2015-05-08Bug 18125: Call exit after last linked context.Carlos O'Donell
There appears to be a discrepancy among the implementations of setcontext with regards to the function called once the last linked-to context has finished executing via setcontext. The POSIX standard says: ~~~ If the uc_link member of the ucontext_t structure pointed to by the ucp argument is equal to 0, then this context is the main context, and the thread will exit when this context returns. ~~~ It says "exit" not "exit immediately" nor "exit without running functions registered with atexit or on_exit." Therefore the AArch64, ARM, hppa and NIOS II implementations are wrong and no test detects it. It is questionable if this should even be fixed or just documented that the above 4 targets are wrong. The functions are deprecated and nobody should be using them, but at the same time it silly to have cross-target differences that make it hard to port old applications from say x86_64 to AArch64. Therefore I will ix the 4 arches, and checkin a regression test to prevent it from changing again. https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-03/msg00720.html

2014-02-08Move arm from ports to libc.Joseph Myers
I've moved the ARM port from ports to the main sysdeps hierarchy. Beyond the README update, the move of the files was simply git mv ports/sysdeps/arm sysdeps/arm git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/arm sysdeps/unix/arm git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm and in addition to the ChangeLog entries here, I put a note at the top of ports/ChangeLog.arm similar to that at the top of ChangeLog.powerpc. There is deliberately no NEWS change, as I think it makes the most sense to put in a general note above all ports having moved if we can achieve that for 2.20. Tested that disassembly of installed shared libraries for arm is the same before and after this patch, except for data (not instructions) in ld.so (there are assertions in sysdeps/arm/dl-machine.h, and the path by which that file is found, and so by which it appears in the assertion message, changes as a result of the move). * sysdeps/arm: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/arm. * sysdeps/unix/arm: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/unix/arm. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm. * README: Update listing for arm-*-linux-gnueabi. ports/ChangeLog.arm: * sysdeps/arm: Move directory to ../sysdeps/arm. * sysdeps/unix/arm: Move directory to ../sysdeps.arm. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm: Move directory to ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm.
