[libc][cmake] reset COMPILE_DEFINITIONS
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
While trying to enable -Werror (llvm#74506), the 32b ARM build bot reported an
error stemming from -Wshorten-64-to-32 related to usages of `off_t`.

I failed to fix these properly in llvm#77350 (the 32b ARM build is not a fullbuild)
and llvm#77396.

It turns out, the preprocessor defines `-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE` and
`-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64` were being set for llvmlibc when using the cmake build
system. In particular, these preprocessor defines are feature test macros used
by glibc, and which have effects no the corresponding ABI for types like
`off_t` (for instance, should `off_t` be 32b or 64b on 32b targets).

But who was setting these?  Turns out that the use of add_compile_definitions
in llvm/cmake/modules/HandleLLVMOptions.cmake was setting these (and more),
which is then inherited by every subdirectory.  While some of these defines
maybe make sense for host builds, they do not make sense for libraries for the
target. The full list of defines being set prior to this commit:

- `-D_GNU_SOURCE`
- `-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64`
- `-D_DEBUG`
- `-D_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS`
- `-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE`
- `-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64`
- `-D__STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS`
- `-D__STDC_FORMAT_MACROS`
- `-D__STDC_LIMIT_MACROS`

If we desire any of the above, we should manually reset them.

Fix this by resetting COMPILE_DEFINITIONS for the libc/ subdirectory.

Side note: to debug 'directory properties' in cmake, you first need to use
`get_directory_property` to fetch the corresponding value into a variable
first, then that variable can be printed via `message`.
