* Move PathBuffer helper class out of find_paths.cpp into its own
header.
* find_directory():
- Make use of MemoryDeleter to simplify things.
- Make use of PathBuffer for a simpler and more correct handling.
- Make B_UTILITIES_DIRECTORY to B_APPS_DIRECTORY. /boot/utilities
doesn't exist anyway.
- Resolve the concerned constants to the architecture specific
subdirectory, when called in a secondary architecture context, just
like find_path*().
* get_architectures() returns the primary and the secondary
architectures in one array. That turned out to be convenient.
* Add C++ versions for get[_secondary]_architectures(), returning a
BStringList.
* Add get_architecture(), get_primary_architecture(),
get_secondary_architectures(), guess_architecture_for_path() to get
the caller's architecture, the primary architecture, all secondary
architectures, or the architecture associated with a specified path
respectively.
* Rename the find_path*() functions to find_path*_etc() and add an
optional architecture parameter. Add simplified find_path*()
functions.
* BPathFinder: Add FindPath[s]() versions with an architecture
parameter.
The new functions are meant to replace many uses of find_directory():
* find_paths() is supposed to be used when the directories of a certain
kind in all installation directories are needed (e.g. font
directories, add-on directory, etc.). Using this API makes code
robust wrt addition or removal of installation locations.
* find_path() is supposed to be used when files/directories associated
with a loaded program, library, or add-on need to be found (e.g. data
files or global settings).
* find_path_for_path() is similar to find_path(), but it starts from a
given path instead of an image.
Instead of listing all the objects we want from the libgcc archive
we just make a copy of it and remove those we don't want, and link
to it.
This should allow returning MAXLINE in jam to a sane value.
Should already have been done back when the semantics for the
B_COMMON_*DIRECTORY constants was changed.
Currently old and new version behave the same. So this is just a
contingency measure ATM.
* This does intentionally break source compatibility, so that a review
of concerned code is forced.
* Binary compatibility should be maintained in most cases. The values
of the constants for the writable directories are now used for the
writable system directories. The values for the non-writable
directories are mapped to "/boot/system/data/empty/...", an empty or
non-existent directory, so that they will simply be skipped in search
paths. Only code that explicitly expects to find something in a
B_COMMON_* directory, will fail.
* Remove support for the "common" installation location from packagefs,
package kit, package daemon, package managers.
* Rename the B_COMMON_*_DIRECTORY constants referring to writable
directories to B_SYSTEM_*_DIRECTORY.
* Remove/adjust the use of various B_COMMON_*_DIRECTORY constants.
I'm sure some occurrence still remain. They can be adjusted when the
remaining B_COMMON_*_DIRECTORY constants are removed.
* find_directory() and hard-coded paths use /boot/system instead of
/boot/common.
* The build system creates the writable directories in /boot/system
instead of /boot/common.
* The build system no longer installs any packages in /boot/common.
jam fails in execve() trying to run the command due to
a too large arguments list because of the many objects in libgcc.
We split them into two intermediate objects,
then we link them to libroot.
* __pthread_destroy_thread() will in turn free the pthread_thread object.
* this fixes a leak of 2072 bytes on each thread construction/destruction
and #9945. MediaExtractor spawns a thread on construction, which leaked
its pthread_thread object on destuction.
Support for 64-bit atomic operations for ARMv7+ is currently stubbed
out in libroot, but our current targets do not use it anyway.
We now select atomics-as-syscalls automatically based on the ARM
architecture we're building for. The intent is to do away with
most of the board specifics (at the very least on the kernel side)
and just specify the lowest ARMvX version you want to build for.
This will give flexibility in being able to distribute a single
image for a wide range of devices, and building a tuned system
for one specific core type.
* fix unitialized variables in __printf_fphex() in case of architectures
without support for long double - this triggered unreliable results
or crashes when using %La or %La on x86
* activate long double implementation in use for x86_64 for x86, too,
as they share the long double format
(cherry picked from commit d1716b277c)

* For the comparison cast the character parameter to char as required
by the spec.
* Fix broken handling of strrchr(..., 0). It is supposed to return a
pointer to the end of the string. It did return a pointer to the
start.
* All packaging architecture dependent variables do now have a
respective suffix and are set up for each configured packaging
architecture, save for the kernel and boot loader variables, which
are still only set up for the primary architecture.
For convenience TARGET_PACKAGING_ARCH, TARGET_ARCH, TARGET_LIBSUPC++,
and TARGET_LIBSTDC++ are set to the respective values for the primary
packaging architecture by default.
* Introduce a set of MultiArch* rules to help with building targets for
multiple packaging architectures. Generally the respective targets are
(additionally) gristed with the packaging architecture. For libraries
the additional grist is usually omitted for the primary architecture
(e.g. libroot.so and <x86>libroot.so for x86_gcc2/x86 hybrid), so that
Jamfiles for targets built only for the primary architecture don't
need to be changed.
* Add multi-arch build support for all targets needed for the stage 1
cross devel package as well as for libbe (untested).
