Joel Sherrill	70810dcd89	Patches rtems-rc-20000204-0.diff from Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de> ... that contains: * Removes remaining (now illegal) references to $(SRC) from a couple of Makefile.ams * Removes duplicate AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS macro from c/configure.in * Moves ENABLE_LIBCDIR into RTEMS_PROG_C[C|XX]_FOR_TARGET (hides LIBCDIR from most configure scripts, i.e. LIBCDIR becomes less visible) * Adds RTEMS_PROG_C[C|XX]_FOR_TARGET and RTEMS_CANONICALIZE_TOOLS to libbsp/*/configure.ins (A minor bug in previous implementations, which only has an impact when switching to GNU/Cygnus canonicalization) * Cleans up several bogus comments. * Removes MKLIB * Switches the version number to 4.5.0 (for testing version number handling)	2000-02-08 22:33:25 +00:00
Joel Sherrill	78ffe896ec	Patch from Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de> ... Removed all go32 configuration tests. This patch also comments out some special treatment for Cygwin from *.m4 macros. According to reports from David Fiddes. these should not be necessary anymore.	1999-10-11 15:50:20 +00:00
Joel Sherrill	6693a68ffa	This is part of a major patch from Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de> ... to move RTEMS more to automake/autoconf and GNU compliance. Finally, here they are: the "big-patch" patches - merged into one big patch (~1.5MB). Sorry for the delay, but testing took much more time than I had expected - esp. reworking the acpolish script triggered many more tiny issues than I had expected (cf. below). At least, now you've got something to spend your weekend with :-. WARNINGS: * I've gone a little (??) further than I had announced before. * Several directories have been moved. * Several files have been added and removed * I have tested it with many BSPs/CPUs and a variety of permutiations of configuration flags, but not with all. * Most parts of the patch are automatically generated, however there are many tiny manual modifications. APPLYING THE PATCH: ./autogen -c mkdir tools mv c/src/exec/score/tools tools/cpu mv c/build-tools tools/build mv c/update-tools tools/update patch -p1 -E < rtems-rc-19990709-0.diff ./autogen If the patch doesn't apply to rtems-cvs, I would suggest that you should try to apply it brute-force and then to run tools/update/rtems-polish.sh -ac -am afterwards. A recursive diff between rtems-19990709 + patch and rtems-cvs + patch then should report only a few dozen significant changes to configuration files which need to be merged manually (IIRC, I did not change any source files). *** Attention: There are files to be removed, moved, copied and added in/to CVS! NEWS/CHANGES: 1. Configuration takes place in 3 stages: 1. per host (toplevel configure script), 2. per target (c/configure), 3. per bsp c/src/configure automatically triggered from ./configure and c/Makefile.am. 2. Building of subdirectory c/ takes place in c/$(target_alias) for cross-targets in c/ for native targets 3. Building of subdirectory c/src takes place in c/${target_alias}/<bsp> for cross-targets, c/<bsp> for native targets 4. c/build-tools moved to tools/build 5. c/src/exec/score/cpu/tools moved to tools/cpu (=cpu-tools split out) 6. c/update-tools moved to tools/update 7. New subdirectory c/src/make, handles files from make/ on a per BSP basis 8. Maintainer mode support: Ie. if configuring with --enable-maintainer-mode disabled (the default), then tracking of many dependencies will be disabled in Makefiles. Esp. many dependencies for auto* generated files will be switched off in Makefiles. Ie. if not using "--enable-maintainer-mode" many auto* generated files will not be updated automatically, i.e. normal users should not be required to have auto* tools anymore (untested). 9. Independent configuration scripts for / (toplevel), tools/build, tools/cpu, tools/update, c/, c/src/, c/src/exec, c/src/lib, c/src/tests, c/src/make 10. Automake support for all directories above and besides c/src 11. "preinstall" now is implemented as depth-first recursive make target 12. host compiled tools (exception bsp-tools) are accessed in location in the build tree instead of inside the build-tree when building RTEMS. 13. RTEMS_ROOT and PROJECT_ROOT now point to directories inside the build-tree - many tiny changes as consequence from this. 14. --with-cross-host support removed (offically announced obsolete by cygnus) 15. Changing the order of building libraries below c/src/lib/ 16. Former toplevel configure script broken into aclocal/*.m4 macros 17. Newlib now detected by configure macros, RTEMS_HAS_NEWLIB removed from *cfg. 18. sptables.h now generated by autoconf 19. Rules for "mkinstalldirs temporary installation tree" moved from c/Makefile to subdirectories. 20. Cpu-tools do not get installed. 21. FIX: Use ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS instead of ACLOCAL = -I ... in Makefile.ams which are in directories with own configure scripts. 22. Hardcoding BSP names into libbsp/.../tools to avoid RTEMS_BSP get overridden from the environment. 22. FIX: Handling of MP_PIECES in various Makefiles 23. FIX: Removing "::" rules from some Makefile.ins 24. FIX: File permission chaos: (-m 444 and -m 555 vs. -m 644 and -m 755) - Now all include files use -m 644. 25. Removed many gnumake-conditionals in Makefile.ins - Partially replaced with automake-conditional, partially replaced with conditionalized Makefile variables (... _yes_V) 26. Massively reworked acpolish: acpolish now parses Makefile.ins and interprets parts of the Makefile.ins. 27. FIX: Some $(wildcard $(srcdir)/*.h) macros removed / replaced with explicit lists of files in Makefile.ins. 28. FIX: Replacing MKLIB with RANLIB in Makefile.ins 29. HACK: Add preinstallation for pc386 specific $(PROJECT_RELEASE)/BootImgs directory ... many more details, I can't recall KNOWN BUGS: 1. make [debug|profile]_install do not do what they are promissing. "make [debug|profile] install" does what "make [debug|profile]_install" has been doing. Proposal: remove [debug|profile]_install 2. Dependencies between temporary installation tree and source tree are not yet handled correctly. 3. Dependencies between temporary installation tree and source tree are handled ineffencently (Using INSTALL_CHANGE instead of make dependencies) 4. RTEMS_ROOT, PROJECT_ROOT, top_builddir, RTEMS_TOPdir now are redundant. 5. The new configure scripts still are in their infancy. They contain redundant checks and might still contain bugs, too. 6. RTEMS autoconf Makefile.ins use a mixture of configuration information gathered in c/$(target_alias)/<bsp>/make and of information collected from their configure scripts. 7. make dist is not fully functional 8. Subdirectory host-/build-/target- configure options (--target, --host, --build) do not conform to Cygnus/GNU conventions. 9. Some RTEMS autoconf Makefile.in's makefile targets are not supported in automake Makefile.ams/ins (e.g. get, clobber). 10. Some automake standard targets are not propagated from toplevel and c/Makefile.am to autoconf subdirectories (eg. make dist). 11. rpcgen generated files are not part of the source-tree (Automake conventions favor supplying generated files inside the source-tree, however there is no support for rpcgen generated files in automake, cf. yacc/lex support in automake). 12. RTEMS_HAS_RDBG handling is flaky. make/*.cfg use RTEMS_HAS_RDBG per CPU, while librdb's sources can only be built per BSP. Raises the more general question whether librdbg located correctly in the source-tree. 13. All make/*cfg files are configured per cpu, currently there is no location to store per-bsp configuration information --> bsp.cfg, per aconfig.h? 14. "make install" without having run "make all" beforehand does not work. 15. handling of --enable-multiprocessing seems to be broken in make/custom/* 16. Makefile.ins still exploit many gmake features. 17. File permisson chaos on libraries (no explict -m for libraries/rels/etc). 18. mcp750 Makefiles are broken (Note: I *do* mean buggy - I am not talking about "not-conforming to conventions", here :-). 19. Dependencies between configure scripts are not handled, eg. aborting "make RTEMS_BSP=<bsp>" can leave the build-tree in an unusable state. 20. "make clean" does not delete <build-tree>/<bsp>. This is intentional for now, because rerunning "make" after "make clean" requires an explicit "make preinstall" afterwards now. This should be done automatically, but doesn't work in this case for now. To work around this problem <build-tree>/<bsp> is kept during "make clean" for now (HACK). TODO: 1. split out host-compiled bsp-tools 2. Use Cygnus/GNU standards for cross-compiling target-subdir (CC=CC_FOR_TARGET .. configure --host=${target_alias} --build=`config.guess'}), to be added to toplevel configure script after splitting out bsp-tools. 3. Exploit per cpu support directory (c/src/<cpu>)- Splitting out per-cpu libraries - Are there any? 4. Further automake support 5. Converting subdirectories into standalone / self-contained subdirectories (Esp. moving their headers to the same common root as their sources, eg. mv lib/include/rtems++ lib/librtems++/include/rtems++) - This is the main obstacle which prevents moving further towards automake. 6. Propagating values from *.cfg into Makefiles instead of propagating them at make time via Makefile-fragments (i.e. try to avoid using *.cfg). 7. Testing on cygwin host (I *do* expect cygwin specific problems). 8. The ARCH in o-$(ARCH)-$(VARIANT) build-subdirectories is not needed anymore. GENERAL ISSUES: 1. Temporary installation tree -- Ian and I seem to disagree basically. Though I think that I understand his argumentation, I do not share it. IMO, his way of using the buildtree is mis-using the build-tree, relying on an inofficial feature of RTEMS's current implementation, which doesn't even work correctly in the current build-tree, though it attempts hard to do so. From my very POV, it unnecessarily complicates the structures of the source- and build-trees. It is not supported by automake (No automatic generation for the necessary rules) and complicates the transition to automake significantly (Generating the rules with an enhanced version of acpolish could be possible). As Ian correctly pointed out, here a management decision is needed - though I don't see the need to draw this decision in short terms. 2. preinstallation generally is a sure means to spoil the structure of the source tree, IMHO (No ranting intended, I am completly serious about this one). eg. through tree dependencies. The worst problem related to this I have found in the meantime is bsp_specs. bsp_specs is part of libbsp, ie. there is *no* way to build *any* part of the source tree *without* having a BSP *preinstalled*. Note: This issue is related to issue 1., but is not identical - The difference is the change of the order make rules have to be triggered. While preinstallation triggers rules spread all over the source tree before a "make all" can be run, a temporary installation tree could also be installed by post "make all" hooks (all-local:, to be run after make all in a directory is completed) if the directories' dependencies would be a tree, 3. Stuctural dependencies between subdirectories. 4. Depth of the source tree (Prevents multilibbing and introduces many unnecessary configure scripts). 5. per cpu vs. per bsp configuration (There are no real per-cpu parts yets :-). 6. automake does not support $makefiles in AC_OUTPUT. Unlike before, we now should try to avoid RTEMS_CHECK_MAKEFILE and to hard-code as much paths to Makefiles as possible. 7. General redesign of the source tree 8. Main installation point - Changing it to ${prefix}/${target_alias}. ? Besides item 8. (which is a must, IMHO), as far as I see most of them can not be solved soon and will remain issues in the mid- to long-term :-. REMARKS: * You (as the maintainer) should always use --enable-maintainer-mode when building RTEMS to ensure that maintainer mode generated files (esp. those in c/src/make) will be updated when make/* files have changed. * Use @RTEMS_BSP@ in Makefile.ins and Makefile.ams below c/src/, $(RTEMS_BSP) or ${RTEMS_BSP} will be overridden from environment variables when using make RTEMS_BSP="....". * c/src/make is a temporary cludge until configuration issues are solved. At the moment it is configured per bsp, but contains per-target/cpu info only. Its main purpose now is to circumvent modifying make/*.cfg files, because I consider make/* to be frozen for backward compatibilty. * This patch should only affect configuration files. At least I do not remember having touched any source files. * To build the bare bsp you now need to mention it in --enable-rtemsbsp. Example: building gensh1 and sh1/bare simultaneously: ../rtems-rc-19990709-1/configure --target=sh-rtems \ --enable-rtemsbsp="bare gensh1" \ --prefix=/tmp/rtems \ --enable-bare-cpu-cflags='-DMHZ=20 -m1 -DCPU_CONSOLE_DEVNAME=\"/dev/null\"' \ --enable-bare-cpu-model=sh7032 \ --enable-maintainer-mode \ --enable-cxx make make install * The next steps in development would be to split out bsp-tools and then to change to Cygnus/GNU canonicalization conventions for building the c/ subdirectory afterwards (i.e. many standard AC_*.m4 macros could be used instead of customized versions) FINAL REMARK: The issues mentioned in the lists above sound much worser than the situation actually is. Most of them are not specific to this patch, but are also valid for the snapshot. I just wrote down what I came across when working on the patch over the last few weeks. I wouldn't be too surprised if you don't like the patch at the current point in development. I am willing to discuss details and problems, I also have no problem if you would post-pone applying this patch to times after 4.1, but rejecting it as a whole for all times would be a false management decision, IMHO. Therefore I would suggest that you, if your time constaints allow it, should at least play a little while with this patch to understand what is going on and before drawing a decision on how to handle this proposal. I know this patch is neither perfect nor complete, but I consider it to be a major breakthrough. Don't be anxious because of the size of the patch, the core of the patch is rather small, the size is mainly the side effect of some systematic cleanups inside the Makefiles (result of acpolish). Feel free to ask if you encounter problems, if you don't understand something or if you meet bugs - I am far from being perfect and am prepared to answer them.

Joel Sherrill	98100d275f	Monstrous patch from Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>. I have ... made no attempt to divide the comments up and place them with just the appropriate files. Here is an excerpt from Ralf's email: Changes including comments on changes I made after cycling through all the targets: * Added ranlib support. Now all targets use "ranlib" instead of "ar -s" to build an index for a library. If ranlib isn't detected during configuration, check if ar -s is working and try "ar -s" instead of * Removed $(XXX_FOR_TARGET) from make/target.cfg.in, use $(XXX) instead now. * gcc-target-default.cfg: LINK_XXXX-defines reworked to solve the -l problem under posix (cf gcc-target-default.cfg) * rtems-glom replaced by Makefile-rules inside of the wrapup/Makefile.in that has been using rtems-glom until now. * Removed CCC and friends in gcc-target-default.cfg, as they have been breaking CXX support. * Removed CONFIG.$(TARGET_ARCH).CC lines from several custom/*.cfg files, because this is now set in custom/default.cfg. * Added aclocal/ar-s.m4, check whether "ar -s" is working * Added aclocal/cygwin.m4 and aclocal/exeext.m4. * Reworked aclocal/canonicalize-tools.m4: Added ar -s check; fixes for problems when XXX_FOR_TARGET is given via environment variables (didn't work for gcc until now), adding cygwin check, improved autoconf-cache handling. * Removed -l from make rule dependencies. LINK_LIBS is now allowed to contain -L and -l. LINK_OBJS and LINK_FILES must not contain -L or -l. gcc28 make-exe rules now link using $(LINK_OBJS) $(LINK_LIBS) => Almost all custom/*.cfg are modified. This is very likely to break something because of typos or having missed to edit a file. Open problems, known bugs, things I didn't do: * custom/p4000.cfg seems to be out of date and requires to be reviewed. (JRS NOTE: It is subordinate p4650 and p4600 -- both of which build ok after minor changes.) * custom/psim.cfg needs to be reviewed, I added some changes to it, I am insecure about. (JRS NOTE: psim had a minor problem endif/endef swapped but runs fine.) * rtems-glom.in can now be removed. * gcc*.cfg files "make depend" rules don't honor language specific flags (e.g CXXFLAGS is ignored for *.cc) - Nothing to worry about now, but may cause problems for hosts/targets not using gcc or rtems-add-ons that use external packages. * AFAIS, the no_bsp BSP can't be build anymore, i.e. configure refused to configure for it whatever I tried. * The toplevel and toplevel+1 README files are quite out-dated * cygwin.m4 isn't of much use for rtems. In most cases (cf. aclocal/*.m4) it is worked around by directly using $host_os. I think I'll remove it soon after the next snapshot * Before release the cygwin patch needs to be tested under cygwin. I may have broken/missed something (esp. the sed-pattern to convert \\ into / may be broken). * You should try to build/run the posix-BSP under solaris - I don't expect problems, but I am not 100% sure, esp. with regard to ranlib/ar -s. * You should consider to convert all make/compilers/*.cfg files into make/compilers/*.cfg.in files and let autoconf generate the *.cfg. This may help getting rid of some if/then/else statements and help hard-coding some defines into those files in future and shouldn't disturb now. * Not having installed libc.a/libm.a on a host may still break building rtems, esp. when using -disable-gcc28 as the gcc27-configuration scheme directly accesses libc.a and libm.a. The problem should not appear when using gcc28 because it references libc/libm only through -lc and -lm which may be static or dynamic (I didn't test this). * shgen is not yet included (I didn't yet have enough time to integrate it). * I know about a few more configure-probs (esp. cross-checking --enable-* flags). + warn/refuse to configure when --enable-libcdir and --enable-gcc28 are given. + force --enable-libcdir when --disable-gcc28 is given * Replaced KSHELL with @KSH@ in some shell scripts generated by configure.in. * Added a dependency to aclocal/*.m4 in the toplevel Makefile => configure and aclocal.m4 will now be rebuild when any aclocal/*.m4 file is changed * Some changes to aclocal/gcc-pipe.m4 and aclocal/gcc-specs.m4 * Replaced i[[3456]]86-unknown-freebsd2.[[12]] with i[[3456]]86-*freebsd2.* in configure.in, as I suppose there might exist a variety of valid vendors (2nd field of the name-tripple) * Disabled override MAKEFLAGS in toplevel Makefile.in - Potential side-effects are not really clear to me. * In mvme162.cfg, $(LINK_LIBS) is missing in the CC line in gcc28's make-exe rule (yet another one I missed to edit). Just append $(LINK_LIBS) to the "CC" line, like I hopefully did to ALL other custom/*.cfg files. * the problem with mvme162lx.cfg is a follow-up problem of the mvme162.cfg-bug. * mvme162/console and idp/console had variables named Buffer which conflicted with similarly named variables in some tests.	1998-06-27 17:09:47 +00:00
