Normally, the simulator is notified of absolute pathnames by the
_dl_load_hook hook. However, when a relative pathname is used, the
simulator may not know that the relative path matches a path that
it could figure out in the file system that it has access to.
Instead we provide a simplified version of the realpath function
so we can pass a plausible absolute pathname to the simulator.
Since we're now doing more work at object load time, we also add
a guard so we do no work at all if we're not running on the simulator.
- Override <memcopy.h> so we use full 8-byte word copies on tilegx32
for memmove, then use op_t in memcpy instead of the previous
locally-defined word_t just to avoid proliferating identical types.
- Fix bug in memcpy prefetch that caused us to never prefetch past
the first cache line.
- Optimize misaligned memcpy by inlining _wordcopy_fwd_dest_aligned
instead of just doing a dumb word-at-a-time copy.
- Make memcpy safe for forward copies by doing all the loads from
a given cache line prior to doing a wh64 (cache line zero-fill)
on the destination. Remove now-redundant src == dst check.
- Copy and optimize the generic wordcopy.c routines to use the tile
"double align" instruction instead of the MERGE macro; to avoid
offset addressing mode (which tile doesn't have) by rewriting the
pointer math to load and store with a zero index; and to use
post-increment addresses in the inner loops to improve scheduling.
Since the FUTEX_WAIT operation takes a relative timeout, the
pthread_cond_timedwait and other timed function implementations have
to get a relative timeout from the absolute timeout parameter it gets
before it makes the futex syscall. This value is then converted back
into an absolute timeout within the kernel. This is a waste and has
hence been improved upon by a FUTEX_WAIT_BITSET operation (OR'd with
FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME to make the kernel use the realtime clock instead
of the default monotonic clock). This was implemented only in the x86
and sh assembly code and not in the C code. This patch implements
support for FUTEX_WAIT_BITSET whenever available (since linux-2.6.29)
for s390 and powerpc.
Adapts __ppc_get_timebase to the upcoming GCC 4.8 that provides
__builtin_ppc_get_timebase. Building applicationns with previous
versions of GCC will continue to use the internal implementation.
