Forcing inlining in test_ring_enqueue and test_ring_dequeue can cause
the compiled code to grow extensively when compiled with no optimization
(-O0 or -Og). This is default in the meson's debug configuration. This
can collide with compiler bugs and cause issues during linking of unit
tests where the api_type or esize are non-const variables causing
inlining cascade. In perf tests this is not the case in perf-tests as
esize and api_type are const values.
One such case was discovered when porting DPDK to RISC-V. GCC 11.2 (and
no fix still in 12.1) is generating a short relative jump instruction
(J <offset>) for goto and for loops. When loop body grows extensively in
ring test, the target offset goes beyond supported offfset of +/- 1MB
from PC. This is an obvious bug in the GCC as RISC-V has a
two-instruction construct to jump to any absolute address (AUIPC+JALR).
However there is no reason to force inlining as the test code works
perfectly fine without it.
GCC has a bug report for a similar case (with conditionals):
