Hello,

I've been debugging the Clang/AArch64/non-ABI case during this week.

It indeed is a compiler issue. Here is a workaround, which fixes the
issue for at least clang 7 (did not try with earlier versions, probably
it would also help). At this moment I do not think we should apply this
fix, but rather declare this combination as not supported. Our code is
perfectly valid from my POV.

                burst     = ring_deq_multi(ring, mask, data, burst);

can you link to problem description? is it segfault here?

but it has to fail.
as I said /dev/shm under docker (which uses shippable) is limited to
64Mb by default.

we run: ODP_SHM_DIR=/dev/shm/odp make check

So it creates files (alloc shared memory) in that directory. Helpers
like cuckoohash use more then 64Mb memory to build hash table. It
allocates memory but on access there is seg. fault.

I think ODP_SHM_DIR=/var make check has to work here.

But it's not clear how it's related to this patch.

If you check, segfaults happen before creating MBs of data. It happens
early (and in plenty of tests actually) because of errors during buffer
allocation. I've traced today the issue to Clang's compiled
buffer_alloc_muli incorrectly shifting SP register if data[] array is
allocated inside if () branch. Somehow this happens only
in non-ABI-compat case.
