Appendix C Installing the GNU C Library
***************************************

Before you do anything else, you should read the FAQ at
<http://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/FAQ>.  It answers common questions and
describes problems you may experience with compilation and installation.

   Features can be added to the GNU C Library via "add-on" bundles.
These are separate tar files, which you unpack into the top level of the
source tree.  Then you give 'configure' the '--enable-add-ons' option to
activate them, and they will be compiled into the library.

   You will need recent versions of several GNU tools: definitely GCC
and GNU Make, and possibly others.  *Note Tools for Compilation::,
below.

* Menu:

* Configuring and compiling::   How to compile and test GNU libc.
* Running make install::        How to install it once you've got it
 compiled.
* Tools for Compilation::       You'll need these first.
* Linux::                       Specific advice for GNU/Linux systems.
* Reporting Bugs::              So they'll get fixed.

C.1 Configuring and compiling the GNU C Library
===============================================

The GNU C Library cannot be compiled in the source directory.  You must
build it in a separate build directory.  For example, if you have
unpacked the GNU C Library sources in '/src/gnu/glibc-VERSION', create a
directory '/src/gnu/glibc-build' to put the object files in.  This
allows removing the whole build directory in case an error occurs, which
is the safest way to get a fresh start and should always be done.

   From your object directory, run the shell script 'configure' located
at the top level of the source tree.  In the scenario above, you'd type

     $ ../glibc-VERSION/configure ARGS...

   Please note that even though you're building in a separate build
directory, the compilation may need to create or modify files and
directories in the source directory.

'configure' takes many options, but the only one that is usually
mandatory is '--prefix'.  This option tells 'configure' where you want
the GNU C Library installed.  This defaults to '/usr/local', but the
normal setting to install as the standard system library is
'--prefix=/usr' for GNU/Linux systems and '--prefix=' (an empty prefix)
for GNU/Hurd systems.

   It may also be useful to set the CC and CFLAGS variables in the
environment when running 'configure'.  CC selects the C compiler that
will be used, and CFLAGS sets optimization options for the compiler.

   The following list describes all of the available options for
'configure':

'--prefix=DIRECTORY'
     Install machine-independent data files in subdirectories of
     'DIRECTORY'.  The default is to install in '/usr/local'.

'--exec-prefix=DIRECTORY'
     Install the library and other machine-dependent files in
     subdirectories of 'DIRECTORY'.  The default is to the '--prefix'
     directory if that option is specified, or '/usr/local' otherwise.

'--with-headers=DIRECTORY'
     Look for kernel header files in DIRECTORY, not '/usr/include'.  The
     GNU C Library needs information from the kernel's header files
     describing the interface to the kernel.  The GNU C Library will
     normally look in '/usr/include' for them, but if you specify this
     option, it will look in DIRECTORY instead.

     This option is primarily of use on a system where the headers in
     '/usr/include' come from an older version of the GNU C Library.
     Conflicts can occasionally happen in this case.  You can also use
     this option if you want to compile the GNU C Library with a newer
     set of kernel headers than the ones found in '/usr/include'.

'--enable-add-ons[=LIST]'
     Specify add-on packages to include in the build.  If this option is
     specified with no list, it enables all the add-on packages it finds
     in the main source directory; this is the default behavior.  You
     may specify an explicit list of add-ons to use in LIST, separated
     by spaces or commas (if you use spaces, remember to quote them from
     the shell).  Each add-on in LIST can be an absolute directory name
     or can be a directory name relative to the main source directory,
     or relative to the build directory (that is, the current working
     directory).  For example,
     '--enable-add-ons=nptl,../glibc-libidn-VERSION'.

'--enable-kernel=VERSION'
     This option is currently only useful on GNU/Linux systems.  The
     VERSION parameter should have the form X.Y.Z and describes the
     smallest version of the Linux kernel the generated library is
     expected to support.  The higher the VERSION number is, the less
     compatibility code is added, and the faster the code gets.

'--with-binutils=DIRECTORY'
     Use the binutils (assembler and linker) in 'DIRECTORY', not the
     ones the C compiler would default to.  You can use this option if
     the default binutils on your system cannot deal with all the
     constructs in the GNU C Library.  In that case, 'configure' will
     detect the problem and suppress these constructs, so that the
     library will still be usable, but functionality may be lost--for
     example, you can't build a shared libc with old binutils.

'--without-fp'
     Use this option if your computer lacks hardware floating-point
     support and your operating system does not emulate an FPU.

'--disable-shared'
     Don't build shared libraries even if it is possible.  Not all
     systems support shared libraries; you need ELF support and
     (currently) the GNU linker.

'--disable-profile'
     Don't build libraries with profiling information.  You may want to
     use this option if you don't plan to do profiling.

'--enable-static-nss'
     Compile static versions of the NSS (Name Service Switch) libraries.
     This is not recommended because it defeats the purpose of NSS; a
     program linked statically with the NSS libraries cannot be
     dynamically reconfigured to use a different name database.

'--without-tls'
     By default the C library is built with support for thread-local
     storage if the used tools support it.  By using '--without-tls'
     this can be prevented though there generally is no reason since it
     creates compatibility problems.

'--enable-hardcoded-path-in-tests'
     By default, dynamic tests are linked to run with the installed C
     library.  This option hardcodes the newly built C library path in
     dynamic tests so that they can be invoked directly.

'--enable-lock-elision=yes'
     Enable lock elision for pthread mutexes by default.

'--enable-pt_chown'
     The file 'pt_chown' is a helper binary for 'grantpt' (*note
     Pseudo-Terminals: Allocation.) that is installed setuid root to fix
     up pseudo-terminal ownership.  It is not built by default because
     systems using the Linux kernel are commonly built with the 'devpts'
     filesystem enabled and mounted at '/dev/pts', which manages
     pseudo-terminal ownership automatically.  By using
     '--enable-pt_chown', you may build 'pt_chown' and install it setuid
     and owned by 'root'.  The use of 'pt_chown' introduces additional
     security risks to the system and you should enable it only if you
     understand and accept those risks.

'--build=BUILD-SYSTEM'
'--host=HOST-SYSTEM'
     These options are for cross-compiling.  If you specify both options
     and BUILD-SYSTEM is different from HOST-SYSTEM, 'configure' will
     prepare to cross-compile the GNU C Library from BUILD-SYSTEM to be
     used on HOST-SYSTEM.  You'll probably need the '--with-headers'
     option too, and you may have to override CONFIGURE's selection of
     the compiler and/or binutils.

     If you only specify '--host', 'configure' will prepare for a native
     compile but use what you specify instead of guessing what your
     system is.  This is most useful to change the CPU submodel.  For
     example, if 'configure' guesses your machine as 'i686-pc-linux-gnu'
     but you want to compile a library for 586es, give
     '--host=i586-pc-linux-gnu' or just '--host=i586-linux' and add the
     appropriate compiler flags ('-mcpu=i586' will do the trick) to
     CFLAGS.

     If you specify just '--build', 'configure' will get confused.

'--with-pkgversion=VERSION'
     Specify a description, possibly including a build number or build
     date, of the binaries being built, to be included in '--version'
     output from programs installed with the GNU C Library.  For
     example, '--with-pkgversion='FooBar GNU/Linux glibc build 123''.
     The default value is 'GNU libc'.

'--with-bugurl=URL'
     Specify the URL that users should visit if they wish to report a
     bug, to be included in '--help' output from programs installed with
     the GNU C Library.  The default value refers to the main
     bug-reporting information for the GNU C Library.

   To build the library and related programs, type 'make'.  This will
produce a lot of output, some of which may look like errors from 'make'
but isn't.  Look for error messages from 'make' containing '***'.  Those
indicate that something is seriously wrong.

   The compilation process can take a long time, depending on the
configuration and the speed of your machine.  Some complex modules may
take a very long time to compile, as much as several minutes on slower
machines.  Do not panic if the compiler appears to hang.

   If you want to run a parallel make, simply pass the '-j' option with
an appropriate numeric parameter to 'make'.  You need a recent GNU
'make' version, though.

   To build and run test programs which exercise some of the library
facilities, type 'make check'.  If it does not complete successfully, do
not use the built library, and report a bug after verifying that the
problem is not already known.  *Note Reporting Bugs::, for instructions
on reporting bugs.  Note that some of the tests assume they are not
being run by 'root'.  We recommend you compile and test the GNU C
Library as an unprivileged user.

   Before reporting bugs make sure there is no problem with your system.
The tests (and later installation) use some pre-existing files of the
system such as '/etc/passwd', '/etc/nsswitch.conf' and others.  These
files must all contain correct and sensible content.

   To format the 'GNU C Library Reference Manual' for printing, type
'make dvi'.  You need a working TeX installation to do this.  The
distribution builds the on-line formatted version of the manual, as Info
files, as part of the build process.  You can build them manually with
'make info'.

   The library has a number of special-purpose configuration parameters
which you can find in 'Makeconfig'.  These can be overwritten with the
file 'configparms'.  To change them, create a 'configparms' in your
build directory and add values as appropriate for your system.  The file
is included and parsed by 'make' and has to follow the conventions for
makefiles.

   It is easy to configure the GNU C Library for cross-compilation by
setting a few variables in 'configparms'.  Set 'CC' to the
cross-compiler for the target you configured the library for; it is
important to use this same 'CC' value when running 'configure', like
this: 'CC=TARGET-gcc configure TARGET'.  Set 'BUILD_CC' to the compiler
to use for programs run on the build system as part of compiling the
library.  You may need to set 'AR' to cross-compiling versions of 'ar'
if the native tools are not configured to work with object files for the
target you configured for.  When cross-compiling the GNU C Library, it
may be tested using 'make check
test-wrapper="SRCDIR/scripts/cross-test-ssh.sh HOSTNAME"', where SRCDIR
is the absolute directory name for the main source directory and
HOSTNAME is the host name of a system that can run the newly built
binaries of the GNU C Library.  The source and build directories must be
visible at the same locations on both the build system and HOSTNAME.

   In general, when testing the GNU C Library, 'test-wrapper' may be set
to the name and arguments of any program to run newly built binaries.
This program must preserve the arguments to the binary being run, its
working directory, all environment variables set as part of testing and
the standard input, output and error file descriptors.  If 'TEST-WRAPPER
env' will not work to run a program with environment variables set, then
'test-wrapper-env' must be set to a program that runs a newly built
program with environment variable assignments in effect, those
assignments being specified as 'VAR=VALUE' before the name of the
program to be run.

C.2 Installing the C Library
============================

To install the library and its header files, and the Info files of the
manual, type 'env LANGUAGE=C LC_ALL=C make install'.  This will build
things, if necessary, before installing them; however, you should still
compile everything first.  If you are installing the GNU C Library as
your primary C library, we recommend that you shut the system down to
single-user mode first, and reboot afterward.  This minimizes the risk
of breaking things when the library changes out from underneath.

   'make install' will do the entire job of upgrading from a previous
installation of the GNU C Library version 2.x.  There may sometimes be
headers left behind from the previous installation, but those are
generally harmless.  If you want to avoid leaving headers behind you can
do things in the following order.

   You must first build the library ('make'), optionally check it ('make
check'), switch the include directories and then install ('make
install').  The steps must be done in this order.  Not moving the
directory before install will result in an unusable mixture of header
files from both libraries, but configuring, building, and checking the
library requires the ability to compile and run programs against the old
library.  The new '/usr/include', after switching the include
directories and before installing the library should contain the Linux
headers, but nothing else.  If you do this, you will need to restore any
headers from libraries other than the GNU C Library yourself after
installing the library.

   You can install the GNU C Library somewhere other than where you
configured it to go by setting the 'install_root' variable on the
command line for 'make install'.  The value of this variable is
prepended to all the paths for installation.  This is useful when
setting up a chroot environment or preparing a binary distribution.  The
directory should be specified with an absolute file name.

   The GNU C Library includes a daemon called 'nscd', which you may or
may not want to run.  'nscd' caches name service lookups; it can
dramatically improve performance with NIS+, and may help with DNS as
well.

   One auxiliary program, '/usr/libexec/pt_chown', is installed setuid
'root' if the '--enable-pt_chown' configuration option is used.  This
program is invoked by the 'grantpt' function; it sets the permissions on
a pseudoterminal so it can be used by the calling process.  If you are
using a Linux kernel with the 'devpts' filesystem enabled and mounted at
'/dev/pts', you don't need this program.

   After installation you might want to configure the timezone and
locale installation of your system.  The GNU C Library comes with a
locale database which gets configured with 'localedef'.  For example, to
set up a German locale with name 'de_DE', simply issue the command
'localedef -i de_DE -f ISO-8859-1 de_DE'.  To configure all locales that
are supported by the GNU C Library, you can issue from your build
directory the command 'make localedata/install-locales'.

   To configure the locally used timezone, set the 'TZ' environment
variable.  The script 'tzselect' helps you to select the right value.
As an example, for Germany, 'tzselect' would tell you to use
'TZ='Europe/Berlin''.  For a system wide installation (the given paths
are for an installation with '--prefix=/usr'), link the timezone file
which is in '/usr/share/zoneinfo' to the file '/etc/localtime'.  For
Germany, you might execute 'ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Berlin
/etc/localtime'.

C.3 Recommended Tools for Compilation
=====================================

We recommend installing the following GNU tools before attempting to
build the GNU C Library:

   * GNU 'make' 3.79 or newer

     You need the latest version of GNU 'make'.  Modifying the GNU C
     Library to work with other 'make' programs would be so difficult
     that we recommend you port GNU 'make' instead.  *Really.*  We
     recommend GNU 'make' version 3.79.  All earlier versions have
     severe bugs or lack features.

   * GCC 4.4 or newer, GCC 4.6 recommended

     GCC 4.4 or higher is required; as of this writing, GCC 4.6 is the
     compiler we advise to use to build the GNU C Library.

     You can use whatever compiler you like to compile programs that use
     the GNU C Library.

     Check the FAQ for any special compiler issues on particular
     platforms.

   * GNU 'binutils' 2.20 or later

     You must use GNU 'binutils' (as and ld) to build the GNU C Library.
     No other assembler or linker has the necessary functionality at the
     moment.

   * GNU 'texinfo' 4.5 or later

     To correctly translate and install the Texinfo documentation you
     need this version of the 'texinfo' package.  Earlier versions do
     not understand all the tags used in the document, and the
     installation mechanism for the info files is not present or works
     differently.

   * GNU 'awk' 3.1.2, or higher

     'awk' is used in several places to generate files.  Some 'gawk'
     extensions are used, including the 'asorti' function, which was
     introduced in version 3.1.2 of 'gawk'.

   * Perl 5

     Perl is not required, but it is used if present to test the
     installation.  We may decide to use it elsewhere in the future.

   * GNU 'sed' 3.02 or newer

     'Sed' is used in several places to generate files.  Most scripts
     work with any version of 'sed'.  The known exception is the script
     'po2test.sed' in the 'intl' subdirectory which is used to generate
     'msgs.h' for the test suite.  This script works correctly only with
     GNU 'sed' 3.02.  If you like to run the test suite, you should
     definitely upgrade 'sed'.

If you change any of the 'configure.ac' files you will also need

   * GNU 'autoconf' 2.53 or higher

and if you change any of the message translation files you will need

   * GNU 'gettext' 0.10.36 or later

You may also need these packages if you upgrade your source tree using
patches, although we try to avoid this.

C.4 Specific advice for GNU/Linux systems
=========================================

If you are installing the GNU C Library on GNU/Linux systems, you need
to have the header files from a 2.6.19.1 or newer kernel around for
reference.  These headers must be installed using 'make
headers_install'; the headers present in the kernel source directory are
not suitable for direct use by the GNU C Library.  You do not need to
use that kernel, just have its headers installed where the GNU C Library
can access them, referred to here as INSTALL-DIRECTORY.  The easiest way
to do this is to unpack it in a directory such as
'/usr/src/linux-VERSION'.  In that directory, run 'make headers_install
INSTALL_HDR_PATH=INSTALL-DIRECTORY'.  Finally, configure the GNU C
Library with the option '--with-headers=INSTALL-DIRECTORY/include'.  Use
the most recent kernel you can get your hands on.  (If you are
cross-compiling the GNU C Library, you need to specify
'ARCH=ARCHITECTURE' in the 'make headers_install' command, where
ARCHITECTURE is the architecture name used by the Linux kernel, such as
'x86' or 'powerpc'.)

   After installing the GNU C Library, you may need to remove or rename
directories such as '/usr/include/linux' and '/usr/include/asm', and
replace them with copies of directories such as 'linux' and 'asm' from
'INSTALL-DIRECTORY/include'.  All directories present in
'INSTALL-DIRECTORY/include' should be copied, except that the GNU C
Library provides its own version of '/usr/include/scsi'; the files
provided by the kernel should be copied without replacing those provided
by the GNU C Library.  The 'linux', 'asm' and 'asm-generic' directories
are required to compile programs using the GNU C Library; the other
directories describe interfaces to the kernel but are not required if
not compiling programs using those interfaces.  You do not need to copy
kernel headers if you did not specify an alternate kernel header source
using '--with-headers'.

   The Filesystem Hierarchy Standard for GNU/Linux systems expects some
components of the GNU C Library installation to be in '/lib' and some in
'/usr/lib'.  This is handled automatically if you configure the GNU C
Library with '--prefix=/usr'.  If you set some other prefix or allow it
to default to '/usr/local', then all the components are installed there.

C.5 Reporting Bugs
==================

There are probably bugs in the GNU C Library.  There are certainly
errors and omissions in this manual.  If you report them, they will get
fixed.  If you don't, no one will ever know about them and they will
remain unfixed for all eternity, if not longer.

   It is a good idea to verify that the problem has not already been
reported.  Bugs are documented in two places: The file 'BUGS' describes
a number of well known bugs and the central GNU C Library bug tracking
system has a WWW interface at <http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/>.  The
WWW interface gives you access to open and closed reports.  A closed
report normally includes a patch or a hint on solving the problem.

   To report a bug, first you must find it.  With any luck, this will be
the hard part.  Once you've found a bug, make sure it's really a bug.  A
good way to do this is to see if the GNU C Library behaves the same way
some other C library does.  If so, probably you are wrong and the
libraries are right (but not necessarily).  If not, one of the libraries
is probably wrong.  It might not be the GNU C Library.  Many historical
Unix C libraries permit things that we don't, such as closing a file
twice.

   If you think you have found some way in which the GNU C Library does
not conform to the ISO and POSIX standards (*note Standards and
Portability::), that is definitely a bug.  Report it!

   Once you're sure you've found a bug, try to narrow it down to the
smallest test case that reproduces the problem.  In the case of a C
library, you really only need to narrow it down to one library function
call, if possible.  This should not be too difficult.

   The final step when you have a simple test case is to report the bug.
Do this at <http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html>.

   If you are not sure how a function should behave, and this manual
doesn't tell you, that's a bug in the manual.  Report that too!  If the
function's behavior disagrees with the manual, then either the library
or the manual has a bug, so report the disagreement.  If you find any
errors or omissions in this manual, please report them to the bug
database.  If you refer to specific sections of the manual, please
include the section names for easier identification.

D.1 Adding New Functions
========================

The process of building the library is driven by the makefiles, which
make heavy use of special features of GNU 'make'.  The makefiles are
very complex, and you probably don't want to try to understand them.
But what they do is fairly straightforward, and only requires that you
define a few variables in the right places.

   The library sources are divided into subdirectories, grouped by
topic.

   The 'string' subdirectory has all the string-manipulation functions,
'math' has all the mathematical functions, etc.

   Each subdirectory contains a simple makefile, called 'Makefile',
which defines a few 'make' variables and then includes the global
makefile 'Rules' with a line like:

     include ../Rules

The basic variables that a subdirectory makefile defines are:

'subdir'
     The name of the subdirectory, for example 'stdio'.  This variable
     *must* be defined.

'headers'
     The names of the header files in this section of the library, such
     as 'stdio.h'.

'routines'
'aux'
     The names of the modules (source files) in this section of the
     library.  These should be simple names, such as 'strlen' (rather
     than complete file names, such as 'strlen.c').  Use 'routines' for
     modules that define functions in the library, and 'aux' for
     auxiliary modules containing things like data definitions.  But the
     values of 'routines' and 'aux' are just concatenated, so there
     really is no practical difference.

'tests'
     The names of test programs for this section of the library.  These
     should be simple names, such as 'tester' (rather than complete file
     names, such as 'tester.c').  'make tests' will build and run all
     the test programs.  If a test program needs input, put the test
     data in a file called 'TEST-PROGRAM.input'; it will be given to the
     test program on its standard input.  If a test program wants to be
     run with arguments, put the arguments (all on a single line) in a
     file called 'TEST-PROGRAM.args'.  Test programs should exit with
     zero status when the test passes, and nonzero status when the test
     indicates a bug in the library or error in building.

'others'
     The names of "other" programs associated with this section of the
     library.  These are programs which are not tests per se, but are
     other small programs included with the library.  They are built by
     'make others'.

'install-lib'
'install-data'
'install'
     Files to be installed by 'make install'.  Files listed in
     'install-lib' are installed in the directory specified by 'libdir'
     in 'configparms' or 'Makeconfig' (*note Installation::).  Files
     listed in 'install-data' are installed in the directory specified
     by 'datadir' in 'configparms' or 'Makeconfig'.  Files listed in
     'install' are installed in the directory specified by 'bindir' in
     'configparms' or 'Makeconfig'.

'distribute'
     Other files from this subdirectory which should be put into a
     distribution tar file.  You need not list here the makefile itself
     or the source and header files listed in the other standard
     variables.  Only define 'distribute' if there are files used in an
     unusual way that should go into the distribution.

'generated'
     Files which are generated by 'Makefile' in this subdirectory.
     These files will be removed by 'make clean', and they will never go
     into a distribution.

'extra-objs'
     Extra object files which are built by 'Makefile' in this
     subdirectory.  This should be a list of file names like 'foo.o';
     the files will actually be found in whatever directory object files
     are being built in.  These files will be removed by 'make clean'.
     This variable is used for secondary object files needed to build
     'others' or 'tests'.

                                         features.


File: libc.info,  Node: Adding Platform-specific,  Up: Source Layout

D.1.1 Platform-specific types, macros and functions
---------------------------------------------------

It's sometimes necessary to provide nonstandard, platform-specific
features to developers.  The C library is traditionally the lowest
library layer, so it makes sense for it to provide these low-level
features.  However, including these features in the C library may be a
disadvantage if another package provides them as well as there will be
two conflicting versions of them.  Also, the features won't be available
to projects that do not use the GNU C Library but use other GNU tools,
like GCC.

   The current guidelines are:
   * If the header file provides features that only make sense on a
     particular machine architecture and have nothing to do with an
     operating system, then the features should ultimately be provided
     as GCC built-in functions.  Until then, the GNU C Library may
     provide them in the header file.  When the GCC built-in functions
     become available, those provided in the header file should be made
     conditionally available prior to the GCC version in which the
     built-in function was made available.

   * If the header file provides features that are specific to an
     operating system, both GCC and the GNU C Library could provide it,
     but the GNU C Library is preferred as it already has a lot of
     information about the operating system.

   * If the header file provides features that are specific to an
     operating system but used by the GNU C Library, then the GNU C
     Library should provide them.

   The general solution for providing low-level features is to export
them as follows:

   * A nonstandard, low-level header file that defines macros and inline
     functions should be called 'sys/platform/NAME.h'.

   * Each header file's name should include the platform name, to avoid
     users thinking there is anything in common between different the
     header files for different platforms.  For example, a
     'sys/platform/ARCH.h' name such as 'sys/platform/ppc.h' is better
     than 'sys/platform.h'.

   * A platform-specific header file provided by the GNU C Library
     should coordinate with GCC such that compiler built-in versions of
     the functions and macros are preferred if available.  This means
     that user programs will only ever need to include
     'sys/platform/ARCH.h', keeping the same names of types, macros, and
     functions for convenience and portability.

   * Each included symbol must have the prefix '__ARCH_', such as
     '__ppc_get_timebase'.

   The easiest way to provide a header file is to add it to the
'sysdep_headers' variable.  For example, the combination of
Linux-specific header files on PowerPC could be provided like this:

     sysdep_headers += sys/platform/ppc.h

   Then ensure that you have added a 'sys/platform/ppc.h' header file in
the machine-specific directory, e.g.,
'sysdeps/powerpc/sys/platform/ppc.h'.

=============================

The GNU C Library is written to be easily portable to a variety of
machines and operating systems.  Machine- and operating system-dependent
functions are well separated to make it easy to add implementations for
new machines or operating systems.  This section describes the layout of
the library source tree and explains the mechanisms used to select
machine-dependent code to use.

   All the machine-dependent and operating system-dependent files in the
library are in the subdirectory 'sysdeps' under the top-level library
source directory.  This directory contains a hierarchy of subdirectories
(*note Hierarchy Conventions::).

   Each subdirectory of 'sysdeps' contains source files for a particular
machine or operating system, or for a class of machine or operating
system (for example, systems by a particular vendor, or all machines
that use IEEE 754 floating-point format).  A configuration specifies an
ordered list of these subdirectories.  Each subdirectory implicitly
appends its parent directory to the list.  For example, specifying the
list 'unix/bsd/vax' is equivalent to specifying the list 'unix/bsd/vax
unix/bsd unix'.  A subdirectory can also specify that it implies other
subdirectories which are not directly above it in the directory
hierarchy.  If the file 'Implies' exists in a subdirectory, it lists
other subdirectories of 'sysdeps' which are appended to the list,
appearing after the subdirectory containing the 'Implies' file.  Lines
in an 'Implies' file that begin with a '#' character are ignored as
comments.  For example, 'unix/bsd/Implies' contains:
     # BSD has Internet-related things.
     unix/inet
and 'unix/Implies' contains:
     posix

So the final list is 'unix/bsd/vax unix/bsd unix/inet unix posix'.

   'sysdeps' has a "special" subdirectory called 'generic'.  It is
always implicitly appended to the list of subdirectories, so you needn't
put it in an 'Implies' file, and you should not create any
subdirectories under it intended to be new specific categories.
'generic' serves two purposes.  First, the makefiles do not bother to
look for a system-dependent version of a file that's not in 'generic'.
This means that any system-dependent source file must have an analogue
in 'generic', even if the routines defined by that file are not
implemented on other platforms.  Second, the 'generic' version of a
system-dependent file is used if the makefiles do not find a version
specific to the system you're compiling for.

   If it is possible to implement the routines in a 'generic' file in
machine-independent C, using only other machine-independent functions in
the C library, then you should do so.  Otherwise, make them stubs.  A
"stub" function is a function which cannot be implemented on a
particular machine or operating system.  Stub functions always return an
error, and set 'errno' to 'ENOSYS' (Function not implemented).  *Note
Error Reporting::.  If you define a stub function, you must place the
statement 'stub_warning(FUNCTION)', where FUNCTION is the name of your
function, after its definition.  This causes the function to be listed
in the installed '<gnu/stubs.h>', and makes GNU ld warn when the
function is used.

   Some rare functions are only useful on specific systems and aren't
defined at all on others; these do not appear anywhere in the
system-independent source code or makefiles (including the 'generic'
directory), only in the system-dependent 'Makefile' in the specific
system's subdirectory.

   If you come across a file that is in one of the main source
directories ('string', 'stdio', etc.), and you want to write a machine-
or operating system-dependent version of it, move the file into
'sysdeps/generic' and write your new implementation in the appropriate
system-specific subdirectory.  Note that if a file is to be
system-dependent, it *must not* appear in one of the main source
directories.

   There are a few special files that may exist in each subdirectory of
'sysdeps':

'Makefile'

     A makefile for this machine or operating system, or class of
     machine or operating system.  This file is included by the library
     makefile 'Makerules', which is used by the top-level makefile and
     the subdirectory makefiles.  It can change the variables set in the
     including makefile or add new rules.  It can use GNU 'make'
     conditional directives based on the variable 'subdir' (see above)
     to select different sets of variables and rules for different
     sections of the library.  It can also set the 'make' variable
     'sysdep-routines', to specify extra modules to be included in the
     library.  You should use 'sysdep-routines' rather than adding
     modules to 'routines' because the latter is used in determining
     what to distribute for each subdirectory of the main source tree.

     Each makefile in a subdirectory in the ordered list of
     subdirectories to be searched is included in order.  Since several
     system-dependent makefiles may be included, each should append to
     'sysdep-routines' rather than simply setting it:

          sysdep-routines := $(sysdep-routines) foo bar

'Subdirs'

     This file contains the names of new whole subdirectories under the
     top-level library source tree that should be included for this
     system.  These subdirectories are treated just like the
     system-independent subdirectories in the library source tree, such
     as 'stdio' and 'math'.

     Use this when there are completely new sets of functions and header
     files that should go into the library for the system this
     subdirectory of 'sysdeps' implements.  For example,
     'sysdeps/unix/inet/Subdirs' contains 'inet'; the 'inet' directory
     contains various network-oriented operations which only make sense
     to put in the library on systems that support the Internet.

'configure'

     This file is a shell script fragment to be run at configuration
     time.  The top-level 'configure' script uses the shell '.' command
     to read the 'configure' file in each system-dependent directory
     chosen, in order.  The 'configure' files are often generated from
     'configure.ac' files using Autoconf.

     A system-dependent 'configure' script will usually add things to
     the shell variables 'DEFS' and 'config_vars'; see the top-level
     'configure' script for details.  The script can check for '--with-PACKAGE'
     options that were passed to the top-level 'configure'.  For an
     option '--with-PACKAGE=VALUE' 'configure' sets the shell variable 'with_PACKAGE'
     (with any dashes in PACKAGE converted to underscores) to VALUE; if
     the option is just '--with-PACKAGE' (no argument), then it sets 'with_PACKAGE'
     to 'yes'.

'configure.ac'

     This file is an Autoconf input fragment to be processed into the
     file 'configure' in this subdirectory.  *Note
     (autoconf.info)Introduction::, for a description of Autoconf.  You
     should write either 'configure' or 'configure.ac', but not both.
     The first line of 'configure.ac' should invoke the 'm4' macro
     'GLIBC_PROVIDES'.  This macro does several 'AC_PROVIDE' calls for
     Autoconf macros which are used by the top-level 'configure' script;
     without this, those macros might be invoked again unnecessarily by
     Autoconf.

   That is the general system for how system-dependencies are isolated.

D.2.1 Layout of the 'sysdeps' Directory Hierarchy
-------------------------------------------------

A GNU configuration name has three parts: the CPU type, the
manufacturer's name, and the operating system.  'configure' uses these
to pick the list of system-dependent directories to look for.  If the
'--nfp' option is _not_ passed to 'configure', the directory
'MACHINE/fpu' is also used.  The operating system often has a "base
operating system"; for example, if the operating system is 'Linux', the
base operating system is 'unix/sysv'.  The algorithm used to pick the
list of directories is simple: 'configure' makes a list of the base
operating system, manufacturer, CPU type, and operating system, in that
order.  It then concatenates all these together with slashes in between,
to produce a directory name; for example, the configuration 'i686-linux-gnu'
results in 'unix/sysv/linux/i386/i686'.  'configure' then tries removing
each element of the list in turn, so 'unix/sysv/linux' and 'unix/sysv'
are also tried, among others.  Since the precise version number of the
operating system is often not important, and it would be very
inconvenient, for example, to have identical 'irix6.2' and 'irix6.3'
directories, 'configure' tries successively less specific operating
system names by removing trailing suffixes starting with a period.

   As an example, here is the complete list of directories that would be
tried for the configuration 'i686-linux-gnu' (with the 'crypt' and
'linuxthreads' add-on):

     sysdeps/i386/elf
     crypt/sysdeps/unix
     linuxthreads/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux
     linuxthreads/sysdeps/pthread
     linuxthreads/sysdeps/unix/sysv
     linuxthreads/sysdeps/unix
     linuxthreads/sysdeps/i386/i686
     linuxthreads/sysdeps/i386
     linuxthreads/sysdeps/pthread/no-cmpxchg
     sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386
     sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux
     sysdeps/gnu
     sysdeps/unix/common
     sysdeps/unix/mman
     sysdeps/unix/inet
     sysdeps/unix/sysv/i386/i686
     sysdeps/unix/sysv/i386
     sysdeps/unix/sysv
     sysdeps/unix/i386
     sysdeps/unix
     sysdeps/posix
     sysdeps/i386/i686
     sysdeps/i386/i486
     sysdeps/libm-i387/i686
     sysdeps/i386/fpu
     sysdeps/libm-i387
     sysdeps/i386
     sysdeps/wordsize-32
     sysdeps/ieee754
     sysdeps/libm-ieee754
     sysdeps/generic

   Different machine architectures are conventionally subdirectories at
the top level of the 'sysdeps' directory tree.  For example, 'sysdeps/sparc'
and 'sysdeps/m68k'.  These contain files specific to those machine
architectures, but not specific to any particular operating system.
There might be subdirectories for specializations of those
architectures, such as 'sysdeps/m68k/68020'.  Code which is specific to
the floating-point coprocessor used with a particular machine should go
in 'sysdeps/MACHINE/fpu'.

   There are a few directories at the top level of the 'sysdeps'
hierarchy that are not for particular machine architectures.

'generic'
     As described above (*note Porting::), this is the subdirectory that
     every configuration implicitly uses after all others.

'ieee754'
     This directory is for code using the IEEE 754 floating-point
     format, where the C type 'float' is IEEE 754 single-precision
     format, and 'double' is IEEE 754 double-precision format.  Usually
     this directory is referred to in the 'Implies' file in a machine
     architecture-specific directory, such as 'm68k/Implies'.

'libm-ieee754'
     This directory contains an implementation of a mathematical library
     usable on platforms which use IEEE 754 conformant floating-point
     arithmetic.

'libm-i387'
     This is a special case.  Ideally the code should be in
     'sysdeps/i386/fpu' but for various reasons it is kept aside.

'posix'
     This directory contains implementations of things in the library in
     terms of POSIX.1 functions.  This includes some of the POSIX.1
     functions themselves.  Of course, POSIX.1 cannot be completely
     implemented in terms of itself, so a configuration using just
     'posix' cannot be complete.

'unix'
     This is the directory for Unix-like things.  *Note Porting to
     Unix::.  'unix' implies 'posix'.  There are some special-purpose
     subdirectories of 'unix':

     'unix/common'
          This directory is for things common to both BSD and System V
          release 4.  Both 'unix/bsd' and 'unix/sysv/sysv4' imply
          'unix/common'.

     'unix/inet'
          This directory is for 'socket' and related functions on Unix
          systems.  'unix/inet/Subdirs' enables the 'inet' top-level
          subdirectory.  'unix/common' implies 'unix/inet'.

'mach'
     This is the directory for things based on the Mach microkernel from
     CMU (including GNU/Hurd systems).  Other basic operating systems
     (VMS, for example) would have their own directories at the top
     level of the 'sysdeps' hierarchy, parallel to 'unix' and 'mach'.

D.2.2 Porting the GNU C Library to Unix Systems
-----------------------------------------------

Most Unix systems are fundamentally very similar.  There are variations
between different machines, and variations in what facilities are
provided by the kernel.  But the interface to the operating system
facilities is, for the most part, pretty uniform and simple.

   The code for Unix systems is in the directory 'unix', at the top
level of the 'sysdeps' hierarchy.  This directory contains
subdirectories (and subdirectory trees) for various Unix variants.

   The functions which are system calls in most Unix systems are
implemented in assembly code, which is generated automatically from
specifications in files named 'syscalls.list'.  There are several such
files, one in 'sysdeps/unix' and others in its subdirectories.  Some
special system calls are implemented in files that are named with a
suffix of '.S'; for example, '_exit.S'.  Files ending in '.S' are run
through the C preprocessor before being fed to the assembler.

   These files all use a set of macros that should be defined in
'sysdep.h'.  The 'sysdep.h' file in 'sysdeps/unix' partially defines
them; a 'sysdep.h' file in another directory must finish defining them
for the particular machine and operating system variant.  See
'sysdeps/unix/sysdep.h' and the machine-specific 'sysdep.h'
implementations to see what these macros are and what they should do.

   The system-specific makefile for the 'unix' directory
('sysdeps/unix/Makefile') gives rules to generate several files from the
Unix system you are building the library on (which is assumed to be the
target system you are building the library _for_).  All the generated
files are put in the directory where the object files are kept; they
should not affect the source tree itself.  The files generated are
'ioctls.h', 'errnos.h', 'sys/param.h', and 'errlist.c' (for the 'stdio'
section of the library).

* PowerPC::           Facilities Specific to the PowerPC Architecture


File: libc.info,  Node: PowerPC,  Up: Platform

E.1 PowerPC-specific Facilities
===============================

Facilities specific to PowerPC that are not specific to a particular
operating system are declared in 'sys/platform/ppc.h'.

 -- Function: uint64_t __ppc_get_timebase (void)
     Preliminary: | MT-Safe | AS-Safe | AC-Safe | *Note POSIX Safety
     Concepts::.

     Read the current value of the Time Base Register.

     The "Time Base Register" is a 64-bit register that stores a
     monotonically incremented value updated at a system-dependent
     frequency that may be different from the processor frequency.  More
     information is available in 'Power ISA 2.06b - Book II - Section
     5.2'.

     '__ppc_get_timebase' uses the processor's time base facility
     directly without requiring assistance from the operating system, so
     it is very efficient.

 -- Function: uint64_t __ppc_get_timebase_freq (void)
     Preliminary: | MT-Unsafe init | AS-Unsafe corrupt:init | AC-Unsafe
     corrupt:init | *Note POSIX Safety Concepts::.

     Read the current frequency at which the Time Base Register is
     updated.

     This frequency is not related to the processor clock or the bus
     clock.  It is also possible that this frequency is not constant.
     More information is available in 'Power ISA 2.06b - Book II -
     Section 5.2'.

   The following functions provide hints about the usage of resources
that are shared with other processors.  They can be used, for example,
if a program waiting on a lock intends to divert the shared resources to
be used by other processors.  More information is available in 'Power
ISA 2.06b - Book II - Section 3.2'.

 -- Function: void __ppc_yield (void)
     Preliminary: | MT-Safe | AS-Safe | AC-Safe | *Note POSIX Safety
     Concepts::.

     Provide a hint that performance will probably be improved if shared
     resources dedicated to the executing processor are released for use
     by other processors.

 -- Function: void __ppc_mdoio (void)
     Preliminary: | MT-Safe | AS-Safe | AC-Safe | *Note POSIX Safety
     Concepts::.

     Provide a hint that performance will probably be improved if shared
     resources dedicated to the executing processor are released until
     all outstanding storage accesses to caching-inhibited storage have
     been completed.

 -- Function: void __ppc_mdoom (void)
     Preliminary: | MT-Safe | AS-Safe | AC-Safe | *Note POSIX Safety
     Concepts::.

     Provide a hint that performance will probably be improved if shared
     resources dedicated to the executing processor are released until
     all outstanding storage accesses to cacheable storage for which the
     data is not in the cache have been completed.

 -- Function: void __ppc_set_ppr_med (void)
     Preliminary: | MT-Safe | AS-Safe | AC-Safe | *Note POSIX Safety
     Concepts::.

     Set the Program Priority Register to medium value (default).

     The "Program Priority Register" (PPR) is a 64-bit register that
     controls the program's priority.  By adjusting the PPR value the
     programmer may improve system throughput by causing the system
     resources to be used more efficiently, especially in contention
     situations.  The three unprivileged states available are covered by
     the functions '__ppc_set_ppr_med' (medium - default),
     '__ppc_set_ppc_low' (low) and '__ppc_set_ppc_med_low' (medium low).
     More information available in 'Power ISA 2.06b - Book II - Section
     3.1'.

 -- Function: void __ppc_set_ppr_low (void)
     Preliminary: | MT-Safe | AS-Safe | AC-Safe | *Note POSIX Safety
     Concepts::.

     Set the Program Priority Register to low value.

 -- Function: void __ppc_set_ppr_med_low (void)
     Preliminary: | MT-Safe | AS-Safe | AC-Safe | *Note POSIX Safety
     Concepts::.

     Set the Program Priority Register to medium low value.

     'sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64' subdirectory) come from the IBM Accurate
     Mathematical Library, contributed by IBM.

   * Many of the IA64 math functions are taken from a collection of
     "Highly Optimized Mathematical Functions for Itanium" that Intel
     makes available under a free license; see the file 'LICENSES' for
     details.

Appendix G Free Software Needs Free Documentation
*************************************************

The biggest deficiency in the free software community today is not in
the software--it is the lack of good free documentation that we can
include with the free software.  Many of our most important programs do
not come with free reference manuals and free introductory texts.
Documentation is an essential part of any software package; when an
important free software package does not come with a free manual and a
free tutorial, that is a major gap.  We have many such gaps today.

   Consider Perl, for instance.  The tutorial manuals that people
normally use are non-free.  How did this come about?  Because the
authors of those manuals published them with restrictive terms--no
copying, no modification, source files not available--which exclude them
from the free software world.

   That wasn't the first time this sort of thing happened, and it was
far from the last.  Many times we have heard a GNU user eagerly describe
a manual that he is writing, his intended contribution to the community,
only to learn that he had ruined everything by signing a publication
contract to make it non-free.

   Free documentation, like free software, is a matter of freedom, not
price.  The problem with the non-free manual is not that publishers
charge a price for printed copies--that in itself is fine.  (The Free
Software Foundation sells printed copies of manuals, too.)  The problem
is the restrictions on the use of the manual.  Free manuals are
available in source code form, and give you permission to copy and
modify.  Non-free manuals do not allow this.

   The criteria of freedom for a free manual are roughly the same as for
free software.  Redistribution (including the normal kinds of commercial
redistribution) must be permitted, so that the manual can accompany
every copy of the program, both on-line and on paper.

   Permission for modification of the technical content is crucial too.
When people modify the software, adding or changing features, if they
are conscientious they will change the manual too--so they can provide
accurate and clear documentation for the modified program.  A manual
that leaves you no choice but to write a new manual to document a
changed version of the program is not really available to our community.

   Some kinds of limits on the way modification is handled are
acceptable.  For example, requirements to preserve the original author's
copyright notice, the distribution terms, or the list of authors, are
ok.  It is also no problem to require modified versions to include
notice that they were modified.  Even entire sections that may not be
deleted or changed are acceptable, as long as they deal with
nontechnical topics (like this one).  These kinds of restrictions are
acceptable because they don't obstruct the community's normal use of the
manual.

   However, it must be possible to modify all the _technical_ content of
the manual, and then distribute the result in all the usual media,
through all the usual channels.  Otherwise, the restrictions obstruct
the use of the manual, it is not free, and we need another manual to
replace it.

   Please spread the word about this issue.  Our community continues to
lose manuals to proprietary publishing.  If we spread the word that free
software needs free reference manuals and free tutorials, perhaps the
next person who wants to contribute by writing documentation will
realize, before it is too late, that only free manuals contribute to the
free software community.

   If you are writing documentation, please insist on publishing it
under the GNU Free Documentation License or another free documentation
license.  Remember that this decision requires your approval--you don't
have to let the publisher decide.  Some commercial publishers will use a
free license if you insist, but they will not propose the option; it is
up to you to raise the issue and say firmly that this is what you want.
If the publisher you are dealing with refuses, please try other
publishers.  If you're not sure whether a proposed license is free,
write to <licensing@gnu.org>.

   You can encourage commercial publishers to sell more free, copylefted
manuals and tutorials by buying them, and particularly by buying copies
from the publishers that paid for their writing or for major
improvements.  Meanwhile, try to avoid buying non-free documentation at
all.  Check the distribution terms of a manual before you buy it, and
insist that whoever seeks your business must respect your freedom.
Check the history of the book, and try reward the publishers that have
paid or pay the authors to work on it.

   The Free Software Foundation maintains a list of free documentation
published by other publishers, at
<http://www.fsf.org/doc/other-free-books.html>.

Appendix H GNU Lesser General Public License
********************************************

                      Version 2.1, February 1999

     Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
     51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA

     Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
     of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

     [This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL.  It also counts
     as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence the
     version number 2.1.]

Preamble
--------

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to
share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public Licenses are
intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to
make sure the software is free for all its users.

   This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some
specially designated software--typically libraries--of the Free Software
Foundation and other authors who decide to use it.  You can use it too,
but we suggest you first think carefully about whether this license or
the ordinary General Public License is the better strategy to use in any
particular case, based on the explanations below.

   When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use,
not price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that
you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge
for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get
it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of it
in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do these
things.

   To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these
rights.  These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for
you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.

   For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis
or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave
you.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source
code.  If you link other code with the library, you must provide
complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them
with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling it.
And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.

   We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the
library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal
permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.

   To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that there
is no warranty for the free library.  Also, if the library is modified
by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know that what they
have is not the original version, so that the original author's
reputation will not be affected by problems that might be introduced by
others.

   Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of
any free program.  We wish to make sure that a company cannot
effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a
restrictive license from a patent holder.  Therefore, we insist that any
patent license obtained for a version of the library must be consistent
with the full freedom of use specified in this license.

   Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the
ordinary GNU General Public License.  This license, the GNU Lesser
General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and is
quite different from the ordinary General Public License.  We use this
license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those libraries
into non-free programs.

   When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using
a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a
combined work, a derivative of the original library.  The ordinary
General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the entire
combination fits its criteria of freedom.  The Lesser General Public
License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with the
library.

   We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it
does _Less_ to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General
Public License.  It also provides other free software developers Less of
an advantage over competing non-free programs.  These disadvantages are
the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many
libraries.  However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain
special circumstances.

   For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to
encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it
becomes a de-facto standard.  To achieve this, non-free programs must be
allowed to use the library.  A more frequent case is that a free library
does the same job as widely used non-free libraries.  In this case,
there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free software
only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.

   In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free
programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of free
software.  For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in non-free
programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU operating system,
as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating system.

   Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the
users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is linked
with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run that program
using a modified version of the Library.

   The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
modification follow.  Pay close attention to the difference between a
"work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library".  The
former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must
be combined with the library in order to run.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
---------------------------------------------------------------

  0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other
     program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or
     other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms
     of this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License").
     Each licensee is addressed as "you".

     A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
     prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs
     (which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.

     The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work
     which has been distributed under these terms.  A "work based on the
     Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under
     copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a
     portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or
     translated straightforwardly into another language.  (Hereinafter,
     translation is included without limitation in the term
     "modification".)

     "Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
     making modifications to it.  For a library, complete source code
     means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
     associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
     control compilation and installation of the library.

     Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are
     not covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act
     of running a program using the Library is not restricted, and
     output from such a program is covered only if its contents
     constitute a work based on the Library (independent of the use of
     the Library in a tool for writing it).  Whether that is true
     depends on what the Library does and what the program that uses the
     Library does.

  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's
     complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided
     that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
     appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep
     intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the
     absence of any warranty; and distribute a copy of this License
     along with the Library.

     You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
     and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange
     for a fee.

  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion of
     it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and
     distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
     above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:

       a. The modified work must itself be a software library.

       b. You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
          stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.

       c. You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
          charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.

       d. If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or
          a table of data to be supplied by an application program that
          uses the facility, other than as an argument passed when the
          facility is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to
          ensure that, in the event an application does not supply such
          function or table, the facility still operates, and performs
          whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful.

          (For example, a function in a library to compute square roots
          has a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the
          application.  Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any
          application-supplied function or table used by this function
          must be optional: if the application does not supply it, the
          square root function must still compute square roots.)

     These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
     identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the
     Library, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate
     works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply
     to those sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But
     when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a
     work based on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on
     the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees
     extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part
     regardless of who wrote it.

     Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or
     contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the
     intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of
     derivative or collective works based on the Library.

     In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the
     Library with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a
     volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other
     work under the scope of this License.

  3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public
     License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library.  To
     do this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License,
     so that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License,
     version 2, instead of to this License.  (If a newer version than
     version 2 of the ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared,
     then you can specify that version instead if you wish.)  Do not
     make any other change in these notices.

     Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for
     that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to
     all subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.

     This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of the
     Library into a program that is not a library.

  4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative
     of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the
     terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany it with
     the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must
     be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
     medium customarily used for software interchange.

     If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy
     from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy
     the source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to
     distribute the source code, even though third parties are not
     compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

  5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
     Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled
     or linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library".  Such
     a work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and
     therefore falls outside the scope of this License.

     However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library
     creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because
     it contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses
     the library".  The executable is therefore covered by this License.
     Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.

     When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header
     file that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may
     be a derivative work of the Library even though the source code is
     not.  Whether this is true is especially significant if the work
     can be linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a
     library.  The threshold for this to be true is not precisely
     defined by law.

     If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data
     structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline
     functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object
     file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a
     derivative work.  (Executables containing this object code plus
     portions of the Library will still fall under Section 6.)

     Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may
     distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section
     6.  Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6,
     whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.

  6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or link
     a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a work
     containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work under
     terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit modification
     of the work for the customer's own use and reverse engineering for
     debugging such modifications.

     You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
     Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered
     by this License.  You must supply a copy of this License.  If the
     work during execution displays copyright notices, you must include
     the copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a
     reference directing the user to the copy of this License.  Also,
     you must do one of these things:

       a. Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
          machine-readable source code for the Library including
          whatever changes were used in the work (which must be
          distributed under Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is
          an executable linked with the Library, with the complete
          machine-readable "work that uses the Library", as object code
          and/or source code, so that the user can modify the Library
          and then relink to produce a modified executable containing
          the modified Library.  (It is understood that the user who
          changes the contents of definitions files in the Library will
          not necessarily be able to recompile the application to use
          the modified definitions.)

       b. Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
          Library.  A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run
          time a copy of the library already present on the user's
          computer system, rather than copying library functions into
          the executable, and (2) will operate properly with a modified
          version of the library, if the user installs one, as long as
          the modified version is interface-compatible with the version
          that the work was made with.

       c. Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least
          three years, to give the same user the materials specified in
          Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more than the cost of
          performing this distribution.

       d. If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
          from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the
          above specified materials from the same place.

       e. Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
          materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.

     For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the
     Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for
     reproducing the executable from it.  However, as a special
     exception, the materials to be distributed need not include
     anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
     form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of
     the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that
     component itself accompanies the executable.

     It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
     restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
     accompany the operating system.  Such a contradiction means you
     cannot use both them and the Library together in an executable that
     you distribute.

  7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
     Library side-by-side in a single library together with other
     library facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such
     a combined library, provided that the separate distribution of the
     work based on the Library and of the other library facilities is
     otherwise permitted, and provided that you do these two things:

       a. Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work
          based on the Library, uncombined with any other library
          facilities.  This must be distributed under the terms of the
          Sections above.

       b. Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact
          that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining
          where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same
          work.

  8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the
     Library except as expressly provided under this License.  Any
     attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or
     distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate
     your rights under this License.  However, parties who have received
     copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their
     licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full
     compliance.

  9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
     signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify
     or distribute the Library or its derivative works.  These actions
     are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.
     Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Library (or any work
     based on the Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License
     to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying,
     distributing or modifying the Library or works based on it.

  10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
     Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
     original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the
     Library subject to these terms and conditions.  You may not impose
     any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights
     granted herein.  You are not responsible for enforcing compliance
     by third parties with this License.

  11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
     infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent
     issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order,
     agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this
     License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this
     License.  If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously
     your obligations under this License and any other pertinent
     obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the
     Library at all.  For example, if a patent license would not permit
     royalty-free redistribution of the Library by all those who receive
     copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you
     could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely
     from distribution of the Library.

     If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable
     under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is
     intended to apply, and the section as a whole is intended to apply
     in other circumstances.

     It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
     patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of
     any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting
     the integrity of the free software distribution system which is
     implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
     generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
     through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
     system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is
     willing to distribute software through any other system and a
     licensee cannot impose that choice.

     This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed
     to be a consequence of the rest of this License.

  12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in
     certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces,
     the original copyright holder who places the Library under this
     License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation
     excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only
     in or among countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this
     License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of
     this License.

  13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
     versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time.
     Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version,
     but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.

     Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the
     Library specifies a version number of this License which applies to
     it and "any later version", you have the option of following the
     terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version
     published by the Free Software Foundation.  If the Library does not
     specify a license version number, you may choose any version ever
     published by the Free Software Foundation.

  14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free
     programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these,
     write to the author to ask for permission.  For software which is
     copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
     Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this.  Our
     decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free
     status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the
     sharing and reuse of software generally.

                              NO WARRANTY

  15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
     WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
     LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS
     AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
     OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT
     LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS
     FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND
     PERFORMANCE OF THE LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE
     DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR
     OR CORRECTION.

  16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
     WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY
     MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE
     LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL,
     INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR
     INABILITY TO USE THE LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
     DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU
     OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY
     OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN
     ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries
----------------------------------------------

If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest
possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that
everyone can redistribute and change.  You can do so by permitting
redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of
the ordinary General Public License).

   To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library.
It is safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most
effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have
at least the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is
found.

     ONE LINE TO GIVE THE LIBRARY'S NAME AND AN IDEA OF WHAT IT DOES.
     Copyright (C) YEAR  NAME OF AUTHOR

     This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it
     under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License as published by
     the Free Software Foundation; either version 2.1 of the License, or (at
     your option) any later version.

     This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but
     WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
     MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the GNU
     Lesser General Public License for more details.

     You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public
     License along with this library; if not, write to the Free Software
     Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301,
     USA.

   Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper
mail.

   You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or
your school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library,
if necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:

     Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the library
     `Frob' (a library for tweaking knobs) written by James Random Hacker.

     SIGNATURE OF TY COON, 1 April 1990
     Ty Coon, President of Vice

   That's all there is to it!
