- bump up version to 4.4.0
|
|
We've been manually editing newlib.hin after generating it with
autoheader to drop the version defines that we keep in the separate
_newlib_version.h header. This is confusing for people, and is an
easy source of mistakes/errors.
Since we're already running sed on newlib.h during configure to
filter out defines we don't want to expose, add the version macros
there too. This way we don't have to manually edit newlib.hin.
This simplifies the autoreconf step in exchange for a slightly more
complicated configure+sed step, but seems worth the trade-off.

This implements a set of vectorized math routines to be used by the
compiler auto-vectorizer. Versions for vectors with 2 lanes up to
64 lanes (in powers of 2) are provided.
These routines are based on the scalar versions of the math routines in
libm/common, libm/math and libm/mathfp. They make extensive use of the GCC
C vector extensions and GCN-specific builtins in GCC.

By default, Newlib uses a huge object of type struct _reent to store
thread-specific data. This object is returned by __getreent() if the
__DYNAMIC_REENT__ Newlib configuration option is defined.
The reentrancy structure contains for example errno and the standard input,
output, and error file streams. This means that if an application only uses
errno it has a dependency on the file stream support even if it does not use
it. This is an issue for lower end targets and applications which need to
qualify the software according to safety standards (for example ECSS-E-ST-40C,
ECSS-Q-ST-80C, IEC 61508, ISO 26262, DO-178, DO-330, DO-333).
If the new _REENT_THREAD_LOCAL configuration option is enabled, then struct
_reent is replaced by dedicated thread-local objects for each struct _reent
member. The thread-local objects are defined in translation units which use
the corresponding object.

In commit b0cb9f85ca3626e0e68fd451c3090d253ceb4300 the regeneration of the
configure and newlib.hin files was missing.
|
|
For the exit processing only members of _GLOBAL_REENT were used by default. If
the _REENT_GLOBAL_ATEXIT option was enabled, then the data structures were
provided through dedicated global objects. Make this option the default.
Remove the option. Rename struct _reent members _atexit and _atexit0 to
_reserved_6 and _reserved_7, respectively. Provide them only if
_REENT_BACKWARD_BINARY_COMPAT is defined.
|
|
Add the --enable-newlib-reent-binary-compat configure option. This option is
disabled by default. If enabled, then unused members in struct _reent are
preserved to maintain the structure layout.

This code has not been updated since 2016, and it looks like it has
rotted quite a bit since. It does not build against the current set
of phoenix sources -- I had to hack both the kernel headers and the
newlib headers up to get it to build, and I still have no idea if it
actually links or runs. It seems like the project itself has moved
away from newlib and to its own C library:
https://phoenix-rtos.com/documentation/libc/README.md
So since there's no interest from the phoenix folks to maintain this,
and it has a significant amount of non-standard code that we try to
keep up-to-date (without actually testing it), just punt it all.
|
|
This was disabled as part of the migration away from the cygnus option
as that implied no-dependencies.
We currently have 1-to-1 updates enabled -- if you touch a .c file,
the corresponding .o file will be rebuilt. But if you touch a header
file, none of the files using that get rebuilt.

Convert all the libc/ subdir makes into the top-level Makefile. This
allows us to build all of libc from the top Makefile without using any
recursive make calls. This is faster and avoids the funky lib.a logic
where we unpack subdir archives to repack into a single libc.a. The
machine override logic is maintained though by way of Makefile include
ordering, and source file accumulation in libc_a_SOURCES.
There's a few dummy.c files that are no longer necessary since we aren't
doing the lib.a accumulating, so punt them.
The winsup code has been pulling the internal newlib ssp library out,
but that doesn't exist anymore, so change that to pull the objects.
|
|
This is already called earlier in this file, so no need to do it again.
|
|
This kills off the last configure script under libc/ and folds it
into the top newlib configure script. The a lot of the logic was
already in the top configure script, so move what's left into a
libc/acinclude.m4 file.

Convert all the libm/ subdir makes into the top-level Makefile. This
allows us to build all of libm from the top Makefile without using any
recursive make calls. This is faster and avoids the funky lib.a logic
where we unpack subdir archives to repack into a single libm.a. The
machine override logic is maintained though by way of Makefile include
ordering, and source file accumulation in libm_a_SOURCES.
One thing to note is that this will require GNU Make because of:
libm_a_CFLAGS = ... $(libm_a_CFLAGS_$(subst /,_,$(@D)))
This was the only way I could find to supporting per-dir compiler
settings, and I couldn't find a POSIX compatible way of transforming
the variable content. I don't think this is a big deal as other
Makefiles in the tree are using GNU Make-specific syntax, but I call
this out as it's the only one so far in the new automake code that
I've been writing.
Automake doesn't provide precise control over the output object names
(by design). This is fine by default as we get consistent names in all
the subdirs: libm_a-<source>.o. But this relies on using the same set
of compiler flags for all objects. We currently compile libm/common/
with different optimizations than the rest.
If we want to compile objects differently, we can create an intermediate
archive with the subset of objects with unique flags, and then add those
objects to the main archive. But Automake will use a different prefix
for the objects, and thus we can't rely on ordering to override.
But if we leverage $@, we can turn Automake's CFLAGS into a multiplex
on a per-dir (and even per-file if we wanted) basis. Unfortunately,
since $@ contains /, Automake complains it's an invalid name. While
GNU Make supports this, it's a POSIX extension, so Automake flags it.
Using $(subst) avoids the Automake warning to get a POSIX compliant
name, albeit with a GNU Make extension.

I missed this cleanup when rebasing on top of the latest branch.
|
|
This kills off the last configure script under libm/ and folds it
into the top newlib configure script. The vast majority of logic
was already in the top configure script, so move the little that
is left into a libm/acinclude.m4 file.
|

This was needed only to support libtool in case objects ended in .lo
instead of .o, but we dropped libtool, so drop this too.

This was needed only to support libtool in case the library ended in

This was only ever used for i?86-pc-linux-gnu targets, but that's been
broken for years, and has since been dropped. So clean this up too.
This also deletes the funky objectlist logic since it only existed for
the libtool libraries. Since it was the only thing left in the small
Makefile.shared file, we can punt that too.

This was added 20+ years ago. It seems to have very few (or no users)
as it only works on 32-bit x86 GNU/Linux (i.e. glibc) systems, and even
then only with old versions of glibc. It hasn't compiled in at least 5
years, but most likely been broken for more like 15 years -- it relies
on internal glibc APIs (like linuxthreads), and that code has changed
and been deleted significantly since.
This single target ends up dragging in a lot of non-trivial code that is
hard to keep working, and currently impossible to verify -- the libtool
and iconvdata and sys/linux/ code isn't used by anything else, but ends
up touching just about every build file in the tree. Punt the target so
we can start stripping out all these unique code paths.
This commit by itself just disables the target. We'll start deleting the
individual unused pieces in followups.

We require autoconf-2.69 now, so we don't need this old install hack.
|
|
Now that we rely on AC_NO_EXECUTABLES to disable link tests, we don't
need this hack to disable exeext probing.
|
|
Now that we require automake-1.15, we can use this macro rather than
do the tool search ourselves.
|
|
Now that we require a recent automake version, rely on it to provide AS
and CCAS and CCASFLAGS for us.
|
|
Now that we use AC_NO_EXECUTABLES, and we require a recent version of
autoconf, we don't need to define our own copies of these macros. So
switch to the standard AC_PROG_CC.
|
|
This logic was added to libc & libm to get it working again after some
reworks in the CPP handling, but now that that's settled, let's move
this to the common newlib configure logic. This will make it easier
to consolidate all the configure calls into the top-level newlib dir.
This does create a lot of noise in the generate scripts, but that's
because of the ordering of the calls, not because of correctness. We
will try to draw that back down in follow up commits as we modernize
the toolchain calls in here.
|
|
We've been using both libc_cv_ and newlib_cv_ for our cache vars.
Let's consolidate on newlib_cv_ to avoid conflicts with glibc which
is already using the libc_cv_ prefix.
|
|
These aren't used in any of the makefiles, so there's no point in
exporting these. These are only checked in the configure script.
|
|
Since commit dcbff9eea71d06454e7d55d6b7e72672c0987d6d ("newlib: merge
iconvdata into top-level Makefile"), there is no configure script in
the iconvdata/ subdir, so this call will just issue a warning and not
do anything useful. Punt it.
|
|
When using the top-level configure script but subdir Makefiles, the
newlib_basedir value gets a bit out of sync: it's relative to where
configure lives, not where the Makefile lives. Move the abs setting
from the top-level configure script into acinclude.m4 so we can rely
on it being available everywhere. Although this commit doesn't use
it anywhere, just lays the groundwork.
|
|
Commit dd23de27c8e45513ad276f503a0036c3bc4e487b ("newlib: libc: install
CRT0 straight out of subdir") got rid of the libc/sys/ intermediate for
copying the file up, but the top-level newlib/ dir was still expecting
a libc/crt0.o to exist so it could install. Update that to also look
for the crt0 file directly under libc/ like we already do for crt1.
|
|
Avoid a recursive make with this tiny subdir to speed things up a bit.
|
|
This is already handled by autotools for us automatically. You can
tell as the generated output is exactly the same other than deleting
a few blank lines.
|
|
It's unclear why this was added originally, but assuming it was needed
20 years ago, it shouldn't be explicitly required nowadays. Current
versions of autotools already take care of exporting LDFLAGS to the
Makefile as needed (things are actually getting linked). That's why
the configure diffs show LDFLAGS still here, but shifted to a diff
place in the output list. A few dirs stop exporting LDFLAGS, but
that's because they don't do any linking, only compiling, so it's
correct.
As for the use of $ldflags instead of the standard $LDFLAGS, I can't
really explain that at all. Just use the right name so users don't
have to dig into why their setting isn't respected, and then use a
non-standard name instead. Adjust the testsuite to match.
|
|
None of the subdirs actually use the multilib arg, so include the
logic only in the top-level configure.
|
|
The current newlib multilib logic is almost exactly the same as the
config/multi.m4, and the differences should be minor, so switch over
to that to delete custom logic on ourside.
|
|
Now that we require a recent version of autoconf, we can rely on this
macro working. This change was already made to libm, but these other
dirs were missed as I didn't notice it being duplicated in 3 places.
|
|
Now that newlib.hin has been brought up to date and all of its defines
are produced by configure, we can switch it to using autoheader without
manual editing. This relies on a few pieces:
* Moving the header & footer into configure.ac via AH_TOP & AH_BOTTOM.
* Running a post-process step on newlib.h to delete all the defines we
didn't export ourselves. Basically, anything without a _ prefix.
This will leave behind some spurious comments in newlib.h related to
the defines we filtered out, but should be harmless, so it's probably
not worth the effort to construct a more complicated sed expression to
also strip those out.
|
|
The list of iconv to/from defines is hand maintained in newlib.hin.
Lets leverage mkdeps.pl to generate this list automatically from the
list of known encodings. The newlib.hin list is up-to-date, so the
list in iconv.m4 matches the list already generated.
|
|
This will make it easier to move newlib.h to use autoheader directly.
We only want the newlib version defines in our hand curated version
file, _newlib_version.h, not in the template header, newlib.h, so
using AC_DEFINE doesn't make much sense.
|
|
Sync these back from newlib.hin to configure.ac, and touchup some of
the forms to be consistent (like being full sentences). Also use the
AC_DEFINE-vs-AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED macros correctly. This will make it
easier to re-enable autoheader for managing newlib.hin.
|
|
This define is only used by newlib internally, so stop exporting it
as HAVE_INITFINI_ARRAY since this can conflict with defines packages
use themselves.
We don't really need to add _ to HAVE_INIT_FINI too since it isn't
exported in newlib.h, but might as well be consistent here.
We can't (easily) add this to newlib_cflags like HAVE_INIT_FINI is
because this is based on a compile-time test in the top configure,
not on plain shell code in configure.host. We'd have to replicate
the test in every subdir in order to have it passed down.
|
|
Since AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE calls AC_PROG_AWK, and some configure.ac
scripts call it too, we end up testing for awk multiple times. If
we change NEWLIB_CONFIGURE to require the macro instead, then it
makes sure it's always expanded, but only once.
While we're here, do the same thing with AC_PROG_INSTALL since it
is also called by AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, although it doesn't currently
result in duplicate configure checks.
|
|
The AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL macro has been deprecated for a while and code
should call LT_INIT with win32-dll instead. Update the calls to match.
The generated code is noisy not because of substantial differences, but
because the order of some macros change (i.e. instead of calling AS and
then CC, CC is called first and then AS).
