GCC 4.7 added support for ARM TLS descriptors. The binutils support
is present in binutils 2.22. Thus, this patch removes the associated
configure test as obsolete (leaving Makefile conditionals, as NaCl
sets have-arm-tls-desc = no in its sysdeps fragment).
Tested for ARM that installed shared libraries are unchanged by the
patch.
* sysdeps/arm/configure.ac (libc_cv_arm_tls_desc): Remove
configure test.
* sysdeps/arm/configure: Regenerated.
* sysdeps/arm/Makefile [!have-arm-tls-desc] (have-arm-tls-desc):
Define variable if not already defined.
This patch removes configure tests for assembler CFI support (and
thereby eliminates an architecture-specific case in the main
configure.ac), instead assuming that support is present
unconditionally.
The main test was added in 2003 around the time CFI support was added
to the assembler. cfi_personality and cfi_lsda support were added to
the assembler in 2006. cfi_sections support was added in 2009, a few
weeks before binutils 2.20 was released; it's in 2.20, the minimum
supported version, so even that configure test is obsolete.
Tested x86_64 that the installed shared libraries are unchanged by
this patch.
* configure.ac (libc_cv_asm_cfi_directives): Remove configure
test.
* configure: Regenerated.
* config.h.in (HAVE_ASM_CFI_DIRECTIVES): Remove macro undefine.
* sysdeps/arm/configure.ac (libc_cv_asm_cfi_directive_sections):
Remove configure test.
* sysdeps/arm/configure: Regenerated.
* sysdeps/nptl/configure.ac: Do not check
libc_cv_asm_cfi_directives.
* sysdeps/nptl/configure: Regenerated.
* sysdeps/x86_64/nptl/configure.ac: Remove file.
* sysdeps/x86_64/nptl/configure: Remove generated file.
* b/sysdeps/generic/sysdep.h [HAVE_ASM_CFI_DIRECTIVES]: Make code
unconditional.
[!HAVE_ASM_CFI_DIRECTIVES]: Remove conditional code.
This fixes the calculation of R_ARM_TLS_DESC relocations for lazy global
symbol references, i.e. created with `-z lazy' in effect with the static
linker, where immediate resolution is requested with LD_BIND_NOW.
I've moved the ARM port from ports to the main sysdeps hierarchy.
Beyond the README update, the move of the files was simply
git mv ports/sysdeps/arm sysdeps/arm
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/arm sysdeps/unix/arm
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm
and in addition to the ChangeLog entries here, I put a note at the top
of ports/ChangeLog.arm similar to that at the top of
ChangeLog.powerpc. There is deliberately no NEWS change, as I think
it makes the most sense to put in a general note above all ports
having moved if we can achieve that for 2.20.
Tested that disassembly of installed shared libraries for arm is the
same before and after this patch, except for data (not instructions)
in ld.so (there are assertions in sysdeps/arm/dl-machine.h, and the
path by which that file is found, and so by which it appears in the
assertion message, changes as a result of the move).
* sysdeps/arm: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/arm.
* sysdeps/unix/arm: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/unix/arm.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm: Move directory from
ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm.
* README: Update listing for arm-*-linux-gnueabi.
ports/ChangeLog.arm:
* sysdeps/arm: Move directory to ../sysdeps/arm.
* sysdeps/unix/arm: Move directory to ../sysdeps.arm.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm: Move directory to
../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm.
