The new .seek assembler pseudo-op advances the location
counter to a fixed offset within a section --- or to a fixed
address, if the section is a .base'd section. It works
somewhat like the GNU assembler's .org pseudo-op, though
with a hopefully less confusing name.
This pseudo-op lets us avoid having to manually compute the
needed boot sector padding in the pc86 start-up code
plat/pc86/boot.s .
Switch from custom assert() to libc assert() in mach/proto/as.
Continue to disable asserts if DEBUG == 0.
This change found a problem in the build system; comm2.y was missing
depedencies on comm0.h and comm1.h. Add the missing dependencies to
the cppfile rule. Allow the dependencies by modifying cppfile in
first/build.lua to act like cfile if t.dir is false.
Now that comm2.y gets rebuilt, I must fix the wrong prototype of
yyparse() in comm1.h.
I got unlucky as induo() in comm5.c was reading beyond the end of the
array. It found an operator "= " ('=' then space) in the garbage, so
it returned a garbage token number, and "VAR = 123" became a syntax
error. Unbreak induo() by terminating the array.
Change "register i;" to "int i;" to so clang stops warning about
implicit int. Use function prototypes so clang stops warning about
implicitly declared functions.
In my OpenBSD/amd64 system, the code becomes
if (0)
outname.on_valu &= ~(((0xFFFFFFFF)<<32)<<32);
The 0xFFFFFFFF is a 32-bit int, so the left shift by 32 is out of
range and causes the gcc warning.
The intent might be to clear any sign-extended bits, if the assignment
outname.on_valu = valu did sign extension. Old C had no unsigned
long, so .on_valu would have been long. The code is obsolete because
h/out.h now declares .on_valu as uint32_t.
the number of types of relocation possible in the object file. (Now,
hopefully, working.)
Also change the object serialiser/deserialiser to never try to read or
write raw structures; it's way safer this way and we don't need the
performance boost any more.
