Provide LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE in a way that works with all locale functions.
Merge constant data used by the initial global locale and the C locale.
Drop function call layer for _current_locale() and directly return the
locale reference, not a pointer to it. Use protected access for global
variables, so that libc references can avoid the GOT overhead.
called. Use this to implement newlocale and provide duplocale/freelocale
as well. Based on patches by Takehiko Nozaki with simplications and fix
for the init order by myself.
2. unfortunately hppa's MB_LEN_MAX is defined incorrectly 6 instead of 32
so we have to add more setlocale(3) __RENAME func, __setlocale50.
3. move setlocale1.c and setlocale32.c to lib/libc/compat/locale/*
prepareing for next libc major crunk.
4. bump libc minor version.
ok'ed by core and releng.
(thanks for agc@, snj@ and i'm sorry for long time patience).
[libc]
- localeio.[ch] and lc*.[ch] in src/lib/libc/locale was replaced by
new locale-db implementation using citrus_db backend,
see src/lib/libc/citrus/citrus_lc_*.[ch].
- add citrus_bcs_strtou?l.c. don't use strtou?l locale implementation
internally, because they're locale-aware function.
- add some stubs for multi-locale issue, see {current,global}_locale.c.
- remove some obsolete file, setrunelocale.c, ___runetype_mb.c.
- remove __savectype() from ctypeio.[ch].
[tools]
- mklocale(1): add new option ``-t'' that generates new style
LC_{MONETARY,NUMERIC,TIME,MESSAGES} locale-db format.
- chrtbl(1): added ctypeio.[ch] for __savectype().
[locale-db]
- added en_US.US-ASCII locale.
- removed some shareable locale definition file:
en_US.US-ASCII -> en_US.ISO8859-1, en_US.UTF-8
zh_CN.eucCN -> zh_CN.GB18030
and more...see src/share/locale/*/Makefile.
- remove obsoleted locale sr_YU, added new locale sr_ME, sr_RS.
- change locale name ja_JP.ISO2022-JP* -> ja_JP.ISO-2022-JP*
for X11's locale.alias file alignments.
- fix regression test, wrong wcs?width(3), NAN/INF usage.
i tested release-build following arch:
i386, amd64, hpc{mips,arm,sh}, sparc64, vax.
citrus_lc_*.[ch] also can read old-plain-text style locale-db.
so that backward compatibility is keeped, but lc*.[ch] can't read
new citrus_db'ed locale-db and localeio.c never check sanity,
so forward compatibility is broken ;-<
old mklocale(1) doesn't know -t option, so you have to rebuild toolchain.
shot-term TODO:
- enable multibyte locales. this includes loadable locale modules
(#ifdef DLRUNE).
- populate LC_CTYPE definition files.
- other functions such as iconv()
- make libc functions more friendly with multibyte.
- multilingualize other LC_xx
- torture tests
XXX don't forget to "make depend" when you rebuild libc, multibyte.c is
moved from lib/libc/stdlib to lib/libc/locale.
- MB_LEN_MAX is increased to 32.
- To ensure binary compatibility for old executables
under multibyte locale, versioned setlocale is added.
- __mb_len_cur definision is added in setlocale.c
and enable it in stdlib.h .
It is also important for multibyte locale stuffs,
but I just forgot.
as __null with egcs 1.0 (GCC 2.90) and above. As several headers are affected
by this change, move the definition into a new header file, <null.h>, to ease
maintenance.
