This is wrong (tm).
a- TARGET_I386 on Makefiles is only defined for 32bits, not for 64bits
   (don't blame me, I just did a direct conversion of what was there).
b- TARGET_* is only defined in {i386,x86_64,...}-{softmmu,linux-user,...}
   i.e. not a chance to be read at hw/Makefile.

</me does patch>

More complex that I thought:
- if you only want to compile it once, you need to compile it on
  Makefile, not Makefile.hw: no cookie, loader.h uses target_phys_addr.
- ok, move it to Makefile.hw -> your option didn't work (it compiles)
  because you allways compile loader-dummy.o, TARGET_I386 is not defined
  in Makefile.hw (it is hardware independent drivers after all :)
- More imagination: Use only loader-i386.c, and #ifdef TARGET_I386
  to an empty macro/real thing -> no cookie either, TARGET_I386 is
  poisoned in Makefile.hw (*)
- define CONFIG_LOADER_I386 for I386 and X86_64.

And here is the patch.  I tested that it compiles for several
combinations of x86_64 and not x86_64, and that it works as expected.


<alternative>
This makes the file be compiled only once.
If you can live with file being compiled twice, it is easier to:

add to Makefile.target
obj-i386-y += loader-i386.o

s/CONFIG_LOADER_I386/TARGET_I386/ in loader.h (on my patch)

And then you don't have to define CONFIG_LOADER_I386.
You don't need to include "config-all-devices.h" if you decided this
option. (*)

It makes things easier to understand, I think.

<alternative/>

I preffer very much to add the "dummy" cases in one ifdef in a header
file.

Later, Juan.

(*): This is cool. Haven't noticed that feature yet.
(**): Yes, config-all-devices.h needs a better way to be included. I
      didn't noticed it because by definition nothing old depended on symbols
      defined there.  All symbols that are there were introduced to
      compile some devices that were compiled unconditionally before.
      More thought here is needed.

Oh.  Joy of inconsistency ...

Exactly.  Due to target_phys_addr it must go to Makefile.hw, so I get it 
compiled once for 32bit targphys and once for 64bit targphys.

Oops.

Thats why I don't want #ifdef.

No.  This avoids the TARGET_I386 poisoned error, but does *not* fix the 
underlying problem.

No.  Any user of rom_add_option() must be compiled per target then.

Guess easierst way is the v1 patch then:  Have target-specific code in 
loader-target.c and use #ifdefs there ...

cheers,
