2024-01-09compilers: cpp: wire up stdlib assertionsSam James
None of the options set here affect ABI and are intended for detecting constraint violations. For GCC, we simply need to set -D_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS. For Clang, the situation is far more complicated: * LLVM 18 uses a 'hardened mode' (https://libcxx.llvm.org/Hardening.html). There are several levels of severity available here. I've chosen _LIBCPP_HARDENING_MODE_EXTENSIVE as the strongest-but-one. The strongest one (_DEBUG) doesn't affect ABI still but is reserved for stldebug. * LLVM 15 uses a similar approach to libstdc++ called '_LIBCPP_ENABLE_ASSERTIONS' Note that LLVM 17 while in development had fully deprecated _LIBCPP_ENABLE_ASSERTIONS in favour of hardened, but changed its mind last-minute: https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-hardening-in-libc/73925/4.
