- # SYNOPSIS
- #
- # AX_SYS_WEAK_ALIAS
- #
- # DESCRIPTION
- #
- # Determines whether weak aliases are supported on the system, and if so,
- # what scheme is used to declare them. Also checks to see if aliases can
- # cross object file boundaries, as some systems don't permit them to.
- #
- # Most systems permit something called a "weak alias" or "weak symbol."
- # These aliases permit a library to provide a stub form of a routine
- # defined in another library, thus allowing the first library to operate
- # even if the other library is not linked. This macro will check for
- # support of weak aliases, figure out what schemes are available, and
- # determine some characteristics of the weak alias support -- primarily,
- # whether a weak alias declared in one object file may be referenced from
- # another object file.
- #
- # There are four known schemes of declaring weak symbols; each scheme is
- # checked in turn, and the first one found is prefered. Note that only one
- # of the mentioned preprocessor macros will be defined!
- #
- # 1. Function attributes
- #
- # This scheme was first introduced by the GNU C compiler, and attaches
- # attributes to particular functions. It is among the easiest to use, and
- # so is the first one checked. If this scheme is detected, the
- # preprocessor macro HAVE_SYS_WEAK_ALIAS_ATTRIBUTE will be defined to 1.
- # This scheme is used as in the following code fragment:
- #
- # void __weakf(int c)
- # {
- # /* Function definition... */
- # }
- #
- # void weakf(int c) __attribute__((weak, alias("__weakf")));
- #
- # 2. #pragma weak
- #
- # This scheme is in use by many compilers other than the GNU C compiler.
- # It is also particularly easy to use, and fairly portable -- well, as
- # portable as these things get. If this scheme is detected first, the
- # preprocessor macro HAVE_SYS_WEAK_ALIAS_PRAGMA will be defined to 1. This
- # scheme is used as in the following code fragment:
- #
- # extern void weakf(int c);
- # #pragma weak weakf = __weakf
- # void __weakf(int c)
- # {
- # /* Function definition... */
- # }
- #
- # 3. #pragma _HP_SECONDARY_DEF
- #
- # This scheme appears to be in use by the HP compiler. As it is rather
- # specialized, this is one of the last schemes checked. If it is the first
- # one detected, the preprocessor macro HAVE_SYS_WEAK_ALIAS_HPSECONDARY
- # will be defined to 1. This scheme is used as in the following code
- # fragment:
- #
- # extern void weakf(int c);
- # #pragma _HP_SECONDARY_DEF __weakf weakf
- # void __weakf(int c)
- # {
- # /* Function definition... */
- # }
- #
- # 4. #pragma _CRI duplicate
- #
- # This scheme appears to be in use by the Cray compiler. As it is rather
- # specialized, it too is one of the last schemes checked. If it is the
- # first one detected, the preprocessor macro
- # HAVE_SYS_WEAK_ALIAS_CRIDUPLICATE will be defined to 1. This scheme is
- # used as in the following code fragment:
- #
- # extern void weakf(int c);
- # #pragma _CRI duplicate weakf as __weakf
- # void __weakf(int c)
- # {
- # /* Function definition... */
- # }
- #
- # In addition to the preprocessor macros listed above, if any scheme is
- # found, the preprocessor macro HAVE_SYS_WEAK_ALIAS will also be defined
- # to 1.
- #
- # Once a weak aliasing scheme has been found, a check will be performed to
- # see if weak aliases are honored across object file boundaries. If they
- # are, the HAVE_SYS_WEAK_ALIAS_CROSSFILE preprocessor macro is defined to
- # 1.
- #
- # This Autoconf macro also makes two substitutions. The first, WEAK_ALIAS,
- # contains the name of the scheme found (one of "attribute", "pragma",
- # "hpsecondary", or "criduplicate"), or "no" if no weak aliasing scheme
- # was found. The second, WEAK_ALIAS_CROSSFILE, is set to "yes" or "no"
- # depending on whether or not weak aliases may cross object file
- # boundaries.
