- fix _C_LABEL so that it actually works.
- make __RENAME use _C_LABEL.
- fix __RENAME so that it expects an unquoted argument.
- fix __indr_reference and __warn_references so that they
supply their own final semicolon.
- define __warn_references to nothing if not GNU C (required
by the way it's used).
The __warn_references semicolon change has to be made
so that __warn_references can be defined into nothing.
(A ; all by itself isn't a great idea.) The __indr_reference
change was made for consistency.
Only assembly version for i386 bswap16 and bswap32 for now (bswap64 uses
bswap32). Contribution of assembly versions of these are welcome.
Add byte-swapping of ext2fs metadata for big-endian systems.
Tested on i386 and sparc.
- ENTRY_NOPROFILE() and ASENTRY_NOPROFILE(), similar to ENTRY() and
ASENTRY(), but without the profiling prologue.
- GLOBAL()/ASGLOBAL() and LOCAL()/ASLOCAL(), for defining global and
local variables with C and ASM labels.
- BSS()/ASBSS(), for defining items in the BSS segment, with C or
ASM labels.
- PANIC("panic message") - shorthand for calling panic() from assembly code.
- VECTOR(), ASVECTOR(), VECTOR_UNUSED - shorthand for defining entries
in the vector table.
Also, change RCSID() to pad out the string to even boundary.
to call mcount(). This is needed because the ``link a6,#0'' insn used
trips up gcc's ANSI preprocessor (A # in a function-type macro must be
followed by a macro argument). _PROF_PROLOG is also used in the i386
asm.h.
Solaris' asm_linkage.h has a MCOUNT macro similar to _PROF_PROLOG
except it expands to different code sequences based on whether a
function is being compiled with "prof" or "gprof" instrumentation.
I also discovered that the m68k ALTENTRY is very different than the
implementation used by other NetBSD ports. Usually ALTENTRY simply
provides an alternate function entry point. The m68k version takes a
second argument and jumps inside the second function when profiling is
enabled. The m68k behavior is similar to the ENTRY2 macro found in
solaris.
Providing ENTRY2 and changing all the code that uses ALTENTRY to use
it would be a desirable change.
