-generate the .mak.d files. Thus remove the old stale files
while running the configure script.
Backports commit 9c79024225af6b3ae04ea2dd94a5e5c4132a9e65 from qemu
Without the -Wno-typedef-redefinition option, clang complains if a typedef
gets redefined in gnu99 mode (since this is officially a C11 feature). This
used to also happen with older versions of GCC, but since we've bumped our
minimum GCC version to 4.8, all versions of GCC that we support do not seem
to issue this warning in gnu99 mode anymore. So this has become a common
problem for people who only test their code with GCC - they do not notice
the issue until they submit their patches and suddenly patchew or a
maintainer complains.
Now that we do not urgently need to keep the code clean from typedef
redefintions anymore with recent versions of GCC, we can ease the
situation with clang, too, and simply shut these warnings off for good.

Backports commit 7776ea6b49873ed18a2111e25ed8a6d94bd73db8 from qemu
This ports over the RISC-V architecture from Qemu. This is currently a
very barebones transition. No code hooking or any fancy stuff.
Currently, you can feed it instructions and query the CPU state itself.
This also allows choosing whether or not RISC-V 32-bit or RISC-V 64-bit
is desirable through Unicorn's interface as well.
Extremely basic examples of executing a single instruction have been
added to the samples directory to help demonstrate how to use the basic
functionality.
Different versions of GCC and Clang use different versions of the C standard.
This repeatedly caused problems already, e.g. with duplicated typedefs:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-11/msg05829.html
or with for-loop variable initializers:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2019-01/msg00237.html
To avoid these problems, we should enforce the C language version to the
same level for all compilers. Since our minimum compiler versions is
GCC v4.8, our best option is "gnu99" for C code right now ("gnu17" is not
available there yet, and "gnu11" is marked as "experimental"), and "gnu++98"
for the few C++ code that we have in the repository.

Some functionality is dependent on the Python version
detected/configured on configure. While it's possible to run the
Python version later and check for the version, doing it once is
preferable. Also, it's a relevant information to keep in build logs,

Backports commit 40f87e2680a3fda6117a08db9106a01345806a66 from qemu
So far we only had implicit requirements for the minimum compiler version,
e.g. we require at least GCC 4.1 for the support of atomics. However,
such old compiler versions are not tested anymore by the developers, so
they are not really supported anymore. Since we recently declared explicitly
what platforms we intend to support, we can also get more explicit on the
compiler version now. The supported distributions use the following version
of GCC:
RHEL-7: 4.8.5
Debian (Stretch): 6.3.0
Debian (Jessie): 4.8.4
OpenBSD (ports): 4.9.4
FreeBSD (ports): 8.2.0
OpenSUSE Leap 15: 7.3.1
Ubuntu (Xenial): 5.3.1
macOS (Homebrew): 8.2.0
So we can safely assume GCC 4.8 these days. For Clang, the situation is
a little bit more ambiguous, since it is sometimes not available in the
main distros but rather third party repositories. At least Debian Jessie
uses version 3.5, and EPEL7 for RHEL7 uses 3.4, so let's use 3.4 as
minimum Clang version now - we still can adjust this later if necessary.
Unfortunately Apple uses different version numbers for the Clang that is
included in their Xcode suite, so we need to check the version numbers
for Xcode separately. Xcode 5.1 seems to be the first one that has been
shipped with LLVM 3.4, so use this version as the minimum there.

Backports commit e6cd4bb59b8154fa00da611200beef7eb4e8ec56 from qemu
The config.status script is auto-generated by configure upon
completion. The intention is that config.status can be later invoked by
the developer directly, or by make indirectly, to re-detect the same
environment that configure originally used.
The current config.status script, however, only contains a record of the
command line arguments to configure. Various environment variables have
an effect on what configure will find. In particular PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR &
PKG_CONFIG_PATH vars will affect what libraries pkg-config finds. The
PATH var will affect what toolchain binaries and XXXX-config scripts are
found. The LD_LIBRARY_PATH var will affect what libraries are
found. Most commands have env variables that will override the name/path
of the default version configure finds.
All these key env variables should be recorded in the config.status script.
Autoconf would also preserve CFLAGS, LDFLAGS, LIBS, CPPFLAGS, but QEMU
deals with those differently, expecting extra flags to be set using
configure args, rather than env variables. At the end of the script we
also don't have the original values of those env vars, as we modify them
during configure.

configure tries to detect if the compiler

QEMU_BUILD_BUG_ON should use C11's _Static_assert, if the compiler supports it,
to provide more readable messages on failure.
We check for _Static_assert in configure, and set CONFIG_STATIC_ASSERT
accordingly. QEMU_BUILD_BUG_ON invokes _Static_assert if CONFIG_STATIC_ASSERT
is defined, and reverts to the old way otherwise.
That way, systems without C11 conforming compiler will still have the old
messages, as verified by intentionally breaking the configure check.

For a very long time we have used 'uname -s' as our fallback if
we don't identify the target OS using a compiler #define. This
obviously doesn't work for cross-compilation, and we've had
a comment suggesting we fix this in configure for a long time.
Since we now have an exhaustive list of which OSes we can run
on (thanks to commit 898be3e0415 making an unrecognized OS
be a fatal error), we know which ones we're missing.
Add check_define tests for the remaining OSes we support. The
defines checked are based on ones we already use in the codebase for
identifying the host OS (with the exception of GNU/kFreeBSD).
We can now set bogus_os immediately rather than doing it later.
We leave the comment about uname being bad untouched, since
there is still a use of it for the fallback for unrecognized
host CPU type.
Backports commit 951fedfceeda1b09ac8aa1f5263288b65e13caca from qemu
Currently if the user's compiler works for creating .o files but
their linker is broken such that compiling an executable from a
C file does not work, we will report a misleading error message
about the compiler not supporting __thread (since that happens
to be the first test we run which requires a working linker).
Explicitly check that compile_prog works as well as compile_object,
so that people whose toolchain setup is broken get a more helpful
error message.
Backports commit 0ef74c7496fd3c526b2259f86326eca4b3a03b78 from qemu
The change in commit 898be3e0415c6d which made completely
unrecognized OSes cause an error_exit "Unsupported host OS"
has some unfortunate unintended effects:
* if you run 'configure --help' on an unsupported host OS
(eg if intending to use it as a build machine for a
cross compile to a supported host) then the message
is printed instead of --help
* if the C compiler doesn't work or is missing (eg if
you passed an incorrect --cross-prefix by mistake)
the message is printed instead of the more useful
'compiler does not exist or does not work' message
Fix this by postponing the error_exit in this situation
until later, when we have already identified the more
useful cases for this.
The long term fix for this would be to move handling
of --help much further up in the configure script,
and make its output not dependent on checks that configure
runs. However for 2.9 this would be too invasive.
Backports commit fb59dabd4fa7e6586824ac3012073b943fc8dc79 from qemu
We plan to drop support in a future QEMU release for host OSes
and host architectures for which we have no test machine where
we can build and run tests. For the 2.9 release, make configure
print a warning if it is run on such a host, so that the user
has some warning of the plans and can volunteer to help us
maintain the port if they need it to continue to function.
This commit flags up as deprecated the CPU architectures:
* ia64
* sparc
* anything which we don't have a TCG port for
(and which was presumably using TCI)
and the OSes:
* GNU/kFreeBSD
* DragonFly BSD
* NetBSD
* OpenBSD
* Solaris
* AIX
* Haiku
It also makes entirely unrecognized host OS strings be
rejected rather than treated as if they were Linux (which
likely never worked).

Solaris 9 was released in 2002, its successor Solaris 10 was

Nobody has stepped forward to express interest in supporting

versions seems uncontroversial.
In particular, this allows us to remove a use of 'uname'

Clang 3.9 passes the CONFIG_AVX2_OPT configure test. However, the

when detecting whether the routine can be enabled.
Introduce a qemu-specific header that uses the compiler's definition
of __cpuid et al, but supplies any missing bit_* definitions needed.
This avoids introducing any extra ifdefs to util/bufferiszero.c, and
allows quite a few to be removed from tcg/i386/tcg-target.inc.c.

We can drop the check in configure for "ia64 or hppa host?"
entirely, because we don't support hppa hosts either any more.

We can also drop the now-unused AIX version of sys_cache_info().

to minimize the differences between the compilers:

This lets you build without TCG (hardware accelerationor qtest only). When
this flag is passed to configure, it will automatically filter out the target
list to only those that support KVM or Xen or HAX.
