This option is only valid for C++ and ObjC++, but the kwarg is useful
for mixed language targets. Asking for inlines as well, when the
compiler driver is trying to build the C components of a target, results
in gcc emitting:
```
cc1: warning: command-line option ‘-fvisibility-inlines-hidden’ is valid for C++/ObjC++ but not for C
```
Squelch this warning by filtering it out on Meson's side of things.
[why]
Support for the relatively new mold linker is missing. If someone wants
to use mold as linker `LDFLAGS="-B/path/to/mold"` has to be added instead
of the usual `CC_LD=mold meson ...` or `CXX_LD=mold meson ...`.
[how]
Allow `mold' as linker for clang and newer GCC versions (that versions
that have support).
The error message can be a bit off, because it is generic for all GNU
like compilers, but I guess that is ok. (i.e. 'mold' is not listed as
possible linker, even if it would be possible for the given compiler.)
[note]
GCC Version 12.0.1 is not sufficient to say `mold` is supported. The
expected release with support will be 12.1.0.
On the other hand people that use the un-released 12.0.1 will probably
have built it from trunk. Allowing 12.0.1 is helping bleeding edge
developers to use mold in Meson already now.

The compiler flag only exists on Visual Studio 2015 or later, or clang-cl,
and using this always can interfere with compiler feature detection when
this flag is not supported.
So, remove '/utf-8' from always_args if we are on Visual Studio 2013 or
earlier.
This has been broken ever since the original implementation. Due to a
typo, the optimization flag used a zero instead of an uppercase "o",
which the compiler then breaks on during argument parsing because it is
an invalid argument.
Fixes#10267
When something goes wrong with running the compiler in
_symbols_have_underscore_prefix_searchbin, print stderr instead,
as it actually contains helpful output while stdout is usually empty
in this case.
Fixes the following ResourceWarnings:
ResourceWarning: subprocess 25556 is still running
_warn("subprocess %s is still running" % self.pid,
ResourceWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback
mesonbuild/compilers/mixins/gnu.py:195: ResourceWarning: unclosed file <_io.BufferedReader name=4>
return gnulike_default_include_dirs(tuple(self.exelist), self.language).copy()
ResourceWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback
It is always used as an immutable view so there is no point in doing
copies. However, mypy insist it must implement the same APIs as
Dict[OptionKey, UserOption[Any]] so keep faking it.
GCC with optimization set to 0 does not actually result in no
optimizations, which can be annoying when trying to use a debugger like
gdb, and finding that your variable has been optimized out. We already
do this with clang, so gcc is a bit of an outlier here.
Removed errant "type: ignore".
Fixed issue with "fetch" call. This issue was the following:
Dict::get() and Dict::pop() have the following signature:
T.Callable[[_T, _U], _U | None] OR T.Callable[[_T], _U | None]
Note how the return type is _U here. When the fetch() function was
actually being called, it had the following signature:
T.Callable[[_T, T.List[_U]], T.Union[T.List[_U], _U]]
This is incompatible with the previous definitions. The solution is
simply to move where the default value is introduced if fetch() produces
None.
If the LTO threads == 0 clang will default to the same argument we
manually pass, which meant we dropped support for admittedly ancient
versions of clang that didn't yet add that option.
Drop the extraneous argument, and add a specific error condition when
too old versions of clang are detected.
Fixes#9569
-Oz is the appropriate flag to use when you want to produce the smallest
possible binary, and is one would expect when setting optimization to s
or using the minsize build type.
* compilers: improve docstring to `get_compiler_check_args()`
There was an incomplete list, which wasn't useful as it now takes an
enum anyway. Also add a new entry to the list of reasons to use this
function.
* clang: Add -Werror=implicit-function-declarations to check_args
Unlike GCC, clang warns but doesn't error when an implicit function
declaration happens. This means in checks like
`compiler.has_header_symbol('string.h', 'strlcat')` (on Linux, at least)
that GCC will fail, as there is no such function; clang will emit a
warning, but since it exists with a 0 status Meson interprets that as
success. To fix this, add `-Werror=implicit-function-declarations` to
clang's check arguments.
There seems to be something specific about functions that _may_ exist in
a header on a given system, as `cc.has_header_symbol('string.h',
'foobar')` will return false with clang, but `strlcat` will return true,
even though it's not defined. It is however, defined in some OSes, like
Solaris and the BSDs.
Fixes#9140
We have a lot of these. Some of them are harmless, if unidiomatic, such
as `if (condition)`, others are potentially dangerous `assert(...)`, as
`assert(condtion)` works as expected, but `assert(condition, message)`
will result in an assertion that never triggers, as what you're actually
asserting is `bool(tuple[2])`, which will always be true.
