From e25264fe7b0455b45a6eb519d8e9ba2a708228fb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Huth Date: Thu, 15 Aug 2024 14:27:19 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] meson.build: Check for the availability of __attribute__((gcc_struct)) on MSYS2 Since quite a while MSYS2 now supports Clang as a compiler, too. Unfortunately, this compiler is lacking the __attribute__((gcc_struct)) that we need for compiling on Windows. But since the compiler is available now, some people started to use it to compile QEMU on MSYS2, apparently ignoring the compiler warnings (see for example the ticket at https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/2476 ). These builds are likely broken in a couple of spots, so let's make sure that we rather bail out early in the configuration phase instead of allowing the build to succeed with warnings.
