* manual/contrib.texi (Palmer Dabbelt, Arjun Shankar, Florian Weimer): New entries. (Rafal Luzynski, Andreas Schwab): Update.
2017-09-22Remove Banner mechanism.Joseph Myers1-0/+3
This patch removes the Banner mechanism, with the last remaining Banner file replaced by a contrib.texi entry. This accords with the principle that the output of running libc.so.6 is not the place to credit particular contributions (the manual is), and with all other configuration options not mentioned there, it doesn't seem appropriate to focus there on the one question of whether the one remaining piece configured as an add-on was enabled or not. Tested for x86_64. * csu/Makefile (generated): Do not add version-info.h. (before-compile): Likewise. (all-Banner-files): Remove variable. ($(objpfx)version-info.h): Remove rule. * csu/version.c (banner): Do not include "version-info.h". * libidn/Banner: Remove. * manual/contrib.texi (Simon Josefsson): New entry.
2017-09-21Remove non-add-on Banner files.Joseph Myers1-3/+4
Various subdirectories of glibc include Banner files to put some text in the output of executing libc.so.6, under "Available extensions". Some of those subdirectories (e.g. crypt) may originally have been add-ons (and so optional, so a particular glibc build might or might not have included them), but except for libidn they aren't now (or if only included in some builds, in the case of soft-fp, the inclusion depends on the architecture for which glibc is configured rather than having any glibc configuration for which it's an optional feature), and it doesn't seem useful for the libc.so.6 output to call out a few features like that. This patch removes the non-add-on Banner files, updating contrib.texi where they noted contributions not otherwise mentioned there. Tested for x86_64. * crypt/Banner: Remove file. * nptl/Banner: Likewise. * resolv/Banner: Likewise. * soft-fp/Banner: Likewise. * nptl/Makefile ($(objpfx)banner.h): Remove rule. ($(objpfx)version.d): Remove dependency on banner.h. ($(objpfx)version.os): Likewise. * nptl/version.c (banner): Do not include banner.h. * manual/contrib.texi: Update entries for Richard Henderson, Jakub Jelinek and BIND code.

2012-06-04Manual for platform-specific features and new __ppc_get_timebase inline.Tulio Magno Quites Machado Filho1-1/+1
[BZ #13743] A new class of installed headers has been documented for low-level platform-specific functionality. PowerPC added the first instance with a function to provide time base register access (__ppc_get_timebase). This is required for applications that measure time at high frequencies with high precision that can't afford a syscall.
