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.

This partially reverts r270170 for lib/csu/i386 while retaining the
change for using bsd.lib.mk.
These FILES groups could go into lib/csu/Makefile.inc but I've kept them
in the Makefiles for clarity.

Off by default, build behaves normally.
WITH_META_MODE we get auto objdir creation, the ability to
start build from anywhere in the tree.
Still need to add real targets under targets/ to build packages.

Preloaded library could have changed the environment, and
unconditional assingment to the environ undoes the customization.
The binaries needs to be recompiled to get the fix.
Move the common code to set up environ and __progname into the helper.
Note that ia64 possibly not fixed, due to it still using old csu.

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.

TOC sections (e.g. GCC), leading to a segmentation fault. Adding -mlongcall

for all function calls, including _fini().

Mark new crt1 with FreeBSD-specific ELF note.
Move some common crt1 code into new MI file ignore_init.c, to reduce
duplication. Also, conservatively adjust nearby sources for style.

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.
