This patch adds a new feature for powerpc. In order to get faster access to the HWCAP/HWCAP2 bits and platform number (i.e. for implementing __builtin_cpu_is () / __builtin_cpu_supports () in GCC) without the overhead of reading from the auxiliary vector, we now reserve space for them in the TCB. This is an ABI change for GLIBC 2.23. A new versioned symbol '__parse_hwcap_and_convert_at_platform' is available to get the data from the auxiliary vector and parse it, and store it for later use in the TLS initialization code. This function is called very early (in _dl_sysdep_start () via DL_PLATFORM_INFO for the dynamic linking case, and in __libc_start_main () for the static linking case) to make sure the data is available at the time of TLS initialization. * sysdeps/powerpc/Makefile (sysdep-dl-routines): Add hwcapinfo. (sysdep_routines): Likewise. (sysdep-rtld-routines): Likewise. [$(subdir) = nptl](tests): Add test-get_hwcap and test-get_hwcap-static [$(subdir) = nptl](tests-static): test-get_hwcap-static * sysdeps/powerpc/Versions: Added new __parse_hwcap_and_convert_at_platform symbol to GLIBC-2.23. * sysdeps/powerpc/hwcapinfo.c: New file. (__tcb_parse_hwcap_and_convert_at_platform): New function to initialize and parse hwcap, hwcap2 and platform number information. * sysdeps/powerpc/hwcapinfo.h: New file. Creates global variables to store HWCAP+HWCAP2 and platform number. * sysdeps/powerpc/nptl/tcb-offsets.sym: Added new offsets for HWCAP+HWCAP2 and platform number in the TCB. * sysdeps/powerpc/nptl/tls.h: New functionality. Stores the HWCAP, HWCAP2 and platform number in the TCB. (dtv): Added new fields for HWCAP+HWCAP2 and platform number. (TLS_INIT_TP): Included calls to add the hwcap and at_platform values in the TCB in TP initialization. (TLS_DEFINE_INIT_TP): Likewise. (THREAD_GET_HWCAP): New macro. (THREAD_SET_HWCAP): Likewise. (THREAD_GET_AT_PLATFORM): Likewise. (THREAD_SET_AT_PLATFORM): Likewise. * sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/dl-machine.h: (dl_platform_init): New function that calls __parse_hwcap_and_convert_at_platform for the dymanic linking case for powerpc32. * sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/dl-machine.h: Likewise, for powerpc64. * sysdeps/powerpc/test-get_hwcap-static.c: New file. Testcase for this functionality, static linking case. * sysdeps/powerpc/test-get_hwcap.c: New file. Likewise, dynamic linking case. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/libc-start.c: Added call to __parse_hwcap_and_convert_at_platform for the static linking case. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc32/ld.abilist: Included the new __parse_hwcap_and_convert_at_platform symbol in the ABI list for GLIBC 2.23. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc64/ld-le.abilist: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc64/ld.abilist: Likewise. |

This directory contains the sources of the GNU C Library. See the file "version.h" for what release version you have. The GNU C Library is the standard system C library for all GNU systems, and is an important part of what makes up a GNU system. It provides the system API for all programs written in C and C-compatible languages such as C++ and Objective C; the runtime facilities of other programming languages use the C library to access the underlying operating system. In GNU/Linux systems, the C library works with the Linux kernel to implement the operating system behavior seen by user applications. In GNU/Hurd systems, it works with a microkernel and Hurd servers. The GNU C Library implements much of the POSIX.1 functionality in the GNU/Hurd system, using configurations i[4567]86-*-gnu. The current GNU/Hurd support requires out-of-tree patches that will eventually be incorporated into an official GNU C Library release. When working with Linux kernels, this version of the GNU C Library requires Linux kernel version 2.6.32 or later. Also note that the shared version of the libgcc_s library must be installed for the pthread library to work correctly. The GNU C Library supports these configurations for using Linux kernels: aarch64*-*-linux-gnu alpha*-*-linux-gnu arm-*-linux-gnueabi hppa-*-linux-gnu Not currently functional without patches. i[4567]86-*-linux-gnu x86_64-*-linux-gnu Can build either x86_64 or x32 ia64-*-linux-gnu m68k-*-linux-gnu microblaze*-*-linux-gnu mips-*-linux-gnu mips64-*-linux-gnu powerpc-*-linux-gnu Hardware or software floating point, BE only. powerpc64*-*-linux-gnu Big-endian and little-endian. s390-*-linux-gnu s390x-*-linux-gnu sh[34]-*-linux-gnu sparc*-*-linux-gnu sparc64*-*-linux-gnu tilegx-*-linux-gnu tilepro-*-linux-gnu If you are interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc maintainers; see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ for more information. See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, and install the GNU C Library. You might also consider reading the WWW pages for the C library at http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/. The GNU C Library is (almost) completely documented by the Texinfo manual found in the `manual/' subdirectory. The manual is still being updated and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like. For corrections to the manual, please file a bug in the `manual' component, following the bug-reporting instructions below. Please be sure to check the manual in the current development sources to see if your problem has already been corrected. Please see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html for bug reporting information. We are now using the Bugzilla system to track all bug reports. This web page gives detailed information on how to report bugs properly. The GNU C Library is free software. See the file COPYING.LIB for copying conditions, and LICENSES for notices about a few contributions that require these additional notices to be distributed. License copyright years may be listed using range notation, e.g., 1996-2015, indicating that every year in the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that would otherwise be listed individually.
