If I choose not to enable native-compile, why does configure complain so much?

If I choose not to enable native-compile, why does configure complain so much?

Hi,

When I compile Emacs for macOS, I disable native-compilation for good:

./configure PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig \
            LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include" \
            CC=clang OBJC=clang CFLAGS="-g -O3"
            --with-ns --with-modules --with-jansson \
            --with-native-compilation=no

I know what I’m doing and I don’t know why I get all these messages:

checking for gcc_jit_context_acquire in -lgccjit... no
configure: WARNING: Elisp native compiler can't be enabled as libgccjit was not
found.
Please try installing libgccjit or a similar package if you want to have it
enabled.
checking for libgccjit.h... no
configure: WARNING: Elisp native compiler can't be enabled as libgccjit header files
were not found.
Please try installing libgccjit-dev or a similar package if you want to have it
enabled.

I really DO NOT want notice compilation here…and I know that I’m doing.

Just a bit bored by unwanted messages…

Hello Pedro,

no need to be frustrated, this is just a bug :)

Could you please report it as a bug so we can track it [1]? (emacs-devel
is not used for bugs)

Thanks

Are we sure there's a bug?  My reading of configure.ac is that the
libgccjit test is only done if the value of with_native-compilation is
"default", but not if it is "no".  So I suspect some cockpit error;
perhaps the command was typed incorrectly?

bug#69912: configure tries to find libgccjit when --with-native-compilation=no

[Pedro Andres Aranda Gutierrez]

When I compile Emacs for macOS, I disable native-compilation for good:

./configure PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig \
            LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include” \

            --with-ns --with-modules --with-jansson \
            --with-native-compilation=no


I keep getting all these messages about GCCJIT:

checking for gcc_jit_context_acquire in -lgccjit… no
configure: WARNING: Elisp native compiler can't be enabled as libgccjit was not
found.
Please try installing libgccjit or a similar package if you want to have it

I really DO NOT want notice compilation here…and I know that I’m doing.

Mmmhh, I might be doing something wrong but I can't reproduce it with
master on my GNU/Linux system.  Which version of Emacs are you
compiling?

MacOS 14.4 here, using Homebrew and Emacs master.
I can't reproduce this.

However, if I don't say anything in the configuration, for example, about
treesitter, it will just say that the library is not there and not make
such a fuzz about it not being there ;-)

Is that backslash that is missing there after -O3 indeed missing?  If
so, please try with the missing backslash.

If that doesn't help, please post your config.log here, so we could
examine it and try to understand why the configure script is testing
libgccjit even though you said --with-native-compilation=no.  I have
the current master built on 2 different systems without
native-compilation, and I don't see these tests at configure time on
those systems.  (Are you seeing this with the master branch or some
other branch, btw?)
