调研方向

从 configure.ac 的 1491–1514 行附近开始,并在 macOS 上使用 CC='/opt/local/bin/gcc-mp-12' pyenv install --verbose 3.10.6 重现问题。将编译器识别结果与那里选择的 Darwin PGO flags 进行比较。完成的标准是实际的 GCC 使用 -fprofile-generate,而 Apple Clang 继续使用现有 flags,且不破坏 configure 路径。

Bug report

Apologies if this is a known "wontfix" issue, I didn't see it mentioned in a search of past issues.

The configure.ac script assumes that gcc is actually clang on MacOS and uses Clang's -fprofile-instr-generate flag for PGO instead of GCC's -fprofile-generate, leading to build failure when PGO is turned on.

Steps to reproduce on MacOS:

sudo port install gcc
# or `brew install gcc`, same result

CC='/opt/local/bin/gcc-mp-12' pyenv install --verbose 3.10.6

Outcome:

...
gcc-mp-12: error: unrecognized command-line option '-fprofile-instr-generate'; did you mean '-fprofile-generate'?
...

The problem is found here: https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/3.10/configure.ac#L1491-L1514

case $CC in
  *clang*)
    # Any changes made here should be reflected in the GCC+Darwin case below
    ...
    ;;
  *gcc*)
    case $ac_sys_system in
      Darwin*)
        PGO_PROF_GEN_FLAG="-fprofile-instr-generate"
        PGO_PROF_USE_FLAG="-fprofile-instr-use=code.profclangd"

MacOS (perhaps annoyingly) ships with gcc as an alias for clang, so the configure script sensibly assumes that gcc is actually clang and sets its options accordingly.

However, that isn't always a correct assumption!

Possible solutions:

  1. Check for the presence of Apple clang in the $CC --version output.
  2. Check that the absolute path of $CC is /usr/bin/gcc.
