I cannot answer that, hopefully someone in Cc: will. This sub-thread started
with Richard proposing an alternative solution for API level discovery [1]
(invoking onload twice, first with only the _v3 entrypoint in the "transfer
vector"), and then suggesting an onload_v2 variant that would allow to
discover which entrypoints the plugin is going to use [2].
[1] https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2022-May/594058.html
[2] https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2022-May/594059.html
... at which point I butted in, because the whole _v3 thing was shrouded in
mystery. Hopefully, now it makes more sense.
From my side I want to add that thread-safety remains a major unsolved point.
Compiler driver _always_ adds the plugin to linker command line, so I expect
that if you add a mutex around your claim_file hook invocation, you'll find
that it serializes the linker too much. Have you given some thought to that?
Will you be needing a plugin API upgrade to discover thread-safe entrypoints,
or do you have another solution in mind?
Alexander
