* | eliminate use of SHARED macro to suppress visibility attributes | Rich Felker | 2015-11-11 | 1 | -2/+0 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | this is the first and simplest stage of removal of the SHARED macro, which will eventually allow libc.a and libc.so to be produced from the same object files. the original motivation for these #ifdefs which are now being removed was to allow building a static-only libc using a compiler that does not support visibility. however, SHARED was the wrong condition to test for this anyway; various assembly-language sources refer to hidden symbols and declare them with the .hidden directive, making it wrong to define the referenced symbols as non-hidden. if there is a need in the future to build libc using compilers that lack visibility, support could be moved to the build system or perhaps the __PIC__ macro could be checked instead of SHARED. | ||||

* | rework cancellation weak alias logic not to depend on archive order | Rich Felker | 2014-07-06 | 1 | -0/+18 |
if the order of object files in the static archive libc.a was not respected by the linker, the old logic could wrongly cause POSIX symbols outside of the ISO C namespace to be pulled into pure C programs. this should not happen with well-behaved linkers, but relying on the link order was a bad idea anyway. files are renamed to better reflect their contents now that they don't need names to control their order as members in the archive file. |
