I did it using mingw32. I don't remember what I did, but I probably tried
something stupid to test just the build of hostmem-file.o and didn't notice it
was conditional on CONFIG_LINUX. Sorry for the noise.

I have another question: if our block device code at raw-posix.c doesn't need
the Linux-specific BLKGETSIZE64 call, why exactly do we need it in
hostmem-file.c? In which cases it would break without BLKGETSIZE64?

If hostmem-file.c is Linux-specific we don't need to move or reuse the code for
all the other 9 platforms right now, that's true. But now you are adding a new
arch-specific function that does exactly the same thing in a different file to
the mix. What if somebody want to make hostmem-file.c work in another platform
in the future, and begin to duplicate the same #ifdef mess from raw-posix.c?
I was considering this:
1) Move the arch-independent raw_getlength() code to fd_getlength() (at
osdep.c, maybe?), as:
int64_t fd_getlength(int fd)
{
int64_t size;
size = lseek(s->fd, 0, SEEK_END);
if (size < 0) {
return -errno;
}
return size;
}
2) Change the arch-independent version of raw_getlength() to:
[...]
#else
static int64_t raw_getlength(BlockDriverState *bs)
{
BDRVRawState *s = bs->opaque;
int ret;
int64_t size;
ret = fd_open(bs);
if (ret < 0) {
return ret;
}
return fd_getlength(s->fd);
}
#endif
3) Implement get_file_size() using fd_getlength():
uint64_t get_file_size(const char *file, Error **errp)
{
struct stat stat_buf;
int64_t size = 0;
int fd;
fd = open(file, O_RDONLY);
if (fd < 0) {
error_setg_errno(errp, errno, "can't open file %s", file);
return 0;
}
size = fd_getlength(fd);
if (size < 0) {
error_setg_errno(errp, -size, "can't get size of file %s", file);
size = 0;
}
exit:
close(fd);
return size;
}
4) In case BLKGETSIZE64 is really necesary, add a Linux-specific block to
fd_getlength():
int64_t fd_getlength(int fd)
{
int64_t size;
#ifdef CONFIG_LINUX
struct stat stat_buf;
if (fstat(fd, &stat_buf) < 0) {
return -errno;
}
if ((S_ISBLK(stat_buf.st_mode)) && !ioctl(fd, BLKGETSIZE64, &size)) {
if (size < 0) {
return -EOVERFLOW;
}
return size;
}
#endif
size = lseek(fd, 0, SEEK_END);
if (size < 0) {
return -errno;
}
return size;
}
People working on other platforms will be able to move arch-specific code to
fd_getlength() later, if they want to.
