Import new 2-clause BSD licenced implementation of the bc and dc commands
These implementations of the bc and dc programs offer a number of advantages
compared to the current implementations in the FreeBSD base system:
- They do not depend on external large number functions (i.e. no dependency
on OpenSSL or any other large number library)
- They implements all features found in GNU bc/dc (with the exception of
the forking of sub-processes, which the author of this version considers
as a security issue).
- They are significantly faster than the current code in base (more than
2 orders of magnitude in some of my tests, e.g. for 12345^100000).
- They should be fully compatible with all features and the behavior of the
current implementations in FreeBSD (not formally verified).
- They support POSIX message catalogs and come with localized messages in
Chinese, Dutch, English, French, German, Japanese, Polish, Portugueze,
and Russian.
- They offer very detailed man-pages that provide far more information than
the current ones.

# Build
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This `bc` attempts to be as portable as possible. It can be built on any
|
|
|
|
|
POSIX-compliant system.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To accomplish that, a POSIX-compatible, custom `configure.sh` script is used to
|
|
|
|
|
select build options, compiler, and compiler flags and generate a `Makefile`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The general form of configuring, building, and installing this `bc` is as
|
|
|
|
|
follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
[ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE=<value>...] ./configure.sh [build_options...]
|
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To get all of the options, including any useful environment variables, use
|
|
|
|
|
either one of the following commands:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
./configure.sh -h
|
|
|
|
|
./configure.sh --help
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
***WARNING***: even though `configure.sh` supports both option types, short and
|
|
|
|
|
long, it does not support handling both at the same time. Use only one type.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To learn the available `make` targets run the following command after running
|
|
|
|
|
the `configure.sh` script:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
make help
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|

accepted environment variables and [Build Options][5] for more detail about all

|
2021-04-06 08:44:52 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The library can also be built on Windows.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Visual Studio
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In Visual Studio, open up the solution file (`bc.sln` for `bc`, or `bcl.sln` for
|
|
|
|
|
the library), select the desired configuration, and build.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### MSBuild
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To build with MSBuild, first, *be sure that you are using the MSBuild that comes
|
|
|
|
|
with Visual Studio*.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To build `bc`, run the following from the root directory:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
2021-10-06 21:27:16 +00:00
|
|
|
msbuild -property:Configuration=<config> vs/bc.sln
|
2021-04-06 08:44:52 +00:00
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
where `<config>` is either one of `Debug` or `Release`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To build the library, run the following from the root directory:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
2021-10-06 21:27:16 +00:00

|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
2021-10-06 21:27:16 +00:00
|
|
|
where `<config>` is either one of `Debug`, `ReleaseMD`, or `ReleaseMT`.

## POSIX-Compatible Systems
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Building `bc`, `dc`, and `bcl` (the library) is more complex than on Windows
|
|
|
|
|
because many build options are supported.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Cross Compiling
|
Import new 2-clause BSD licenced implementation of the bc and dc commands
These implementations of the bc and dc programs offer a number of advantages
compared to the current implementations in the FreeBSD base system:
- They do not depend on external large number functions (i.e. no dependency
on OpenSSL or any other large number library)
- They implements all features found in GNU bc/dc (with the exception of
the forking of sub-processes, which the author of this version considers
as a security issue).
- They are significantly faster than the current code in base (more than
2 orders of magnitude in some of my tests, e.g. for 12345^100000).
- They should be fully compatible with all features and the behavior of the
current implementations in FreeBSD (not formally verified).
- They support POSIX message catalogs and come with localized messages in
Chinese, Dutch, English, French, German, Japanese, Polish, Portugueze,
and Russian.
- They offer very detailed man-pages that provide far more information than
the current ones.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To cross-compile this `bc`, an appropriate compiler must be present and assigned
|
|
|
|
|
to the environment variable `HOSTCC` or `HOST_CC` (the two are equivalent,
|
|
|
|
|
though `HOSTCC` is prioritized). This is in order to bootstrap core file(s), if
|
|
|
|
|
the architectures are not compatible (i.e., unlike i686 on x86_64). Thus, the
|
|
|
|
|
approach is:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
HOSTCC="/path/to/native/compiler" ./configure.sh
|
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`HOST_CC` will work in exactly the same way.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`HOSTCFLAGS` and `HOST_CFLAGS` can be used to set compiler flags for `HOSTCC`.
|
|
|
|
|
(The two are equivalent, as `HOSTCC` and `HOST_CC` are.) `HOSTCFLAGS` is
|
|
|
|
|
prioritized over `HOST_CFLAGS`. If neither are present, `HOSTCC` (or `HOST_CC`)
|
|
|
|
|
uses `CFLAGS` (see [Build Environment Variables][4] for more details).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is expected that `CC` produces code for the target system and `HOSTCC`
|
|
|
|
|
produces code for the host system. See [Build Environment Variables][4] for more
|
|
|
|
|
details.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If an emulator is necessary to run the bootstrap binaries, it can be set with
|
|
|
|
|
the environment variable `GEN_EMU`.

#### `LDFLAGS`

Import new 2-clause BSD licenced implementation of the bc and dc commands
These implementations of the bc and dc programs offer a number of advantages
compared to the current implementations in the FreeBSD base system:
- They do not depend on external large number functions (i.e. no dependency
on OpenSSL or any other large number library)
- They implements all features found in GNU bc/dc (with the exception of
the forking of sub-processes, which the author of this version considers
as a security issue).
- They are significantly faster than the current code in base (more than
2 orders of magnitude in some of my tests, e.g. for 12345^100000).
- They should be fully compatible with all features and the behavior of the
current implementations in FreeBSD (not formally verified).
- They support POSIX message catalogs and come with localized messages in
Chinese, Dutch, English, French, German, Japanese, Polish, Portugueze,
and Russian.
- They offer very detailed man-pages that provide far more information than
the current ones.

The number of bits in a C `long` type. This is mostly for the embedded space.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This `bc` uses `long`s internally for overflow checking. In C99, a `long` is
|
|
|
|
|
required to be 32 bits. For this reason, on 8-bit and 16-bit microcontrollers,
|
|
|
|
|
the generated code to do math with `long` types may be inefficient.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For most normal desktop systems, setting this is unnecessary, except that 32-bit
|
|
|
|
|
platforms with 64-bit longs may want to set it to `32`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Defaults to the default value of `LONG_BIT` for the target platform. For
|
|
|
|
|
compliance with the `bc` spec, the minimum allowed value is `32`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is an error if the specified value is greater than the default value of
|
|
|
|
|
`LONG_BIT` for the target platform.

`gen/strgen.sh` removes the need to compile and run an executable on the host
|
|
|
|
|
machine since `gen/strgen.sh` is a POSIX shell script. However, `gen/lib2.bc` is
|
|
|
|
|
perilously close to 4095 characters, the max supported length of a string
|
|
|
|
|
literal in C99 (and it could be added to in the future), and `gen/strgen.sh`
|
|
|
|
|
generates a string literal instead of an array, as `gen/strgen.c` does. For most
|
|
|
|
|
production-ready compilers, this limit probably is not enforced, but it could
|
|
|
|
|
be. Both options are still available for this reason.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you are sure your compiler does not have the limit and do not want to compile
|
|
|
|
|
and run a binary on the host machine, set this variable to "0". Any other value,
|
|
|
|
|
or a non-existent value, will cause the build system to compile and run
|
|
|
|
|
`gen/strgen.c`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Default is "".

Import new 2-clause BSD licenced implementation of the bc and dc commands
These implementations of the bc and dc programs offer a number of advantages
compared to the current implementations in the FreeBSD base system:
- They do not depend on external large number functions (i.e. no dependency
on OpenSSL or any other large number library)
- They implements all features found in GNU bc/dc (with the exception of
the forking of sub-processes, which the author of this version considers
as a security issue).
- They are significantly faster than the current code in base (more than
2 orders of magnitude in some of my tests, e.g. for 12345^100000).
- They should be fully compatible with all features and the behavior of the
current implementations in FreeBSD (not formally verified).
- They support POSIX message catalogs and come with localized messages in
Chinese, Dutch, English, French, German, Japanese, Polish, Portugueze,
and Russian.
- They offer very detailed man-pages that provide far more information than
the current ones.

This `bc` comes with several build options, all of which are enabled by default.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
All options can be used with each other, with a few exceptions that will be

#### Library

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To build the math library, use the following commands for the configure step:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
./configure.sh -a
|
|
|
|
|
./configure.sh --library
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Both commands are equivalent.

vendor/bc: imoport release 5.0.0
This is a new major release with a number of changes and extensions:
- Limited the number of temporary numbers and made the space for them
static so that allocating more space for them cannot fail.
- Allowed integers with non-zero scale to be used with power, places,
and shift operators.
- Added greatest common divisor and least common multiple to lib2.bc.
- Made bc and dc UTF-8 capable.
- Added the ability for users to have bc and dc quit on SIGINT.
- Added the ability for users to disable prompt and TTY mode by
environment variables.
- Added the ability for users to redefine keywords.
- Added dc's modular exponentiation and divmod to bc.
- Added the ability to assign strings to variables and array elements
and pass them to functions in bc.
- Added dc's asciify command and stream printing to bc.
- Added bitwise and, or, xor, left shift, right shift, reverse,
left rotate, right rotate, and mod functions to lib2.bc.
- Added the functions s2u(x) and s2un(x,n), to lib2.bc.

When the library is built, history and locales are disabled, and the
|
2020-11-26 17:27:07 +00:00
|
|
|
functionality for `bc` and `dc` are both enabled, though the executables are
|
|
|
|
|
*not* built. This is because the library's options clash with the executables.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To build an optimized version of the library, users can pass optimization
|
|
|
|
|
options to `configure.sh` or include them in `CFLAGS`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The library API can be found in `manuals/bcl.3.md` or `man bcl` once the library
|
|
|
|
|
is installed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The library is built as `bin/libbcl.a`.

This `bc` has 7 extra operators:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* `$` (truncation to integer)
|
|
|
|
|
* `@` (set precision)
|
|
|
|
|
* `@=` (set precision and assign)
|
|
|
|
|
* `<<` (shift number left, shifts radix right)
|
|
|
|
|
* `<<=` (shift number left and assign)
|
|
|
|
|
* `>>` (shift number right, shifts radix left)
|
|
|
|
|
* `>>=` (shift number right and assign)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There is no assignment version of `$` because it is a unary operator.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The assignment versions of the above operators are not available in `dc`, but
|
|
|
|
|
the others are, as the operators `$`, `@`, `H`, and `h`, respectively.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In addition, this `bc` has the option of outputting in scientific notation or
|
|
|
|
|
engineering notation. It can also take input in scientific or engineering
|
|
|
|
|
notation. On top of that, it has a pseudo-random number generator. (See the

Extra operators, scientific notation, engineering notation, and the

pseudo-random number generator can be disabled by passing either the `-E` flag
|

or the `--disable-extra-math` option to `configure.sh`, as follows:

#### Settings
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This `bc` and `dc` have a few settings to override default behavior.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The defaults for these settings can be set by package maintainers, and the
|
|
|
|
|
settings themselves can be overriden by users.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To set a default to **on**, use the `-s` or `--set-default-on` option to
|
|
|
|
|
`configure.sh`, with the name of the setting, as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
./configure.sh -s bc.banner
|
|
|
|
|
./configure.sh --set-default-on=bc.banner
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Both commands are equivalent.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To set a default to **off**, use the `-S` or `--set-default-off` option to
|
|
|
|
|
`configure.sh`, with the name of the setting, as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
./configure.sh -S bc.banner
|
|
|
|
|
./configure.sh --set-default-off=bc.banner
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Both commands are equivalent.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Users can override the default settings set by packagers with environment
|
|
|
|
|
variables. If the environment variable has an integer, then the setting is
|
|
|
|
|
turned **on** for a non-zero integer, and **off** for zero.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The table of the available settings, along with their defaults and the
|
|
|
|
|
environment variables to override them, is below:

|

|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These settings are not meant to be changed on a whim. They are meant to ensure
|
|
|
|
|
that this bc and dc will conform to the expectations of the user on each
|
|
|
|
|
platform.

##### Manpages
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To disable installing manpages, pass either the `-M` flag or the
|
|
|
|
|
`--disable-man-pages` option to `configure.sh` as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
./configure.sh -M
|
|
|
|
|
./configure.sh --disable-man-pages
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Both commands are equivalent.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
##### Locales
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default, `bc` and `dc` do not install all locales, but only the enabled
|
|
|
|
|
locales. If `DESTDIR` exists and is not empty, then they will install all of
|
|
|
|
|
the locales that exist on the system. The `-l` flag or `--install-all-locales`
|
|
|
|
|
option skips all of that and just installs all of the locales that `bc` and `dc`
|
|
|
|
|
have, regardless. To enable that behavior, you can pass the `-l` flag or the
|
|
|
|
|
`--install-all-locales` option to `configure.sh`, as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
./configure.sh -l
|
|
|
|
|
./configure.sh --install-all-locales
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Both commands are equivalent.

The `configure.sh` script will accept an optimization level to pass to the
|
|
|
|
|
compiler. Because `bc` is orders of magnitude faster with optimization, I
|
|
|
|
|
***highly*** recommend package and distro maintainers pass the highest
|
|
|
|
|
optimization level available in `CC` to `configure.sh` with the `-O` flag or
|
|
|
|
|
`--opt` option, as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
./configure.sh -O3
|
|
|
|
|
./configure.sh --opt 3
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Both commands are equivalent.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The build and install can then be run as normal:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As usual, `configure.sh` will also accept additional `CFLAGS` on the command
|
|
|
|
|
line, so for SSE4 architectures, the following can add a bit more speed:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
CFLAGS="-march=native -msse4" ./configure.sh -O3
|
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Building with link-time optimization (`-flto` in clang) can further increase the
|
|
|
|
|
performance. I ***highly*** recommend doing so.

Import new 2-clause BSD licenced implementation of the bc and dc commands
These implementations of the bc and dc programs offer a number of advantages

- They do not depend on external large number functions (i.e. no dependency
on OpenSSL or any other large number library)
- They implements all features found in GNU bc/dc (with the exception of
the forking of sub-processes, which the author of this version considers
as a security issue).

### Build Type
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`bc` and `dc` have 8 build types, affected by the [History][8], [NLS (Locale
|
|
|
|
|
Support)][9], and [Extra Math][10] build options.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The build types are as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* `A`: Nothing disabled.
|
|
|
|
|
* `E`: Extra math disabled.
|
|
|
|
|
* `H`: History disabled.
|
|
|
|
|
* `N`: NLS disabled.
|
|
|
|
|
* `EH`: Extra math and History disabled.
|
|
|
|
|
* `EN`: Extra math and NLS disabled.
|
|
|
|
|
* `HN`: History and NLS disabled.
|
|
|
|
|
* `EHN`: Extra math, History, and NLS all disabled.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These build types correspond to the generated manuals in `manuals/bc` and
|
|
|
|
|
`manuals/dc`.

|
|
|
|
|
|
When built with both calculators, all available features, and `-Os` using
|
|
|
|
|
`clang` and `musl`, the executable is 140.4 kb (140,386 bytes) on `x86_64`. That
|
|
|
|
|
isn't much for what is contained in the binary, but if necessary, it can be
|
|
|
|
|
reduced.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The single largest user of space is the `bc` calculator. If just `dc` is needed,
|
|
|
|
|
the size can be reduced to 107.6 kb (107,584 bytes).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The next largest user of space is history support. If that is not needed, size
|
|
|
|
|
can be reduced (for a build with both calculators) to 119.9 kb (119,866 bytes).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are several reasons that history is a bigger user of space than `dc`
|
|
|
|
|
itself:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* `dc`'s lexer and parser are *tiny* compared to `bc`'s because `dc` code is
|
|
|
|
|
almost already in the form that it is executed in, while `bc` has to not only
|
|
|
|
|
adjust the form to be executable, it has to parse functions, loops, `if`
|
|
|
|
|
statements, and other extra features.
|
|
|
|
|
* `dc` does not have much extra code in the interpreter.
|
|
|
|
|
* History has a lot of const data for supporting `UTF-8` terminals.
|
|
|
|
|
* History pulls in a bunch of more code from the `libc`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The next biggest user is extra math support. Without it, the size is reduced to
|
|
|
|
|
124.0 kb (123,986 bytes) with history and 107.6 kb (107,560 bytes) without
|
|
|
|
|
history.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The reasons why extra math support is bigger than `dc`, besides the fact that
|
|
|
|
|
`dc` is small already, are:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Extra math supports adds an extra math library that takes several kilobytes of
|
|
|
|
|
constant data space.
|
|
|
|
|
* Extra math support includes support for a pseudo-random number generator,
|
|
|
|
|
including the code to convert a series of pseudo-random numbers into a number
|
|
|
|
|
of arbitrary size.
|
|
|
|
|
* Extra math support adds several operators.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The next biggest user is `dc`, so if just `bc` is needed, the size can be
|
|
|
|
|
reduced to 128.1 kb (128,096 bytes) with history and extra math support, 107.6
|
|
|
|
|
kb (107,576 bytes) without history and with extra math support, and 95.3 kb
|
|
|
|
|
(95,272 bytes) without history and without extra math support.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*Note*: all of these binary sizes were compiled using `musl` `1.2.0` as the
|
|
|
|
|
`libc`, making a fully static executable, with `clang` `9.0.1` (well,
|
|
|
|
|
`musl-clang` using `clang` `9.0.1`) as the compiler and using `-Os`
|
|
|
|
|
optimizations. These builds were done on an `x86_64` machine running Gentoo
|
|
|
|
|
Linux.

|
|
|
|
|

```
|
|
|
|
|
make test
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|

```
|
|
|

make test_bc
|
|
|

```
|
|
|

make test_dc
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This `bc`, if built, assumes a working, GNU-compatible `bc`, installed on the
|
|
|
|
|
system and in the `PATH`, to generate some tests, unless the `-G` flag or
|
|
|
|
|
`--disable-generated-tests` option is given to `configure.sh`, as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
./configure.sh --disable-generated-tests
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
|
make test
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This `dc` also assumes a working, GNU-compatible `dc`, installed on the system
|
|
|
|
|
and in the `PATH`, to generate some tests, unless one of the above options is
|
|
|
|
|
given to `configure.sh`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To generate test coverage, pass the `-c` flag or the `--coverage` option to
|
|
|
|
|
`configure.sh` as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
./configure.sh -c
|
|
|
|
|
./configure.sh --coverage
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Both commands are equivalent.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
***WARNING***: Both `bc` and `dc` must be built for test coverage. Otherwise,
|
|
|
|
|
`configure.sh` will give an error.
