Conformance of the GNU libc with various standards
==================================================
The GNU libc is designed to be conformant with existing standard as
far as possible. To ensure this I've run various tests. The results
are presented here.
Open Group's hdrchk
-------------------
The hdrchk test suite is available from the Open Group at
ftp://ftp.rdg.opengroup.org/pub/unsupported/stdtools/hdrchk/
I've last run the suite on 2000-08-13 on a Linux/ix86 system with the
following results [*]:
FIPS No reported problems
POSIX90 No reported problems
XPG3 No reported problems
XPG4 No reported problems
POSIX96 Same as for UNIX98 (see below).
UNIX98 The message queue implementation is missing:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
/****** <mqueue.h> - Missing include file ******/
/****** Start of Definitions for file mqueue.h ******/
extern int mq_close();
extern int mq_getattr();
extern int mq_notify();
extern mqd_t mq_open();
extern ssize_t mq_receive();
extern int mq_send();
extern int mq_setattr();
extern int mq_unlink();
typedef <type> mqd_t;
struct mq_attr { <members> };
struct sigevent { <members> };
/****** End of Definitions for file mqueue.h ******/
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[*] Since the scripts are not clever enough for the way gcc handles
include files (namely, putting some of them in gcc-local directory) I
copied over the iso646.h, float.h, and stddef.h headers and ignored the
problems resulting from the splitted limits.h file).
