Thu May 30 03:21:57 1996 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com> * FAQ: Document need of gperf program for developers. * elf/elf.h: Fix typos in comments. * libio/stdio.h [!__STRICT_ANSI__ || _POSIX_SOURCE]: Add prototypes for `ctermid' and `cuserid'. * locale/programs/locale.c: Switch to user selected locale before printing variables. * math/Makefile [$(long-double-fcts)==yes]: Define long-m-routines and long-c-routines. Only if the `long double' data type is available we need to compile the functions. (libm-routines): Add $(long-m-routines). (routines): Remove isinfl, isnanl. Use new file s_isinfl and s_isnanl instead if `long double' is available. * math/math.h: Include <mathcalls.h> again to define `long double' functions. * math/math_private.h: Define data types, prototypes and access macros for `long double'. * stdlib/stdlib.h: Add prototypes for `strtoll' and `strtoull'. [GCC2 && OPTIMIZE]: Define strto{,u}ll as inline function which calls __strto{,u}q_internal. * stdlib/strfmon.c: Replace PTR by `void *'. * stdlib/strtoq.c: Define strtoll as weak alias. * stdlib/strtouq.c: Define strtoull as weak alias. * string/tester.c: Correct `strsep' test. * sysdeps/generic/strsep.c: Make compatible with BSD version. Trailing characters of skip set are not skipped. In this case empty tokens are returned. * sysdeps/i386/isinfl.c, sysdeps/i386/isnanl.c, sysdeps/ieee754/isinf.c, sysdeps/ieee754/isinfl.c, sysdeps/ieee754/isnan.c, sysdeps/ieee754/isnanl.c: Removed. We now use the versions part of libm. * sysdeps/i386/strsep.S: Removed. Generic C version is of similar speed. * sysdeps/i386/strtok.S: Remove support for `strsep'. * sysdeps/libm-i387/e_acosl.S, sysdeps/libm-i387/s_ceill.S, sysdeps/libm-i387/s_copysignl.S, sysdeps/libm-i387/s_finitel.S, sysdeps/libm-i387/s_floorl.S, sysdeps/libm-i387/s_isinfl.c, sysdeps/libm-i387/s_isnanl.c, sysdeps/libm-i387/s_nextafterl.c, sysdeps/libm-i387/s_rintl.S, sysdeps/libm-i387/s_significandl.S: New i387 specific math functions implementing `long double' versions. * sysdeps/libm-ieee754/s_ceill.c, sysdeps/libm-ieee754/s_copysignl.c, sysdeps/libm-ieee754/s_fabsl.c, sysdeps/libm-ieee754/s_finitel.c, sysdeps/libm-ieee754/s_floorl.c, sysdeps/libm-ieee754/s_isinfl.c, sysdeps/libm-ieee754/s_isnanl.c, sysdeps/libm-ieee754/s_nextafterl.c, sysdeps/libm-ieee754/s_rintl.c, sysdeps/libm-ieee754/s_scalbnl.c, sysdeps/libm-ieee754/s_significandl.c: New generic `long double' versions of libm functions. * sysdeps/libm-i387/e_exp.S: Add a few comments to explain the Intel FPU nonsense. * sysdeps/libm-i387/s_ceil.S, sysdeps/libm-i387/s_ceilf.S, sysdeps/libm-i387/s_floor.S, sysdeps/libm-i387/s_floorf.S: Correct handling of local variables. The old version created a stack frame but stored the values outside. * sysdeps/libm-ieee754/s_isinf.c, sysdeps/libm-ieee754/s_isnan.c [!NO_LONG_DOUBLE]: Define alias with `long double' versions name. * login/pututline_r.c: Include sys/stat.h. Fix typos. according to currently used locale for category LC_CTYPE by inet_nsap_ntoa. Now in <arpa/inet.h>. _IO_dup2 to contain complete parameter list.

A 31-bit ISO 10646 character in UTF-8 encoding has that many bytes. * locale/langinfo.h: New element _NL_CTYPE_MB_CUR_MAX. * locale/categories.def: Add description of field _NL_CTYPE_MB_CUR_MAX. * locale/Makefile (routines): Add mb_cur_max. * locale/mb_cur_max.c: New file. This function gets called when the macro MB_CUR_MAX is used. * locale/C-ctype.c: Initialize new mb_cur_max field. * locale/localeinfo.h: Change magic value because of incompatible change. * locale/programs/ld-ctype.c: Determine value of mb_cur_max according to current character set and write it out with the rest. * stdlib/stdlib.h (MB_CUR_MAX): Not constant anymore. Get value according to currently used locale for catefory LC_CTYPE by calling the function __ctype_get_mb_cur_max. Tue May 28 03:27:46 1996 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com> * FAQ: Fix some typos. Tell that for Linux the kernel header files are necessary. * PROJECTS: New file. List of open jobs for glibc. * Makefile (distribute): Add PROJECTS. * crypt/GNUmakefile (headers): New variable. Mention crypt.h. * crypt/crypt.h: Header for crypt functions. * elf/elf.h: Add some new constants from recent Cygnus ELF header files. * login/getutid_r.c: Test for correct type. Don't depend on ut_type and ut_id unless _HAVE_UT_TYPE and _HAVE_UT_ID resp. are defined. Make really compliant with specification. * login/getutline_r.c, login/pututline_r.c: Don't depend on ut_type and ut_id unless _HAVE_UT_TYPE and _HAVE_UT_ID resp. are defined. Make really compliant with specification. * login/setutent_r.c: Don't depend on ut_type and ut_id unless _HAVE_UT_TYPE and _HAVE_UT_ID resp. are defined. * login/login.c, login/logout.c, login/logwtmp.c: Complete rewrite. Now based on getut*/setut* functions. * stdlib/strtol.c: Undo changes of Wed May 22 01:48:54 1996. This prevented using this file in other GNU packages. * sysdeps/gnu/utmpbits.h: Define _HAVE_UT_TYPE, _HAVE_UT_ID, and _HAVE_UT_TV because struct utmp has these members. * sysdeps/libm-i387/e_exp.S: Correct exp(+-Inf) case. * utmp.h: New file. Wrapper around login/utmp.h. * elf/dl-error.c (struct catch): New type. (catch): New static variable, struct catch *. (catch_env, signalled_errstring, signalled_objname): Variables removed. (_dl_signal_error): If CATCH is non-null, set its errstring and objname members and jump to CATCH->env. If it is null, call _dl_sysdep_fatal with a standard message. * elf/rtld.c (dl_main): Explode `doit' function into dl_main's body. No longer use _dl_catch_error.

| | | | | | | | * login/pututline_r.c: Use struct assignment instead of memcpy. * login/getutline_r.c: Use strncmp instead of comparing two pointers that will only be equal if you are overwriting the data and screwing yourself anyway.
