Library Maintenance
*******************
How to Install the GNU C Library
================================
Installation of the GNU C library is relatively simple, but usually
requires several GNU tools to be installed already.
To configure the GNU C library for your system, run the shell script
`configure' with `sh'. Use an argument which is the conventional GNU
name for your system configuration--for example, `sparc-sun-sunos4.1',
for a Sun 4 running SunOS 4.1. *Note Installation:
(gcc.info)Installation, for a full description of standard GNU
configuration names. If you omit the configuration name, `configure'
will try to guess one for you by inspecting the system it is running
on. It may or may not be able to come up with a guess, and the its
guess might be wrong. `configure' will tell you the canonical name of
the chosen configuration before proceeding.
Here are some options that you should specify (if appropriate) when
you run `configure':
`--with-gnu-ld'
Use this option if you plan to use GNU `ld' to link programs with
the GNU C Library. (We strongly recommend that you do.) This
option enables use of features that exist only in GNU `ld'; so if
you configure for GNU `ld' you must use GNU `ld' *every time* you
link with the GNU C Library, and when building it.
`--with-gnu-as'
Use this option if you plan to use the GNU assembler, `gas', when
building the GNU C Library. On some systems, the library may not
build properly if you do *not* use `gas'.
`--with-gnu-binutils'
This option implies both `--with-gnu-ld' and `--with-gnu-as'. On
systems where GNU tools are the system tools, there is no need to
specify this option. These include GNU, GNU/Linux, and free BSD
systems.
`--without-fp'
`--nfp'
Use this option if your computer lacks hardware floating-point
support.
`--prefix=DIRECTORY'
Install machine-independent data files in subdirectories of
`DIRECTORY'. (You can also set this in `configparms'; see below.)
`--exec-prefix=DIRECTORY'
Install the library and other machine-dependent files in
subdirectories of `DIRECTORY'. (You can also set this in
`configparms'; see below.)
`--enable-shared'
`--disable-shared'
Enable or disable building of an ELF shared library on systems that
support it. The default is to build the shared library on systems
using ELF when the GNU `binutils' are available.
`--enable-profile'
`--disable-profile'
Enable or disable building of the profiled C library, `-lc_p'. The
default is to build the profiled library. You may wish to disable
it if you don't plan to do profiling, because it doubles the build
time of compiling just the unprofiled static library.
`--enable-omitfp'
Enable building a highly-optimized but possibly undebuggable
static C library. This causes the normal static and shared (if
enabled) C libraries to be compiled with maximal optimization,
including the `-fomit-frame-pointer' switch that makes debugging
impossible on many machines, and without debugging information
(which makes the binaries substantially smaller). An additional
static library is compiled with no optimization and full debugging
information, and installed as `-lc_g'.
`--enable-bounded'
`--disable-bounded'
Enable or disable building of the C library with support for bounded
pointers. To do this one need the enhanced version of the GNU CC
with can generate code for bounded pointers. This version of the
C library is necessary to run code which is also compiled using the
enhanced gcc for debugging purposes.
There are two more options:
`--with-gmp'
`--with-gettext'
These options are not of much use for the normal installer of the
GNU libc. Only maintainers need this to get automatic updates of
the files from these packages in the GNU C library source tree.
The simplest way to run `configure' is to do it in the directory
that contains the library sources. This prepares to build the library
in that very directory.
You can prepare to build the library in some other directory by going
to that other directory to run `configure'. In order to run configure,
you will have to specify a directory for it, like this:
mkdir sun4
cd sun4
../configure sparc-sun-sunos4.1
`configure' looks for the sources in whatever directory you specified
for finding `configure' itself. It does not matter where in the file
system the source and build directories are--as long as you specify the
source directory when you run `configure', you will get the proper
results.
This feature lets you keep sources and binaries in different
directories, and that makes it easy to build the library for several
different machines from the same set of sources. Simply create a build
directory for each target machine, and run `configure' in that
directory specifying the target machine's configuration name.
The library has a number of special-purpose configuration parameters.
These are defined in the file `Makeconfig'; see the comments in that
file for the details.
But don't edit the file `Makeconfig' yourself--instead, create a
file `configparms' in the directory where you are building the library,
and define in that file the parameters you want to specify.
`configparms' should *not* be an edited copy of `Makeconfig'; specify
only the parameters that you want to override. To see how to set these
parameters, find the section of `Makeconfig' that says "These are the
configuration variables." Then for each parameter that you want to
change, copy the definition from `Makeconfig' to your new `configparms'
file, and change the value as appropriate for your system.
It is easy to configure the GNU C library for cross-compilation by
setting a few variables in `configparms'. Set `CC' to the
cross-compiler for the target you configured the library for; it is
important to use this same `CC' value when running `configure', like
this: `CC=TARGET-gcc configure TARGET'. Set `BUILD_CC' to the compiler
to use for for programs run on the build system as part of compiling
the library. You may need to set `AR' and `RANLIB' to cross-compiling
versions of `ar' and `ranlib' if the native tools are not configured to
work with object files for the target you configured for.
Some of the machine-dependent code for some machines uses extensions
in the GNU C compiler, so you may need to compile the library with GCC.
(In fact, all of the existing complete ports require GCC.)
To build the library and related programs, type `make'. This will
produce a lot of output, some of which may look like errors from `make'
(but isn't). Look for error messages from `make' containing `***'.
Those indicate that something is really wrong.
To build and run some test programs which exercise some of the
library facilities, type `make check'. This will produce several files
with names like `PROGRAM.out'.
To format the `GNU C Library Reference Manual' for printing, type
`make dvi'.
To install the library and its header files, and the Info files of
the manual, type `make install'. This will build things if necessary,
before installing them.
Recommended Tools to Install the GNU C Library
----------------------------------------------
We recommend installing the following GNU tools before attempting to
build the GNU C library:
* `make' 3.75
You need the latest version of GNU `make'. Modifying the GNU C
Library to work with other `make' programs would be so hard that we
recommend you port GNU `make' instead. *Really.* We recommend
version GNU `make' version 3.75 or later.
* GCC 2.7.2.1
On most platforms, the GNU C library can only be compiled with the
GNU C compiler. We recommend GCC version 2.7.2 or later; earlier
versions may have problems.
* `binutils' 2.7
Using the GNU `binutils' (assembler, linker, and related tools) is
preferable when possible, and they are required to build an ELF
shared C library. We recommend `binutils' version 2.7 or later;
earlier versions are known to have problems or to not support all
architectures.
Supported Configurations
------------------------
The GNU C Library currently supports configurations that match the
following patterns:
alpha-ANYTHING-linux
alpha-ANYTHING-linuxecoff
iX86-ANYTHING-gnu
iX86-ANYTHING-linux
m68k-ANYTHING-linux
mips-ANYTHING-linux
sparc-ANYTHING-linux
powerpc-ANYTHING-linux
Former versions of this library used to support the following
configurations but the current status is unknown:
alpha-dec-osf1
iX86-ANYTHING-bsd4.3
iX86-ANYTHING-isc2.2
iX86-ANYTHING-isc3.N
iX86-ANYTHING-sco3.2
iX86-ANYTHING-sco3.2v4
iX86-ANYTHING-sysv
iX86-ANYTHING-sysv4
iX86-force_cpu386-none
iX86-sequent-bsd
i960-nindy960-none
m68k-hp-bsd4.3
m68k-mvme135-none
m68k-mvme136-none
m68k-sony-newsos3
m68k-sony-newsos4
m68k-sun-sunos4.N
mips-dec-ultrix4.N
mips-sgi-irix4.N
sparc-sun-solaris2.N
sparc-sun-sunos4.N
Each case of `iX86' can be `i386', `i486', `i586', or `i686'. All
of those configurations produce a library that can run on any of these
processors. The library will be optimized for the specified processor,
but will not use instructions not available on all of them.
While no other configurations are supported, there are handy aliases
for these few. (These aliases work in other GNU software as well.)

Reporting Bugs
==============
There are probably bugs in the GNU C library. There are certainly
errors and omissions in this manual. If you report them, they will get
fixed. If you don't, no one will ever know about them and they will
remain unfixed for all eternity, if not longer.
To report a bug, first you must find it. Hopefully, this will be the
hard part. Once you've found a bug, make sure it's really a bug. A
good way to do this is to see if the GNU C library behaves the same way
some other C library does. If so, probably you are wrong and the
libraries are right (but not necessarily). If not, one of the libraries
is probably wrong.
Once you're sure you've found a bug, try to narrow it down to the
smallest test case that reproduces the problem. In the case of a C
library, you really only need to narrow it down to one library function
call, if possible. This should not be too difficult.
The final step when you have a simple test case is to report the bug.
When reporting a bug, send your test case, the results you got, the
results you expected, what you think the problem might be (if you've
thought of anything), your system type, and the version of the GNU C
library which you are using. Also include the files `config.status'
and `config.make' which are created by running `configure'; they will
be in whatever directory was current when you ran `configure'.
If you think you have found some way in which the GNU C library does
not conform to the ANSI and POSIX standards (*note Standards and
Portability::.), that is definitely a bug. Report it!
Send bug reports to the Internet address `bug-glibc@prep.ai.mit.edu'
or the UUCP path `mit-eddie!prep.ai.mit.edu!bug-glibc'. If you have
other problems with installation or use, please report those as well.
If you are not sure how a function should behave, and this manual
doesn't tell you, that's a bug in the manual. Report that too! If the
function's behavior disagrees with the manual, then either the library
or the manual has a bug, so report the disagreement. If you find any
errors or omissions in this manual, please report them to the Internet
address `bug-glibc-manual@prep.ai.mit.edu' or the UUCP path
`mit-eddie!prep.ai.mit.edu!bug-glibc-manual'.
Adding New Functions
====================
The process of building the library is driven by the makefiles, which
make heavy use of special features of GNU `make'. The makefiles are
very complex, and you probably don't want to try to understand them.
But what they do is fairly straightforward, and only requires that you
define a few variables in the right places.
The library sources are divided into subdirectories, grouped by
topic.
The `string' subdirectory has all the string-manipulation functions,
`math' has all the mathematical functions, etc.
Each subdirectory contains a simple makefile, called `Makefile',
which defines a few `make' variables and then includes the global
makefile `Rules' with a line like:
include ../Rules
The basic variables that a subdirectory makefile defines are:
`subdir'
The name of the subdirectory, for example `stdio'. This variable
*must* be defined.
`headers'
The names of the header files in this section of the library, such
as `stdio.h'.
`routines'
`aux'
The names of the modules (source files) in this section of the
library. These should be simple names, such as `strlen' (rather
than complete file names, such as `strlen.c'). Use `routines' for
modules that define functions in the library, and `aux' for
auxiliary modules containing things like data definitions. But the
values of `routines' and `aux' are just concatenated, so there
really is no practical difference.
`tests'
The names of test programs for this section of the library. These
should be simple names, such as `tester' (rather than complete file
names, such as `tester.c'). `make tests' will build and run all
the test programs. If a test program needs input, put the test
data in a file called `TEST-PROGRAM.input'; it will be given to
the test program on its standard input. If a test program wants
to be run with arguments, put the arguments (all on a single line)
in a file called `TEST-PROGRAM.args'. Test programs should exit
with zero status when the test passes, and nonzero status when the
test indicates a bug in the library or error in building.
`others'
The names of "other" programs associated with this section of the
library. These are programs which are not tests per se, but are
other small programs included with the library. They are built by
`make others'.
`install-lib'
`install-data'
`install'
Files to be installed by `make install'. Files listed in
`install-lib' are installed in the directory specified by `libdir'
in `configparms' or `Makeconfig' (*note Installation::.). Files
listed in `install-data' are installed in the directory specified
by `datadir' in `configparms' or `Makeconfig'. Files listed in
`install' are installed in the directory specified by `bindir' in
`configparms' or `Makeconfig'.
`distribute'
Other files from this subdirectory which should be put into a
distribution tar file. You need not list here the makefile itself
or the source and header files listed in the other standard
variables. Only define `distribute' if there are files used in an
unusual way that should go into the distribution.
`generated'
Files which are generated by `Makefile' in this subdirectory.
These files will be removed by `make clean', and they will never
go into a distribution.
`extra-objs'
Extra object files which are built by `Makefile' in this
subdirectory. This should be a list of file names like `foo.o';
the files will actually be found in whatever directory object
files are being built in. These files will be removed by
`make clean'. This variable is used for secondary object files
needed to build `others' or `tests'.
Porting the GNU C Library
=========================
The GNU C library is written to be easily portable to a variety of
machines and operating systems. Machine- and operating system-dependent
functions are well separated to make it easy to add implementations for
new machines or operating systems. This section describes the layout of
the library source tree and explains the mechanisms used to select
machine-dependent code to use.
All the machine-dependent and operating system-dependent files in the
library are in the subdirectory `sysdeps' under the top-level library
source directory. This directory contains a hierarchy of
subdirectories (*note Hierarchy Conventions::.).
Each subdirectory of `sysdeps' contains source files for a
particular machine or operating system, or for a class of machine or
operating system (for example, systems by a particular vendor, or all
machines that use IEEE 754 floating-point format). A configuration
specifies an ordered list of these subdirectories. Each subdirectory
implicitly appends its parent directory to the list. For example,
specifying the list `unix/bsd/vax' is equivalent to specifying the list
`unix/bsd/vax unix/bsd unix'. A subdirectory can also specify that it
implies other subdirectories which are not directly above it in the
directory hierarchy. If the file `Implies' exists in a subdirectory,
it lists other subdirectories of `sysdeps' which are appended to the
list, appearing after the subdirectory containing the `Implies' file.
Lines in an `Implies' file that begin with a `#' character are ignored
as comments. For example, `unix/bsd/Implies' contains:
# BSD has Internet-related things.
unix/inet
and `unix/Implies' contains:
posix
So the final list is `unix/bsd/vax unix/bsd unix/inet unix posix'.
`sysdeps' has two "special" subdirectories, called `generic' and
`stub'. These two are always implicitly appended to the list of
subdirectories (in that order), so you needn't put them in an `Implies'
file, and you should not create any subdirectories under them intended
to be new specific categories. `generic' is for things that can be
implemented in machine-independent C, using only other
machine-independent functions in the C library. `stub' is for "stub"
versions of functions which cannot be implemented on a particular
machine or operating system. The stub functions always return an
error, and set `errno' to `ENOSYS' (Function not implemented). *Note
Error Reporting::.
A source file is known to be system-dependent by its having a
version in `generic' or `stub'; every generally-available function whose
implementation is system-dependent in should have either a generic or
stub implementation (there is no point in having both). Some rare
functions are only useful on specific systems and aren't defined at all
on others; these do not appear anywhere in the system-independent
source code or makefiles (including the `generic' and `stub'
directories), only in the system-dependent `Makefile' in the specific
system's subdirectory.
If you come across a file that is in one of the main source
directories (`string', `stdio', etc.), and you want to write a machine-
or operating system-dependent version of it, move the file into
`sysdeps/generic' and write your new implementation in the appropriate
system-specific subdirectory. Note that if a file is to be
system-dependent, it *must not* appear in one of the main source
directories.
There are a few special files that may exist in each subdirectory of
`sysdeps':
`Makefile'
A makefile for this machine or operating system, or class of
machine or operating system. This file is included by the library
makefile `Makerules', which is used by the top-level makefile and
the subdirectory makefiles. It can change the variables set in the
including makefile or add new rules. It can use GNU `make'
conditional directives based on the variable `subdir' (see above)
to select different sets of variables and rules for different
sections of the library. It can also set the `make' variable
`sysdep-routines', to specify extra modules to be included in the
library. You should use `sysdep-routines' rather than adding
modules to `routines' because the latter is used in determining
what to distribute for each subdirectory of the main source tree.
Each makefile in a subdirectory in the ordered list of
subdirectories to be searched is included in order. Since several
system-dependent makefiles may be included, each should append to
`sysdep-routines' rather than simply setting it:
sysdep-routines := $(sysdep-routines) foo bar
`Subdirs'
This file contains the names of new whole subdirectories under the
top-level library source tree that should be included for this
system. These subdirectories are treated just like the
system-independent subdirectories in the library source tree, such
as `stdio' and `math'.
Use this when there are completely new sets of functions and header
files that should go into the library for the system this
subdirectory of `sysdeps' implements. For example,
`sysdeps/unix/inet/Subdirs' contains `inet'; the `inet' directory
contains various network-oriented operations which only make sense
to put in the library on systems that support the Internet.
`Dist'
This file contains the names of files (relative to the
subdirectory of `sysdeps' in which it appears) which should be
included in the distribution. List any new files used by rules in
the `Makefile' in the same directory, or header files used by the
source files in that directory. You don't need to list files that
are implementations (either C or assembly source) of routines
whose names are given in the machine-independent makefiles in the
main source tree.
`configure'
This file is a shell script fragment to be run at configuration
time. The top-level `configure' script uses the shell `.' command
to read the `configure' file in each system-dependent directory
chosen, in order. The `configure' files are often generated from
`configure.in' files using Autoconf.
A system-dependent `configure' script will usually add things to
the shell variables `DEFS' and `config_vars'; see the top-level
`configure' script for details. The script can check for
`--with-PACKAGE' options that were passed to the top-level
`configure'. For an option `--with-PACKAGE=VALUE' `configure'
sets the shell variable `with_PACKAGE' (with any dashes in PACKAGE
converted to underscores) to VALUE; if the option is just
`--with-PACKAGE' (no argument), then it sets `with_PACKAGE' to
`yes'.
`configure.in'
This file is an Autoconf input fragment to be processed into the
file `configure' in this subdirectory. *Note Introduction:
(autoconf.info)Introduction, for a description of Autoconf. You
should write either `configure' or `configure.in', but not both.
The first line of `configure.in' should invoke the `m4' macro
`GLIBC_PROVIDES'. This macro does several `AC_PROVIDE' calls for
Autoconf macros which are used by the top-level `configure'
script; without this, those macros might be invoked again
unnecessarily by Autoconf.
That is the general system for how system-dependencies are isolated.
Layout of the `sysdeps' Directory Hierarchy
-------------------------------------------
A GNU configuration name has three parts: the CPU type, the
manufacturer's name, and the operating system. `configure' uses these
to pick the list of system-dependent directories to look for. If the
`--nfp' option is *not* passed to `configure', the directory
`MACHINE/fpu' is also used. The operating system often has a "base
operating system"; for example, if the operating system is `sunos4.1',
the base operating system is `unix/bsd'. The algorithm used to pick
the list of directories is simple: `configure' makes a list of the base
operating system, manufacturer, CPU type, and operating system, in that
order. It then concatenates all these together with slashes in
between, to produce a directory name; for example, the configuration
`sparc-sun-sunos4.1' results in `unix/bsd/sun/sparc/sunos4.1'.
`configure' then tries removing each element of the list in turn, so
`unix/bsd/sparc' and `sun/sparc' are also tried, among others. Since
the precise version number of the operating system is often not
important, and it would be very inconvenient, for example, to have
identical `sunos4.1.1' and `sunos4.1.2' directories, `configure' tries
successively less specific operating system names by removing trailing
suffixes starting with a period.
As an example, here is the complete list of directories that would be
tried for the configuration `sparc-sun-sunos4.1' (without the `--nfp'
option):
sparc/fpu
unix/bsd/sun/sunos4.1/sparc
unix/bsd/sun/sunos4.1
unix/bsd/sun/sunos4/sparc
unix/bsd/sun/sunos4
unix/bsd/sun/sunos/sparc
unix/bsd/sun/sunos
unix/bsd/sun/sparc

Different machine architectures are conventionally subdirectories at
the top level of the `sysdeps' directory tree. For example,
`sysdeps/sparc' and `sysdeps/m68k'. These contain files specific to
those machine architectures, but not specific to any particular
operating system. There might be subdirectories for specializations of
those architectures, such as `sysdeps/m68k/68020'. Code which is
specific to the floating-point coprocessor used with a particular
machine should go in `sysdeps/MACHINE/fpu'.
There are a few directories at the top level of the `sysdeps'
hierarchy that are not for particular machine architectures.
`generic'
`stub'
As described above (*note Porting::.), these are the two
subdirectories that every configuration implicitly uses after all
others.
`ieee754'
This directory is for code using the IEEE 754 floating-point
format, where the C type `float' is IEEE 754 single-precision
format, and `double' is IEEE 754 double-precision format. Usually
this directory is referred to in the `Implies' file in a machine
architecture-specific directory, such as `m68k/Implies'.
`posix'
This directory contains implementations of things in the library in
terms of POSIX.1 functions. This includes some of the POSIX.1
functions themselves. Of course, POSIX.1 cannot be completely
implemented in terms of itself, so a configuration using just
`posix' cannot be complete.
`unix'
This is the directory for Unix-like things. *Note Porting to
Unix::. `unix' implies `posix'. There are some special-purpose
subdirectories of `unix':
`unix/common'
This directory is for things common to both BSD and System V
release 4. Both `unix/bsd' and `unix/sysv/sysv4' imply
`unix/common'.
`unix/inet'
This directory is for `socket' and related functions on Unix
systems. The `inet' top-level subdirectory is enabled by
`unix/inet/Subdirs'. `unix/common' implies `unix/inet'.
`mach'
This is the directory for things based on the Mach microkernel
from CMU (including the GNU operating system). Other basic
operating systems (VMS, for example) would have their own
directories at the top level of the `sysdeps' hierarchy, parallel
to `unix' and `mach'.
Porting the GNU C Library to Unix Systems
-----------------------------------------
Most Unix systems are fundamentally very similar. There are
variations between different machines, and variations in what
facilities are provided by the kernel. But the interface to the
operating system facilities is, for the most part, pretty uniform and
simple.
The code for Unix systems is in the directory `unix', at the top
level of the `sysdeps' hierarchy. This directory contains
subdirectories (and subdirectory trees) for various Unix variants.
The functions which are system calls in most Unix systems are
automatically generated from the `syscalls.list' files for the appropriate
archirecture. The format of the syscalls.list files is quite easy: only
a few informations are necessary line the system call name, the number of
arguments and such. The files are run through the C preprocessor.
These files all use a set of macros that should be defined in
`sysdep.h'. The `sysdep.h' file in `sysdeps/unix' partially defines
them; a `sysdep.h' file in another directory must finish defining them
for the particular machine and operating system variant. See
`sysdeps/unix/sysdep.h' and the machine-specific `sysdep.h'
implementations to see what these macros are and what they should do.
The system-specific makefile for the `unix' directory (that is, the
file `sysdeps/unix/Makefile') gives rules to generate several files
from the Unix system you are building the library on (which is assumed
to be the target system you are building the library *for*). All the
generated files are put in the directory where the object files are
kept; they should not affect the source tree itself. The files
generated are `ioctls.h', `errnos.h', `sys/param.h', and `errlist.c'
(for the `stdio' section of the library).

Microsystems, as modified by J.T. Conklin, Ian Lance Taylor,
Ulrich Drepper, Andreas Schwab, and Roland McGrath.
* The `libio' library used to implement `stdio' functions on some
platforms was written by Per Bothner and modified by Ulrich
