These allow one to non-destructively iterate over the set or clear bits
in a bitset. The motivation is that we have several code fragments
which iterate over a CPU set like this:
while ((cpu = CPU_FFS(&cpus)) != 0) {
cpu--;
CPU_CLR(cpu, &cpus);
<do something>;
}
This is slow since CPU_FFS begins the search at the beginning of the
bitset each time. On amd64 and arm64, CPU sets have size 256, so there
are four limbs in the bitset and we do a lot of unnecessary scanning.
A second problem is that this is destructive, so code which needs to
preserve the original set has to make a copy. In particular, we have
quite a few functions which take a cpuset_t parameter by value, meaning
that each call has to copy the 32 byte cpuset_t.
The new macros address both problems.

iflib now supports mapping each (TX,RX) queue pair to the same CPU
(default), to separate CPUs, or to a pair of physical and logical CPUs
that share the same L2 cache. The mapping mechanism supports unequal
numbers of TX and RX queues, with the excess queues always being
mapped to consecutive physical CPUs. When the platform cannot
distinguish between physical and logical CPUs, all are treated as
physical CPUs. See the comment on get_cpuid_for_queue() for the
entire matrix.
The following device-specific tunables influence the mapping process:
dev.<device>.<unit>.iflib.core_offset (existing)
dev.<device>.<unit>.iflib.separate_txrx (existing)
dev.<device>.<unit>.iflib.use_logical_cores (new)
The following new, read-only sysctls provide visibility of the mapping
results:
dev.<device>.<unit>.iflib.{t,r}xq<n>.cpu
When an iflib driver allocates TX softirqs without providing reference
RX IRQs, iflib now binds those TX softirqs to CPUs using the above
mapping mechanism (that is, treats them as if they were TX IRQs).
Previously, such bindings were left up to the grouptaskqueue code and
thus fell outside of the iflib CPU mapping strategy.

The _REENT_GLOBAL_STDIO_STREAMS was introduced by commit
668a4c8722 in 2017. Since then it was enabled by
default for RTEMS. Recently, the option was enabled for Cygwin which
previously used an alternative implementation to use global stdio streams.
In Newlib, the stdio streams are defined to thread-specific pointers
_reent::_stdin, _reent::_stdout and _reent::_stderr. If the option is disabled
(the default for most systems), then these pointers are initialized to
thread-specific FILE objects which use file descriptors 0, 1, and 2,
respectively. There are at least three problems with this:
(1) The thread-specific FILE objects are closed by _reclaim_reent(). This
leads to problems with language run-time libraries that provide wrappers to
the C/POSIX stdio streams (for example C++ and Ada), since they use the
thread-specific FILE objects of the initialization thread. In case the
initialization thread is deleted, then they use freed memory.
(2) Since thread-specific FILE objects are used with a common output device via
file descriptors 0, 1 and 2, the locking at FILE object level cannot ensure
atomicity of the output, e.g. a call to printf().
(3) There are resource managment issues, see:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/newlib/2022/019558.htmlhttps://bugs.linaro.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5841
This patch enables the _REENT_GLOBAL_STDIO_STREAMS behaviour for all Newlib
configurations and removes the option. This removes a couple of #ifdef blocks.
For _REENT_GLOBAL_STDIO_STREAMS, lock/unlock all FILE objects. In the
repository, this function is only used by Cygwin during process forks. Since
Cygwin enabled _REENT_GLOBAL_STDIO_STREAMS recently, without this fix no FILE
object at all was locked.
Do not initialize __sglue with the FILE objects of _GLOBAL_REENT to avoid a
double use in the !_REENT_SMALL and !_REENT_GLOBAL_STDIO_STREAMS configurations
which didn't use a thread-specific reentrancy structure.

Decouples the global file object list from the _GLOBAL_REENT

Replaced _fwalk_reent() with _fwalk_sglue(). The change adds an
extra __sglue object as a parameter, which will allow the passing
of a global __sglue object separate from the __sglue member of
struct _reent. The global __sglue object will be added in a
follow-on patch.
Define the configuration-dependent constant CLEANUP_FILE for use in
cleanup_stdio(). This will reduce duplicate code during the addition
of a dedicated stdio atexit handler in a follow-on patch.
Moved last remaining __sglue initializations from __sinit() to
__sfp(). The move better encapsulates access to __sglue and
facilitates its decoupling from struct _reent in a follow-on patch.
Remove __sinit_lock_acquire() and __sinit_lock_release(). Replace these with
__sfp_lock_acquire() and __sfp_lock_release(), respectively. This eliminates a
potential deadlock issue between __sinit() and __sfp(). Remove now unused
__sinit_recursive_mutex and __lock___sinit_recursive_mutex.
Added _REENT_INIT_SGLUE and _REENT_INIT_SGLUE_ZEROED macros
to initialize __sglue member of struct _reent. This allows
further simplification of __sinit() and facilitates the removal

in a follow-on patch.

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.
The recent makefile reorganization broke the amdgcn port by creating
duplicate __malloc_lock symbols. This patch fixes the problem by renaming
the malloc_support.c file to mlock.c, thus overriding the default symbol
properly. Actually, I'm not sure how this ever worked?
I've had this lying around for probably a year or two at this point.
It just changes all the instance of "errno" from a common symbol to an
extern. I can't offhand recall where the actual definition is, but it
certainly exists in the generic code.
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.
Integrate the old libm/test/ subdir into the main build. It hasn't
been used in a long time causing the code to rot a bit. I've fixed
some of those, but it still fails for many ports, so it's disabled
by default. People who want to take a closer look can run:
$ make libm/test/test
To help prevent people from missing running this script, integrate it
into the build via maintainer mode.
Also fix the inverted exit status to make this work correctly -- for
some reason, it exited 1 when it worked, and 0 when it failed.
Replace all of the individual autotool steps with a single autoreconf.
This simplifies the documentation greatly, and in the current system,
only takes ~10 seconds to regenerate everything.
Update the developer documentation to cover all the major components
of the current build system. Hopefully this is a fairly complete road
map to everything. I tried to include everything that I wish I knew
when I started hacking on this :P.
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.
Rather than define per-object rules in the Makefile, have small files
that define & include the right content. This simplifies the build
rules, and makes understanding the source a little easier (imo) as it
makes all the subdirs behave the same: you have 1 source file and it
produces 1 object. It's also about the same amount of boiler plate,
without having to define custom build rules that can fall out of sync.
We also realign the free & pvalloc definitions: common code puts these
in malloc.o & valloc.o respectively, not in free.o & pvalloc.o objects.
This will also be important as we merge the libc.a build into the top
dir since it relies on a single flat list of objects for overrides.
The mallopt symbol is defined in tiny-malloc.c, not mallocr.c, but
the Makefile in here tries to compile it out of the latter. This
leads to mallopt never being defined.
The build also creates mallinfo.o & mallopt.o & mallstats.o objects
to override common ones, but the common dir doesn't use these names.
Instead, it places these all in mstats.o.
So move the build define logic to a dedicated file and compile it
directly to make things a bit simpler while fixing the missing func
and aligning objects with the cmomon code.

Some awk implementations such as old versions of mawk do not support the
length() function. Use the return value of the POSIX split() function instead.
This file is a little confusing: it provides all of the mallocr logic,
but is compiled multiple times to produce a unique symbol each time.
For example, building mallocr.c with -DDEFINE_FREER produces freer.o
that only defines _free_r(). This is fine for most symbols, but it's
a little confusing when defining mallocr itself -- we produce a file
with the same symbol name, but we still need -DDEFINE_MALLOCR. In
order to move the logic from the build rules to source files, using
mallocr.c both as a multiplexer and for defining a single symbol is a
bit tricky. It's possible (if we add a lot of redundant preprocessor
checks to mallocr.c, or we add complicated build flags just for this
one files), but it's easier if we simply rename this to a dedicated
file. So let's do that.
We do this as a dedicated commit because the next one will create a
new mallocr.c file and git's automatic diff algorithms can handle
trivial renames, but it can't handle renames+creates in the same
commit.
Simplify the build system logic a bit by moving the mallocr.c ->
nano-mallocr.c redirection from the Makefile to the source files.
This allows for consistent object name usage regardless of the
configuration options used in case a machine dir wants to define
its own override.
Since we already set up _LIBC to indicate source files are building
for newlib, we don't need this malloc-specific symbol. Convert it
over to simplify the build a bit.
The current targ-include setup runs `cp` every header file it installs,
in serial. This can be a little noticeable on systems, so cleanup the
logic to rely on cp's ability to copy multiple files to a directory in
a single call.
We still need a check for empty directories with no headers (i.e. the
glob doesn't match anything), so add a helper variable to contain that
logic to reduce the boiler plate a little.
Rather than define per-object rules in the Makefile, have small files
that define & include the right content. This simplifies the build
rules, and makes understanding the source a little easier (imo) as it
makes all the subdirs behave the same: you have 1 source file and it
produces 1 object. It's also about the same amount of boiler plate,
without having to define custom build rules that can fall out of sync.
Some of these rules were already unnecessary as they were compiling a
single source file into the same named object w/out custom flags, and
Automake handles that for us completely.
This will also be important as we merge the libc.a build into the top
dir since it relies on a single flat list of objects for overrides.
Also take the opportunity to clean up the unnecessary header deps in
here. Automake provides dependency generation for free now.
Since POSIX cp requires copying a file to a directory without having
to specify the name explicitly, rely on that to avoid calling basename
on every source file.
We can also drop the stub `true` call if the -f test failed. The use
of `if` already takes care of that in POSIX shell.
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.
I split libg.a out into a sep target from libc.a for the main dir in
commit f2b053f49e ("newlib: separate out
libg from libc"), but missed the multilib dirs. That leads to an
uncommon parallel build failure:
- libc.a rule runs & finishes
- $(BUILD_MULTISUBDIR)/libc.a rule runs
-> failure due to libg.a not yet existing
- libg.a rule runs & finishes
Split the multilib libg rule out from libc too so it can depend on the
main libg directly and avoid this race.
Remove dependency on __sdidinit member of struct _reent to check
object initialization. Like __sdidinit, the __cleanup member of
struct _reent is initialized in the __sinit() function. Checking
initialization against __cleanup serves the same purpose and will
reduce overhead in the __sfp() function in a follow up patch.
The crt0.o was handled in a subdir-by-subdir basis: it would be compiled
in one (e.g. libc/sys/$arch/), then copied up one level (libc/sys/), then
copied up another (libc/) before finally being copied & installed in the
top newlib dir. The libc/sys/ copy was cleaned up, and then the top dir
was changed to copy it directly out of the libc/sys/$arch/ dir. But the
libc/sys/ copy to libc/ was left behind. Clean that up now too.
These headers aren't installed, so use "" includes instead of <> so
we don't search system header paths. This matches the style used
elsewhere in the tree for these local headers, and makes it work
w/out explicit -I flags (as needed with non-recursive make).
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.
Make this a separate target from libc so that we can migrate libc over
to automake more easily. Having it integrated into the libc target is
difficult to handle when using automake rules which expect a one-to-one
mapping between names & inputs.
When migrating the manual to the top-level, the include order was
sorted by name of the subdir. But this changed the chapter order
of the manual in the process. Change the sorting back to match
existing chapters and update the comments to explain.
Using xxx_LIBADD, xxx_DEPENDENCIES, and EXTRA_xxx_SOURCES is one way of
conditionally including files into a target. But it's meant more for the
cases where the variables added to LIBADD & DEPENDENCIES are constructed
via substitution (e.g. AC_SUBST) or other dynamic methods. With Automake
conditionals, then the much simpler form is to conditionally append to
the xxx_SOURCES variable and let Automake sort everything out.
Commit 8fa73a9f84 changed how fenv.c is
compiled wrt mips16 targets used the wrong variable to add fenv.o to
libm.a. Fix that thinko so it's included in the build again.
The top-level newlib dir already takes care of recursing into the
sys/xxx/include/ subdirs and installing any headers found, so the
rtems subdir doesn't need to do this itself.
Replace the custom build rules (which require copying & pasting from the
current Makefile) with small stub files. This allows us to drop the rules
entirely and let Automake provide everything.
These subdirs don't actually use anything from libm. The common dir
in particular only has 4 header files, and none are included here.
The xstormy16 code has a comment mentioning why this hack is here, but
it refers to code that was removed when its configure script was merged
up a level.
This is used in a bunch of places, but nowhere is it ever set, and
nowhere can I find any documentation, nor can I find any other project
using it. So delete the flags to simplify.
These targets don't actually cross-compile -- they try to pull some
objects out of the host's /lib/libc.a, /lib/libm.a, and /lib/crt0.o
directly and merge them into newlib's own libraries. This is hard
to keep working and impossible to test. Considering the vintage of
such targets, and gcc dropping them many many years ago, drop them
from newlib too. This will make cleaning up the build a lot easier.
The machine/{configure,Makefile} files exist only to fan out to the
specific machine/$arch/ subdir. We already have all that same info
in the phoenix/ dir itself, so by moving the recursive configure and
make calls into it, we can cut off this logic entirely and save the
overhead.
These were never added to the tree, and as we transition from autoconf
to automake, it really wants the latter subdirs to always exist. These
don't, so delete the logic.
The original cut for small arguments at |x|<2**-70 (copied from the
double version) produces that when computing nadj we get a subnormal
number for t*x and thus, the division of pi/subnormal will be INF and
the logarithm of it too, which is wrong as a result for lgammaf in this
range.
The proposed new limit seems to be safe and has been tested to
produce accurate results.

These look like they were just copied & pasted from common/Makefile.am.
The funcs in this dir are all stubs that don't actually call any math
or builtin functions, and a simple compile shows they produce identical
object code. So delete to simplify the build rules.
Correct the overflow limit in the variable o_threshold to be consistent
with the FLT_UWORD_LOG_MAX variable used by the internal implementation
of the expf algorithm itself.
The u_threshold variable has also been modified to be written in the
same format.
Note that this fix improves the situation but does not completely
correct the inconsistencies regarding the overflow and underflow limits
between the expf wrapper (wf_exp.c) and the expf algorithm itself
(ef_exp.c).
Currently these limits are different for the
_FLT_LARGEST_EXPONENT_IS_NORMAL and _FLT_NO_DENORMALS cases as well as
for the case where __OBSOLETE_MATH is not defined (only for the
underflow limit in this case).
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.
Make sure we depend on the right name of mkdoc all the time, and that
the rules that need it (e.g. .def files) depend on it.

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 only used by the i?86-pc-linux-gnu target which we've removed,
and even though it's using a "sys/linux/" dir to make it sound like it
only depends on the Linux kernel, it's actually tied to glibc APIs built
on top of Linux. Since the code relies on internal glibc APIs and has
been broken for some time, punt it all. If someone wants to bring it
back, they can try and actually keep the Linux-vs-glibc APIs separate.
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.
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.
This code is a bit more convoluted than it needs to be. GPR_SOURCES
is never set to anything, and the automake checks use negative logic
to add the SP & DP source files to dedicated variables that are only
expanded once. Get rid of the unused variable, use normal boolean
logic, and collapse the source settings into a single variable.
This allows building the libc & libm pages in parallel, and drops
the duplication in the subdirs with the chew/chapter settings.
The unused rules in Makefile.shared are left in place to minimize
noise in the change.
This doesn't migrate all the docs, just the libc's manual (pdf/info).
This is to show the basic form of migrating the chew files.
For subdirs that didn't have any docs, I've stripped their settings
for clarity. If someone wanted to suddenly add docs, they can add
the corresponding Makefile.inc files easily.
THe stdio subdir is actually required by the documentation. The
stdio/def is handled dynamically, but libc.texi always expects it
to be included, and fails if it isn't. So making it required when
building docs is safe.
The xdr subdir is handled dynamically, but it doesn't include any
docs, so the dynamic logic isn't (currently) adding any value. So
making it required when building docs is safe.
That leaves: iconv, stdio64, posix, and signal subdirs. The chapters
have a little disclaimer saying they are system-dependent, but even
then, imo having stable manuals regardless of the target is preferable,
and we can add more disclaimer language to these chapters if we want.
This doesn't touch the man page codepaths, just the info/pdf.
Let automake manage whether the objects are included in lib.a. This
fixes failures after to commit 71086e8b2d
("newlib: delete (most) redundant lib_a_CCASFLAGS=$(AM_CCASFLAGS)") due
to automake generating different set of implicit rules, and the code in
here assuming the names of the generated objects.
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.
This isn't strictly necessary, but it makes for much clearer logs as
to what the target is doing, and provides cache vars for anyone who
wants to force the test a different way, and it lets the build cache
its own results when rerunning config.status.
Since commit dcbff9eea7 ("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.
Restore the call to AC_NO_EXECUTABLES -- I naively assumed in commit
2e9aa5f56c ("newlib: update preprocessor
configure checks") that checking for a preprocessor would not involve
linking code. Unfortunately, autoconf will implicitly check that the
compiler "works" before allowing it to be used, and that involves a
link test, and that fails because newlib provides the C library which
is needed to pass a link test.
There is some code in NEWLIB_CONFIGURE specifically to help mitigate
these, but it's not kicking in here for some reason, so let's just add
the AC_NO_EXECUTABLES call back until we can unwind that custom logic.
Additionally, we have to call AC_PROG_CPP explicitly. This was being
invoked later on, but only in the use_libtool=yes codepath, and that
is almost never enabled.
This code snippet assumed it was only ever run in the top configure
script where srcdir would point to newlib/ which is parallel to the
winsup/ tree. This is incorrect for all of the subdir configure
scripts leading to bad -I flags in $(CC). Switch it over to the
new abs_newlib_basedir which should work in all subdirs.
