Subject: [PATCH v2 next] compiler.h: Move __is_constexpr() to compiler.h.
Date: Thu, 5 Oct 2023 11:39:54 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2a6680bbe2e84459816a113730426782@AcuMS.aculab.com> (raw)

Prior to f747e6667ebb2 __is_constexpr() was in its only user minmax.h.
That commit moved it to const.h - but that file just defines ULL(x) and
  UL(x) so that constants can be defined for .S and .c files.
So apart from the word 'const' it wasn't really a good location.
Instead move the definition to compiler.h just before the similar
  is_signed_type() and is_unsigned_type().
This may not be a good long-term home, but the three definitions
  belong together.

This makes it possible to use __is_constexpr() inside is_signed_type()
so that the result is constant integer expression for pointer types.
In particular (void *)1 isn't constant enough.

v2: Add a copy into tools/linux/compiler.h to fix perf build.
