and we have not done an explicit 'cvs login', then use a default password
of "anoncvs". This allows things like:
setenv CVSROOT :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.freebsd.org:/cvs
cvs checkout src (without doing the normal 'cvs login' for pserver mode)
but this runs over the :pserver: protocol rather than the more troublesome
rsh. Naturally, the server had better be running in -R (readonly) mode :-)
CVSROOT/passwd file is empty. A 'cvs login' still seems to be required
since the cvs client doesn't seem to believe it's possible to not need
a password (yet :-). This is intended for cheap anoncvs use.
This is mostly intended for use on freefall where we'd like to provide
a passwd file for easy anoncvs mirroring access, but don't want to open
up the pserver on freefall itself.
While here, some initial tweaks intended for allowing an empty pserver
password. I'm not sure that this works yet.
while calling libdiff. It's too ugly and not worth the recursion problems
when there is a malloc failure (which writes to stderr - now diverted via
the buf system, which calls malloc, which causes another error message etc).
We can live with the standard artificial slowdown, but reduce the time a
bit and only delay when we really need to (ie: when running as a server).
The usleep time could probably use some tuning, it basically needs to
replace the time that it used to take to fork a large process, exec gnudiff
and the time that gnudiff took before writing the initial output.
This eliminates a whole mess of other hacks I was considering that changed
use of xmalloc to alloca() etc. It was going too fast in the wrong
direction.
not being echoed to the output. So as a _hack_ to get the world building
again, redirect the readline rl_outstream to stderr when not interactive.
The proper way to handle non-interactive mode is to read from stdin
and don't worry about edit mode, but this is GNU so it's not worth the
time thinking about. I'm already pissed off that I even had to look
at this "nice code".
depends on the typo in the #ifdef in order to work.. Since the line has
been touched, leave a note there so that nobody else tries to "fix" it
again.

new ones that we generate. We used to always mix the old header with
the new .cc file. This worked because Cygnus's yacc is surprisingly
compatible with our yacc.
aout and elf support. freebsd-elf.h died as a result, so the BINFORMAT
test for elf in src/gnu/usr.bin/cc/cc_tool/Makefile will need to
use freebsd.h, not freebsd-elf.h. That means that alpha will have to
go the same way. The new alpha/freebsd.h has the alpha/freebsd-elf.h
definitions merged in.

This shouldn't cause any major merge problems later.
i386-elf because that is what will be used for FreeBSD/Alpha.
Change the STARTFILE_SPEC to match the non-aout version of i386 so
that the csu files can be built in exactly the same way as i386-elf.
This means that FreeBSD/Alpha departs from NetBSD/Alpha which uses
crt0 and crtbegin/crtend. Since i386-aout uses crt0, I guess it was
decided that i386-elf should use crt1. i386-elf also references
crti and with this change, so does FreeBAS/Alpha.
I think it is important for FreeBSD to have a consistent implementation
across architectures and since ELF is quite compatible (ignoring
differences in 32 and 64 bits), gcc might as well be configured the
same.
Another change is that the entry symbol is _start, not __start as
in NetBSD.
starting with hashes have a sub-optimal impact. This change adds
/* */ around the block comment in the header of each file to make
them friendly to cpp. Also added an Id keyword cause I like to
see revision numbers in source.
a.out gas and the binutils gas (elf or a.out) with a single compiler.
This uses other infrastructure not yet committed, in order to support
both a.out and elf it needs to be able to get to both a.out and elf
gas, ld, libs, crt* etc. So for now, the support is pretty much dormant.
The new freebsd.h file is based on the old freebsd-elf.h file (which has a
long lineage, right back through linux and svr4 files). The change is
pretty dramatic from a gcc internals standpoint as it overrides a lot of
definitions in order to generate different output based on target mode.
There is potential for screw-ups, so please be on the lookout - gcc's
configuration mechanism wasn't really meant for this kind of thing.
It's believed to compile world etc just fine under both a.out and elf, can
handle global constructors and destructors, handles the differences in
a.out and elf stabs, and what sections things like exceptions go in.
The initial idea came from i386/osfrose.h which is a dual rose/elf format
target. These two are not as diverse as a.out and elf it would seem.
The cc front-end uses external configuration to determine default object
format (still being thrashed out, so read the source if you want to see
it so far), and has a '-aout' and '-elf' override command line switch.
There are some other internal switches that can be accessed, namely -maout,
-mno-aout, -munderscores and -mnounderscores. The underscore and local
symbol prefixing rules are controllable seperately to the output format.
(ie: it's possible to generate a.out without the _ prefixes on symbols and
also to generate elf with the _ prefixes. This isn't quite optimal, but
does seem to work pretty well, except the linkers don't always recognise
the local symbols without their normal names)
The default format is a.out (still), nobody should see any major changes.
With both elf and a.out tools and libraries installed:

Since my co-conspirators put a lot of effort into this too, I'll add them
so they can share the blame^H^H^H^H^Hglory. :-)

GNU rejected this change because they felt it would be an unacceptable
incompatibility to change the output format at this point -- even
though it was wrong to begin with.
affects speed of doing 'cvs diff' (in all modes) and 'cvs update' over the
network.
1: don't pause at all unless running in server protocol mode.
2: if running in server protocol mode, do a kludge that intercepts the
stdout and stderr write functions and diverts them to cvs_output() and
cvs_outerr(). Yes, this might be done with fwopen() etc, but that also
requires copying "FILE" structs since you can't freopen stdout etc and
specify functions at the same time.
This HACK will go away once the cvs folks have done their changes to the
library version of gnu diff to use the callbacks as mentioned in the
comments.
