We have been talking for a long time of a debug mode with less impact on performances.

We already have it, that's what _GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS already is :-)

I propose to simply use the existing _GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS macro.

    libstdc++: [_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS] Activate basic debug checks

    Use _GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS as a _GLIBCXX_DEBUG light mode. When defined it activates     all _GLIBCXX_DEBUG checks but skipping those requiring to loop through the iterator
    range unless in case of constexpr.

    libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog:

            * include/debug/debug.h [_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS]: Define debug macros non-empty.             * include/debug/helper_functions.h: Cleanup comment about removed _Iter_base.             * include/debug/functions.h (__skip_debug_runtime_check): New, returns false if
            _GLIBCXX_DEBUG is defined or if constant evaluated.
            (__check_sorted, __check_partitioned_lower, __check_partitioned_upper): Use latter.

Tested under Linux x64.

Ok to commit ?

François

Should this be simply _GLIBCXX_CONSTEXPR so that it can be constexpr
in C++14 mode too? Or are there are never any debug checks in
functions that are already constexpr in C++14 or C++17?

I think this would be simpler without the nesting, and without the
preprocessor checks halfway through the return statement:

#ifdef _GLIBCXX_DEBUG
    return false;
#elif _GLIBCXX_HAVE_BUILTIN_IS_CONSTANT_EVALUATED
    return !__builtin_is_constant_evaluated();
#else
    return true;
#endif

Currently this function is never called at all ifndef _GLIBCXX_DEBUG.
With this change, it's going to be present for _GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS,
and if it isn't inlined it's going to explode the code size.

Some linux distros are already building the entire distro with
_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS so I think we need to be quite careful about this
kind of large change affecting every algo.

So maybe we shouldn't enable these checks via _GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS, but
a new macro.

_GLIBCXX_DEBUG is already rarely used, so will be yet another mode.

So let's forget about all this, thanks.

François
