May be needed + in some configurations now.) + + * gc_priv.h: + - Define MIN_WORDS. All allocation requests are rounded + up to at least this size. Removes a subtle assumption that + Java objects have a 2 word header. + + * gcconfig.h: + - Adjust Linux/IA64 configuration for non-ancient kernels. + (Necessary fix for IA64.) + + * linux_threads.c: + - Fix syntax error in currently unused code. Will be needed + for Linux/PA-RISC. + + * malloc.c: + - Handle MIN_WORDS. + + * misc.c: + - Handle MIN_WORDS. + - Change stack cleaning code to typically clear about one tenth + the memory it used to in the threads configuration. Occasionally + still clear more. (This is really a fix for a long-standing + and fairly significant performance bug with threads.) + + * os_dep.c: + - Fix the code for finding the beginning of the data segment under + Linux. I believe this is necessary for some IA64 Linux + distributions. It will also helo other platforms, though those + may additionally require a gcconfig.h adjustment. (This basically + works around the absence of a data_start or __data_start + definition in glibc.) + + * test.c: + - Handle rounding due to MIN_WORDS. + 2001-03-22 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com> * Makefile.am (gctest_LDFLAGS): Use -shared-libgcc. |
