hack netstat ieee1394 address printing.
mdate 14 Nov 2000
who matt
file lib/libc/net/getnameinfo.c : 1.32 : 497 : 503
descr
Because the current implementation of IP over IEEE1394, the
fw device address contains more than just the IEEE1394 EUI-64.
So when printing out IEEE1394 addresses, ignore the extra stuff.

hack xterm vs. libterm
mdate 01 Aug 2000
who jdc
file xsrc/xc/programs/xterm/main.c : 1.2 : 3609 : 3614
pr 10383
descr
In order to extend the termcap string over 1023 bytes, a ZZ entry was
introduced to point to a memory location containing the full entry.
Without this hack, xterm will export a termcap containing the ZZ
entry, which will then be ignored by libterm. As xterm modifies the
exported termcap, this would cause those modifications to be ignored.

hack wi-at-big-endian-bus
cdate 15 Mar 2002

file dev/ic/wireg.h
descr Add an option to access the underlying bus in big endian byte order
to work around deficiencies in bus_space_{read,write}_* macros.
Those don't allow the implementation of a proper pcmcia bus space

hack specific knowledge of colours in curses code

file lib/libcurses/color.c : r1.24

Swap red/blue and yellow/cyan colours for COLOR_OTHER.
Fix is to enhance libtermcap to understand terminfo-style % sequences.

hack Compensation for differing types of LINUX_USRSTACK and USRSTACK
cdate 21 Aug 2003
who he
file sys/miscfs/procfs/procfs_linux.c : 1.14
descr
Not all ports have LINUX_USRSTACK and/or USRSTACK defined as
literals/constants, but refer to variables of a type which is
not "unsigned long", causing compilation of procfs_linux.c to
fail with "makes integer from pointer without a cast". This
is observed on e.g. the sun3 port. Ideally the "types" for
symbols should be consistent across all ports.

hack GCC2 isn't C99
cdate 5 December 2003
who mrg
file gnu/dist/binutils/ld/ldlex.c: r1.2
descr
ldlex.c is generated from ldlex.l and we get macro redefinition
errors from it if __STDC_VERSION__ is not C99 compliant. This
hack forces NetBSD 1.6 and later systems to also include <stdint.h>
to get the relevant definitions. This hack should be backed out
when all platforms have switched away from GCC2.

hack gcc-strict-aliasing
cdate 6 August 2004
who junyoung
pr 26516
file src/usr.sbin/racoon/racoon/Makefile : 1.21
descr
GCC issues a warning "dereferencing type-punned pointer will break
strict-aliasing rules" when compiling
crypto/dist/kame/racoon/crypto/openssl.c with -O[23s]. Note that this
is due to use of type casting in a non-standard way in the code and
not a compiler bug. Once a new release of KAME with a proper fix
applied is imported this should be backed out.

descr
GCC 4.1 gets many uninitialised variable warnings wrong. We should
really audit all the old hacks like this when older compilers are
removed from the tree, as many are probably no longer required.
The problem is that it does not recognize initialization via function
call pointer. I.e.
int p;
foo(&p);
does not mark p as initialized.

hack binutil-2.11-sparc64-pltrela
mdate 14 Aug 2001
who eeh
file libexec/ld.elf_so/arch/sparc64/mdreloc.c
descr
The first four PLT entries are reserved. There is some
disagreement whether they should have associated relocation
entries. Both the SPARC 32-bit and 64-bit ELF specifications
say that they should have relocation entries, but the 32-bit
SPARC binutils do not generate them, and now the 64-bit SPARC
binutils have stopped generating them too.
To provide binary compatibility, we will check the first entry,
if it is reserved it should not be of the type JMP_SLOT. If it
is JMP_SLOT, then the 4 reserved entries were not generated and
our index is 4 entries too far, so we frob the rela pointer.

hack gcc 3.3.2 on sh5 - fatal warning compiling function.c
cdate Sun Dec 7 19:44:05 GMT 2003
who scw
file gnu/usr.bin/gcc3/backend/Makefile : 1.13
descr
Gcc3 for sh5 issues a warning:
.../gnu/dist/gcc/gcc/function.c:4742: warning: `and' of
mutually exclusive equal-tests is always 0.
This causes the build to fail because of -Werror.
Work-around by defining NOGCCERROR when building for sh5.

hack gcc 3.3.2/gcc/ra-colorize.c
cdate Wed Nov 5 11:03:13 EST 2003
who mrg
file gnu/usr.bin/gcc3/backend/Makefile : 1.11
descr
ra-colorize.c causes a whole spew of unreferenced .L* local
symbols. using -O0 (or even -O2 reportedly) avoids the problem.
Note this has been fixed in 3.3.3 at least on m68k,
but it hasn't been confirmed on sun2/m68000.
(it's too slow even on emulator and unlikely to build
toolchains on sun2 with its maximum 4MB RAM)

descr
The macppc gcc-3.3 compiler miscompiles rbt.c when these
functions are inlined. The error is:
.* named[368]: rbt.c:1584: INSIST(child != (void *)0) >failed
.* named[368]: exiting (due to assertion failure)
This is reportedly fixed in gcc-3.4

hack hppa boot-from-disk memory corruption
cdate Wed May 18 06:56:07 PDT 2005
who chs
file src/sys/dev/scsipi/scsipiconf.h : 1.98
descr
There is some bug with DMA on hppa that corrupts scsipi_xfer
structures, but it only shows up when booting from disk.
For now, we'll add some padding to scsipi_xfer so that
the corrupted memory is not otherwise used.

file src/sys/kern/exec_elf32.c : 1.107
descr
With COMPAT_16 or previous enabled (which enables
ELF_INTERP_NON_RELOCATABLE) a recent ld.elf_so will
load and run at address 0. The check to fix this in
rev 1.107 only checks the first psection of the ELF
executable, which may not be loadable. A more correct
fix is to check the first loadable psection instead of
just the first psection.
