[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 17/38] libbpf: Handle GCC built-in types for Arm NEON

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Mon Aug 24 2020 - 12:40:32 EST


From: Jean-Philippe Brucker <jean-philippe@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 702eddc77a905782083b14ccd05b23840675fd18 ]

When building Arm NEON (SIMD) code from lib/raid6/neon.uc, GCC emits
DWARF information using a base type "__Poly8_t", which is internal to
GCC and not recognized by Clang. This causes build failures when
building with Clang a vmlinux.h generated from an arm64 kernel that was
built with GCC.

vmlinux.h:47284:9: error: unknown type name '__Poly8_t'
typedef __Poly8_t poly8x16_t[16];
^~~~~~~~~

The polyX_t types are defined as unsigned integers in the "Arm C
Language Extension" document (101028_Q220_00_en). Emit typedefs based on
standard integer types for the GCC internal types, similar to those
emitted by Clang.

Including linux/kernel.h to use ARRAY_SIZE() incidentally redefined
max(), causing a build bug due to different types, hence the seemingly
unrelated change.
