[LLVMdev] providing llvm gcc built-in function implementation...

[michael]

Let me explain briefly my issue:

While working on my project ( OSX, llvh gcc 4.2),  I run into the
compilation error:
 "
 ..
 Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
    ___sync_bool_compare_and_swap_16", referenced from:
...
"

I decided that the function is declared, but not implemented for uint128_t.
So, I implemented the function, and  the code is working correctly.

But the only way I manage  to make the linker to find the function, and to
build the code is to declare  my function as:
"
extern "C" bool __sync_bool_compare_and_swap_16(volatile __uint128_t *
destination, __uint128_t comperand, __uint128_t exchange)
{...}
"

Though the code is linked and is working properly, the warnings are
generated:
"
 .../src/sync.cpp:205: warning: new declaration 'bool
__sync_bool_compare_and_swap_16(volatile __uint128_t*, __uint128_t,
__uint128_t)'
 ...l/src/sync.cpp:205: warning: ambiguates built-in declaration 'bool
__sync_bool_compare_and_swap_16(volatile void*, <unnamed-unsigned:128>,
<unnamed-unsigned:128>)'
"

I question is - what it the right way to add the implementation for builtin
function in llvm-gcc ?
Thanks,
Michael.
