Programs are supposed to be able to define the __fpu_control variable,
overriding the library's version to cause the floating-point control
word to be set to the chosen value at startup.
This is broken for mips16 for static linking because the library's
__fpu_control variable is in the same object file as the helper
functions used by fpu_control.h for mips16, so test-fpucw-ieee-static
fails to link with multiple definitions of __fpu_control.
This patch fixes this by putting the helpers in a separate file rather
than overriding fpu_control.c. Tested for mips16 that this fixes the
link failure and the ABI tests still pass.
[BZ #18397]
* sysdeps/mips/mips32/fpu/fpu_control.c: Move to ....
* sysdeps/mips/mips32/fpu/fpucw-helpers.c: ... here. Include
<fpu_control.h> instead of <math/fpu_control.c>.
* sysdeps/mips/mips32/fpu/Makefile: New file.
I've moved the MIPS port from ports to the main sysdeps hierarchy.
Beyond the README update, the move of the files was simply
git mv ports/sysdeps/mips sysdeps/mips
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/mips sysdeps/unix/mips
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips
and in addition to the ChangeLog entries here, I put a note at the top
of ports/ChangeLog.mips similar to those in other files.
Tested that disassembly of installed shared libraries for mips is the
same before and after this patch (except for ld.so where paths in
assertions are involved, as for arm).
* sysdeps/mips: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/mips.
* sysdeps/unix/mips: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/unix/mips.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips: Move directory from
ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips.
* README: Update listing for mips-*-linux-gnu and
mips64-*-linux-gnu.
* sysdeps/mips: Move directory to ../sysdeps/mips.
* sysdeps/unix/mips: Move directory to ../sysdeps/unix/mips.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips: Move directory to
../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips.
