If the compiler has neither error or diagnose_if support, an internal
API can be called without ALLOW_INTERNAL_API.
I prefer a build error complaining on an unknown attribute rather than
silence a check.
I.e.
#ifndef ALLOW_INTERNAL_API
#if __has_attribute(diagnose_if) /* For clang */
#define __rte_internal \
__attribute__((diagnose_if(1, "Symbol is not public ABI", "error"), \
section(".text.internal")))
#else
#define __rte_internal \
__attribute__((error("Symbol is not public ABI"), \
section(".text.internal")))
#endif
#else /* ALLOW_INTERNAL_API */
#define __rte_internal \
section(".text.internal")))
#endif
