replaced mostly with .IMPSRC, so add .c wrappers for variant .o names
* any machine with a shared crt0.c that also uses common_elf (I didn't see
any) will now need a reachover wrapper in .CURDIR a la crtbeginS.c
this should fix the build breakage
and .fini sections, respectively (same as the {init,fini}_fallthru
stubs).
This is needed on PowerPC, where otherwise the linker would be unhappy
with the relocation records for the fallthru stubs when building a
shared library.
things like the .note.netbsd.ident section are provided by crti/crtn.
crti/crtn also provide the _init() and _fini() routines.
crtbegin/crtend now only provide support for ctors/dtors. This paves
the way to using the "crtstuff" provided with GCC (when we upgrade to
GCC 3.3), which provides, among other things, much better C++/Java
exception handling.
SH-5, meet NetBSD.
Let's hope this is the start of a long and fruitful relationship. :-)
This code, funded by Wasabi Systems, adds initial support for the
Hitachi SuperH(tm) SH-5 cpu architecture to NetBSD.
At the present time, NetBSD/evbsh5 only runs on a SH-5 core simulator
which has no simulated devices other than a simple console. However, it
is good enough to get to the "root device: " prompt.
Device driver support for Real SH-5 Hardware is in place, particularly for
supporting the up-coming Cayman evaluation board, and should be quite
easy to get running when the hardware is available.
There is no in-tree toolchain for this port at this time. Gcc-current has
rudimentary SH-5 support but it is known to be buggy. A working toolchain
was obtained from SuperH to facilitate this port. Gcc-current will be
fixed in due course.
The SH-5 architecture is fully 64-bit capable, although NetBSD/evbsh5 has
currently only been tested in 32-bit mode. It is bi-endian, via a boot-
time option and it also has an "SHcompact" mode in which it will execute
SH-[34] user-land instructions.
For more information on the SH-5, see www.superh.com. Suffice to say it
is *not* just another respin of the SH-[34].
pointer as described in the SVR4 PPC ABI. Though GPR2 is defined by the
SVR4 PPC ABI as system-reserved, the EABI (Embedded API) changes its use
to be the Small Data Area 2 register (const small data). Since powerpc
under NetBSD doesn't use R2 in the kernel (yet), support it as well.
