We have many uses of sys/stat.h that are unprotected by HAVE_SYS_STAT_H,
so this is more formalizing the reality that we require this header.
Since we switched to gnulib, it guarantees that a sys/stat.h exists
for us to include, so we're doubly OK.
We have many uses of unistd.h that are unprotected by HAVE_UNISTD_H,
so this is more formalizing the reality that we require this header.
Since we switched to gnulib, it guarantees that a unistd.h exists
for us to include, so we're doubly OK.
This logic was added in order to expose the strsignal prototype for
nrun.c. Since then, we've migrated to gnulib as our portability layer,
and it takes care of probing system extensions for us, so there's no
need to duplicate the work.
Now that all ports (that use igen) build in the top-level and depend
on igen, we can move the conditional logic out of configure. We also
switch from noinst_LIBRARIES to EXTRA_LIBRARIES so that the library
is only built when needed (i.e. the igen tool is used).
The objects are still compiled in the subdir, but the creation of the
archive itself is in the top-level. This is a required step before we
can move compilation itself up, and makes it easier to review.
The downside is that each object compile is a recursive make instead of
a single one. On my 4 core system, it adds ~100msec to the build per
port, so it's not great, but it shouldn't be a big deal. This will go
away of course once the top-level compiles objects.
The mips code is a little more tricky than others because, for multi-run
targets, it generates the list of sources & objects on the fly in the
configure script.
This commit moves getopt declaration checker originally in sim/
configure.ac; added in commit 340aa4f6872c ("sim: Check known getopt
definition existence") to sim/m4/sim_ac_platform.m4 (inside the
SIM_AC_PLATFORM macro).
It also regenerates configuration files using the maintainer mode.
Rather than rely on SIM_SUBDIRS being set, add a dedicated variable
to track whether to enable the sim. While the current code works
fine, it won't work as we remove the recursive make logic (i.e. the
SIM_SUBDIRS variable).
Rather than define our own hack for emitting an include statement,
use the existing Automake include variables. These have the nice
side-effect of being more portable.
Clean up includes a bit by making ports include bfd/ headers
explicitly. This matches other projects, and makes it more clear
where these headers are coming from.
The naming in here has grown organically and is confusing to follow.
Originally there was only one set of rules for generating code from
the igen sources, so calling it "tmp-igen" and such made sense. But
when other multigen modes were added ("m16" & "multi") which also
used igen, it's not clear what's common igen and what's specific to
this generation mode. So rename the set of rules from "igen" to
"single" so it's easier to follow.
The m16 & multi targets generate itable once even when all the other
modules are generated multiple times. The default igen target will
generate itable with everything else out of convenience. This means
flags are passed which don't affect the generated itable there.
We can unify the itable generation by making sure the right -F/-M
filter variables are passed down. Since there's already a dedicated
rule & variable in the multi build mode, generalize that and switch
the m16 & igen builds over too.
I spent a lot of time staring at this code, building for diff mips
targets, and exploring all the shell code paths. I think this is
safe, but only time (and users) will really tell.
This variable is only used to generate the itable files. In preparation
for merging the itable logic among all ports, rename "multi_flags" to a
more appropriate "igen_itable_flags" variable. There should be no real
chagnes here otherwise.
This code appears to be unused since it was first merged. When
micromips was enabled, it was via the "MULTI" config, not the
"MICROMIPS" config, and the multi configs have sep vars. Since
nothing sets SIM_MIPS_GEN=MICROMIPS in the config, all of this
should be unreachable, so punt it to simplify. Further, the
SIM_MIPS_MICROMIPS16_FLAGS & SIM_MIPS_MICROMIPS_FLAGS settings
rely on sim_mips_micromips{,16}_{filter,machine} variables that
are never set in the configure script.
While mips has respected sim_igen_smp at configure time (which was
always empty since it defaulted smp to off), no other igen port did.
Move this to a makefile variable and plumb it through the common
IGEN_RUN variable instead so everyone gets it by default. We also
clean up some redundant -N0 setting with multirun mips.
This is the last bit of logic that exists in the mips configure
script, so move it to the top-level configure to kill it off.
We still have to move the Makefile.in igen logic to local.mk,
but this is a required first step for that.
This drops support for the --enable-sim-float configure option,
but it's not clear anyone ever actually used that. Eventually
we'll want this to be a runtime option anyways.
When merging ppc configure checks into the top-level, these 2 funcs
were accidentally dropped (probably due to incorrect resolution of
conflicts). Restore them since the ppc code utilizes them both.
We've been using this only to set the default word size to 32. We
can easily move this into the makefile via a -D compiler flag and
clean up the build logic quite a bit.

We've been using this only to set the default word size to 32-vs-64
based on the $target. We can easily merge this with the top-level
configure script to clean things up a bit.
The install code was using $SUBDIRS to track all enabled arches. This
works, but isn't great if we want to add a subdir that isn't an arch
port, or as we merge the subdirs into the top-level. Create a new var
explicitly to track the list of enabled arches instead.
Automake will run each subdir individually before moving on to the next
one. This means that the linking phase, a single threaded process, will
not run in parallel with anything else. When we have to link ~32 ports,
that's 32 link steps that don't take advantage of parallel systems. On
my really old 4-core system, this cuts a multi-target build from ~60 sec
to ~30 sec. We eventually want to move all compile+link steps to this
common dir anyways, so might as well move linking now for a nice speedup.
We use noinst_PROGRAMS instead of bin_PROGRAMS because we're taking care
of the install ourselves rather than letting automake process it.
With more C libraries moving functions entirely into the main -lc,
change the AC_CHECK_LIB calls to AC_SEARCH_LIBS so we look in there
first and avoid extra linkage when possible.
In order to merge more common/ files into the top-level, we need to
add more host flags to CPPFLAGS, and that conflicts with our current
use with build-time tools. So split them apart like we do with all
other build flags to avoid the issue.
Clang generates a warning if there is a function declaration/definition
with zero arguments. Such declarations/definitions without a prototype (an
argument list) are deprecated forms of indefinite arguments
("-Wdeprecated-non-prototype"). On the default configuration, it causes a
build failure (unless "--disable-werror" is specified).
include/getopt.h defines some getopt function definitions but one of them
has a form "extern int getopt ();". If this form is selected in
include/getopt.h, Clang generates a warning and the build fails by default.
In really old environments, this getopt definition with no arguments is
necessary (because the definition may change between environments).
However, this definition is now a cause of problems on modern environments.
A good news is, this definition is not always selected (e.g. if used by
binutils/*.c). This is because configuration scripts of binutils, gas,
gprof and ld tries to find known definition of getopt function is used and
defines HAVE_DECL_GETOPT macro. If this macro is defined when getopt.h is
included, a good form of getopt is used and Clang won't generate warnings.
This commit adds a modified portion of ld/configure.ac to find the known
getopt definition. If we could find one (and we *will* in most modern
environments), we don't need to rely on the deprecated definition.
My previous nm patch handled all cases but one -- if the user set NM in
the environment to a path which contained an option, libtool's nm
detection tries to run nm against a copy of nm with the options in it:
e.g. if NM was set to "nm --blargle", and nm was found in /usr/bin, the
test would try to run "/usr/bin/nm --blargle /usr/bin/nm --blargle".
This is unlikely to be desirable: in this case we should run
"/usr/bin/nm --blargle /usr/bin/nm".
Furthermore, as part of this nm has to detect when the passed-in $NM
contains a path, and in that case avoid doing a path search itself.
This too was thrown off if an option contained something that looked
like a path, e.g. NM="nm -B../prev-gcc"; libtool then tries to run
"nm -B../prev-gcc nm" which rarely works well (and indeed it looks
to see whether that nm exists, finds it doesn't, and wrongly concludes
that nm -p or whatever does not work).
Fix all of these by clipping all options (defined as everything
including and after the first " -") before deciding whether nm
contains a path (but not using the clipped value for anything else),
and then removing all options from the path-modified nm before
looking to see whether that nm existed.
NM=my-nm now does a path search and runs e.g.
/usr/bin/my-nm -B /usr/bin/my-nm
NM=/usr/bin/my-nm now avoids a path search and runs e.g.
/usr/bin/my-nm -B /usr/bin/my-nm
NM="my-nm -p../wombat" now does a path search and runs e.g.
/usr/bin/my-nm -p../wombat -B /usr/bin/my-nm
NM="../prev-binutils/new-nm -B../prev-gcc" now avoids a path search:
../prev-binutils/my-nm -B../prev-gcc -B ../prev-binutils/my-nm
This seems to be all combinations, including those used by GCC bootstrap
(which, before this commit, fails to bootstrap when configured
--with-build-config=bootstrap-lto, because the lto plugin is now using
--export-symbols-regex, which requires libtool to find a working nm,
while also using -B../prev-gcc to point at the lto plugin associated
with the GCC just built.)
Regenerate all affected configure scripts.
* libtool.m4 (LT_PATH_NM): Handle user-specified NM with
options, including options containing paths.
This was left in subdirs because of the dynamic cgen usage. However,
we can move this breakpoint call to runtime and let gdb detect whether
the symbol exists.
With commit 7a259895bb2d "sim: testsuite: expand arch specific
toolchain settings", trying to use out-of-tree ld and as at test-time
broke for the "primary target", like when testing a release-tarball.
Subsequent to that commit, all assembler tests without in-tree-built
tools FAIL, getting errors when trying to call
$(abs_builddir)/../gas/as-new. But, that isn't the actual culprint;
it's actually it's its immediate predecessor, commit 8996c21067373
"sim: testsuite: setup per-port toolchain settings for multitarget
build", which hardcodes in-tree-paths to those tools instead of
considering e.g. $(<X>_FOR_TARGET), the preferred overridable variable
for single-target builds, as set up by the toplevel Makefile.
This commit calls GCC_TARGET_TOOL (a deceptive name; gcc-specific
features aren't used) from toplev/config/acx.m4, somewhat like calls
in toplev/configure.ac but without the NCN_STRICT_CHECK_TARGET_TOOLS
step, for each X to find a value for $(<X>_FOR_TARGET). N.B.: in-tree
tools still override any ${target}-${tool} found in $PATH, i.e. only
previously broken builds are affected.
The variables $(<X>_FOR_TARGET) are usually overridden by the toplevel
Makefile to the same value or better, but has to be set here too, as
automake "wants" Makefiles to be self-contained (you get an error
pointing out that the variable may be empty). If it hadn't been for
that, SIM_AC_CHECK_TOOLCHAIN_FOR_PRIMARY_TARGET would not be needed.
This detail should only (positively) affect users invoking "make
check" in sim/ instead of "make check-sim" (or "make check") at the
toplevel. Now the output from "configure" matches the target tools
actually used by sim at test-time, for the "primary target".
Using $(CC) for "example-" targets CC_FOR_TARGET is not changed, as
that appears to be a deliberate special-case.
Note that all tools still have to be installed and present in
$PATH at configure-time to be properly used at test-time.
sim:
* m4/sim_ac_toolchain.m4 (SIM_AC_CHECK_TOOLCHAIN_FOR_PRIMARY_TARGET):
New defun.
(SIM_TOOLCHAIN_VARS): Call it using AC_REQUIRE, and use variables
AS_FOR_TARGET, LD_FOR_TARGET and CC_FOR_TARGET instead of hard-coded
values.
* Makefile.in, configure: Regenerate.
Gas does not support multitarget builds -- it still only supports
a single input & output format. ld is a bit better, but requires
manual flags to select the right output. This makes it impossible
to run the complete testsuite in a multitarget build.
To address this limitation, create a suite of FOR_TARGET variables
so these can be set to precompiled as & ld programs. It requires
a bit of setup ahead of time, but it's a one-time cost, and makes
running the full testsuite at once much easier.
