Fix #156679
The issue stems from the __kmp_is_hwloc_membind_supported function in openmp/runtime/src/kmp_alloc.cpp. The function uses a type from the hwloc library (hwloc_membind_policy_t), but it was only guarded by #if KMP_USE_HWLOC. On macOS, KMP_AFFINITY_SUPPORTED is not defined, so the necessary header file (hwloc.h) isn't included, leading to an unknown type error.

The fix is to update the preprocessor guard to #if KMP_USE_HWLOC && KMP_AFFINITY_SUPPORTED, ensuring the function is only compiled when the hwloc type is available.

@bursow I believe there is more than one of those guards missing. I only mentioned one example in my issue.

Can you write those too, I'll check them. Thanks

I checked those other lines as well, but they do not use the hwloc_membind_policy_t type, so no further changes were needed. Thanks for the suggestion!

@bursow if the hwloc header isn't included, any hwloc symbol and any hwloc type won't work. Another example is __kmp_hwloc_topology which is hwloc_topology_t.

@nawrinsu @rorth FYI, please take another look. The main issue is that the preprocessor logic for including hwloc.h doesn't match the code that uses hwloc API and definitions from other headers that are only guarded with KMP_USE_HWLOC.

You're absolutely right, thanks for pointing that out. I was focused only on the specific build error, but I see now that the issue is broader. I'll update the other if KMP_USE_HWLOC blocks to also include the KMP_AFFINITY_SUPPORTED guard, which will fix any potential issues with other hwloc symbols like __kmp_hwloc_topology. Thanks for the detailed feedback.

I don't know another polite way to say this, but this exact exchange is what I would expect from an LLM, not from someone who contributes to LLVM itself...

Looks wrong. The #if above was already there, so adding an extra #endif will definitely break something.
