This patch simplifies the way of how Genode's base libraries are
organized. Originally, the base API was implemented in the form of many
small libraries such as 'thread', 'env', 'server', etc. Most of them
used to consist of only a small number of files. Because those libraries
are incorporated in any build, the checking of their inter-dependencies
made the build process more verbose than desired. Also, the number of
libraries and their roles (core only, non-core only, shared by both core
and non-core) were not easy to capture.
Hereby, the base libraries have been reduced to the following few
libraries:
- startup.mk contains the startup code for normal Genode processes.
On some platform, core is able to use the library as well.
- base-common.mk contains the parts of the base library that are
identical by core and non-core processes.
- base.mk contains the complete base API implementation for non-core
processes
Consequently, the 'LIBS' declaration in 'target.mk' files becomes
simpler as well. In the most simple case, only the 'base' library must
be mentioned.
Fixes#18
This patch adds libstdc++ to libports. With the previous version of the
stdcxx library, the build system used the C++ standard library that
comes with the compiler. This mechanism was prone to inconsistencies of
types defined in the header files used at compile time of the tool chain
and the types provided by our libc. By building the C++ standard library
as part of the Genode build process, such inconsistencies cannot happen
anymore.
Note that the patch changes the meaning of the 'stdcxx' library for
users that happened to rely on 'stdcxx' for hybrid Linux/Genode
applications. For such uses, the original mechanism is still available,
in the renamed form of 'toolchain_stdcxx'.
libcrypto provides certain optimized assembler functions which
unfortunatly are non-pic. Therefore this asm code is removed
and libcrypto is build with -DOPENSSL_NO_ASM.
Because the asm code is not needed anymore, its generation is
also removed from openssl.mk.
import-libssl.mk was also added because it is essential for building
programs which depend on libssl.
Fixes#291.
Fixes#294.
The Lua runtime library is built in two variants: ANSI C and C++. The
C++ provides all Lua API function with C++ linkage and uses C++
exceptions instead of setjmp/longjmp for protected execution of Lua
chunks.
The ported version of Lua is 5.1.5.
MuPDF is a fast and versatile PDF rendering library with only a few
dependencies. It depends on openjpeg (JPEG2000 codec) and jbig2dec (b/w
image compression library). Therefore, this patch comprises the ports of
these libraries as well. All libraries compile well in the Genode build
system but are not tested yet.
