This commit adds a `ci/build.sh` script that checks that libc builds correctly
for some common configurations (`--no-default-features`, `default`,
`extra_traits`) on most targets supported by Rust since Rust 1.13.0 (the oldest
Rust version that libc supports).
The build matrix is refactored into two stages.
The first stage is called `tools-and-build-and-tier1` and it aims to discover
issues quickly by running the documentation and linter builds, as well as
checking that the library builds correctly on all targets in all supported
channels and "problematic" Rust versions; Rust versions adding major new
features like `repr(align)`, `union`, etc. This first stage also runs
libc-test for the tier-1 targets on linux and osx. These builds finish
quickly because no emulation is necessary.
The second stage is called `tier2` and it runs libc-test for all other targets
for which we are currently able to do so.
Closes#1229 .
Since these are defined in C as macros, they must be reimplemented in
libc as Rust functions. They're hard to get exactly right, and they
vary from platform to platform. The test builds custom C code that uses
the real macros, and compares its output to the Rust versions' output
for various inputs.
Skip the CMSG_NXTHDR test on sparc64 linux because it hits a Bus Error.
Issue #1239
Skip the entire cmsg test program on s390x because it dumps core
seemingly before the kernel finishes booting.
Issue #1240
Add various strcase* functions and getline
Adds
* `strcasestr`
* `strcasecmp`
* `strncasecmp`
* `getline`
I *think* they're semi-universal, but shall see what CI pops up...
`pthread_mutex_t` varies across architectures, in several ways:
- endianness alters the ordering of bytes, since the contents of the
struct are larger than 8-bit.
- its length varies.
- the location of the mutex kind (`PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE`,
`PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK` or `PTHREAD_MUTEX_ADAPTIVE_NP`) varies
between 32-bit and 64-bit: On 32-bit architectures, it is preceded by
three int/unsigned int, while on 64-bit architectures, it is preceded
by four of them.
These initializers are only available from <pthread.h> when _GNU_SOURCE
is defined.
Relax the cfg_if check in ci/style.rs to allow #[cfg(target_endian)]
tests.
The libc crate is used as a dependency of the Rust compiler. Its build
system passes `--cfg dox` to all crates when generating their
documentation. libc's documentation is generated when the build system
is asked to generate the compiler documentation because `cargo doc`
automatically documents all dependencies.
When the dox configuration option is enabled, libc disables its
dependency on the core crate and provides the necessary definitions
itself. The dox configuration option is meant for generating
documentation for a multitude of targets even if the core crate for that
target is not installed. However, when documenting the compiler, it's
not necessary to do that; we can just use core or std as usual.
This change is motivated by the changes made to the compiler in
rust-lang/rust#48171. With these changes, it's necessary to provide
implementations of the Clone and Copy traits for some primitive types in
the library that defines these traits (previously, these implementations
were provided by the compiler). Normally, these traits (and thus the
implementations) are provided by core, so any crate that uses
`#![no_core]` must now provide its own copy of the implementations.
Because libc doesn't provide its own copy of the implementations yet,
and because the compiler's build system passes `--cfg dox` to libc,
generating the documentation for the compiler fails when generating
documentation for libc. By renaming the configuration option, libc will
use core or std and will thus have the necessary definitions for the
documentation to be generated successfully.
