least 2 version numbers. This fixes the bug where the dynamic
linker would try to load an ELF shared library if it found one.
Note, this change also fixes the same thing in "ld", because the
code is shared.
For "ld" there is still a problem with ".a" libraries, which cannot
be distinguished by name. I haven't decided what, if anything, to
do about that.
a different file than the a.out hints, namely, "/var/run/ld-elf.so.hints".
These hints consist only of the directory search path. There is
no hash table as in the a.out hints, because ELF doesn't have to
search for the file with the highest minor version number. (It
doesn't have minor version numbers at all.)
A single run of ldconfig updates either the a.out hints or the ELF
hints, but not both. The set of hints to process is selected in
the usual way, via /etc/objformat, or ${OBJFORMAT}, or the "-aout"
or "-elf" command line option. The rationale is that you probably
want to search different directories for ELF than for a.out.
"ldconfig -r" is faked up to produce output like we are used to,
except that for ELF there are no minor version numbers. This should
enable "ldconfig -r" to be used for checking LIB_DEPENDS in ports
even for ELF.
I implemented the ELF functionality in a new source file, with an
eye toward eliminating the a.out code entirely at some point in
the future.
shared object. Note, this searches _only_ that object, and not its
needed objects, in accordance with the documentation.
Also fix dlopen(NULL, ...) so that the executable's needed objects
are searched as well as the executable itself.
it to sit right...
The __error() hack gave out the wrong address. It returned the address of
errno in ld.so instead of the address of errno in the main program. Oops.
The hack is now correct, just in time to be obsoleted by elf.
or Elf64 based on the inclusion of the machine dependent header.
I've left the addition of the extra fields to handle the relocation
structures with addend for a separate commit after jdp has had a chance
to review what I've done. The current change is needed to compile
csu/alpha/crt1.c
alternative, I present .. ta! da! .. the __error() hack.
This patch to the a.out dynamic loader provides old a.out binaries
with __error() if they are linked with an older libc that lacks it,
but are also linked against a library that needs it.
There is a smaller, tricker hack that takes advantage of the fact
that ld.so has __error() too, courtesy of the new libc, but this
hack is the straightforward version.
Move a.out libraries to /usr/lib/aout to make space for ELF libs.
Make rtld usr /usr/lib/aout as default library path.
Make ldconfig reject /usr/lib as an a.out library path.
Fix various Makefiles for LIBDIR!=/usr/lib breakage.
This will after a make world & reboot give a system that no
longer uses /usr/lib/*, infact one could remove all the old
libraries there, they are not used anymore.
We are getting close to an ELF make world, but I'll let this
all settle for a week or two...
output for local users. FTP protocol RFC also says that 'ls' output is
not machine-readable. "always UTC" still possible with TZ= in ftpd
environment by price of having UTC in log files too.
Fix INTERNAL_LS to sense new /etc/localtime after chroot
any case.
It makes no difference for anon account (since chroot already makes it GMT),
but if you do mirror with special non-anon login, in old variant
your mirror will be wholy retransmitted twice in the year due to
time zone changes (/etc/localtime plays bad role here)
