This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '24'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 24 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 24 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-08-08. Fedora 24 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
Description of problem: Template functions with the always_inline attribute cannot be called from non-inline functions in a precompiled header without causing compilation of the precompiled header to fail. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Arch: x86_64 Version: GCC 6.2.1 Release: 2.fc24 How reproducible: Occurs every time. Steps to Reproduce: Compile the following code with g++ -x c++-header [filename]: template <typename T> __attribute__((always_inline)) inline void f() {} void g() {f<float>();} Actual results: $ g++ -x c++-header precompiled_header_bug.hh precompiled_header_bug.hh: In function ‘void g()’: precompiled_header_bug.hh:1:66: error: inlining failed in call to always_inline ‘void f() [with T = float]’: function body not available template <typename T> __attribute__((always_inline)) inline void f() {} ^ precompiled_header_bug.hh:2:21: note: called from here void g() {f<float>();} ^ Expected results: The compile should succeed. At least, if there is an error, it should not say "function body not available" and point to the function definition (as it has the function body right there). Additional info: The same code compiles successfully if compiled with -x c++ -c, and function f is inlined into g in this case. It would also compile successfully if function g was declared inline. Normally, you wouldn't expect non-inline functions in a precompiled header, as using the precompiled header on multiple translation unit would create multiple symbol definitions. I found code which was using __attribute__((noinline)) __attribute__((weak)) on a function in a precompiled however. That function called an always_inline function, which called a templated always_inline function. The error message for that case does not refer to the original noinline weak function which was required to produce the error.
