For a call to `AC_COMPILER_IFELSE` to work correctly in that context, you need to temporarily change `CC` and `CFLAGS` to the correct compiler and flags setup. See the definition of `FLAGS_C_COMPILER_CHECK_ARGUMENTS` in flags.m4 to see how that is done. make/autoconf/flags-cflags.m4 line 981: > 979: if test "x$$2SVE_CFLAGS" != "x" && test "x$DEBUG_LEVEL" != > xrelease && test "x$TOOLCHAIN_TYPE" = xgcc ; then > 980: INIT_ZERO_FLAG="-ftrivial-auto-var-init=zero" > 981: FLAGS_COMPILER_CHECK_ARGUMENTS(ARGUMENT: [$INIT_ZERO_FLAG], When calling `FLAGS_COMPILER_CHECK_ARGUMENTS` you from this context, you need to include the `PREFIX` argument. See examples further up in this file. make/autoconf/flags-cflags.m4 line 996: > 994: AC_DEFUN([BPERF_SETUP_SVE], > 995: [ > 996: UTIL_ARG_ENABLE(NAME: aarch64-sve, DEFAULT: auto, The idea with this macro is that you put the supported check and actions on enabled/disabled in the call and let it handle the logic. It shouldn't be moved to a separate macro. Also, macros defined in this file should have the `FLAGS` prefix, not `BPERF`. ------------- PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/27073#discussion_r2325028873 PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/27073#discussion_r2325031564 PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/27073#discussion_r2325022758
