The new configure option "--use-xattr-ref" enables an xattr assisted
variant of the generic attribute emulation. Instead of using the inode
ID of a node to identify its attribute directory, we use a reasonably
unique random 128 bit number, which we generate and attach as an
attribute to the node. This way, when a node changes its inode ID
(defragmentation?) or the inode ID of a removed node with a left-over
attribute directory is reused, attributes won't get mixed up.
The old method is still used for symlinks (since on Linux only
priviledged users can write attributes on symlinks), but those usually
only have a rather boring BEOS:TYPE attribute, so mix-ups wouldn't be
that problematic anyway.
* The GCC2 buildtool sources were updated, so change the date
* A new GCC2 optional package will be added later today
+alpha 4 (build will break otherwise)
Turns out that libgcc is needed, for some reason building the kernel
with -O0 does not end up referencing libgcc but -O2 does. A separate
build of it is done with -mno-red-zone, same reason as for libsupc++.
Ended up being easy to rebuild with different CFLAGS: previously I'd
tried doing `CFLAGS="-mno-red-zone" make` in the libgcc dir which
didn't override, the correct way is `make CFLAGS="-mno-red-zone"`
Kernel mode code on x86_64 needs to be built with -mno-red-zone as
interrupts would corrupt the red zone if it were in use. However, the
kernel is linked with libsupc++, which was not compiled with
-mno-red-zone. If an interrupt occurred in libsupc++ code the red zone
would get corrupted. This was causing random panics, particularly under
heavy system load. Therefore, on x86_64 a separate build of libsupc++
with -mno-red-zone is now done for the kernel to use. Note: this commit
will require a rerun of configure and rebuild of cross tools.
The elfedit tool doesn't exist with the old binutils, so configure was
failing when it tried to get the path to it. Only try to search for it
if building GCC 4.
Added the necessary build flags for modules, and added a module (dpc)
to the floppy image for x86_64 builds for testing purposes. The module
gets loaded correctly and its code runs without issue. Only non-trivial
addition is the different method for generating kernel.so, this is
explained in the kernel Jamfile.
* Use gcc and g++ rather than cc and c++, as the latter now point to
clang with recent Xcode versions and compilation of the host tools
fail for various reasons with it.
* Replace the case-sensitive filesystem check with a more basic one,
as diskutil no longer supports the behaviour of getting info for the
volume that any path is on.
* Updated ReadMe with a correct list of prerequisites for OS X.
* GCC 2 builds are still broken due to a strange error that only
occurs with a GCC 2 built on OS X 10.7
* x86_64 is using the existing *_ia32 boot platforms.
* Special flags are required when compiling the loader to get GCC to compile
32-bit code. This adds a new set of rules for compiling boot code rather
than using the kernel rules, which compile using the necessary flags.
* Some x86_64 private headers have been stubbed by #include'ing the x86
versions. These will be replaced later.
* applied patch by VinDuv that adds a Perl-based implementation of readlink,
which is needed on Mac OX X, as that doesn't have any of the other fallbacks
- thanks!
IIRC, other people have managed to configure without this on Mac OS X, but
I suppose no harm can be done by providing this as last resort.

haiku target to be compiled. fenv.h is src/lib/msun/amd64/fenv.h from
freebsd.

HAIKU_HOST_PLATFORM_64_BIT if the host platform is 64 bit. Removed the

HAIKU_ADD_ALTERNATIVE_GCC_LIBS is set by default. One has to explicitely

cross compiling or not.

4). One has to have a (fully configured) "generated" directory for the
alternative gcc and specify it using the new option
"--alternative-gcc-output-dir" when configuring the main build.
Additionally the build variable HAIKU_ADD_ALTERNATIVE_GCC_LIBS has to be
set to "1".
If that has been done, when building the image a sub-jam is invoked that
generates the alternative libs and zips them. The main-jam unzips them
into the correct directory in the image. Note that the JAM build
variable has to be set when using a jam executable not invoked by "jam".
Tested with gcc 2 NetPositive, Pe, and FireFox under gcc 4 Haiku, and
with a few of the standard gcc 4 Haiku apps under gcc 2 Haiku. Seems to
work fine so far.

gcc. You need to reconfigure and rebuild the cross-tools to have this
change take effect.
Note that from now on it is no longer possible to use the native BeOS
compiler to build Haiku. You'll have to build a cross compiler, too. I
haven't tested whether this works at all, though.

compatibility relation to the official Haiku distribution. "official"
is for the official Haiku distribution itself, "compatible" for Haiku
Compatible (tm) distros, and "default" for all others (the default value

HAIKU_DISTRO_COMPATIBILITY_{OFFICIAL,COMPATIBLE,DEFAULT} macros is

xattrs. It can be enabled with the configure switch "--use-xattr". Note
that the amount of data stored in attributes may be limited by the used
file system -- e.g. AFAIK ext3 has a limit of one block (usually 4 KB)
for all attributes of a file, which might not suffice. XFS should be
fine, as should ReiserFS 3.6 (or any FS which stores attributes in
hidden files).

--build-cross-tools-gcc4.
* Fixed running "configure --build-cross-tools" from another directory
than the source dir. The parameter to the script was missing and thus
the tools were created in <sources>/generated.
* Removed stdc++ lib header dir ".../debug". One is supposed to include
<debug/...> to get the debug headers.
* The stdc++ lib header dirs are now listed one per line in the
generated BuildConfig. This works around the 512 bytes jam line length
limit.

* Temporarily pass --no-undefined to the linker. Should be in the
compiler specs, but isn't in the gcc 4 I built.
* Define _BEOS_R5_COMPATIBLE_ macro when building with gcc 2. Can be
used in headers for instance.

we use the libstdc++ (including it's headers) that comes with the
compiler.
* Apparently option "-I-" has been deprecated, which is why we now treat the
include stuff a bit differently.
* Removed avcodec from the Haiku image, since the library wouldn't build with
gcc 4, and I'm not in the mood to fix that (declaration of an array of an
incomplete type).

Building our components for use with R5/dano/whatever is now something you need
to want, it's not the default anymore.
Note: you can still build single components for R5 by overriding the target
platform per target, too, for example:
$ TARGET_PLATFORM=r5 jam app_server

used with non GPL compatible applications, this rule normally is not invoked when
building the tree. However, if the user is sure that he only uses GPL compatible

the including of GPL licensed addons that are integrated by SubIncludeGPL instead
of SubInclude.

parsed in Jamrules into a list (`.' and `-' are considered delimiters)
written into GCC_VERSION. E.g. for the GeekGadgets compiler expect

contain the major version, GCC_VERSION[2] the middle one.
