erlang: use erlang's native atomic ops

2016-06-11T13:58:38+00:00

Now that we're using Erlang 18, the preferred atomic ops implementation for Erlang is its own built-in implementation, so use it instead of libatomic_ops. BR2_PACKAGE_ERLANG_ARCH_SUPPORTS is added now that BR2_PACKAGE_LIBATOMIC_OPS_ARCH_SUPPORTS can no longer be used for checking whether the package can be built. This fixes autobuilder failures on aarch64 and sparc_v8: http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/0cd/0cd22eb74fa29e5a85bf897762e16ab3daf33962/ http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/688278236e6d5bcd63b7d4413303eb115a38f3a7/ http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/7875a7425bfe1f43d46c9a1db9f96b54f7a99b19/ Signed-off-by: Frank Hunleth Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

package/libatomic_ops: rename libatomic_ops supported arch Kconfig symbol

erlang: Remove BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS dependency

2015-10-21T20:12:05+00:00

Erlang can be built without threads support, by passing an appropriate config option. This commit drops the config dependency on BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS and instead passes --disable-threads if the toolchain doesn't support threads. While here, change the wording of the config comment to "dynamic library" to be consistent with similar comments elsewhere. Signed-off-by: Ezequiel Garcia Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

erlang: fix comment dependencies

2015-01-04T20:28:21+00:00

The comment was missing the dependency on BR2_USE_MMU, and was using 'depends on !BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS && BR2_STATIC_LIBS' while it should in fact be '!BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS || BR2_STATIC_LIBS', since we want show the comment *either* when we don't have threads *or* when we are building a purely static lib system.

package/erlang: fix detection of libatomic_ops

2015-01-04T20:26:07+00:00

For some platforms, hardware-assisted compare-and-swap may not be available, so libatomic_ops will not provide it. However, libatomic_ops can provide a purely software CAS emulation, but must be instructed to do so. erlang just forgot to tell libatomic_ops that it does require CAS. Fix that by defining AO_REQUIRE_CAS before including atmoic_ops.h, like is done in libunwind, as pointed out by Thomas. Also, erlang has a convoluted, mind-alterating set on aclocal.m4 macros, that just forgets to link against -latomic_ops when checking CAS is available, so that even if CAS is available, configure chokes. Since I would like to keep the little sanity I still have, just force linking with -latomic_ops. This is useless when the check is natrally sucessful (i.e. on platforms where CAS is available in HW), but we would eventually link with -latomic_ops there, too; it's just redundant. Overall, just consider that erlang requires libatomic_ops, so forcibly depend on it, it is easier than trying to disable it. We can revisit that whenever someone wants to run erlang on a platform for which there is no libatomic_ops support.

Rename BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to BR2_STATIC_LIBS

2014-12-11T21:48:13+00:00

Since a while, the semantic of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB has been changed from "prefer static libraries when possible" to "use only static libraries". The former semantic didn't make much sense, since the user had absolutely no control/idea of which package would use static libraries, and which packages would not. Therefore, for quite some time, we have been starting to enforce that BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB should really build everything with static libraries. As a consequence, this patch renames BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to BR2_STATIC_LIBS, and adjust the Config.in option accordingly. This also helps preparing the addition of other options to select shared, shared+static or just static. Note that we have verified that this commit can be reproduced by simply doing a global rename of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to BR2_STATIC_LIBS plus adding BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to Config.in.legacy.

package/erlang: disable for static builds

2014-11-22T17:30:34+00:00

erlang wants to build shared libs, always. So, disable erlang when we're building static-only. Fixes: http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/1ce/1ceaa6925d1ded236d01ae9feb31f5f915f6b51a/ Signed-off-by: "Yann E. MORIN" Cc: Frank Hunleth Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard
