Why? Most trivial point, it shaves around 600 bytes from the dynamic
binaries on amd64. Less trivial, the removed code is no longer part of
the ABI, and we can ship updates to it with libc updates. Right now most
of the csu is linked into the binaries and require us to do somewhat
tricky ABI compat when it needs to change. For instance, the init_array
change would be much simpler and does not require note tagging if we
have init calling code in libc.
This could be improved more, by splitting dynamic and static
initialization. For instance, &_DYNAMIC tests can be removed then.
Such change, nonetheless, would require building libc three times.
I left this for later, after this change stabilizes, if ever.

The ELF notes compiled in C were placed in a section with the wrong type
(SHT_PROGBITS instead of SHT_NOTE). Previously, sed was used on the
generated assembly to rewrite the section type. Instead, write the notes
in assembly which permits setting the correct section type directly.
While here, move inline assembly entry points out of C and into assembly
for aarch64, arm, and riscv.

Summary:
GCC expects to link in a crtsavres.o on powerpc platforms. On
powerpc64 this is an empty file, but on powerpc and powerpcspe this does contain
some save/restore functions, which may not actually be necessary for newer
modern GCC and clang. This appeases the in-tree gcc, though, and is needed in
order to switch to the BSD CRTRBEGIN.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using mis-identified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
On most architectures crt objects are compiled in a multiple-step process
so that sed can be run on the generated assembly. As the final step,
the C compiler generates an object file from the modified assembly output.
Currently this last step uses $CC with only $ACFLAGS. However, for other
uses in the tree, $ACFLAGS is meant to include assembly-specific compiler
flags that are in addition to $CFLAGS (see default .S.o rules
bsd.suffixes.mk). In particular, external toolchains may require
additional flags to select a non-default target which will be present
in CFLAGS but not ACFLAGS. To support this while still mitigating the
issue with CFLAGS described in r234502, include a modified CFLAGS that
excludes "-g" when assembling the modified assembly files.
Note that normally an assembler ($AS) is used to assemble .s flags to
object files (see bsd.suffixes.mk). However, llvm-based toolchains do
not currently have a stand-alone assembler.

The requirement is for a GCC-compatible compiler and not necessarily
GCC itself. However, we currently expect any compiler used for building
the whole of FreeBSD to be GCC-compatible and many things will break if
not; there's no longer a need to have an explicit test for this in csu.

FILES is not used when LIBRARIES_ONLY is set, which is used to build and
install the lib32 sysroot. All of the csu files do quality as "libraries"
for this case so just undefine LIBRARIES_ONLY.
This is still better than the previous realinstall handling as it does
not hook into META_MODE properly.

way: first they are compiled to assembly, then some sed'ing is done on
the assembly, and lastly the assembly is compiled to an object file.
This last step is done using ${CC}, and not ${AS}, because when the
compiler is clang, it outputs directives that are too advanced for our
old gas. So we use clang's integrated assembler instead. (When the
compiler is gcc, it just calls gas, and nothing is different, except one
extra fork.)
However, in the .s to .o rules in lib/csu/$ARCH/Makefile, I still passed
CFLAGS to the compiler, instead of ACFLAGS, which are specifically for
compiling .s files.
In case you are using '-g' for debug info anywhere in your CFLAGS, it
causes the .s files to already contain debug information in the assembly
itself. In the next step, the .s files are also compiled using '-g',
and if the compiler is clang, it complains: "error: input can't have
.file dwarf directives when -g is used to generate dwarf debug info for
assembly code".
Fix this by using ${ACFLAGS} for compiling the .s files instead.

generated from lib/csu/common/crtbrand.c (which ultimately ends up in
executables and shared libraries, via crt1.o, gcrt1.o or Scrt1.o).
For all arches except sparc, gcc emits the section directive for the
abitag struct in crtbrand.c with a PROGBITS type. However, newer
versions of binutils (after 2.16.90) require the section to be of NOTE
type, to guarantee that the .note.ABI-tag section correctly ends up in
the first page of the final executable.
Unfortunately, there is no clean way to tell gcc to use another section
type, so crtbrand.c (or the C files that include it) must be compiled in
multiple steps:
- Compile the .c file to a .s file.
- Edit the .s file to change the 'progbits' type to 'note', for the section
directive that defines the .note.ABI-tag section.
- Compile the .s file to an object file.
These steps are done in the invididual Makefiles for each applicable arch.

Get rid of the INTERNALSTATICLIB knob and just use plain INTERNALLIB.
INTERNALLIB now means to build static library only and don't install
anything. Added a NOINSTALLLIB knob for libpam/modules. To not
build any library at all, just do not set LIB.
Also, make an internal _getprogname() that is used only inside
libc. For libc, getprogname(3) is a weak symbol in case a
function of the same name is defined in userland.
