With only two exceptions (sys/types.h and sys/param.h, both of which historically might have defined BYTE_ORDER) the public headers that include <endian.h> only want to be able to test __BYTE_ORDER against __*_ENDIAN. This patch creates a new bits/endian.h that can be included by any header that wants to be able to test __BYTE_ORDER and/or __FLOAT_WORD_ORDER against the __*_ENDIAN constants, or needs __LONG_LONG_PAIR. It only defines macros in the implementation namespace. The existing bits/endian.h (which could not be included independently of endian.h, and only defines __BYTE_ORDER and maybe __FLOAT_WORD_ORDER) is renamed to bits/endianness.h. I also took the opportunity to canonicalize the form of this header, which we are stuck with having one copy of per architecture. Since they are so short, this means git doesn’t understand that they were renamed from existing headers, sigh. endian.h itself is a nonstandard header and its only remaining use from a standard header is guarded by __USE_MISC, so I dropped the __USE_MISC conditionals from around all of the public-namespace things it defines. (This means, an application that requests strict library conformance but includes endian.h will still see the definition of BYTE_ORDER.) A few changes to specific bits/endian(ness).h variants deserve mention: - sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ia64/bits/endian.h is moved to sysdeps/ia64/bits/endianness.h. If I remember correctly, ia64 did have selectable endianness, but we have assembly code in sysdeps/ia64 that assumes it’s little-endian, so there is no reason to treat the ia64 endianness.h as linux-specific. - The C-SKY port does not fully support big-endian mode, the compile will error out if __CSKYBE__ is defined. - The PowerPC port had extra logic in its bits/endian.h to detect a broken compiler, which strikes me as unnecessary, so I removed it. - The only files that defined __FLOAT_WORD_ORDER always defined it to the same value as __BYTE_ORDER, so I removed those definitions. The SH bits/endian(ness).h had comments inconsistent with the actual setting of __FLOAT_WORD_ORDER, which I also removed. - I *removed* copyright boilerplate from the few bits/endian(ness).h headers that had it; these files record a single fact in a fashion dictated by an external spec, so I do not think they are copyrightable. As long as I was changing every copy of ieee754.h in the tree, I noticed that only the MIPS variant includes float.h, because it uses LDBL_MANT_DIG to decide among three different versions of ieee854_long_double. This patch makes it not include float.h when GCC’s intrinsic __LDBL_MANT_DIG__ is available. * string/endian.h: Unconditionally define LITTLE_ENDIAN, BIG_ENDIAN, PDP_ENDIAN, and BYTE_ORDER. Condition byteswapping macros only on !__ASSEMBLER__. Move the definitions of __BIG_ENDIAN, __LITTLE_ENDIAN, __PDP_ENDIAN, __FLOAT_WORD_ORDER, and __LONG_LONG_PAIR to... * string/bits/endian.h: ...this new file, which includes the renamed header bits/endianness.h for the definition of __BYTE_ORDER and possibly __FLOAT_WORD_ORDER. * string/Makefile: Install bits/endianness.h. * include/bits/endian.h: New wrapper. * bits/endian.h: Rename to bits/endianness.h. Add multiple-include guard. Rewrite the comment explaining what the machine-specific variants of this file should do. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ia64/bits/endian.h: Move to sysdeps/ia64. * sysdeps/aarch64/bits/endian.h * sysdeps/alpha/bits/endian.h * sysdeps/arm/bits/endian.h * sysdeps/csky/bits/endian.h * sysdeps/hppa/bits/endian.h * sysdeps/ia64/bits/endian.h * sysdeps/m68k/bits/endian.h * sysdeps/microblaze/bits/endian.h * sysdeps/mips/bits/endian.h * sysdeps/nios2/bits/endian.h * sysdeps/powerpc/bits/endian.h * sysdeps/riscv/bits/endian.h * sysdeps/s390/bits/endian.h * sysdeps/sh/bits/endian.h * sysdeps/sparc/bits/endian.h * sysdeps/x86/bits/endian.h: Rename to endianness.h; canonicalize form of file; remove redundant definitions of __FLOAT_WORD_ORDER. * sysdeps/powerpc/bits/endianness.h: Remove logic to check for broken compilers. * ctype/ctype.h * sysdeps/aarch64/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h * sysdeps/arm/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h * sysdeps/csky/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h * sysdeps/ia64/ieee754.h * sysdeps/ieee754/ieee754.h * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/ieee754.h * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/ieee754.h * sysdeps/m68k/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h * sysdeps/microblaze/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h * sysdeps/mips/ieee754/ieee754.h * sysdeps/mips/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h * sysdeps/nios2/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h * sysdeps/nptl/pthread.h * sysdeps/riscv/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h * sysdeps/sh/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h * sysdeps/sparc/sparc32/ieee754.h * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/generic/bits/stat.h * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/generic/bits/statfs.h * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sys/acct.h * wctype/bits/wctype-wchar.h: Include bits/endian.h, not endian.h. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/hppa/pthread.h: Don’t include endian.h. * sysdeps/mips/ieee754/ieee754.h: Use __LDBL_MANT_DIG__ in ifdefs, instead of LDBL_MANT_DIG. Only include float.h when __LDBL_MANT_DIG__ is not predefined, in which case define __LDBL_MANT_DIG__ to equal LDBL_MANT_DIG. |

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. When working with Linux kernels, this version of the GNU C Library requires Linux kernel version 3.2 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 csky-*-linux-gnuabiv2 hppa-*-linux-gnu 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 riscv64-*-linux-gnu sh[34]-*-linux-gnu sparc*-*-linux-gnu sparc64*-*-linux-gnu If you are interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc maintainers; see https://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 https://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 https://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.
