From d4e157aaaead89474366f58fa57e035441a2bd8b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joseph Myers Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2014 19:44:31 +0000 Subject: Remove __libc_creat function name. glibc has lots of __libc_* function names that no longer serve any purpose (are not used for any calls or exported at a public symbol version). This patch removes __libc_creat. It has the effect of creat becoming a strong symbol instead of a weak symbol in various cases, but that's fine; in shared libraries it doesn't matter at all, while for static linking the only other symbol sometimes defined in the same object is creat64, and whenever creat64 is a reserved name so is creat. Other such cases of unnecessary __libc_* symbols are expected to be dealt with in separate patches over time. Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that the disassembly of installed shared libraries is unchanged by the patch). * include/fcntl.h (__libc_creat): Remove declaration. * io/creat.c (__libc_creat): Rename to creat. (creat): Do not define as alias. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/creat.c (creat64): Define as alias of creat instead of __libc_creat. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/generic/creat.c (__libc_creat): Rename to creat. (creat): Do not define as alias. [__WORDSIZE == 64] (creat64): Define as alias of creat instead of __libc_creat. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list (creat): Do not define __libc_creat name. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/wordsize-64/syscalls.list (creat): Likewise. --- sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/creat.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha') diff --git a/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/creat.c b/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/creat.c index 9e661bab04..7a5afed58c 100644 --- a/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/creat.c +++ b/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/creat.c @@ -5,4 +5,4 @@ could have overridden that with a create64.c, but we might as well do the right thing and set up creat64 as an alias. */ #include -weak_alias(__libc_creat, creat64) +weak_alias(creat, creat64) -- cgit 1.4.1
