Sadly not defined for MacOSX13.1.sdk, and it's an enum so you can't #ifdef it
either.
You'll need a meson probe for it.
I'm not very familiar with HVF or meson - I am not sure I understand
what you're suggesting here (and a few attempts to grep around for an
example didn't turn up anything that looked helpful). Are you suggesting
some sort of build-time auto-detection, a "dumb" configuration switch
that a user could use to manually enable this, or something else? And/or
is there an example you could point me to of what you're thinking?
So the first thing here is: where is HV_SYS_REG_ID_AA64ISAR2_EL1
defined in the first place?
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/hypervisor/hv_sys_reg_t
does not list it.
If this is really the right name for the value, then:
We do our build-time detection of stuff that might or might
not be present using meson's facilities or that kind of
thing. These are all in meson.build. In this case I think
that what you want to use is has_header_symbol(), which
checks for presence of some symbol in a given header. There's
examples in meson.build, you want something like
config_host_data.set('HAVE_HV_SYS_REG_ID_AA64ISAR2_EL1',
cc.has_header_symbol('whatever.h',
'HV_SYS_REG_ID_AA64ISAR2_EL1'))
which tells meson "if this header has this symbol then define
this preprocessor value HAVE_...". Then you can #ifdef on that.
(We're inconsistent about whether we use CONFIG_FOO or HAVE_FOO
for this sort of test.)
Or alternatively, since this is macos specific and Apple are
quite careful about API versioning, it may be simpler to use
macos's own version macros to ifdef things so we only try to
use the enum value when building for a macos version that knows
about it. Grepping for 'MAC_OS_VERSION' brings up examples of
that approach.
