Hello

You are using libffi from brew. I'm trying to use the system's one. On x86_64 
you have a choice, but on arm64 there is no choice atm.

I believe its wrong when configure script can't find default system's library 
located at default location for this type of OS.

Thanks, Vladimir.

Hi Vladimir and Magnus,

How about configuring with --with-libffi=... like this:
        --with-libffi=/usr/local/Cellar/libffi/3.2.1/lib/libffi-3.2.1     
--disable-warnings-as-errors

I can compile zero vm on our macos platforms with that configuration.

Thanks.
Best regards,
Jie

    Hello

    I agree modding  hpp files is a bad idea

    Thanks for idea with setting LIBFFI_CFLAGS

    here is updated webrev: 
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~vkempik/8248495/webrev.01/

    AC_CHECK_HEADERS ignored CFLAGS for some reason, so modding header_name for 
it was still needed.
    This special case only applies to macos/clang when sysroot is set and no 
libffi configure options is used. (which is default case)

    Thanks, Vladimir

Vladimir,

This looks like it can break in other situation than your specific case.

It sounds like you should set LIBFFI_CFLAGS= to  -I<path to your ffi 
installation>, such that "<path to your ffi installation>/ffi.h" exists. In 
particular, the change of include path in globalDefinitions_zero.hpp looks bad.

Hello

Please review this fix for zero vm building on macos.

The issue comes from the libffi, it’s headers are located inside 
usr/include/ffi/ folder in Macos.sdk, so it can’t be found by configure script.

If one wants to use system’s libffi and pass path to libffi via configure 
argument as --with-libffi-include=/usr/include/ffi, then it won’t be found by 
configure because clang will look exactly in /usr/include/ffi, but not in 
macos.sdk
The system, at least on 10.15 doesn’t have /usr/includes at all.

This patch makes jdk to look for ffi/ffi.h header in case of Macos/clang and no 
--with-libffi-include argument.

However there is one issue with this patch, if --with-libffi-include passed 
then c++ code will still try to include <ffi/ffi.h>

I’m not sure which way is the best for such rare case. it could be possible to 
define include filename in configure and pass it via -D and CFLAGS to c++ code.
