commit 6e8a446083
added FFI_TYPE_COMPLEX value type (comes after FFI_TYPE_POINTER)
ia64 ffi_closure_unix reiles on the ordering of
FFI_ enums as ia64 has ia64-specific FFI types:
small struct and FPU extesions.
As a result all tests handling small structs broke.
The change fixes dispatch table by adding (no-op)
FFI_TYPE_COMPLEX entry
This has positive effect of unbreaking most tests
on ia64:
=== libffi Summary ===
-# of expected passes 1595
-# of unexpected failures 295
+# of expected passes 1930
+# of unexpected failures 10
# of unsupported tests 30

The closure function (invoked as closure->fun in ffi_closure_XXX_inner)
will only populate the actual number of bytes for the true return type,
which may be a character. This leaves garbage on the stack when the
assembly closure function (i.e. ffi_closure_XXX) reads the return value
off of the stack into r0 as a 4-byte value. ffi_closure_XXX always
leaves room for at least 4 bytes here, so we can safely set them to 0.
Otherwise, if there is garbage in any of these bytes, these end up in r0
and in the returned value as well.
In eaa59755fc, macros from `unix64.S` were extracted into `asmnames.h` to be used with `win64.S` as well. As such these are required by `unix64.S`, which fails to build without them.
When running `make dist`, `configure.host` would not result in the distribution tarball, however `configure` would try to read it, and as such the tarball would not be buildable.
Autoconf hasn’t had an update since 2014, and it doesn’t look like it will soon[1]
This updates config.{guess,sub}
It adds support for e.g. `-ios`, which allows to have targets like `aarch64-apple-ios`.
It basically does exactly what the config.guess script says:
> It is advised that you download the most up to date version of the config scripts from
The configure.ac script has been updated to relax `*-apple-darwin*` to `*-apple-*`.
Similarly the `.gitignore` and `autogen.sh` needed to be updated to respect the
newer `config.{sub,guess}`

By using VM_FLAGS_OVERWRITE there is no need for speculatively
allocating on a page we just deallocated. This approach eliminates the
race-condition and gets rid of the retry logic.
