You've either added -no-rtti or are using llvm built without rtti. I can make this a hard error.

Out of curiosity, how does the autotools build deal with this?

Also, I think that this only comes up in one assert in nouveau, so when asserts are disabled (e.g. release builds), it wouldn't bring up a compile error.

It would also be fine to add a #ifdef rtti + #warning or something (does one know in the source if rtti is enabled somehow?).
Comment 3 Dylan Baker 2019-01-02 20:08:19 UTC
I don't think that the compiler gives you any way to know, we'd have to pass some a #define ourselves.

autotools just adds it to LLVM targets (radeonsi, llvmpipe, etc). That feels really dangerous to me though, as building with/without rtti changes the ABI and my understanding is that there's no requirement for code with rtti to correctly link with code not using rtti.
Comment 4 Eric Engestrom 2019-05-02 11:35:59 UTC
Marking as FIXED since Dylan made it a meson error to do this:

    meson: Error out if building nouveau and using LLVM without rtti
    
    Nouveau requires rtti. Often LLVM is configured without rtti, and code
    with and without cannot be linked safely. Lets just error out if nouveau
    is requested and llvm is built without rtti.
