- Add alignment-safe double and float unions.
- Use the above for the __infinity and __nan constants on all
architectures that use the standard ieee754 representation of
those constants.
- Add a single copy of various ieee754 math functions (frexp, isinf,
isnan, ldexp and modf) that had numerous duplicates among the
arch-specific directories.
- Use the above functions on all architectures where the generic C
versions where used. Architectures that had local assembly
routines are untouched (for those functions only).
in disguise. This means it can just be yet another copy of
xdr_int32_t(), rather than messing around trying to work out the size
of an enum.
This change should make no difference on existing ports, where enum_t
is the same size as all enums, but will make a difference on ARM ELF.
* There is no -indent option to .Bd or .Bl, although you would
never know that from its frequent use in this tree. There is a
"-offset indent" combination that makes sense, and you can certainly
say "-width indent".
* Also, you can't markup the -width option argument, tho you CAN
use a callable macro. So "-width Ar filename" doesn't make sense,
but either "-width Ar" or "-width filename" does, as might something
like "-width xxfilename" for a little extra space.
* There are a lot of needlessly complex hanging tag macros in man4 used
to create simple item lists. Those should be simplified one of these
days before someone copies and edits yet another man4 page.
for most of this. I just integrated the build).
This adds proper functions for the _Qp* parts of the sparc64 ABI (which
handle quad softfloat). The routines work but need additional testing.
However if the compiler calls these currently bad things (core dumps)
will happen as gcc 2.95.3 generates bad calls for these.
Until that problem is fixed in the toolchain -msoft-quad-float cannot be
enabled as the default option for all builds (but the routines need to be
in libc as libgcc contains some references to these and anything including
it via --whole-archive will need the symbols to at least resolve).
round has been tested on Solaris/x86 and Linux hosts.
* Add host tools cap_mkdb, ctags, m4, uudecode.
* Protect __RCSID() and __COPYRIGHT() better.
* Reduce the number of places that need to include "config.h", to keep
sources closer to their "vanilla" versions.
* Add more compat #defines and autoconf-checked functions.
of 3rd party software expects this.
XXX TODO: consider libm-fast for alpha that is not -mieee. Possibly
determine -mieee or not at run-time based on a bit in the executable
headers.
user_from_uid(3) and uid_from_user(3) use to lookup user information.
- Implement pwcache_groupdb(3), which changes the routines that
group_from_gid(3) and gid_from_group(3) use to lookup group information.
- Ensure that private functions in pwcache.c are declared static
- Use strlcpy(3) instead of strncpy(3)
since some "cleanups" in the master (UCB?) version of this file
were made in 1994 (which assumed the size of long is 4 bytes).
This fixes krb5-enabled logins on the Alpha.
- SHLIBDIR Location to install shared libraries if ${USE_SHLIBDIR}
is "yes". Defaults to "/usr/lib".
- USE_SHLIBDIR If "yes", install shared libraries in ${SHLIBDIR}
instead of ${LIBDIR}. Defaults to "no".
Sets ${_LIBSODIR} to the appropriate value.
This may be set by individual Makefiles as well.
- SHLINKDIR Location of shared linker. Defaults to "/usr/libexec".
If != "/usr/libexec", change the dynamic-linker
encoded in shared programs
* Set USE_SHLIBDIR for libraries used by /bin and /sbin:
libc libcrypt libcrypto libedit libipsec libkvm libm libmi387
libtermcap libutil libz
* If ${_LIBSODIR} != ${LIBDIR}, add symlinks from ${LIBDIR}/${LIB}.so*
to ${_LIBSODIR}/${LIB}.so* for compatibility.
* Always install /sbin/init statically (for now)
The net effect of these changes depends on how the variables are set:
1.) If nothing is set or changed, there is no change from the
current behaviour:
- Static /bin, /sbin, and bits of /usr/*
- Dynamic rest
- Shared linker is /usr/libexec/ld*so
2.) If the following make variables are set:
LDSTATIC=
SHLINKDIR=/lib
SHLIBDIR=/lib
Then the behaviour becomes:
- Dynamic tools
- .so libraries used by /bin and /sbin are installed to /lib,
with symlinks from /usr/lib/lib*so to -> /lib/lib*so
where appropriate
- Shared linker is /lib/ld*so
3.) As per 2.), but add the following variable:
USE_SHLIBDIR=yes
This forces all .so's to be instaleld in /lib (with compat
symlinks), not just those tagged by their Makefiles to be.
Again, compat symlinks are installed
it (kernel and libc).
The current version of the gas assembler in the tree (2.11.2) already
defaults to generating object files for "-Av9 -64", supporting V9
instructions in ELF64 object format. "-Av9a" is only needed for specific
parts of the NetBSD base sources, and not for all third-party code.
