Avoid a recursive make to speed things up a bit.
A fr30-elf build shows installed objects & libs produce same code.
A lot of code seems like it hasn't been migrated, but that's because
it's all disabled/unused (i.e. all the test & mon code). It looks
like a lot of copy & paste holdovers from the original port.
gcc-14 will default to c99 and as a result a fair amount of old code in newlib
(particularly libgloss) is failing to build. I don't offhand know how many
patches will be necessary to fix the various failures. I'll just pick them off
one by one from my tree.
This particular patch works around the return-mismatch problem syscalls.c for
fr30.
That file is a bit odd in that most functions are declared as returning an
integer, but the implementations look like:
> int
> _read (file, ptr, len)
> int file;
> char * ptr;
> int len;
> {
> asm ("ldi:8 %0, r0" :: "i" (SYS_read) : "r0");
> asm ("int #10");
>
> return;
> }
Note the lack of a value on the "return" statement. The assumption is that the
interrupt handler implementing syscalls will put the return value into the
proper register, so falling off the end of the C function or returning with no
value works in the expected way. It's not good code, but it probably works.
Working from that assumption I decided to just use a pragma to disable the
upgraded diagnostic from GCC -- essentially preserving existing behavior.
This is the only fr30 specific issue that needs to be resolved and the only
issue (so far) I've seen of this specific nature.
Depending on the processing order of rules when installing in parallel,
these install rules might be processed before some other rule happens
to create the respective dirs. Make sure each one creates the needed
dirs before installing into them.
For about half the ports, we don't need a subdir configure script.
They're using the config/default.m[ht] rules, and they aren't doing
any unique configure tests, so they exist just to pass top-level
settings down to create the arch Makefile. We can just as easily
do that from the top-level Mkaefile directly and skip configure.
Most of the remaining configure scripts could be migrated up to
the top-level too, but that would require care in each subdir.
So let's be lazy and put that off to another day.
The newlib & libgloss dirs are already generated using autoconf-2.69.
To avoid merging new code and/or accidental regeneration using diff
versions, leverage config/override.m4 to pin to 2.69 exactly. This
matches what gcc/binutils/gdb are already doing.
The README file already says to use autoconf-2.69.
To accomplish this, it's just as simple as adding -I flags to the
top-level config/ dir when running aclocal. This is because the
override.m4 file overrides AC_INIT to first require the specific
autoconf version before calling the real AC_INIT.
In order to transition to automake, we have to use hardcoded paths in
the AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR macro call (since automake evaluates the path
itself, and doesn't expand vars), so simplify all the calls here.
Regenerate the files using automake-1.15 & autoconf-2.69 to match the
binutils/gdb/gcc projects. Ran:
libgloss $ find -name configure.ac -printf '%h\n' | while read d; do
(cd $d; export WANT_AUTOCONF=2.69 WANT_AUTOMAKE=1.15;
aclocal-1.15 -I.. && autoconf-2.69); done
