From 7a4cb4ad1130e43e1256f85cea38a3227320f944 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joseph Myers Date: Tue, 27 Oct 2015 10:48:05 +0000 Subject: Remove TLS configure tests. There seemed to be support in response to for removing configure tests that exist only to produce errors, where we expect that tool versions failing the tests would also fail the tests of minimum GCC / binutils versions. This patch removes the tests for TLS support as one instance of such tests. Since the addition of TLS emulation support in GCC 4.3, I don't think these tests would have failed even if proper TLS support (as required by glibc) was missing in that architecture's GCC back end, so any new glibc ports wanting a substantive test (if there are actual GCC or binutils versions for those architectures, with supported version numbers, missing TLS support) would have needed an architecture-specific test anyway. Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared libraries are unchanged by the patch). * configure.ac (libc_cv_gcc___thread): Remove configure test. (libc_cv_gcc_tls_model_attr): Likewise. * configure: Regenerated. --- configure.ac | 30 ------------------------------ 1 file changed, 30 deletions(-) (limited to 'configure.ac') diff --git a/configure.ac b/configure.ac index 4879c48db7..1be44f596e 100644 --- a/configure.ac +++ b/configure.ac @@ -1564,36 +1564,6 @@ if test "$libc_cv_gcc_builtin_redirection" = no; then AC_MSG_ERROR([support for the symbol redirection needed]) fi -dnl Check whether the compiler supports the __thread keyword. -AC_CACHE_CHECK([for __thread], libc_cv_gcc___thread, -[cat > conftest.c <<\EOF -__thread int a = 42; -EOF -if AC_TRY_COMMAND([${CC-cc} $CFLAGS $CPPFLAGS -c conftest.c >&AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD]); then - libc_cv_gcc___thread=yes -else - libc_cv_gcc___thread=no -fi -rm -f conftest*]) -if test "$libc_cv_gcc___thread" = no; then - AC_MSG_ERROR([support for the __thread keyword is required]) -fi - -dnl Check whether the compiler supports the tls_model attribute. -AC_CACHE_CHECK([for tls_model attribute], libc_cv_gcc_tls_model_attr, [dnl -cat > conftest.c <<\EOF -extern __thread int a __attribute__((tls_model ("initial-exec"))); -EOF -if AC_TRY_COMMAND([${CC-cc} $CFLAGS $CPPFLAGS -S -Werror conftest.c >&AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD]); then - libc_cv_gcc_tls_model_attr=yes -else - libc_cv_gcc_tls_model_attr=no -fi -rm -f conftest*]) -if test "$libc_cv_gcc_tls_model_attr" = no; then - AC_MSG_ERROR([support for the tls_model attribute is required]) -fi - dnl Determine how to disable generation of FMA instructions.
