* Batch of small 64-bit/long double/large file support tweaks:Jarkko Hietaniemi1999-08-161-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - scan for LDBL_DIG - from DBL_DIG and LDBL_DIG select NV_DIG - introduce IVSIZE, UVSIZE, NVSIZE - introduce IV_DIG - remove stdio64 - AIX uses `oslevel` when others use `uname -r` - already AIX 4.2 goes 64-bit - in HP-UX require the 64-bit libc, just the directory isn't enough - group ids are not NVs - #undef USE_LONG_DOUBLE if long double is no better than double - introduce NV_WITHIN_*() and IV_FITS_IN_IV - mention large file support in perldelta - introduce quad TOPpin' and POPpin' - the svcat... buffer was tiny for printing quads in %b - fix the multiplication test in 64bit.t - try to make VMS to comply with all this removal and "introducal" of symbols p4raw-id: //depot/cfgperl@3995
* Jumbo Configure and large file support update.Jarkko Hietaniemi1999-08-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | Remove a lot of unneeded 64-bitness cruft; re-introduce BYTEORDER; update 64-bitness hints; lfs should now work in Solaris; long doubles in AIX. p4raw-id: //depot/cfgperl@3982

| | | | | | | | | the name of the environment variable holding the dynamic library search path, often LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Use this new feature all over. Also removed remnants of admonition "add LD_LIBRARY_PATH before running make" because Makefile.SH does this for you. p4raw-id: //depot/cfgperl@3725

* BUG in hints/hpux.shJeff McDougal1996-12-061-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Tom, I was not able to run the Configure script on my new HP D-server running HP-UX 10.01. The problem was a single line in the hints/hpux.sh file: xxcontext=`grep $(printf %#x $(getconf CPU_VERSION)) /usr/include/sys/unistd.h` I commented this line out and inserted the following to get a clean execution under the Bourne shell: DECCPU=`getconf CPU_VERSION` HEXCPU=`printf %#x ${DECCPU}` xxcontext=`grep $HEXCPU /usr/include/sys/unistd.h` I am very happy to have Perl 5.003 on my new development box.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If you're adventurous, have a look at ftp://ftp.sems.com/pub/outgoing/perl5.0/perl5.002beta1.tar.gz Many thanks to Andy for doing the integration. Obviously, if you consult the bugs database, you'll note there are still plenty of buglets that need fixing, and several enhancements that I've intended to put in still haven't made it in (Hi, Tim and Ilya). But I think it'll be pretty stable. And you can start to fiddle around with prototypes (which are, of course, still totally undocumented). Packrats, don't worry too much about readvertising this widely. Nowadays we're on a T1 here, so our bandwidth is okay. Have the appropriate amount of jollity. Larry

This is a consolidation patch. It contains many of the most commonly applied or agreed-to patches that have been circulating since patch.1m. It also changes the 'unofficial patchlevel' in perl.c. There are some problems (see items marked with '***'). I will attempt to address those in a patch.1o in a few days. This patch contains the following packages: My Jumbo Configure patch vs. 1m, with subsequent patches 1, 2, and 3. Mainly, this provides easier use of local libraries, documents the installation process in a new INSTALL file, moves important questions towards the beginning, and improves detection of signal names (mostly for Linux). xsubpp-1.922. Patches from Larry: eval "1" memory leak patch (as modified by GSAR to apply to 5.001m). NETaa14551 Infinite loop in formats, NETaa13729 scope.c patch (fixed problems on AIX and others) NETaa14138 "substr() & s///" (pp_hot.c) Patches from ftp.perl.com: ftp://ftp.perl.com/pub/perl/src/patches/closure-bug.patch, version of 20 Sep 1995 Includes fix for NETaa14347 (32k limit in regex), and other fixes. ftp://ftp.perl.com/pub/perl/src/patches/debugger.patch, version of 27 Aug 1995 ftp://ftp.perl.com/pub/perl/src/patches/glob-undef.patch, version of 4 Sep 1995 NETaa14421 $_ doesn't undef ftp://ftp.perl.com/pub/perl/src/patches/op-segfault.patch, version of 21 Aug 1995 ftp://ftp.perl.com/pub/perl/src/patches/warn-ref-hash-key.patch, version of 5 Jun 1995 Tim Bunce's Jumbo DynaLoader patch for Perl5.001m, which is NETaa14636 Jumbo DynaLoader patch for Perl5.001m, and Additional patch for NETaa14636 Jumbo DynaLoader patch for Perl5.001m version of 09 Oct 1995. ***This needs some additional parentheses.*** MakeMaker-5.00. Supercedes NETaa13540 (VMS MakeMaker patches). (Updates minimod.PL as well.) ***This has a couple of minor problems. pod2man is run even if it isn't available. LD_RUN_PATH gets set to some mysterious values.*** NETaa14657 Paul Marquess Net::Ping patch. I've included Net-Ping-1.00. NETaa14661 Dean Roehrich DProf. Installed as ext/Devel/DProf. Configure should pick this up automatically. (5 Apr 1995 version.) NETaa13742 Jack Shirazi Socket in 5.001. I've also included his socket.t test in t/lib/socket.t. c2ph-1.7. Dean's perlapi patches of Oct 12, 1995, which superceded those of Oct 8, 1995. This is the one that did mv perlapi.pid perlxs.pod. NETaa14310 Tim Bunce A trivial patch for configpm (handy for shell scripts) DB_File-1.0 patch from Paul Marquess (pmarquess@bfsec.bt.co.uk) last modified 7th October 1995 version 1.0 Added or updated the following hints files: hints/hpux.sh hints/ncr_tower.sh hints/netbsd.sh hints/ultrix.sh Patch and enjoy.

Subject: Configure now handles defaults much better Subject: Configure now knows if config.sh was built on this machine Subject: Configure now checks file existence more efficiently Subject: Configure now handles stupid SCO csh Configure has been heavily revised. Many of the tests that used to simply force a decision now check that decision against the previous value of the variable, and offer to let you change it. The default now is to keep the old value, so that you don't lose information from your previous run. Because of this, it's now more important to know whether, in fact, config.sh was produced on this machine and on this version of the operating system. config.sh now contains a lastuname variable which contains the output of uname -a. If this matches the current output of uname -a, Configure defaults to including the old config.sh. Otherwise not. If there is no valid config.sh, then Configure looks defaults for the current architecture in the hints/ subdirectory instead. The guesswork I've done in this section of code is phenomenal, so you'll have to instruct me where I've misparsed the output of uname (a problem in portability all of its own). Subject: Configure now differentiates getgroups() type from getgid() type Subject: Configure now figures out malloc ptr type Subject: Configure now does better on sprintf() Configure was assuming that the array of values returned from getgroups was the same type as the gids returned by other system calls. Unfortunately, reality set in. Likewise for malloc() and sprintf(), which there is only one portable way to find out the return value of: try it one way or the other, and see if it blows up. Subject: C flags are now settable on a per-file basis Subject: reduced maximum branch distance in eval.c Certain compilers and/or optimizers get bozoed out by large compilation units, or by large structures within those units. Previously, you either had to change the compiler flags for all the files, or do hairy editing in Makefile.SH and remake the Makefile, necessitating a make depend. Now there is a script called cflags.SH whose duty it is to return the proper CFLAGS for any given C file. You can change the flags in just one spot now and they will be immediately reflected in the next make (or even in the current make, if one is running). Eventually I expect that any of the hints files could modify cflags.SH, but I haven't done that yet. The particular problem of long jump offsets in eval.c has been at least partially alleviated by locating some of the labels in the middle of the function instead of at the end. This still doesn't help the poor Vax when you compile with -g, since it puts a jump to the end of the function to allocate the stack frame and then jumps back to the beginning of the function to execute it. For now Vaxen will have to stick with -O or hand assemble eval.c and teval.c with a -J switch. Subject: fixed "Bad free" error Subject: fixed debugger coredump on subroutines Subject: regexec only allocated space for 9 subexpresssions These are problems that were reported on the net and had unofficial patches. Now they have official patches. Be sure to patch a copy of your files without the unofficial patches, or the patch program will get confused. Subject: you may now use "die" and "caller" in a signal handler Someone pointed out that using die to raise an exception out of a signal handler trashed the expression value stack if the exception was caught by eval. While fixing that, I also fixed the longstanding problem that signal handlers didn't have a normal call frame, which prevented the caller function from working. Subject: fixed undefined environ problem Subject: hopefully straightened out some of the Xenix mess Subject: random cleanup in cpp namespace Just keeping up with the current progress in non-standardization. Subject: fixed failed fork to return undef as documented The open function returns undef on failed implicit forks. The Book assumed that the same was true of an explicit fork. I've made the function behave like the Book says. It's a pity there's no way to have an undefined value that returns -1 in a numeric context but false in a boolean context... Subject: generalized the yaccpar fixer some Thanks to Andy Dougherty, perly.fixer now knows how to fix SVR3 2.2's yaccpar code to do dynamic parse stack allocation. He also made it easy for other people to insert their code there. Hooray! Subject: find2perl sometimes needs to stat on the 2nd leg of a -o Subject: find2perl didn't correctly handle switches with an argument of 0 In attempting to delay the lstat to the last moment, in case a filename could be rejected on the basis of its name, find2perl neglected to take into account the fact that control might pass to the 2nd half of a -o without executing all of the 1st half, in particular without executing the lstat. find2perl was wisely removing leading zeroes from numbers that would mistakenly be interpreted as octal numbers by Perl. Unfortunately, this caused it to delete the number 0 entirely. Subject: fixed dumpvar not to dump internal debugging info Subject: substr($ENV{"PATH"},0,0) = "/foo:" didn't modify environment Subject: $foo .= <BAR> could cause core dump for certain lengths of $foo Subject: perl -de "print" wouldn't stop at the first statement Random glitchy little things. Subject: I'm at NetLabs now I'm now working for NetLabs, Inc., and I hadn't changed my address everywhere.
