EHFrame{N} IIRC is a special cue to ld64 that it should treat the unwind
in the object as "special/legacy" .. [these days everything is .cfi_xxxx
(except, cctools-as, as you noted)] .. without that much confusion arises
with ld64's atom-isation of the eh_frame section.
xxxx.eh labels are not needed for darwin ld64 >= 85.2.1 (i.e. darwin9,
xcode 3.1.4) to all intents and purposes, that's all that matters now,
since I think that anyone trying to build on 10.4/darwin8/xcode2.5 would
have to use a later ld64 (from odcctools) for other reasons.
The unwind info isn't 100% correct at all points during the epilogue,
and not annotating is just as incorrect as the annotation. This works
better on systems that do not support DW_OP_call_frame_cfa.
Darwin aligns long-double to 16, and thus all of the long double
tests were failing due to not honoring that. We ought to be able
to devise a test case for GCC using __attribute__((aligned)) that
would have failed too.
The Apple assembler defaults to power of two alignment, rather than
byte alignment like everyone else. Force byte alignment by using
the proper directive.
As per discussion with Ulrich Weigand, document the restrictions
on the code within ffi_call_int as we simultaneously prepare
stack frames for ffi_call_SYSV and the target function.
It's silly to stick to esa/390 features when the compiler won't.
Detect when brasl and larl are used by the compiler and then use
them in the assembly.
Since libffi currently doesn't allow empty structures, libgo
currently maps them to ffi_type_void. Given that we'll abort
on this case, handle it gracefully.
Unlike ffi_closure_LINUX64, this entry point is called normally,
so we already have the TOC in R2 and the closure in R11.
* powerpc/linux64_closure.S (ffi_closure_LINUX64): Remove a
register dependency chain.
(ffi_go_closure_linux64): Don't load r11 or r2.
Plus .cfi async unwind info, rearrangement of ffi_call_linux64 and
ffi_call_SYSV function params to avoid register copies, tweaks to
trampolines.
* src/powerpc/ffitarget.h (FFI_GO_CLOSURES): Define.
* src/powerpc/ffi.c (ffi_call_int): New function with extra
closure param, and args rearranged on ffi_call_linux64 and
ffi_call_SYSV calls, extracted from ..
(ffi_call): ..here.
(ffi_call_go, ffi_prep_go_closure): New functions.
* src/powerpc/ffi_linux64.c (ffi_prep_closure_loc_linux64): Make
hidden. Only flush insn part of ELFv2 trampoline. Don't shuffle
ELFv1 trampoline.
(ffi_closure_helper_LINUX64): Replace closure param with cif, fun,
user_data params.
* src/powerpc/ffi_powerpc.h (ffi_go_closure_sysv): Declare.
(ffi_go_closure_linux64): Declare.
(ffi_call_SYSV, fi_call_LINUX64): Update.
(ffi_prep_closure_loc_sysv, ffi_prep_closure_loc_linux64): Declare.
(ffi_closure_helper_SYSV, ffi_closure_helper_LINUX64): Update.
* src/powerpc/ffi_sysv.c (ASM_NEEDS_REGISTERS): Increase to 6.
(ffi_prep_closure_loc_sysv): Use bcl in trampoline, put data words
last, flush just the insn part.
(ffi_closure_helper_SYSV): Replace closure param with cif, fun and
user_data params.
* src/powerpc/linux64.S (ffi_call_LINUX64): Replace hand-written
.eh_frame with .cfi directives. Adjust for changed param order.
Pass extra "closure" param to user function in static chain. Add
.cfi directives to describe epilogue. Don't provide traceback
table for ELFv2 or _CALL_LINUX.
* src/powerpc/linux64_closure.S (ffi_closure_LINUX64): Replace
hand-written .eh_frame with .cfi directives. Adjust for changed
ffi_closure_helper_LINUX64 params. Add .cfi directives to
describe epilogue. Don't provide traceback table for ELFv2 or
_CALL_LINUX.
(ffi_go_closure_linux64): New function.
* src/powerpc/sysv.S: Remove redundant .globl ffi_prep_args_SYSV.
(ffi_call_SYSV): Make hidden. Replace hand-written .eh_frame with
.cfi directives. Adjust for changed params. Pass extra "closure"
param to user function in static chain. Add .cfi directives to
describe epilogue.
* src/powerpc/ppc_closure.S (ffi_closure_SYSV): Make hidden.
Replace hand-written .eh_frame with .cfi directives. Adjust for
changed ffi_closure_helper_SYSV params. Add .cfi directives to
describe epilogue. Don't just use nops in the dead __NO_FPRS__
epilogues.
(ffi_go_closure_sysv): New function.
This is a port of
http://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs?rev=207763&root=gcc&view=rev
aka GCC PR libffi/60073, to the rewritten Sparc codebase.
Supposedly, we should have seen failures with the existing
libffi.call/cls_double_va.c testcase, but I hadn't.
Perhaps a gcc newer than 4.6.3 is required to see that...
This eliminates the AM_CONDITIONAL ugliness, which eliminates
just a bit of extra boilerplate for a new target.
At the same time, properly categorize the EXTRA_DIST files
into SOURCES and HEADERS, for the generation of ctags.
iOS 5 (and any below 7.1) is deprecated. Apple doesn't distribute the supporting libraries for this platform anymore as of Xcode 6, so it causes a linker error.
The original code, removed in the "rewrite" patch, was incorrect for
large structures, and required dynamic allocation of a trampoline on
every ffi_call.
Instead, allocate a 4k entry table of all possible structure returns.
The table is 80k, but is read-only and dynamically paged, which ought
to be better than allocating the trampoline.
This is difficult to test with gcc. One can only use -O0 at present.
