The +system permits the developer to concentrate on writing the program, +simplifying many details of portability across Unix and even Windows +systems, and permitting the developer to describe how to build the +program using simple rules rather than complex Makefiles. + +The second is to simplify the building of programs distributed as source +code. All programs are built using a simple, standardized, two step +process. The program builder need not install any special tools in +order to build the program. + +@node Tools +@section Tools + +The GNU configure and build system is comprised of several different +tools. Program developers must build and install all of these tools. + +People who just want to build programs from distributed sources normally +do not need any special tools beyond a Unix shell, a make program, and a +C compiler. + +@table @asis +@item autoconf +provides a general portability framework, based on testing the features +of the host system at build time. +@item automake +a system for describing how to build a program, permitting the developer +to write a simplified @file{Makefile}. +@item libtool +a standardized approach to building shared libraries. +@item gettext +provides a framework for translation of text messages into other +languages; not really discussed in this document. +@item m4 +autoconf requires the GNU version of m4; the standard Unix m4 does not +suffice. +@item perl +automake requires perl. +@end table + +@node History +@section History +@cindex history + +This is a very brief and probably inaccurate history. + +As the number of Unix variants increased during the 1980s, it became +harder to write programs which could run on all variants. While it was +often possible to use @code{#ifdef} to identify particular systems, +developers frequently did not have access to every system, and the +characteristics of some systems changed from version to version. + +By 1992, at least three different approaches had been developed: +@itemize @bullet +@item +The Metaconfig program, by Larry Wall, Harlan Stenn, and Raphael +Manfredi. +@item +The Cygnus configure script, by K. Richard Pixley, and the gcc configure +script, by Richard Stallman. These use essentially the same approach, +and the developers communicated regularly. +@item +The autoconf program, by David MacKenzie. +@end itemize + +The Metaconfig program is still used for Perl and a few other programs. +It is part of the Dist package. I do not know if it is being developed. + +In 1994, David MacKenzie and others modified autoconf to incorporate all +the features of Cygnus configure. Since then, there has been a slow but +steady conversion of GNU programs from Cygnus configure to autoconf. gcc +has been converted, eliminating the gcc configure script. + +GNU autoconf was regularly maintained until late 1996. As of this +writing in June, 1998, it has no public maintainer. + +Most programs are built using the make program, which requires the +developer to write Makefiles describing how to build the programs. +Since most programs are built in pretty much the same way, this led to a +lot of duplication. + +The X Window system is built using the imake tool, which uses a database +of rules to eliminate the duplication. However, building a tool which +was developed using imake requires that the builder have imake +installed, violating one of the goals of the GNU system. + +The new BSD make provides a standard library of Makefile fragments, +which permits developers to write very simple Makefiles. However, this +requires that the builder install the new BSD make program. + +In 1994, David MacKenzie wrote the first version of automake, which +permitted writing a simple build description which was converted into a +Makefile which could be used by the standard make program. In 1995, Tom +Tromey completely rewrote automake in Perl, and he continues to enhance +it. + +Various free packages built libraries, and by around 1995 several +included support to build shared libraries on various platforms. +However, there was no consistent approach. In early 1996, Gordon +Matzigkeit began working on libtool, which provided a standardized +approach to building shared libraries. This was integrated into +automake from the start. + +The development of automake and libtool was driven by the GNITS project, +a group of GNU maintainers who designed standardized tools to help meet +the GNU coding standards. + +@node Building +@section Building + +Most readers of this document should already know how to build a tool by +running @samp{configure} and @samp{make}. This section may serve as a +quick introduction or reminder. + +Building a tool is normally as simple as running @samp{configure} +followed by @samp{make}. You should normally run @samp{configure} from +an empty directory, using some path to refer to the @samp{configure} +script in the source directory. The directory in which you run +@samp{configure} is called the @dfn{object directory}. + +In order to use a object directory which is different from the source +directory, you must be using the GNU version of @samp{make}, which has +the required @samp{VPATH} support. Despite this restriction, using a +different object directory is highly recommended: +@itemize @bullet +@item +It keeps the files generated during the build from cluttering up your +sources. +@item +It permits you to remove the built files by simply removing the entire +build directory. +@item +It permits you to build from the same sources with several sets of +configure options simultaneously. +@end itemize + +If you don't have GNU @samp{make}, you will have to run @samp{configure} +in the source directory. All GNU packages should support this; in +particular, GNU packages should not assume the presence of GNU +@samp{make}. + +After running @samp{configure}, you can build the tools by running +@samp{make}. + +To install the tools, run @samp{make install}. Installing the tools +will copy the programs and any required support files to the +@dfn{installation directory}. The location of the installation +directory is controlled by @samp{configure} options, as described below. + +In the Cygnus tree at present, the info files are built and installed as +a separate step. To build them, run @samp{make info}. To install them, +run @samp{make install-info}. + +All @samp{configure} scripts support a wide variety of options. The +most interesting ones are @samp{--with} and @samp{--enable} options +which are generally specific to particular tools. You can usually use +the @samp{--help} option to get a list of interesting options for a +particular configure script. + +The only generic options you are likely to use are the @samp{--prefix} +and @samp{--exec-prefix} options. These options are used to specify the +installation directory. + +The directory named by the @samp{--prefix} option will hold machine +independent files such as info files. + +The directory named by the @samp{--exec-prefix} option, which is +normally a subdirectory of the @samp{--prefix} directory, will hold +machine dependent files such as executables. + +The default for @samp{--prefix} is @file{/usr/local}. The default for +@samp{--exec-prefix} is the value used for @samp{--prefix}. + +The convention used in Cygnus releases is to use a @samp{--prefix} +option of @file{/usr/cygnus/@var{release}}, where @var{release} is the +name of the release, and to use a @samp{--exec-prefix} option of +@file{/usr/cygnus/@var{release}/H-@var{host}}, where @var{host} is the +configuration name of the host system (@pxref{Configuration Names}). + +Do not use either the source or the object directory as the installation +directory. That will just lead to confusion. + +@node Getting Started +@chapter Getting Started + +To start using the GNU configure and build system with your software +package, you must write three files, and you must run some tools to +manually generate additional files. + +@menu +* Write configure.in:: Write configure.in. +* Write Makefile.am:: Write Makefile.am. +* Write acconfig.h:: Write acconfig.h. +* Generate files:: Generate files. +* Getting Started Example:: Example. +@end menu + +@node Write configure.in +@section Write configure.in +@cindex @file{configure.in}, writing + +You must first write the file @file{configure.in}. This is an autoconf +input file, and the autoconf manual describes in detail what this file +should look like. + +You will write tests in your @file{configure.in} file to check for +conditions that may change from one system to another, such as the +presence of particular header files or functions. + +For example, not all systems support the @samp{gettimeofday} function. +If you want to use the @samp{gettimeofday} function when it is +available, and to use some other function when it is not, you would +check for this by putting @samp{AC_CHECK_FUNCS(gettimeofday)} in +@file{configure.in}. + +When the configure script is run at build time, this will arrange to +define the preprocessor macro @samp{HAVE_GETTIMEOFDAY} to the value 1 if +the @samp{gettimeofday} function is available, and to not define the +macro at all if the function is not available. Your code can then use +@samp{#ifdef} to test whether it is safe to call @samp{gettimeofday}. + +If you have an existing body of code, the @samp{autoscan} program may +help identify potential portability problems, and hence configure tests +that you will want to use. +@ifnothtml +@xref{Invoking autoscan, , , autoconf, the autoconf manual}. +@end ifnothtml +@ifhtml +See @uref{http://www.delorie.com/gnu/docs/autoconf/autoconf_4.html, the +autoscan documentation}. +@end ifhtml + +Another handy tool for an existing body of code is @samp{ifnames}. This +will show you all the preprocessor conditionals that the code already +uses. +@ifnothtml +@xref{Invoking ifnames, , , autoconf, the autoconf manual}. +@end ifnothtml +@ifhtml +See @uref{http://www.delorie.com/gnu/docs/autoconf/autoconf_5.html, the +ifnames documentation}. +@end ifhtml + +Besides the portability tests which are specific to your particular +package, every @file{configure.in} file should contain the following +macros. + +@table @samp +@item AC_INIT +@cindex @samp{AC_INIT} +This macro takes a single argument, which is the name of a file in your +package. For example, @samp{AC_INIT(foo.c)}. + +@item AC_PREREQ(@var{VERSION}) +@cindex @samp{AC_PREREQ} +This macro is optional. It may be used to indicate the version of +@samp{autoconf} that you are using. This will prevent users from +running an earlier version of @samp{autoconf} and perhaps getting an +invalid @file{configure} script. For example, @samp{AC_PREREQ(2.12)}. + +@item AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE +@cindex @samp{AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE} +This macro takes two arguments: the name of the package, and a version +number. For example, @samp{AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(foo, 1.0)}. (This macro is +not needed if you are not using automake). + +@item AM_CONFIG_HEADER +@cindex @samp{AM_CONFIG_HEADER} +This macro names the header file which will hold the preprocessor macro +definitions at run time. Normally this should be @file{config.h}. Your +sources would then use @samp{#include "config.h"} to include it. + +This macro may optionally name the input file for that header file; by +default, this is @file{config.h.in}, but that file name works poorly on +DOS filesystems. Therefore, it is often better to name it explicitly as +@file{config.in}. + +This is what you should normally put in @file{configure.in}: +@example +AM_CONFIG_HEADER(config.h:config.in) +@end example + +@cindex @samp{AC_CONFIG_HEADER} +(If you are not using automake, use @samp{AC_CONFIG_HEADER} rather than +@samp{AM_CONFIG_HEADER}). + +@item AM_MAINTAINER_MODE +@cindex @samp{AM_MAINTAINER_MODE} +This macro always appears in Cygnus configure scripts. Other programs +may or may not use it. + +If this macro is used, the @samp{--enable-maintainer-mode} option is +required to enable automatic rebuilding of generated files used by the +configure system. This of course requires that developers be aware of, +and use, that option. + +If this macro is not used, then the generated files will always be +rebuilt automatically. This will cause problems if the wrong versions +of autoconf, automake, or others are in the builder's @samp{PATH}. + +(If you are not using automake, you do not need to use this macro). + +@item AC_EXEEXT +@cindex @samp{AC_EXEEXT} +@cindex @samp{AM_EXEEXT} +Either this macro or @samp{AM_EXEEXT} always appears in Cygnus configure +files. Other programs may or may not use one of them. + +This macro looks for the executable suffix used on the host system. On +Unix systems, this is the empty string. On Windows systems, this is +@samp{.exe}. This macro directs automake to use the executable suffix +as appropriate when creating programs. This macro does not take any +arguments. + +The @samp{AC_EXEEXT} form is new, and is part of a Cygnus patch to +autoconf to support compiling with Visual C++. Older programs use +@samp{AM_EXEEXT} instead. + +(Programs which do not use automake use neither @samp{AC_EXEEXT} nor +@samp{AM_EXEEXT}). + +@item AC_PROG_CC +@cindex @samp{AC_PROG_CC} +If you are writing C code, you will normally want to use this macro. It +locates the C compiler to use. It does not take any arguments. + +However, if this @file{configure.in} file is for a library which is to +be compiled by a cross compiler which may not fully work, then you will +not want to use @samp{AC_PROG_CC}. Instead, you will want to use a +variant which does not call the macro @samp{AC_PROG_CC_WORKS}. Examples +can be found in various @file{configure.in} files for libraries that are +compiled with cross compilers, such as libiberty or libgloss. This is +essentially a bug in autoconf, and there will probably be a better +workaround at some point. + +@item AC_PROG_CXX +@cindex @samp{AC_PROG_CXX} +If you are writing C++ code, you will want to use this macro. It +locates the C++ compiler to use. It does not take any arguments. The +same cross compiler comments apply as for @samp{AC_PROG_CC}. + +@item AM_PROG_LIBTOOL +@cindex @samp{AM_PROG_LIBTOOL} +If you want to build libraries, and you want to permit them to be +shared, or you want to link against libraries which were built using +libtool, then you will need this macro. This macro is required in order +to use libtool. + +@cindex @samp{AM_DISABLE_SHARED} +By default, this will cause all libraries to be built as shared +libraries. To prevent this--to change the default--use +@samp{AM_DISABLE_SHARED} before @samp{AM_PROG_LIBTOOL}. The configure +options @samp{--enable-shared} and @samp{--disable-shared} may be used +to override the default at build time. + +@item AC_DEFINE(_GNU_SOURCE) +@cindex @samp{_GNU_SOURCE} +GNU packages should normally include this line before any other feature +tests. This defines the macro @samp{_GNU_SOURCE} when compiling, which +directs the libc header files to provide the standard GNU system +interfaces including all GNU extensions. If this macro is not defined, +certain GNU extensions may not be available. + +@item AC_OUTPUT +@cindex @samp{AC_OUTPUT} +This macro takes a list of file names which the configure process should +produce. This is normally a list of one or more @file{Makefile} files +in different directories. If your package lives entirely in a single +directory, you would use simply @samp{AC_OUTPUT(Makefile)}. If you also +have, for example, a @file{lib} subdirectory, you would use +@samp{AC_OUTPUT(Makefile lib/Makefile)}. +@end table + +If you want to use locally defined macros in your @file{configure.in} +file, then you will need to write a @file{acinclude.m4} file which +defines them (if not using automake, this file is called +@file{aclocal.m4}). Alternatively, you can put separate macros in an +@file{m4} subdirectory, and put @samp{ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I m4} in your +@file{Makefile.am} file so that the @samp{aclocal} program will be able +to find them. + +The different macro prefixes indicate which tool defines the macro. +Macros which start with @samp{AC_} are part of autoconf. Macros which +start with @samp{AM_} are provided by automake or libtool. + +@node Write Makefile.am +@section Write Makefile.am +@cindex @file{Makefile.am}, writing + +You must write the file @file{Makefile.am}. This is an automake input +file, and the automake manual describes in detail what this file should +look like. + +The automake commands in @file{Makefile.am} mostly look like variable +assignments in a @file{Makefile}. automake recognizes special variable +names, and automatically add make rules to the output as needed. + +There will be one @file{Makefile.am} file for each directory in your +package. For each directory with subdirectories, the @file{Makefile.am} +file should contain the line +@smallexample +SUBDIRS = @var{dir} @var{dir} @dots{} +@end smallexample +@noindent +where each @var{dir} is the name of a subdirectory. + +For each @file{Makefile.am}, there should be a corresponding +@file{Makefile} in the @samp{AC_OUTPUT} macro in @file{configure.in}. + +Every @file{Makefile.am} written at Cygnus should contain the line +@smallexample +AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = cygnus +@end smallexample +@noindent +This puts automake into Cygnus mode. See the automake manual for +details. + +You may to include the version number of @samp{automake} that you are +using on the @samp{AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS} line. For example, +@smallexample +AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = cygnus 1.3 +@end smallexample +@noindent +This will prevent users from running an earlier version of +@samp{automake} and perhaps getting an invalid @file{Makefile.in}. + +If your package builds a program, then in the directory where that +program is built you will normally want a line like +@smallexample +bin_PROGRAMS = @var{program} +@end smallexample +@noindent +where @var{program} is the name of the program. You will then want a +line like +@smallexample +@var{program}_SOURCES = @var{file} @var{file} @dots{} +@end smallexample +@noindent +where each @var{file} is the name of a source file to link into the +program (e.g., @samp{foo.c}). + +If your package builds a library, and you do not want the library to +ever be built as a shared library, then in the directory where that +library is built you will normally want a line like +@smallexample +lib_LIBRARIES = lib@var{name}.a +@end smallexample +@noindent +where @samp{lib@var{name}.a} is the name of the library. You will then +want a line like +@smallexample +lib@var{name}_a_SOURCES = @var{file} @var{file} @dots{} +@end smallexample +@noindent +where each @var{file} is the name of a source file to add to the +library. + +If your package builds a library, and you want to permit building the +library as a shared library, then in the directory where that library is +built you will normally want a line like +@smallexample +lib_LTLIBRARIES = lib@var{name}.la +@end smallexample +The use of @samp{LTLIBRARIES}, and the @samp{.la} extension, indicate a +library to be built using libtool. As usual, you will then want a line +like +@smallexample +lib@var{name}_la_SOURCES = @var{file} @var{file} @dots{} +@end smallexample + +The strings @samp{bin} and @samp{lib} that appear above in +@samp{bin_PROGRAMS} and @samp{lib_LIBRARIES} are not arbitrary. They +refer to particular directories, which may be set by the @samp{--bindir} +and @samp{--libdir} options to @file{configure}. If those options are +not used, the default values are based on the @samp{--prefix} or +@samp{--exec-prefix} options to @file{configure}. It is possible to use +other names if the program or library should be installed in some other +directory. + +The @file{Makefile.am} file may also contain almost anything that may +appear in a normal @file{Makefile}. automake also supports many other +special variables, as well as conditionals. + +See the automake manual for more information. + +@node Write acconfig.h +@section Write acconfig.h +@cindex @file{acconfig.h}, writing + +If you are generating a portability header file, (i.e., you are using +@samp{AM_CONFIG_HEADER} in @file{configure.in}), then you will have to +write a @file{acconfig.h} file. It will have to contain the following +lines. + +@smallexample +/* Name of package. */ +#undef PACKAGE + +/* Version of package. */ +#undef VERSION +@end smallexample + +This requirement is really a bug in the system, and the requirement may +be eliminated at some later date. + +The @file{acconfig.h} file will also similar comment and @samp{#undef} +lines for any unusual macros in the @file{configure.in} file, including +any macro which appears in a @samp{AC_DEFINE} macro. + +In particular, if you are writing a GNU package and therefore include +@samp{AC_DEFINE(_GNU_SOURCE)} in @file{configure.in} as suggested above, +you will need lines like this in @file{acconfig.h}: +@smallexample +/* Enable GNU extensions. */ +#undef _GNU_SOURCE +@end smallexample + +Normally the @samp{autoheader} program will inform you of any such +requirements by printing an error message when it is run. However, if +you do anything particular odd in your @file{configure.in} file, you +will have to make sure that the right entries appear in +@file{acconfig.h}, since otherwise the results of the tests may not be +available in the @file{config.h} file which your code will use. + +(Thee @samp{PACKAGE} and @samp{VERSION} lines are not required if you +are not using automake, and in that case you may not need a +@file{acconfig.h} file at all). + +@node Generate files +@section Generate files + +Once you have written @file{configure.in}, @file{Makefile.am}, +@file{acconfig.h}, and possibly @file{acinclude.m4}, you must use +autoconf and automake programs to produce the first versions of the +generated files. This is done by executing the following sequence of +commands. + +@smallexample +aclocal +autoconf +autoheader +automake +@end smallexample + +The @samp{aclocal} and @samp{automake} commands are part of the automake +package, and the @samp{autoconf} and @samp{autoheader} commands are part +of the autoconf package. + +If you are using a @file{m4} subdirectory for your macros, you will need +to use the @samp{-I m4} option when you run @samp{aclocal}. + +If you are not using the Cygnus tree, use the @samp{-a} option when +running @samp{automake} command in order to copy the required support +files into your source directory. + +If you are using libtool, you must build and install the libtool package +with the same @samp{--prefix} and @samp{--exec-prefix} options as you +used with the autoconf and automake packages. You must do this before +running any of the above commands. If you are not using the Cygnus +tree, you will need to run the @samp{libtoolize} program to copy the +libtool support files into your directory. + +Once you have managed to run these commands without getting any errors, +you should create a new empty directory, and run the @samp{configure} +script which will have been created by @samp{autoconf} with the +@samp{--enable-maintainer-mode} option. This will give you a set of +Makefiles which will include rules to automatically rebuild all the +generated files. + +After doing that, whenever you have changed some of the input files and +want to regenerated the other files, go to your object directory and run +@samp{make}. Doing this is more reliable than trying to rebuild the +files manually, because there are complex order dependencies and it is +easy to forget something. + +@node Getting Started Example +@section Example + +Let's consider a trivial example. + +Suppose we want to write a simple version of @samp{touch}.

Note that we've written it +without ANSI/ISO C prototypes, since we want it to be highly portable. + +@example +#include <stdio.h> +#include <stdlib.h> +#include <sys/types.h> +#include <utime.h> + +int +main (argc, argv) + int argc; + char **argv; +@{ + if (argc != 2) + @{ + fprintf (stderr, "Usage: poke file\n"); + exit (1); + @} + + if (utime (argv[1], NULL) < 0) + @{ + perror ("utime"); + exit (1); + @} + + exit (0); +@} +@end example + +We also write a simple @file{Makefile}. + +@example +CC = gcc +CFLAGS = -g -O2 + +all: poke + +poke: poke.o + $(CC) -o poke $(CFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) poke.o +@end example + +So far, so good. + +Unfortunately, there are a few problems. + +On older Unix systems derived from BSD 4.3, the @samp{utime} system call +does not accept a second argument of @samp{NULL}. On those systems, we +need to pass a pointer to @samp{struct utimbuf} structure. +Unfortunately, even older systems don't define that structure; on those +systems, we need to pass an array of two @samp{long} values. + +The header file @file{stdlib.h} was invented by ANSI C, and older +systems don't have a copy. We included it above to get a declaration of +@samp{exit}. + +We can find some of these portability problems by running +@samp{autoscan}, which will create a @file{configure.scan} file which we +can use as a prototype for our @file{configure.in} file. I won't show +the output, but it will notice the potential problems with @samp{utime} +and @file{stdlib.h}. + +In our @file{Makefile}, we don't provide any way to install the program. +This doesn't matter much for such a simple example, but a real program +will need an @samp{install} target. For that matter, we will also want +a @samp{clean} target. + +@node Getting Started Example 2 +@subsection Second Try + +Here is our second try at this program. + +We modify @file{poke.c} to use preprocessor macros to control what +features are available. (I've cheated a bit by using the same macro +names which autoconf will use). + +@example +#include <stdio.h> + +#ifdef STDC_HEADERS +#include <stdlib.h> +#endif + +#include <sys/types.h> + +#ifdef HAVE_UTIME_H +#include <utime.h> +#endif + +#ifndef HAVE_UTIME_NULL + +#include <time.h> + +#ifndef HAVE_STRUCT_UTIMBUF + +struct utimbuf +@{ + long actime; + long modtime; +@}; + +#endif + +static int +utime_now (file) + char *file; +@{ + struct utimbuf now; + + now.actime = now.modtime = time (NULL); + return utime (file, &now); +@} + +#define utime(f, p) utime_now (f) + +#endif /* HAVE_UTIME_NULL */ + +int +main (argc, argv) + int argc; + char **argv; +@{ + if (argc != 2) + @{ + fprintf (stderr, "Usage: poke file\n"); + exit (1); + @} + + if (utime (argv[1], NULL) < 0) + @{ + perror ("utime"); + exit (1); + @} + + exit (0); +@} +@end example + +Here is the associated @file{Makefile}. We've added support for the +preprocessor flags we use. We've also added @samp{install} and +@samp{clean} targets. + +@example +# Set this to your installation directory. +bindir = /usr/local/bin + +# Uncomment this if you have the standard ANSI/ISO C header files. +# STDC_HDRS = -DSTDC_HEADERS + +# Uncomment this if you have utime.h. +# UTIME_H = -DHAVE_UTIME_H + +# Uncomment this if utime (FILE, NULL) works on your system. +# UTIME_NULL = -DHAVE_UTIME_NULL + +# Uncomment this if struct utimbuf is defined in utime.h. +# UTIMBUF = -DHAVE_STRUCT_UTIMBUF + +CC = gcc +CFLAGS = -g -O2 + +ALL_CFLAGS = $(STDC_HDRS) $(UTIME_H) $(UTIME_NULL) $(UTIMBUF) $(CFLAGS) + +all: poke + +poke: poke.o + $(CC) -o poke $(ALL_CFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) poke.o + +.c.o: + $(CC) -c $(ALL_CFLAGS) poke.c + +install: poke + cp poke $(bindir)/poke + +clean: + rm poke poke.o +@end example + +Some problems with this approach should be clear. + +Users who want to compile poke will have to know how @samp{utime} works +on their systems, so that they can uncomment the @file{Makefile} +correctly. + +The installation is done using @samp{cp}, but many systems have an +@samp{install} program which may be used, and which supports optional +features such as stripping debugging information out of the installed +binary. + +The use of @file{Makefile} variables like @samp{CC}, @samp{CFLAGS} and +@samp{LDFLAGS} follows the requirements of the GNU standards. This is +convenient for all packages, since it reduces surprises for users. +However, it is easy to get the details wrong, and wind up with a +slightly nonstandard distribution. + +@node Getting Started Example 3 +@subsection Third Try + +For our third try at this program, we will write a @file{configure.in} +script to discover the configuration features on the host system, rather +than requiring the user to edit the @file{Makefile}. We will also write +a @file{Makefile.am} rather than a @file{Makefile}. + +The only change to @file{poke.c} is to add a line at the start of the +file: +@smallexample +#include "config.h" +@end smallexample + +The new @file{configure.in} file is as follows. + +@example +AC_INIT(poke.c) +AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(poke, 1.0) +AM_CONFIG_HEADER(config.h:config.in) +AC_PROG_CC +AC_HEADER_STDC +AC_CHECK_HEADERS(utime.h) +AC_EGREP_HEADER(utimbuf, utime.h, AC_DEFINE(HAVE_STRUCT_UTIMBUF)) +AC_FUNC_UTIME_NULL +AC_OUTPUT(Makefile) +@end example + +The first four macros in this file, and the last one, were described +above; see @ref{Write configure.in}.

Note how simple this is +compared to our earlier @file{Makefile}. + +@example +bin_PROGRAMS = poke + +poke_SOURCES = poke.c +@end example + +This means that we should build a single program name @samp{poke}. It +should be installed in the binary directory, which we called +@samp{bindir} earlier. The program @samp{poke} is built from the source +file @file{poke.c}. + +We must also write a @file{acconfig.h} file. Besides @samp{PACKAGE} and +@samp{VERSION}, which must be mentioned for all packages which use +automake, we must include @samp{HAVE_STRUCT_UTIMBUF}, since we mentioned +it in an @samp{AC_DEFINE}. + +@example +/* Name of package. */ +#undef PACKAGE + +/* Version of package. */ +#undef VERSION + +/* Whether utime.h defines struct utimbuf. */ +#undef HAVE_STRUCT_UTIMBUF +@end example + +@node Generate Files in Example +@subsection Generate Files + +We must now generate the other files, using the following commands. + +@smallexample +aclocal +autoconf +autoheader +automake +@end smallexample + +When we run @samp{autoheader}, it will remind us of any macros we forgot +to add to @file{acconfig.h}. + +When we run @samp{automake}, it will want to add some files to our +distribution.

It describes how the code should be +built. It consists of definitions of automake variables. It may also +contain ordinary Makefile targets. This file is only needed when using +automake (newer tools normally use automake, but there are still older +tools which have not been converted, in which the developer writes +@file{Makefile.in} directly). @xref{Write Makefile.am}. + +@item acconfig.h +@cindex @file{acconfig.h} +When the configure script creates a portability header file, by using +@samp{AM_CONFIG_HEADER} (or, if not using automake, +@samp{AC_CONFIG_HEADER}), this file is used to describe macros which are +not recognized by the @samp{autoheader} command. This is normally a +fairly uninteresting file, consisting of a collection of @samp{#undef} +lines with comments. Normally any call to @samp{AC_DEFINE} in +@file{configure.in} will require a line in this file. @xref{Write +acconfig.h}. + +@item acinclude.m4 +@cindex @file{acinclude.m4} +This file is not always required. It defines local autoconf macros. +These macros may then be used in @file{configure.in}. If you don't need +any local autoconf macros, then you don't need this file at all. In +fact, in general, you never need local autoconf macros, since you can +put everything in @file{configure.in}, but sometimes a local macro is +convenient. + +Newer tools may omit @file{acinclude.m4}, and instead use a +subdirectory, typically named @file{m4}, and define +@samp{ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I m4} in @file{Makefile.am} to force +@samp{aclocal} to look there for macro definitions. The macro +definitions are then placed in separate files in that directory. + +The @file{acinclude.m4} file is only used when using automake; in older +tools, the developer writes @file{aclocal.m4} directly, if it is needed. +@end table + +@node Generated Developer Files +@subsection Generated Developer Files + +The following files would be generated by the developer. + +When using automake, these files are normally not generated manually +after the first time. Instead, the generated @file{Makefile} contains +rules to automatically rebuild the files as required. When +@samp{AM_MAINTAINER_MODE} is used in @file{configure.in} (the normal +case in Cygnus code), the automatic rebuilding rules will only be +defined if you configure using the @samp{--enable-maintainer-mode} +option. + +When using automatic rebuilding, it is important to ensure that all the +various tools have been built and installed on your @samp{PATH}. Using +automatic rebuilding is highly recommended, so much so that I'm not +going to explain what you have to do if you don't use it. + +@table @file +@item configure +@cindex @file{configure} +This is the configure script which will be run when building the +package.

This file contains definitions of autoconf +macros which @samp{autoconf} will use when generating the file +@file{configure}. These autoconf macros may be defined by you in +@file{acinclude.m4} or they may be defined by other packages such as +automake, libtool or gettext. If you aren't using automake, you will +normally write this file yourself; in that case, if @file{configure.in} +uses only standard autoconf macros, this file will not be needed at all. + +@item config.in +@cindex @file{config.in} +@cindex @file{config.h.in} +This file is created by @samp{autoheader} based on @file{acconfig.h} and +@file{configure.in}. At build time, the configure script will define +some of the macros in it to create @file{config.h}, which may then be +included by your program. This permits your C code to use preprocessor +conditionals to change its behaviour based on the characteristics of the +host system. This file may also be called @file{config.h.in}. + +@item stamp.h-in +@cindex @file{stamp-h.in} +This rather uninteresting file, which I omitted from the picture, is +generated by @samp{automake}. It always contains the string +@samp{timestamp}. It is used as a timestamp file indicating whether +@file{config.in} is up to date.

In some cases, +this is extended to a four part form: +@var{cpu}-@var{manufacturer}-@var{kernel}-@var{operating_system}. + +When using a configuration name in a configure option, it is normally +not necessary to specify an entire name. In particular, the +@var{manufacturer} field is often omitted, leading to strings such as +@samp{i386-linux} or @samp{sparc-sunos}. The shell script +@file{config.sub} will translate these shortened strings into the +canonical form. autoconf will arrange for @file{config.sub} to be run +automatically when it is needed. + +The fields of a configuration name are as follows: + +@table @var +@item cpu +The type of processor. This is typically something like @samp{i386} or +@samp{sparc}. More specific variants are used as well, such as +@samp{mipsel} to indicate a little endian MIPS processor. +@item manufacturer +A somewhat freeform field which indicates the manufacturer of the +system. This is often simply @samp{unknown}. Other common strings are +@samp{pc} for an IBM PC compatible system, or the name of a workstation +vendor, such as @samp{sun}. +@item operating_system +The name of the operating system which is run on the system. This will +be something like @samp{solaris2.5} or @samp{irix6.3}. There is no +particular restriction on the version number, and strings like +@samp{aix4.1.4.0} are seen. For an embedded system, which has no +operating system, this field normally indicates the type of object file +format, such as @samp{elf} or @samp{coff}. +@item kernel +This is used mainly for GNU/Linux. A typical GNU/Linux configuration +name is @samp{i586-pc-linux-gnulibc1}. In this case the kernel, +@samp{linux}, is separated from the operating system, @samp{gnulibc1}. +@end table + +The shell script @file{config.guess} will normally print the correct +configuration name for the system on which it is run. It does by +running @samp{uname} and by examining other characteristics of the +system. + +Because @file{config.guess} can normally determine the configuration +name for a machine, it is normally only necessary to specify a +configuration name when building a cross-compiler or when building using +a cross-compiler. + +@node Using Configuration Names +@section Using Configuration Names + +A configure script will sometimes have to make a decision based on a +configuration name. You will need to do this if you have to compile +code differently based on something which can not be tested using a +standard autoconf feature test. + +It is normally better to test for particular features, rather than to +test for a particular system. This is because as Unix evolves, +different systems copy features from one another. Even if you need to +determine whether the feature is supported based on a configuration +name, you should define a macro which describes the feature, rather than +defining a macro which describes the particular system you are on. + +Testing for a particular system is normally done using a case statement +in @file{configure.in}. The case statement might look something like +the following, assuming that @samp{host} is a shell variable holding a +canonical configuration name (which will be the case if +@file{configure.in} uses the @samp{AC_CANONICAL_HOST} or +@samp{AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM} macro). + +@smallexample +case "$@{host@}" in +i[3-7]86-*-linux-gnu*) do something ;; +sparc*-sun-solaris2.[56789]*) do something ;; +sparc*-sun-solaris*) do something ;; +mips*-*-elf*) do something ;; +esac +@end smallexample + +It is particularly important to use @samp{*} after the operating system +field, in order to match the version number which will be generated by +@file{config.guess}. + +In most cases you must be careful to match a range of processor types. +For most processor families, a trailing @samp{*} suffices, as in +@samp{mips*} above. For the i386 family, something along the lines of +@samp{i[3-7]86} suffices at present. For the m68k family, you will +need something like @samp{m68*}. Of course, if you do not need to match +on the processor, it is simpler to just replace the entire field by a +@samp{*}, as in @samp{*-*-irix*}. + +@node Cross Compilation Tools +@chapter Cross Compilation Tools +@cindex cross tools + +The GNU configure and build system can be used to build @dfn{cross +compilation} tools.

When it is necessary to +distinguish this case from the cross compilation case, such a compiler +is called a @dfn{native compiler}. Similarly, we speak of native +assemblers, etc. + +Although the debugger is not strictly speaking a compilation tool, it is +nevertheless meaningful to speak of a cross debugger: a debugger which +is used to debug code which runs on another system. Everything that is +said below about configuring cross compilation tools applies to the +debugger as well. + +@node Host and Target +@section Host and Target +@cindex host system +@cindex target system + +When building cross compilation tools, there are two different systems +involved: the system on which the tools will run, and the system for +which the tools generate code. + +The system on which the tools will run is called the @dfn{host} system. + +The system for which the tools generate code is called the @dfn{target} +system. + +For example, suppose you have a compiler which runs on a GNU/Linux +system and generates ELF programs for a MIPS embedded system. In this +case the GNU/Linux system is the host, and the MIPS ELF system is the +target. Such a compiler could be called a GNU/Linux cross MIPS ELF +compiler, or, equivalently, a @samp{i386-linux-gnu} cross +@samp{mips-elf} compiler. + +Naturally, most programs are not cross compilation tools. For those +programs, it does not make sense to speak of a target. It only makes +sense to speak of a target for tools like @samp{gcc} or the +@samp{binutils} which actually produce running code.

However, in the general case it can be quite difficult to +determine whether the differences between two configuration names are +significant or not. Therefore, by convention, if the user specifies a +@samp{--target} option without specifying a @samp{--host} option, it is +assumed that the user wants to configure a cross compilation tool. + +The variables @samp{target} and @samp{target_alias} should be handled +differently. + +In general, whenever the user may actually see a string, +@samp{target_alias} should be used. This includes anything which may +appear in the file system, such as a directory name or part of a tool +name.

This is because a wide variety of +@samp{--target} options may map into the same canonical configuration +name. You should not attempt to duplicate the canonicalization done by +@samp{config.sub} in your own code. + +By convention, cross tools are installed with a prefix of the argument +used with the @samp{--target} option, also known as @samp{target_alias} +(@pxref{Using the Target Type}).

This includes +libraries such as @samp{bfd} and @samp{tcl}. These libraries are built +with the host compiler, and are linked into programs like the binutils +or gcc which run on the host. + +Target libraries are built with the target compiler. If gcc is present +in the source tree, then the target compiler is the gcc that is built +using the host compiler. Target libraries are libraries such as +@samp{newlib} and @samp{libstdc++}. These libraries are not linked into +the host programs, but are instead made available for use with programs +built with the target compiler. + +For the rest of this section, assume that gcc is present in the source +tree, so that it will be used to build the target libraries. + +There is a complication here. The configure process needs to know which +compiler you are going to use to build a tool; otherwise, the feature +tests will not work correctly. The Cygnus tree handles this by not +configuring the target libraries until the target compiler is built. In +order to permit everything to build using a single +@samp{configure}/@samp{make}, the configuration of the target libraries +is actually triggered during the make step. + +When the target libraries are configured, the @samp{--target} option is +not used. Instead, the @samp{--host} option is used with the argument +of the @samp{--target} option for the overall configuration. If no +@samp{--target} option was used for the overall configuration, the +@samp{--host} option will be passed with the output of the +@file{config.guess} shell script. Any @samp{--build} option is passed +down unchanged. + +This translation of configuration options is done because since the +target libraries are compiled with the target compiler, they are being +built in order to run on the target of the overall configuration. By +the definition of host, this means that their host system is the same as +the target system of the overall configuration. + +The same process is used for both a native configuration and a cross +configuration. Even when using a native configuration, the target +libraries will be configured and built using the newly built compiler. +This is particularly important for the C++ libraries, since there is no +reason to assume that the C++ compiler used to build the host tools (if +there even is one) uses the same ABI as the g++ compiler which will be +used to build the target libraries. + +There is one difference between a native configuration and a cross +configuration. In a native configuration, the target libraries are +normally configured and built as siblings of the host tools. In a cross +configuration, the target libraries are normally built in a subdirectory +whose name is the argument to @samp{--target}. This is mainly for +historical reasons. + +To summarize, running @samp{configure} in the Cygnus tree configures all +the host libraries and tools, but does not configure any of the target +libraries. Running @samp{make} then does the following steps: + +@itemize @bullet +@item +Build the host libraries. +@item +Build the host programs, including gcc. Note that we call gcc both a +host program (since it runs on the host) and a target compiler (since it +generates code for the target). +@item +Using the newly built target compiler, configure the target libraries. +@item +Build the target libraries. +@end itemize + +The steps need not be done in precisely this order, since they are +actually controlled by @file{Makefile} targets. + +@node Target Library Configure Scripts +@subsection Target Library Configure Scripts + +There are a few things you must know in order to write a configure +script for a target library. This is just a quick sketch, and beginners +shouldn't worry if they don't follow everything here. + +The target libraries are configured and built using a newly built target +compiler. There may not be any startup files or libraries for this +target compiler. In fact, those files will probably be built as part of +some target library, which naturally means that they will not exist when +your target library is configured. + +This means that the configure script for a target library may not use +any test which requires doing a link. This unfortunately includes many +useful autoconf macros, such as @samp{AC_CHECK_FUNCS}. autoconf macros +which do a compile but not a link, such as @samp{AC_CHECK_HEADERS}, may +be used. + +This is a severe restriction, but normally not a fatal one, as target +libraries can often assume the presence of other target libraries, and +thus know which functions will be available. + +As of this writing, the autoconf macro @samp{AC_PROG_CC} does a link to +make sure that the compiler works. This may fail in a target library, +so target libraries must use a different set of macros to locate the +compiler. See the @file{configure.in} file in a directory like +@file{libiberty} or @file{libgloss} for an example. + +As noted in the previous section, target libraries are sometimes built +in directories which are siblings to the host tools, and are sometimes +built in a subdirectory. The @samp{--with-target-subdir} configure +option will be passed when the library is configured. Its value will be +an empty string if the target library is a sibling. Its value will be +the name of the subdirectory if the target library is in a subdirectory. + +If the overall build is not a native build (i.e., the overall configure +used the @samp{--target} option), then the library will be configured +with the @samp{--with-cross-host} option. The value of this option will +be the host system of the overall build. Recall that the host system of +the library will be the target of the overall build. If the overall +build is a native build, the @samp{--with-cross-host} option will not be +used. + +A library which can be built both standalone and as a target library may +want to install itself into different directories depending upon the +case. When built standalone, or when built native, the library should +be installed in @samp{$(libdir)}. When built as a target library which +is not native, the library should be installed in @samp{$(tooldir)/lib}. +The @samp{--with-cross-host} option may be used to distinguish these +cases. + +This same test of @samp{--with-cross-host} may be used to see whether it +is OK to use link tests in the configure script. If the +@samp{--with-cross-host} option is not used, then the library is being +built either standalone or native, and a link should work. + +@node Make Targets in Cygnus Tree +@subsection Make Targets in Cygnus Tree + +The top level @file{Makefile} in the Cygnus tree defines targets for +every known subdirectory. + +For every subdirectory @var{dir} which holds a host library or program, +the @file{Makefile} target @samp{all-@var{dir}} will build that library +or program. + +There are dependencies among host tools. For example, building gcc +requires first building gas, because the gcc build process invokes the +target assembler. These dependencies are reflected in the top level +@file{Makefile}. + +For every subdirectory @var{dir} which holds a target library, the +@file{Makefile} target @samp{configure-target-@var{dir}} will configure +that library. The @file{Makefile} target @samp{all-target-@var{dir}} +will build that library. + +Every @samp{configure-target-@var{dir}} target depends upon +@samp{all-gcc}, since gcc, the target compiler, is required to configure +the tool. Every @samp{all-target-@var{dir}} target depends upon the +corresponding @samp{configure-target-@var{dir}} target. + +There are several other targets which may be of interest for each +directory: @samp{install-@var{dir}}, @samp{clean-@var{dir}}, and +@samp{check-@var{dir}}. There are also corresponding @samp{target} +versions of these for the target libraries , such as +@samp{install-target-@var{dir}}. + +@node Target libiberty +@subsection Target libiberty + +The @file{libiberty} subdirectory is currently a special case, in that +it is the only directory which is built both using the host compiler and +using the target compiler. + +This is because the files in @file{libiberty} are used when building the +host tools, and they are also incorporated into the @file{libstdc++} +target library as support code. + +This duality does not pose any particular difficulties. It means that +there are targets for both @samp{all-libiberty} and +@samp{all-target-libiberty}. + +In a native configuration, when target libraries are not built in a +subdirectory, the same objects are normally used as both the host build +and the target build. This is normally OK, since libiberty contains +only C code, and in a native configuration the results of the host +compiler and the target compiler are normally interoperable. + +Irix 6 is again an exception here, since the SGI native compiler +defaults to using the @samp{O32} ABI, and gcc defaults to using the +@samp{N32} ABI.

In the Cygnus tree, this make variable +@samp{$(CC_FOR_BUILD)} will hold a compiler for the build system. + +Note that you should not include @file{config.h} in a file you are +compiling with @samp{$(CC_FOR_BUILD)}. The @file{configure} script will +build @file{config.h} with information for the host system. However, +you are compiling the file using a compiler for the build system (a +native compiler).

All of its interesting +features have been incorporated into autoconf. No new programs should +be written to use the Cygnus configure script. + +However, the Cygnus configure script is still used in a few places: at +the top of the Cygnus tree and in a few target libraries in the Cygnus +tree. Until those uses have been replaced with autoconf, some brief +notes are appropriate here. This is not complete documentation, but it +should be possible to use this as a guide while examining the scripts +themselves. + +@menu +* Cygnus Configure Basics:: Cygnus Configure Basics. +* Cygnus Configure in C++ Libraries:: Cygnus Configure in C++ Libraries. +@end menu + +@node Cygnus Configure Basics +@section Cygnus Configure Basics + +Cygnus configure does not use any generated files; there is no program +corresponding to @samp{autoconf}. Instead, there is a single shell +script named @samp{configure} which may be found at the top of the +Cygnus tree. This shell script was written by hand; it was not +generated by autoconf, and it is incorrect, and indeed harmful, to run +@samp{autoconf} in the top level of a Cygnus tree. + +Cygnus configure works in a particular directory by examining the file +@file{configure.in} in that directory. That file is broken into four +separate shell scripts. + +The first is the contents of @file{configure.in} up to a line that +starts with @samp{# per-host:}. This is the common part. + +The second is the rest of @file{configure.in} up to a line that starts +with @samp{# per-target:}. This is the per host part. + +The third is the rest of @file{configure.in} up to a line that starts +with @samp{# post-target:}. This is the per target part. + +The fourth is the remainder of @file{configure.in}. This is the post +target part. + +If any of these comment lines are missing, the corresponding shell +script is empty. + +Cygnus configure will first execute the common part. This must set the +shell variable @samp{srctrigger} to the name of a source file, to +confirm that Cygnus configure is looking at the right directory. This +may set the shell variables @samp{package_makefile_frag} and +@samp{package_makefile_rules_frag}. + +Cygnus configure will next set the @samp{build} and @samp{host} shell +variables, and execute the per host part. This may set the shell +variable @samp{host_makefile_frag}. + +Cygnus configure will next set the @samp{target} variable, and execute +the per target part. This may set the shell variable +@samp{target_makefile_frag}. + +Any of these scripts may set the @samp{subdirs} shell variable. This +variable is a list of subdirectories where a @file{Makefile.in} file may +be found. Cygnus configure will automatically look for a +@file{Makefile.in} file in the current directory. The @samp{subdirs} +shell variable is not normally used, and I believe that the only +directory which uses it at present is @file{newlib}. + +For each @file{Makefile.in}, Cygnus configure will automatically create +a @file{Makefile} by adding definitions for @samp{make} variables such +as @samp{host} and @samp{target}, and automatically editing the values +of @samp{make} variables such as @samp{prefix} if they are present. + +Also, if any of the @samp{makefile_frag} shell variables are set, Cygnus +configure will interpret them as file names relative to either the +working directory or the source directory, and will read the contents of +the file into the generated @file{Makefile}. The file contents will be +read in after the first line in @file{Makefile.in} which starts with +@samp{####}. + +These @file{Makefile} fragments are used to customize behaviour for a +particular host or target. They serve to select particular files to +compile, and to define particular preprocessor macros by providing +values for @samp{make} variables which are then used during compilation. +Cygnus configure, unlike autoconf, normally does not do feature tests, +and normally requires support to be added manually for each new host. + +The @file{Makefile} fragment support is similar to the autoconf +@samp{AC_SUBST_FILE} macro. + +After creating each @file{Makefile}, the post target script will be run +(i.e., it may be run several times). This script may further customize +the @file{Makefile}. When it is run, the shell variable @samp{Makefile} +will hold the name of the @file{Makefile}, including the appropriate +directory component. + +Like an autoconf generated @file{configure} script, Cygnus configure +will create a file named @file{config.status} which, when run, will +automatically recreate the configuration. The @file{config.status} file +will simply execute the Cygnus configure script again with the +appropriate arguments. + +Any of the parts of @file{configure.in} may set the shell variables +@samp{files} and @samp{links}. Cygnus configure will set up symlinks +from the names in @samp{links} to the files named in @samp{files}. This +is similar to the autoconf @samp{AC_LINK_FILES} macro. + +Finally, any of the parts of @file{configure.in} may set the shell +variable @samp{configdirs} to a set of subdirectories. If it is set, +Cygnus configure will recursively run the configure process in each +subdirectory. If the subdirectory uses Cygnus configure, it will +contain a @file{configure.in} file but no @file{configure} file, in +which case Cygnus configure will invoke itself recursively. If the +subdirectory has a @file{configure} file, Cygnus configure assumes that +it is an autoconf generated @file{configure} script, and simply invokes +it directly. + +@node Cygnus Configure in C++ Libraries +@section Cygnus Configure in C++ Libraries +@cindex @file{libstdc++} configure +@cindex @file{libio} configure +@cindex @file{libg++} configure + +The C++ library configure system, written by Per Bothner, deserves +special mention.

This +approach is used in the libraries @file{libio}, @file{libstdc++}, and +@file{libg++}. + +Most of the @file{Makefile} information is written out by the shell +script @file{libio/config.shared}. Each @file{configure.in} file sets +certain shell variables, and then invokes @file{config.shared} to create +two package @file{Makefile} fragments. These fragments are then +incorporated into the resulting @file{Makefile} by the Cygnus configure +script. + +The file @file{_G_config.h} is created in the @file{libio} object +directory by running the shell script @file{libio/gen-params}.

An obvious example is the +@samp{-msoft-float} option supported on several processors.

When gcc +compiles target libraries more than once, the resulting libraries are +called @dfn{multilibs}. + +Multilibs are not really part of the GNU configure and build system, but +we discuss them here since they require support in the @file{configure} +scripts and @file{Makefile}s used for target libraries. + +@menu +* Multilibs in gcc:: Multilibs in gcc. +* Multilibs in Target Libraries:: Multilibs in Target Libraries. +@end menu + +@node Multilibs in gcc +@section Multilibs in gcc + +In gcc, multilibs are defined by setting the variable +@samp{MULTILIB_OPTIONS} in the target @file{Makefile} fragment.

The output @samp{.;} means +that no multilibs are used. In general, the output is a sequence of +lines, one per multilib. The first part of each line, up to the +@samp{;}, is the name of the multilib directory. The second part is a +list of compiler options separated by @samp{@@} characters. + +Multilibs are built in a tree of directories. The top of the tree, +represented by @samp{.} in the list of multilib directories, is the +default library to use when no special compiler options are used.

The two cases are separate because +it isn't always necessary to regenerate all the files after running +@samp{config.status --recheck}.

It might be possible to make them work in place, or it might be +possible to install them in some subdirectory; so far these approaches +have not been implemented. +@end table + +@node Index +@unnumbered Index + +@printindex cp + +@contents +@bye diff --git a/gnu/usr.bin/binutils/gas/config/te-obsd.h b/gnu/usr.bin/binutils/gas/config/te-obsd.h new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..1f3770e3120 --- /dev/null +++ b/gnu/usr.bin/binutils/gas/config/te-obsd.h @@ -0,0 +1,24 @@ +/* te-obsd.h -- OpenBSD target environment declarations. + Copyright 2003 + Free Software Foundation, Inc. + + This file is part of GAS, the GNU Assembler. + + GAS is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify + it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by + the Free Software Foundation; either version 2, or (at your option) + any later version. + + GAS is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, + but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of + MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

You do this by -creating an directory where object files will be stored, setdirectory -to that directory and do a configure command: - - {Boot}Cygnus:src:mpw-configure --target <name> --cc <compiler> --srcdir {Boot}Cygnus:src: --prefix <whatever> - -If the source directory is not in your {Commands} list, then you must -supply a full pathname to mpw-configure, since mpw-configure invokes -itself after switching into each subdirectory. Using a relative -pathname, even something like ':mpw-configure', will therefore not work. - -<name> must be a known target. Valid ones include "m68k-apple-macos", -"powerpc-apple-macos", "i386-unknown-go32", "mips-idt-ecoff", and -"sh-hitachi-hms". Not all target types are accepted for all of the -tools yet. - -<compiler> must be the name of the compiler to use. It defaults to "mpwc". - - (m68k) - mpwc MPW C - sc68k Symantec C - mwc68k Metrowerks C (Codewarrior) - gcc68k GCC - - (powerpc) - ppcc PPCC - mrc Macintosh on RisC (Mister C, aka(?) Frankenstein) - scppc Symantec C - mwcppc Metrowerks C (Codewarrior) - gccppc GCC - -Not all compilers will compile all tools equally well! For m68k Macs, -MPW C has the best record so far (it has problems, but they can be -worked around), while for PowerMacs, CodeWarrior is the only compiler -that has successfully compiled everything into running code. - -<prefix> is the path that "gcc" will prepend when looking for tools -to execute. GCC_EXEC_PREFIX overrides this value, so you need not -include it if you plan to use GCC_EXEC_PREFIX. - -As an example, here is the configure line that you could use to build -native PowerMac GCC: - -"{Boot}"Cygnus:src:mpw-configure --cc mwcppc --target powerpc-apple-macos --srcdir "{Boot}"Cygnus:src: --prefix "{Boot}"GNUTools: - -* Building - -If you use CodeWarrior, you *must* first set MWCIncludes to -{CIncludes}. This is because you will be building MPW tools, and -their standard I/O works by making references to data that is part of -the MPW Shell, which means that the code must be compiled and linked -with macros that refer to that data, and those macros are in -{CIncludes}, not the default {MWCIncludes}. Without this change, you -will encounter problems compiling libiberty/mpw.c, but tweaking that -file only masks the real problem, and does not fix it. - -The command - - mpw-build - -will build everything. Building will take over an hour on a Quadra 800 -or PowerMac 8100/110, longer if the sources are on a shared volume. - -You may see some warnings; these are mostly likely benign, typically -disagreements about declarations of library and system functions. - -* Installing - -To install the just-built tools, use the command - - mpw-build install - -This part of the installation procedure just copies files to the -location specified at configure time by <prefix>, and, in some cases, -renames them from temporary internal names to their usual names. This -install process is *not* the same as what the Install script does; -Install can copy tools from the installation location chosen at -configuration time to a user-chosen place, and sets up a UserStartup -file. Note that while the Install script is optional, the install -build action performs some tasks would be very hard to replicate -manually, so you should always do it before using the tools. - -* Known Problems With Using Various Compilers to Build - -Most versions of MPW C have problems with compiling GNU software. - -MPW C 3.2.x has preprocessing bugs that render it incapable of -compiling the BFD library, so it can't be used at all for building BFD. - -MPW C 3.3, 3.3.1, and 3.3.2 will spontaneously claim to have found -errors in the source code, but in fact the code is perfectly fine. If -this happens, just set the working directory back to the top-level -objdir (where the configure command above was performed), and type -"mpw-build all" again. If it goes on through the supposed error, then -you got one of the spurious errors. A full build may require a number -of these restarts. - -MPW C 3.3.3 seems to work OK, at least with the aid of a number of -workarounds that are in the sources (look for #ifdef MPW_C). - -Versions of MPW Make earlier than 4.0d2 have exhibited bizarre behavior, -failure to substitute variables and the like. - -Metrowerks CW6 PPC linker (MWLinkPPC) seems to do bad things with memory -if the "Modern Memory Manager" is turned on (in the Memory control panel), -but works OK if it is turned off. - -Metrowerks CW6 loses bigtime compiling opcodes:ppc-opc.c, which has -some deeply nested macros. (CW7 is OK.) There is a way to patch the -file, by substituting constant values. If you need to do this, -contact shebs@cygnus.com for details. - -<Gestalt.h> is missing from {CIncludes} in the MPW version that comes -with CW7. You can just copy the one in CW7's {MWCIncludes}. - -CW8 and later have changes to headers and such that will require changes -to the source in order to be able to use them to rebuild. - -KNOWN BUGS - -The declarations for memcpy and memcmp in some versions of header files -may conflict with GCC's builtin definition. Either use -fno-builtin -or ignore the warnings. - -This is not a bug, but - watch out for cr/nl translation! For instance, -if config/mpw-mh-mpw is not properly translated because it has been -copied or updated separately, then everything will almost build, but -you will get puzzling error messages from make or the compiler. - -'/' or ' ' embedded in any device, directory, or file name may or may -not work. - -objcopy -O srec foo.o makes random output filenames. - -Mac-x-mips requires -mgas but Unix hosts don't. - -GDB will frequently require a '/' on the front of a device name in order -to recognize it as an absolute rather than a relative pathname. - -GDB doesn't seem to use the printer port correctly, although it tries. - -The cursor doesn't always spin as much as it should. To get elaborate -statistics and warnings about spin rates, add this to UserStartup: - - set MEASURE_SPIN all - export MEASURE_SPIN diff --git a/gnu/usr.bin/binutils/mpw-build.in b/gnu/usr.bin/binutils/mpw-build.in deleted file mode 100644 index 86d9530fa3b..00000000000 --- a/gnu/usr.bin/binutils/mpw-build.in +++ /dev/null @@ -1,204 +0,0 @@ -# Top-level script fragment to build everything for MPW. -
