Sat Aug 17 12:19:37 1996 David Mosberger-Tang <davidm@azstarnet.com> * login/pututline_r.c (__pututline_r): Fix handling of case where getutid_r() fails with ESRCH. Reported by Miquel van Smoorenburg. Wed Aug 14 14:10:54 1996 David Mosberger-Tang <davidm@azstarnet.com> * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/ioperm.c (platform): Change entry for "Jensen" so _bus_base() returns 0 on that platform. Use _bus_base_sparse() to determine base address of sparse memory. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sys/io.h: Enclose #include <asm/io.h> and declarations in __BEGIN_DECLS/__END_DECLS. Sun Aug 18 13:37:09 1996 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com> * err.h: New file. Wrapper around misc/err.h. Correct solution of multiple initialization problem by Roland McGrath. * csu/initfini.c: Remove global variable __libc_is_static. * elf/rtld.c: Introduce new global variable _dl_starting_up. It's nonzero during the startup. * elf/dl-open.c (_dl_open): When _dl_start function is not available (i.e., if in static libc) set `__libc_multiple_libcs' to nonzero value. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/init-first.c (__libc_multiple_libc): New global variable. (init): Undo change of Fri Aug 2 03:12:40 1996. Initialize `__libc_multiple_libcs' to nonzero only if this is a shared lib called from a statically linked program and don't call `personality' and `setfpucw' in this case either. * sysdeps/generic/sbrk.c: Undo change of Fri Aug 2 03:12:40 1996. Don't call brk(0) until `__libc_multiple_libcs' is nonzero. * sysdeps/i386/dl-machine.h (RTLD_START): Clear _dl_starting_up before jumping to user code. * sysdeps/m68k/dl-machine.h (RTLD_START): Likewise. Fri Aug 16 04:59:01 1996 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com> * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/init-first.c: Remove hack from Thu Aug 8 12:40:20 1996. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Makefile [$(subdir) = csu]: Use -fkeep-inline-functions flag instead.
This directory contains the version 1.93 test release of the GNU C Library. Many bugs have been fixed since the last release. Some bugs surely remain. As of this release, the GNU C library has been ported to the following configurations: alpha-dec-osf1 i[345]86-*-bsd4.3 i[345]86-*-gnu i[345]86-*-isc2.2 i[345]86-*-isc3 i[345]86-*-linux i[345]86-*-sco3.2 i[345]86-*-sco3.2v4 i[345]86-*-sysv i[345]86-*-sysv4 i[345]86-force_cpu386-none i[345]86-sequent-bsd i960-nindy960-none m68k-hp-bsd4.3 m68k-mvme135-none m68k-mvme136-none m68k-sony-newsos3 m68k-sony-newsos4 m68k-sun-sunos4 mips-dec-ultrix4 mips-sgi-irix4 sparc-sun-solaris2 sparc-sun-sunos4 Porting the library is not hard. If you are interested in doing a port, please get on the mailing list by sending electronic mail to bug-glibc-request@prep.ai.mit.edu. The GNU C library now includes Michael Glad's Ultra Fast Crypt, which provides the Unix `crypt' function, plus some other entry points. Because of the United States export restriction on DES implementations, we are distributing this code separately from the rest of the C library. There is an extra distribution tar file just for crypt; it is called `glibc-1.93-crypt.tar.gz'. You can just unpack the crypt distribution along with the rest of the C library and build; you can also build the library without getting crypt. Users outside the USA can get the crypt distribution via anonymous FTP from ftp.uni-c.dk [129.142.6.74], or another archive site outside the USA. Archive maintainers are encouraged to copy this distribution to their archives outside the USA. Please get it from ftp.uni-c.dk; transferring this distribution from prep.ai.mit.edu (or any other site in the USA) to a site outside the USA is in violation of US export laws. See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, install, and port the GNU C library. The GNU C Library is completely documented by the Texinfo manual found in the `manual/' subdirectory. The manual is still being updated and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like. Please send comments on the manual to bug-glibc-manual@prep.ai.mit.edu, and not to the library bug-reporting address. The file NOTES contains a description of the feature-test macros used in the GNU C library, explaining how you can tell the library what facilities you want it to make available. Send bug reports to bug-glibc@prep.ai.mit.edu. The GNU C Library is free software. See the file COPYING.LIB for copying conditions.
