Automake will run each subdir individually before moving on to the next
one. This means that the linking phase, a single threaded process, will
not run in parallel with anything else. When we have to link ~32 ports,
that's 32 link steps that don't take advantage of parallel systems. On
my really old 4-core system, this cuts a multi-target build from ~60 sec
to ~30 sec. We eventually want to move all compile+link steps to this
common dir anyways, so might as well move linking now for a nice speedup.
We use noinst_PROGRAMS instead of bin_PROGRAMS because we're taking care
of the install ourselves rather than letting automake process it.
We still have to maintain custom install rules due to how we rename
arch-specific files with an arch prefix in their name, but we can at
least unify the logic in the common dir.
Nothing in the tree checks this option, or has checked for decades.
The pre-cvs-import ChangeLog suggests this was added & removed back
then, but can't be sure as that history doesn't exist in the VCS.
Nothing checks this define anywhere, so drop all the logic. We don't
want this to be a configure option in the first place as all such usage
should be automatic & following proper types.
This has only ever had a single option that's enabled by default.
The objects it adds are pretty small and don't add overhead at
runtime if it isn't used, so just enable it all the time to make
the build code simpler.
The top-level already sets up a libtool script for the host, so use
that when linking rather than invoking CC directly. This will also
happen when we (someday) move the building to pure automake.
Since all host files we compile use these settings, move them out of
libcommon.a and into the default AM_CPPFLAGS. This has the effect of
dropping the custom per-target automake rules. Currently it saves us
~150 lines, but since it's about ~8 lines per object, the overhead
will increase quite a bit as we merge more files into a single build.
This also changes the object output names, so we have to tweak the
rules that were pulling in the common objects when linking.
When reading/writing arbitrary data to the system's memory, the unsigned
char pointer type doesn't make that much sense. Switch it to void so we
align a bit with standard C library read/write functions, and to avoid
having to sprinkle casts everywhere.

Because of a Libiberty hack, getopt on GNU libc (2.25 or earlier) is
currently unusable on sim, causing a regression on CentOS 7.
This is caused as follows:
1. If HAVE_DECL_GETOPT is defined (getopt declaration with known prototype
is detected while configuration), a declaration of getopt in
"include/getopt.h" is suppressed.
The author started to define HAVE_DECL_GETOPT in sim with the commit
340aa4f687 ("sim: Check known getopt definition existence").
2. GNU libc (2.25 or earlier)'s <unistd.h> includes <getopt.h> with a
special purpose macro defined to declare only getopt function but due
to include path (not tested while configuration), it causes <unistd.h>
to include Libiberty's "include/getopt.h".
3. If both 1. and 2. are satisfied, despite that <unistd.h> tries to
declare getopt by including <getopt.h>, "include/getopt.h" does not do
so, causing getopt function undeclared.
Getting rid of "include/getopt.h" (e.g. renaming this header file) is the
best solution to avoid hacking but as a short-term solution, this commit
replaces getopt with getopt_long under sim/.
In the ppc simulator, clang was warning about some code like this:
busy_ptr->nr_writebacks = 1 + (PPC_ONE_BIT_SET_P(out_vmask)) ? 1 : 2;
The warning was:
operator '?:' has lower precedence than '+'; '+' will be evaluated first
I suspect that this is not the original authors intention.
PPC_ONE_BIT_SET_P is going to be 0 or 1, so if we evaluate the '+'
first, the condition will always be non-zero, so true. The whole
expression could then be simplified to just '1', which doesn't make
much sense.
I suspect the answer the author was expecting was either 2 or 3. Why
they didn't just write:
busy_ptr->nr_writebacks = (PPC_ONE_BIT_SET_P(out_vmask)) ? 2 : 3;
I have no clue, however, to keep the structure of the code unchanged,
I've updated things to:
busy_ptr->nr_writebacks = 1 + (PPC_ONE_BIT_SET_P (out_vmask) ? 1 : 2);
which silences the warning from clang, and is, I am guessing, what the
original author intended.
In the ppc simulator's do_fstat function, which provides the fstat
call for the simulator, if the fstat is going to fail then we
currently write an uninitialized buffer into the simulated target.
In theory, I think this is fine, we also write the error status into
the simulated target, so, given that the fstat has failed, the target
shouldn't be relying on the buffer contents.
However, writing an uninitialized buffer means we might leak simulator
private data into the simulated target, which is probably a bad thing.
Plus it probably makes life easier if something consistent, like all
zeros, is written rather than random junk, which might look like a
successful call (except for the error code).
So, in this commit, I initialize the stat buffer to zero before
it is potentially used. If the stat call is not made then the buffer
will be left initialized as all zeros.
The ppc simulator, in sim_create_inferior, tries to print the function
local entry_point variable before the variable is initialized.
In this commit, I defer the debug print line until the variable has
been initialized.
These configure scripts check $target and change behavior. They
shouldn't be doing that, but until we can rework the sim to change
behavior based on the input ELF, restore AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM to
these so that $target is correctly populated.
This was lost in the d3562f83a7
("sim: unify toolchain probing logic") refactor as the logic was
hoisted up to the common code. But the fact the vars weren't
passed down to the sub-configure scripts was missed.

The device_error function always ends up calling the error function,
which is itself marked as ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN, so it makes sense that
device_error should also be marked ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN.
Doing this resolves a few warnings from hw_ide.c about possibly
uninitialized variables - the variables are only uninitialized after
passing through a call to device_error, which obviously means the
variables are never really used uninitialized, the simulation will
terminate with the device_error call.

commit 182421c9d2

sim/ppc: fixes for arguments to printf style functions
where commit 182421c9d2 addressed issues with printf format
arguments that were causing the compiler to give an error, this commit
addresses issues that caused the compiler to emit a warning.
This commit is mostly either changing the format string to match the
argument, or in some cases, excess, unused arguments are removed.
Because "%p" is the pointer conversion specifier to print a pointer in an
implementation-defined manner, the result with format string containing
"0x%p" can be strange. For instance, core_map_find_mapping prints error
containing "0x0x...." (processor is not NULL) or "0x(null)" (processor is
NULL) on glibc.
This commit replaces "0x%p" with "%p" to prevent unpredictable behavior.
After the recent series of fixes to mark more functions in the
simulator with ATTRIBUTE_PRINTF, there were some build failures in the
ppc sim due, in some cases, to bugs with the arguments being passed,
and in other cases, the issues were (maybe) less serious, with
arguments being the wrong size, or type, for the printf format being
used.
This commit fixes all of the issues that I ran into.
In each case I selected the easiest solution to the problem, which is
usually just casting the argument to the correct type. If anyone
later on thinks the print format should change, please feel free to do
that. What we have here should keep the simulator basically working
as it does currently, which is my goal with this commit.
Clang generates a warning if there is a redundant self-assignment
("-Wself-assign"). On the default configuration, it causes a build failure
(unless "--disable-werror" is specified).
This commit removes redundant self-assignments from two files.
Clang generates a warning if the format string of a printf-like function is
not a literal ("-Wformat-nonliteral"). On the default configuration, it
causes a build failure (unless "--disable-werror" is specified).
To avoid warnings on the printf-like wrapper, it requires proper
__attribute__((format)) and we have ATTRIBUTE_PRINTF macro for this reason.
This commit adds ATTRIBUTE_PRINTF to the printf-like functions.
For the error function defined in sim_calls.c, the ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN
has been moved to the function declaration.
PTR will soon disappear from ansidecl.h. Remove uses in sim. Where
a PTR cast is used in assignment or function args to a void* I've
simply removed the unnecessary (in C) cast rather than replacing with
(void *).
These are almost entirely unused. For the very few places using them,
replace with explicit signed types. This matches what was done in the
common sim code.
This commit brings all the changes made by running gdb/copyright.py
as per GDB's Start of New Year Procedure.
For the avoidance of doubt, all changes in this commits were
performed by the script.
The ## marker tells automake to not include the comment in its
generated output, so use that in most places where the comment
only makes sense in the inputs.
Like we just did for pulling out the errno map, pull out the syscall
maps into a dedicated common file. Most newlib ports are using the
same syscall map, but not all, which means we have to do a bit more
work to migrate.
This commit adds the maps and switches the ports using the common
default syscall table over to it. Ports using unique syscall tables
are still using the old targ-map.c logic.
Switching common ports over is easy by checking NL_TARGET, but the
ppc code needs a bit more cleanup here hence its larger diff.
The project has been using GPL v3 for a while now in the source files,
and the arm & ppc ports have carried a copy of the COPYING file. Lets
move those up to the top sim dir like other projects to make it clear.
Also drop the ppc/COPYING.LIB as it's not really referenced by any
source as everything is GPL v3.
We don't need to build this anymore ourselves since the common build
includes it and produces the same object code. We also need to pull
in the split constant modules after the refactoring and pulling them
out of nltvals.def & targ-map.o. This doesn't matter for the sim
directly, but does for gdb and other users of libsim.
We also delete some conditional source tree logic since we already
require this be the "new" combined tree with a ../common/ dir. This
has been the case for decades at this point.
There's no need to define these ourselves anymore, so switch to the
stdint.h types. This will be important when we start using PRI*
defines with printf formats.
...by reordering includes.
1. sim-utils.c
sim/mips/sim-main.h defines UserMode, while there is a struct in winnt.h
which has UserMode as a member. So if sim-main.h is included before winnt.h,
compilation fails.
2. ppc
registers.h defines CR, which is used as a member in winnt.h.
winsock2.h is included by sys/time.h, so sys/time.h has to be included
before registers.h.

Not all systems have easy access to hard links or symlinks, so add
fallback logic to the run->psim build code to handle those.
