Our ICC use is still completely hosed when it comes to PGO.

When specifying MOZ_PROFILE_GENERATE=1, we pass -fprofile-generate, which is gcc-speak. ICC wants -prof-gen.

Also, configure fails with icc:

checking for a sizeof (void *)-byte type... int
checking for the size of void*... 4
checking for the alignment of void*... configure: error: No alignment found for void*

I really would like to see a concrete log of a successful ICC build with PGO before this bug is closed.
We have a test for ICC:
http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/configure.in#445

but maybe they broke it in a newer version?
I have never been able to build properly with any version of ICC and our makefile. I used to use a hacked version of Makefile.ref.
I used ICC 10.something to build Spidermonkey successfully, but that was somewhere before Firefox 3.0 shipped, IIRC. If you run that command that configure is running, `icc -help`, what output does it print?

                          ==========================



  usage: icc [options] file1 [file2 ...]
         icpc [options] file1 [file2 ...]

     where options represents zero or more compiler options

     fileN is a C/C++ source (.C .c .cc .cpp .cxx .c++ .i .ii), 
     assembly (.s .S), object (.o), static library (.a), or other 
     linkable file

     The icpc command uses the same compiler options as the icc
     command.  Invoking the compiler using icpc compiles .c and .i files
     as C++.  Invoking the compiler using icc compiles .c and .i files as
     C.  Using icpc always links in C++ libraries.  Using icc only
     links in C++ libraries if C++ source is provided on the command line.

     Commonly used options may be placed in the icc .cfg file.



   Some options listed are only available on a specific system
   i32    indicates the feature is available on systems based on IA-32
          architecture
   i64em  indicates the feature is available on systems using Intel(R) 64
          architecture

Ok, that looks reasonable, I'll have to dig a bit more to see what's going wrong here.
Thanks a lot for looking into this.
Ok, figured out the first bit of this, anyway. We're testing the output of icc for "Intel(R) C Compiler" and it's now producing "Intel(R) C++ Compiler". Silly.
Assignee: nobody → ted.mielczarek
This is probably not sufficient, but this is step 1, which will fix configure so it detects icc properly and sets INTEL_CC.
