Port: highway

Description

Reproduce steps:

  1. Install Xcode 16.0 beta 3 (16A5202i) from Apple;
  2. Install port clang-16, clang-17, clang-18;
  3. Run port build highway, and got Crash Report from clang.
  4. Change compiler, rebuild highway, crash again.

Workaround:

  1. Use port clang-15, or
  2. Disable dynamic dispatch (upstream PR) entirely or just for clang-16 and later before Apple (or LLVM) fixes the ICE.

From binaries, or build from source with the beta toolchain?

Build from source with the beta toolchain.

Notice that this issue can be reproduced on clang-17(amd64) from LLVM's Debian/Ubuntu Packages Repo, with preprocessed source and associated run script generated by crash reproducer.

There's a patch here: https://github.com/google/highway/issues/2317 that disables SVE compilation and fixes this. SVE isn't supported on ASi for now anyways.

Maybe we can take that patch before they have a new version?

I was hoping for at least a reviewed and CI-tested PR upstream so there would be a little more assurance that the change is correct, but there's been nothing so far. I guess we can try the patch on spec.

The PR linked from the ticket description was already merged and is in 1.2.0, BTW.
