It seems the gcc preprocessor breaks unless pragmas are wrapped
individually inside macros when surrounding __attribute__.
Fixes errors like:
error: expected identifier or '(' before '#pragma'
106 | SEC("cgroup/bind6")
| ^~~
error: expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__' before '#pragma'
114 | char _license[] SEC("license") = "GPL";
| ^~~

Changes v2 -> v3:
- just fix SEC pragma
Changes v1 -> v2:
- replace typeof with __typeof__ instead of changing pragma macros

I'm not going to accept this unless I can repro it in the first place.
Using -std=c17 doesn't trigger such issue. Please provide the repro
first. Building systemd is not a repro, unfortunately. Please try to
do it based on libbpf-bootstrap ([0])

So this is a bug (hard to call this a feature) in gcc (not even
bpf-gcc, I could repro with a simple gcc). Is there a bug reported for
this somewhere? Are GCC folks aware and working on the fix?
What's curious is that the only thing that allows to bypass this is
adding #x in macro, having #define DO_PRAGMA(x) _Pragma(x) doesn't
help.
So ideally GCC can fix this? But either way your patch as is
erroneously passing extra quoted strings to _Pragma().
I'm pondering whether it's just cleaner to define SEC() without
pragmas for GCC? It will only cause compiler warning about unnecessary
unused attribute for extern *variable* declarations, which are very
rare. Instead of relying on this quirky "fix" approach. Ideally,
though, GCC just fixes _Pragma() handling, of course.

Yeah, saw a few issues that looked relevant:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55578

I recall the extra quotes were needed to make this work, does it work for you
without them?

I mean, as long as this workaround is reliable I'd say using it is the
best option
for backwards compatibility, especially since it's only needed in one place from
the looks of it.

Is it reliable, though? Adding those quotes breaks Clang (I checked)
and it doesn't work as expected with GCC as well. It stops complaining
about #pragma, but it also doesn't push -Wignored-attributes. Here's
the test:
#define DO_PRAGMA(x) _Pragma(#x)
#define SEC(name) \
DO_PRAGMA("GCC diagnostic push") \
DO_PRAGMA("GCC diagnostic ignored \"-Wignored-attributes\"") \
__attribute__((section(name), used)) \
DO_PRAGMA("GCC diagnostic pop") \
extern int something SEC("whatever");
int main()
{
return something;
}
Used like this you get same warning:
$ cc test.c
test.c:10:1: warning: ‘used’ attribute ignored [-Wattributes]
10 | extern int something SEC("whatever");
| ^~~~~~
Removing quotes fixes Clang (linker error is expected)
$ clang test.c
/opt/rh/gcc-toolset-11/root/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/11/../../../../bin/ld:
/tmp/test-4eec0b.o: in function `main':
test.c:(.text+0xe): undefined reference to `something'
But we get back to the original problem with GCC:
$ cc test.c
test.c:10:1: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’
before ‘#pragma’
10 | extern int something SEC("whatever");
| ^~~
test.c:10:1: error: expected identifier or ‘(’ before ‘#pragma’
test.c: In function ‘main’:
test.c:14:16: error: ‘something’ undeclared (first use in this function)
14 | return something;
| ^~~~~~~~~
So the best way forward I can propose for you is this:
#if __GNUC__ && !__clang__
#define SEC(name) __attribute__((section(name), used))
#else
#define SEC(name) \
_Pragma("GCC diagnostic push") \
_Pragma("GCC diagnostic ignored \"-Wignored-attributes\"") \
__attribute__((section(name), used)) \
_Pragma("GCC diagnostic pop") \
#endif
extern int something SEC("whatever");
int main()
{
return something;
}
With some comments explaining how broken GCC is w.r.t. _Pragma. And
just live with compiler warning about used if used with externs.
