Adrien Destugues 857c79a6b8 Introduce symbol_visibility.h with macros to define hidden functions These were used in function_remapper.cpp but can be used elsewhere too, so move them to a private header. Also use them for the stack protector hidden function definition (probably not so useful since gcc2 doesn't support using the stack protector anyway?). The gcc2 way to make a symbol hidden is to manually generate the .hidden directive in the assembler output. This is not perfect: it is hard to use for C++ functions and methods (manual mangling of the name is needed), and inline assembler can only be inserted inside functions. But the alternative is patching gcc2 to add support for the function attribute, and I don't want to dig into that today.		2021-10-09 15:03:36 +02:00

Haiku

Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs

Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.

Goals

Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
Clean, clear, concise code.
Unified desktop environment.

Trying Haiku

Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.

Compiling Haiku

See ReadMe.Compiling.

Contributing

Haiku is a meritocratic open source project with a large variety of tasks. Even if you can't write code, you can still help! Haiku needs designers, (technical) writers, translators, testers... Get involved and help out!
