Erik's TODO list for the 0.9.10, which will hopefully
take place around March 1st.
Erik's current plans for uClibc 0.9.10 (which will hopefull
be released around March 1st):
1) Fix C++ global constructors/destructors
2) Fix uClibc timezone support so date(1) will show a real
timezone, instead of just '???'
3) Group all common include/bits files together to avoid
the current situation where there are many redundnant
files.
4) Add struct _res support to libc/inet/resolv.c. Right now,
struct _res, and res_init do nothing. The other res_*
functions are not yet implemented. So fix that.
5) Rework pwd/grp for standards compliance (and integrate
Jeff Garzik's key-value reading code for pwd/grp, and
perhaps for /etc/hosts and friends as well)
6) Fix the bugs in crypt so it passes conformance tests
7) Rework some?/most?/all? code that fails POSIX conformance
tests
Erik's current plans for uClibc 0.9.11:
1) Better configuration system (CML1 + kbuild + menuconfig)
2) When fixing the config system, ensure that _every_ option
that is enabled or disabled is listed in uClibc_config.h
3) When options are disabled, also disable them in the
include files as well.
4) Reentrancy auditing
5) Make all small objects (>~50 bytes) into either inlines or
into a static library
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Manuel's todo:
Implement wide unformatted i/o. (current project)
Implement wide formatted output (printf).
Update the strto* funcs to my current versions to remove the dependency
on the long long support funcs from libgcc.a.
Update some other stdlib and (possibly) string funcs.
Update the ctype code to my latest stuff... smaller plus supports new isblank()
for locales while still keeping byte table entries.
Reimplement scanf for narrow and wide streams.
Improve customization of the new stdio code.
Reimplement _dtostr to correct its deficiencies and hopefully reduce its size.
Revisit the unified syscall stuff which has been broken for a while now.
Older stuff...
Move the target-specific sysconf.c generator to extra (as it needs to be
run on the target) and fix libc/unistd/Makefile.
Add a usage message to the gcc wrapper.
Make errno and endptr handling the default in the strto* functions and
document how to turn those off to save space.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
ds's list:
Search for string literals that are not in the .rodata section. (Varies
by architecture and gcc version.)
man pages for binaries
add basename() and dirname() for gettext
add obstack stuff for gettext (?)
check compiling without FP support -- are FP instructions still generated?
Needs a uClibc_config.h entry dependent on HAS_FLOATING_POINT.
getaddrinfo()
Why does ld.so search /usr/powerpc-uclibc/lib before LD_LIBRARY_PATH?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Any takers?
*) Fix regex so it isn't so stinking big
*) Fix glob so it isn't so stinking big
*) Add drand48()
*) Add missing syscall() function to allow arbitraty syscalls to be made.
*) Documentation
- List all differences between the feature set of uClibc and glibc.
*) run 'nm -D --size-sort -t d libuClibc-0.9.5.so' and work on the biggest things
(i.e. stuff at the end of the list) to make them smaller.
*) make inb/outb work for all arches. This is complete for i386 and arm.
Other archs like powerpc, still need fixing.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
PORTING
-------
bits/dirent.h currently differs from the glibc version (d_type unsupported)
