It seems the gcc preprocessor breaks with pragmas when surrounding __attribute__. Disable these pragmas on GCC due to upstream bugs see: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55578 https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=90400 Fixes errors like: error: expected identifier or '(' before '#pragma' 106 | SEC("cgroup/bind6") | ^~~ error: expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__' before '#pragma' 114 | char _license[] SEC("license") = "GPL"; | ^~~ Signed-off-by: James Hilliard <james.hilliard1@xxxxxxxxx> --- Changes v3 -> v4: - disable SEC pragmas entirely on GCC Changes v2 -> v3: - just fix SEC pragma Changes v1 -> v2: - replace typeof with __typeof__ instead of changing pragma macros --- tools/lib/bpf/bpf_helpers.h | 13 +++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+) diff --git a/tools/lib/bpf/bpf_helpers.h b/tools/lib/bpf/bpf_helpers.h index fb04eaf367f1..7349b16b8e2f 100644 --- a/tools/lib/bpf/bpf_helpers.h +++ b/tools/lib/bpf/bpf_helpers.h @@ -22,12 +22,25 @@ * To allow use of SEC() with externs (e.g., for extern .maps declarations), * make sure __attribute__((unused)) doesn't trigger compilation warning. */ +#if __GNUC__ && !__clang__ + +/* + * Pragma macros are broken on GCC + * https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55578 + * https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=90400 + */ +#define SEC(name) __attribute__((section(name), used)) + +#else + #define SEC(name) \ _Pragma("GCC diagnostic push") \ _Pragma("GCC diagnostic ignored \"-Wignored-attributes\"") \ __attribute__((section(name), used)) \ _Pragma("GCC diagnostic pop") \ +#endif + /* Avoid 'linux/stddef.h' definition of '__always_inline'. */ #undef __always_inline #define __always_inline inline __attribute__((always_inline)) -- 2.34.1
