- Copy stable/10 (r259064) to releng/10.0 as part of the
10.0-RELEASE cycle.
- Update __FreeBSD_version [1]
- Set branch name to -RC1

[1] 10.0-CURRENT __FreeBSD_version value ended at '55', so
start releng/10.0 at '100' so the branch is started with
a value ending in zero.

On ARM EABI double precision floating point values are stored in the
endian the CPU is in, i.e. little-endian on most ARM cores.

This allows ARMv4 and ARMv5 boards to boot with the ARM EABI.


253518 21-Jul-2013 andrew

Teach siglongjmp about the VFP version of the setjmp buffer.

This fixes a bug where a call to sigsetjmp followed by siglongjmp may fail
when run on a machine with VFP enabled.


251514 07-Jun-2013 andrew

Finish pulling in the NetBSD setjmp/longjmp updates on ARM.

Store/restore the VFP registers in setjmp/longjmp on ARM EABI if VFP is
enabled in the kernel. It checks the hw.floatingpoint sysctl to see if
floating-point is available and uses this to determine if it should store
them. If it does it uses a different magic value so longjmp is able to know
if it should load them.


251509 07-Jun-2013 andrew

Include machine/setjmp.h to get the definition of _JB_MAGIC__SETJMP. This

Remove part of the NetBSD longjmp code that was not ready to be merged.


251392 04-Jun-2013 andrew

Start to merge the updated ARM NetBSD setjump/longjmp functions. To begin
with merge the functions but leave out the code to save/load the VFP
registers as that requires other changes to ensure the VFP is enabled
first.

This removes storing the old fpa registers. These were never fully
supported, and the only user of this code I can find have moved to newer
CPUs which use a VFP.


251047 28-May-2013 kib

The getcontext() from the __fillcontextx() call in the
check_deferred_signal() returns twice, since handle_signal() emulates
the return from the normal signal handler by sigreturn(2)ing the
passed context. Second return is performed on the destroyed stack
frame, because __fillcontextx() has already returned. This causes
undefined and bad behaviour, usually the victim thread gets SIGSEGV.

Avoid nested frame and the need to return from it by doing direct call
to getcontext() in the check_deferred_signal() and using a new private
libc helper __fillcontextx2() to complement the context with the
extended CPU state if the deferred signal is still present.

The __fillcontextx() is now unused, but is kept to allow older
libthr.so to be used with the new libc.

Mark __fillcontextx() as returning twice [1].

When clang builds libc it may insert calls to __aeabi_* functions. Normally
this is not a problem as they are resolved by libgcc. The exception is for
the __aeabi_mem* functions. These call back into libc to the appropriate
function. This causes issues for static binaries as we only link against
libc once so there is no way for it to call into libgcc and back.

The fix for this is to include these symbols in libc but keep them hidden
so binaries use the libgcc version.


246117 30-Jan-2013 kib

Rework the __vdso_* symbols attributes to only make the symbols weak,
but use normal references instead of weak. This makes the statically

245650 19-Jan-2013 andrew

Update the syscall calling convention for ARM EABI. We store the syscall
in r7 and use ip to store the old version of r7 as it is not guaranteed to
be kept when calling a subroutine. The kernel will preserve the register
across system calls.

Don't inline fenv.h functions on arm for now. Inlining makes sense:
the function bodies require only 2 to 10 instructions. However, it
leads to application binaries that refer to a private ABI, namely, the
softfloat innards in libc. This could complicate future changes in
the implementation of the floating-point emulation layer, so it seems
best to have programs refer to the official fe* entry points in libm.


230191 16-Jan-2012 das

Implement FLT_ROUNDS for arm. Some (all?) arm FPUs lack support for

Merge index() and strchr() together.

As I looked through the C library, I noticed the FreeBSD MIPS port has a
hand-written version of index(). This is nice, if it weren't for the
fact that most applications call strchr() instead.

Also, on the other architectures index() and strchr() are identical,
meaning we have two identical pieces of code in the C library and
statically linked applications.

Solve this by naming the actual file strchr.[cS] and let it use
__strong_reference()/STRONG_ALIAS() to provide the index() routine. Do
the same for rindex()/strrchr().

This seems to make the C libraries and static binaries slightly smaller,
but this reduction in size seems negligible.

Replace a proliferation of buggy MD implementations of modf() with a
working MI one. The MI one only needs to be overridden on machines
with non-IEEE754 arithmetic. (The last supported one was the VAX.)
It can also be overridden if someone comes up with a faster one that
actually passes the regression tests -- but this is harder than it sounds.

Mark uname(), getdomainname() and setdomainname() with COMPAT_FREEBSD4.

Looking at our source code history, it seems the uname(),
getdomainname() and setdomainname() system calls got deprecated
somewhere after FreeBSD 1.1, but they have never been phased out
properly. Because we don't have a COMPAT_FREEBSD1, just use
COMPAT_FREEBSD4.

Also fix the Linuxolator to build without the setdomainname() routine by
just making it call userland_sysctl on kern.domainname. Also replace the
setdomainname()'s implementation to use this approach, because we're
duplicating code with sysctl_domainname().

I wasn't able to keep these three routines working in our
COMPAT_FREEBSD32, because that would require yet another keyword for
syscalls.master (COMPAT4+NOPROTO). Because this routine is probably
unused already, this won't be a problem in practice. If it turns out to
be a problem, we'll just restore this functionality.

Classify mmap, lseek, pread, pwrite, truncate, ftruncate as pseudo

After 7-stable starts, the direct syscall method will be default.

Approved by: re (kensmith)


171217 04-Jul-2007 peter

Adjust the syscall stub macros to be consistent in their meaning. In
particular:
SYSCALL() makes a syscall, with errno handling, and continues execution
directly after the macro in the non-error case.
RSYSCALL() is just like SYSCALL(), but returns after success.
Both SYSCALL(name) and RSYSCALL(name) export "__sys_name" as a strong
symbol, with "_name" and "name" as weak aliases.
PSEUDO() is just like RSYSCALL(), but skipping the "name" weak alias. It
still does "__sys_name" and "_name".

Change i386 to add errno handling to PSEUDO. The same for amd64 and
sparc64, with appear to have copied the behavior.
ia64 was correct (as was alpha). Just remove some apparently unused
variants of the macros. (untested!)
I believe powerpc is correct.
Fix arm to not export "name" from the PSEUDO case. Remove apparently
extra unused variants. (untested!)

The errno problem manifested on i386/amd64/sparc64 by having "PSEUDO"
classified syscalls return without setting errno. eg: "addr = mmap()"
could return with "addr" = 22 instead of setting errno to 22 and
returning -1.

131852 09-Jul-2004 das

Implement the classification macros isfinite(), isinf(), isnan(), and
isnormal() the hard way, rather than relying on fpclassify(). This is
a lose in the sense that we need a total of 12 functions, but it is
necessary for binary compatibility because we have never bumped libm's
major version number. In particular, isinf(), isnan(), and isnanf()
were BSD libc functions before they were C99 macros, so we can't
reimplement them in terms of fpclassify() without adding a dependency
on libc.so.5. I have tried to arrange things so that programs that
could be compiled in FreeBSD 4.X will generate the same external
references when compiled in 5.X. At the same time, the new macros
should remain C99-compliant.

The isinf() and isnan() functions remain in libc for historical
reasons; however, I have moved the functions that implement the macros
isfinite() and isnormal() to libm where they belong. Moreover,
half a dozen MD versions of isinf() and isnan() have been replaced
with MI versions that work equally well.
