Summary: The function `llvm::sys::commandLineFitsWithinSystemLimits` appears to be overestimating the system limits. This issue was discovered while attempting to enable response files in the Swift compiler. When the compiler submits its frontend jobs, those jobs are subjected to the system limits on command line length. `commandLineFitsWithinSystemLimits` is used to determine if the job's arguments need to be wrapped in a response file. There are some cases where the argument size for the job passes `commandLineFitsWithinSystemLimits`, but actually exceeds the real system limit, and the job fails. `clang` also uses this function to decide whether or not to wrap it's job arguments in response files. See: https://github.com/llvm-mirror/clang/blob/master/lib/Driver/Driver.cpp#L1341. Clang will also fail for response files who's size falls within a certain range. I wrote a script that should find a failure point for `clang++`. All that is needed to run it is Python 2.7, and a simple "hello world" program for `test.cc`. It should run on Linux and on macOS. The script is available here: https://gist.github.com/dabelknap/71bd083cd06b91c5b3cef6a7f4d3d427. When it hits a failure point, you should see a `clang: error: unable to execute command: posix_spawn failed: Argument list too long`. The proposed solution is to mirror the behavior of `xargs` in `commandLinefitsWithinSystemLimits`. `xargs` defaults to 128k for the command line length size (See: https://fossies.org/dox/findutils-4.6.0/buildcmd_8c_source.html#l00551). It adjusts this depending on the value of `ARG_MAX`. Reviewers: alexfh Reviewed By: alexfh Subscribers: llvm-commits Tags: #clang Patch by Austin Belknap!

llvm/lib/Support/Unix README =========================== This directory provides implementations of the lib/System classes that are common to two or more variants of UNIX. For example, the directory structure underneath this directory could look like this: Unix - only code that is truly generic to all UNIX platforms Posix - code that is specific to Posix variants of UNIX SUS - code that is specific to the Single Unix Specification SysV - code that is specific to System V variants of UNIX As a rule, only those directories actually needing to be created should be created. Also, further subdirectories could be created to reflect versions of the various standards. For example, under SUS there could be v1, v2, and v3 subdirectories to reflect the three major versions of SUS.
