was compiled with -O) by the precision bug in the i386 version of
gcc (assignments and casts don't clip the precision). E.g.,
rintf(12.3456789) was 12.125.
Avoid the same bug in rint(). It was only broken for the unusual
case when the i387 precision is 64 bits. FreeBSD defaults to 53
bit precision to avoid problems like this, but the standard math
emulator always uses 64 bit precision.
in a bunch of man pages.
Use the correct .Bx (BSD UNIX) or .At (AT&T UNIX) macros
instead of explicitly specifying the version in the text
in a bunch of man pages.
note that at_shutdown has a new parameter to indicate When
during a shutdown the callout should be made. also
add a RB_POWEROFF flag to reboot "howto" parameter..
tells the reboot code in our at_shutdown module to turn off the UPS
and kill the power. bound to be useful eventually on laptops
Here are the diffs for libc_r to get it one step closer to P1003.1c
These make most of the thread/mutex/condvar structures opaque to the
user. There are three functions which have been renamed with _np
suffixes because they are extensions to P1003.1c (I did them for JAVA,
which needs to suspend/resume threads and also start threads suspended).
I've created a new header (pthread_np.h) for the non-POSIX stuff.
The egrep tags stuff in /usr/src/lib/libc_r/Makefile that I uncommented
doesn't work. I think its best to delete it. I don't think libc_r needs
tags anyway, 'cause most of the source is in libc which does have tags.
also:
Here's the first batch of man pages for the thread functions.
The diff to /usr/src/lib/libc_r/Makefile removes some stuff that was
inherited from /usr/src/lib/libc/Makefile that should only be done with
libc.
also:
I should have sent this diff with the pthread(3) man page.
It allows people to type
make -DWANT_LIBC_R world
to get libc_r built with the rest of the world. I put this in the
pthread(3) man page. The default is still not to build libc_r.
also:
The diff attached adds a pthread(3) man page to /usr/src/share/man/man3.
The idea is that without libc_r installed, this man page will give people
enough info to know that they have to build libc_r.
I was perplexed when an example I'd written to show the values for these
variables changing as an xterm window was resized didn't work, and looking
into it I see that size tracking for LINES and COLS seems to be one SVR4
enhancement which didn't come across with libncurses.
