From c941736c92fa3a319221f65f6755659b2a5e0a20 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joseph Myers Date: Tue, 11 Feb 2014 23:40:07 +0000 Subject: Remove _BSD_SOURCE and _SVID_SOURCE. This is a minimal patch to remove _BSD_SOURCE and _SVID_SOURCE from the documented user API, making them into aliases for _DEFAULT_SOURCE with a #warning given, but keeping most of the features.h logic using those macros and all the exising __USE_* conditionals, on the basis that all the consequent cleanups will go in followup patches. Tested x86_64. * include/features.h: Update comment documenting feature test macros. [_BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE]: Give #warning. Define _DEFAULT_SOURCE. * manual/creature.texi (_BSD_SOURCE): Remove documentation. (_SVID_SOURCE): Likewise. (_DEFAULT_SOURCE): Update description of default features. (Feature Test Macros): Don't mention _SVID_SOURCE in conjunction with _GNU_SOURCE. * manual/filesys.texi (__ftw_func_t): Do not refer to _BSD_SOURCE. (S_ISVTX): Likewise. * manual/math.texi (Mathematical Constants): Likewise. * manual/signal.texi (Interrupted Primitives): Likewise. * manual/startup.texi (putenv): Do not refer to _SVID_SOURCE. * math/test-matherr.c (_SVID_SOURCE): Do not define. * sysvipc/sys/ipc.h [__USE_SVID && !__USE_XOPEN && __GNUC__ >= 2]: Don't refer to _SVID_SOURCE in warning text. --- NEWS | 8 ++++++++ 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+) (limited to 'NEWS') diff --git a/NEWS b/NEWS index 0f4b8d4..2da9754 100644 --- a/NEWS +++ b/NEWS @@ -13,6 +13,14 @@ Version 2.20 * The am33 port, which had not worked for several years, has been removed from ports. + +* The _BSD_SOURCE and _SVID_SOURCE feature test macros are no longer + supported; they now act the same as _DEFAULT_SOURCE (but generate a + warning).
