OTOH that's duplication of the ">= macOS 10.12" info, plus __builtin_available
is direct use of a clang-only extension, whereas API_AVAILABLE() works (or
more precisely: doesn't error out at least) with other compilers like GCC as
well. GCC is sometimes used for cross-compilation.
Moreover, I would also add an error message in this case, e.g.:
if (!pthread_fchdir_np) {
error_report_once("pthread_fchdir_np() is not available on this macOS
version");
return -ENOTSUPP;
}
I should elaborate why I think this is needed: you are already doing a Meson
check for the existence of pthread_fchdir_np(), but the system where QEMU is
compiled and the systems where the compiled binary will be running, might be
different ones (i.e. different macOS versions).
