After a first attempt to fix the test-suite failures, my first recommit
caused the same failures again. I had updated CMakeList.txt files of
tests that needed -fcommon, but it turns out that there are also
Makefiles which are used by some bots, so I've updated these Makefiles
now too.
See the original commit message for more details on this change:
0a9fc9233e
This includes fixes for:
- test-suite: some benchmarks need to be compiled with -fcommon, see D75557.
- compiler-rt: one test needed -fcommon, and another a change, see D75520.
This reverts commit 0a9fc9233e.
Going to look at the asan failures.
I find the failures in the test suite weird, because they look
like compile time test and I don't understand how that can be
failing, but will have a brief look at that too.
This makes -fno-common the default for all targets because this has performance
and code-size benefits and is more language conforming for C code.
Additionally, GCC10 also defaults to -fno-common and so we get consistent
behaviour with GCC.
With this change, C code that uses tentative definitions as definitions of a
variable in multiple translation units will trigger multiple-definition linker
errors. Generally, this occurs when the use of the extern keyword is neglected
in the declaration of a variable in a header file. In some cases, no specific
translation unit provides a definition of the variable. The previous behavior
can be restored by specifying -fcommon.
As GCC has switched already, we benefit from applications already being ported
and existing documentation how to do this. For example:
- https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-10/porting_to.html
- https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Gcc_10_porting_notes/fno_common

The patch in r350643 incorrectly sets the COFF emission based on bits
instead of bytes. This patch converts the 32 via CharUnits to bits to
compare the correct values.

As reported in PR33035, LLVM crashes if given a common object with an
alignment of greater than 32 bits. This is because the COFF file format
does not support these alignments, so emitting them is broken anyway.
This patch changes any global definitions greater than 32 bit alignment
to no longer be in 'common'.
