Thu Sep 12 03:35:27 1996 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com> * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/Dist: Remove init-first.h. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/m68k/Dist: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Dist: Add init-first.h. 1996-09-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com> * strftime.c (strftime): Handle E and O modifiers, required for POSIX.2 and XPG4. Don't use sprintf to format numbers; this way, we can handle time_t correctly regardless of whether it's signed. Don't dump core if format ends in %. In default %c format, use %e instead of %d, for POSIX.2 compatibility. For %z: Use tm_gmtoff if available. Output nothing if tm_isdst is negative. Output correct value even if arg is 1969-12-31 23:59:59 UTC. Don't assume that UTC offset is less than 24 hours; Posix requires support for 24 hours, and there's no point limiting it at all. (HAVE_TM_GMTOFF, TYPE_SIGNED, INT_STRLEN_BOUND): New macros. (CHAR_BIT): Define if <limits.h> doesn't. (tm_diff): New function. (fmt, <stdio.h>): Remove; no longer used. Thu Sep 12 02:21:44 1996 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com> * db/Makefile: Add extra-libs-others variable so that shared library is built in `others' pass. * elf/Makefile: Likewise. * math/Makefile: Likewise. * resolv/Makefile: Likewise. * Makefile (generated): Add version.info.h. * time/checktab.awk: New file. From ADO 96k. * time/iso3166.tab: Likewise. * time/tzselect.ksh: Likewise. * time/zone.tab: Likewise. * stdio-common/vfprintf.c: Correct cleanup registration. We cannot use a macro 1996-09-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com> * time/time.h (tm_gmtoff, tm_zone): Prefix with `__' unless __USE_BSD; this is required for ANSI C compatibility. * manual/time.texi: Replace GMT by UTC, daylight savings by daylight saving, timezone by time zone. Rewrite description of %V to match ISO 8601. Fix TZ Posix string example for US Eastern time. Explain tzname[1] when DST isn't used. Explain tzname when multiple abbreviations used (e.g. EST/EWT/EDT). Explain that timezone's sign is opposite from tm_gmtoff, and that timezone lacks DST adjustment whereas tm_gmtoff has it. Deprecate tzname and timezone. Tue Sep 10 14:46:16 1996 Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de> Implement Roland McGrath's idea of how to put an .interp into shared libraries. * interp.c: New file. * Makerules (interp-obj): New object, linked into every shared library. (common-generated): Add interp.so. (CFLAGS-interp.c): Pass name of interpreter. Tue Sep 10 21:09:35 1996 Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de> * db/Makefile: Fix typo. Tue Sep 10 19:29:53 1996 Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de> * nss/db-Makefile ($(VAR_DB)/passwd.db): Look for multiple occurences of the same uid, and only generate a mapping for the first one. Tue Sep 10 03:14:59 1996 Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de> * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/system.c: New file, to override sysdeps/unix/system.c. Tue Sep 10 15:05:40 1996 Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de> * Makefile (before-compile): Add version-info.h, needed to build version.d. Tue Sep 10 14:14:33 1996 Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de> * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/m68k/sysdep.S: Remove check for EWOULDBLOCK, never true on Linux. (__errno_location): New function. [_LIBC_REENTRANT]: Set errno using __errno_location function. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/m68k/sysdep.h [PIC]: Add second syscall_error handler for reentrant libc. Tue Sep 10 13:27:49 1996 Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de> * elf/Makefile (extra-objs): Add eval.so to get dependencies. Wed Sep 11 04:40:57 1996 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com> * time/tzset.c (__tzname_cur_max): Use type `size_t' to avoid warning. * time/tzfile.c (compute_tzname_max): Likewise.
This directory contains the version 1.94 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-1.94-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.
