[libvirt-users] Fail to build upstream libvirt on rhel8

[Han Han]

Hello,
A compilation failure happened when I tried building libvirt latest code on
rhel8

Version:
gcc-8.3.1-4.5.el8.x86_64
libvirt v5.9.0-352-g5e939cea89

Steps:
1. Clone libvirt source code
2. Create build dir, and run autogen.sh
# cd libvirt
# mkdir build && cd build
# ../autogen.sh --build=x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu
--host=x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu --program-prefix=
--disable-dependency-tracking --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/usr
--bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --sysconfdir=/etc
--datadir=/usr/share --includedir=/usr/include --libdir=/usr/lib64
--libexecdir=/usr/libexec --localstatedir=/var --sharedstatedir=/var/lib
--mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --with-runstatedir=/run
--with-qemu --without-openvz --without-lxc --without-vbox --without-libxl
--with-sasl --with-polkit --with-libvirtd --without-phyp --with-esx
--without-hyperv --without-vmware --without-vz --without-bhyve
--with-remote-default-mode=legacy --with-interface --with-network
--with-storage-fs --with-storage-lvm --with-storage-iscsi
--with-storage-iscsi-direct --with-storage-scsi --with-storage-disk
--with-storage-mpath --with-storage-rbd --without-storage-sheepdog
--with-storage-gluster --without-storage-zfs --without-storage-vstorage
--with-numactl --with-numad --with-capng --without-fuse --with-netcf
--with-selinux --with-selinux-mount=/sys/fs/selinux --without-apparmor
--without-hal --with-udev --with-yajl --with-sanlock --with-libpcap
--with-macvtap --with-audit --with-dtrace --with-driver-modules
--with-firewalld --with-firewalld-zone --without-wireshark-dissector
--without-pm-utils --with-nss-plugin --with-qemu-user=qemu
--with-qemu-group=qemu --with-tls-priority=@LIBVIRT,SYSTEM --enable-werror
--enable-expensive-tests --with-init-script=systemd --without-login-shell
# make

Then error appears:
make[2]: Entering directory '/root/libvirt/build/include/libvirt'
make[2]: Nothing to be done for 'all'.
make[2]: Leaving directory '/root/libvirt/build/include/libvirt'
Making all in src
