5# SYNOPSIS

7# AX_SYS_WEAK_ALIAS
8#
9# DESCRIPTION
10#
11# Determines whether weak aliases are supported on the system, and if so,
12# what scheme is used to declare them. Also checks to see if aliases can
13# cross object file boundaries, as some systems don't permit them to.
14#
15# Most systems permit something called a "weak alias" or "weak symbol."
16# These aliases permit a library to provide a stub form of a routine
17# defined in another library, thus allowing the first library to operate
18# even if the other library is not linked. This macro will check for
19# support of weak aliases, figure out what schemes are available, and
20# determine some characteristics of the weak alias support -- primarily,
21# whether a weak alias declared in one object file may be referenced from
22# another object file.
23#
24# There are four known schemes of declaring weak symbols; each scheme is
0437e105 25# checked in turn, and the first one found is preferred. Note that only one
327c4cdf
DV
26# of the mentioned preprocessor macros will be defined!
27#
28# 1. Function attributes
29#
30# This scheme was first introduced by the GNU C compiler, and attaches
31# attributes to particular functions. It is among the easiest to use, and
32# so is the first one checked. If this scheme is detected, the
33# preprocessor macro HAVE_SYS_WEAK_ALIAS_ATTRIBUTE will be defined to 1.
34# This scheme is used as in the following code fragment:
35#
36# void __weakf(int c)
37# {
38# /* Function definition... */
39# }
40#
41# void weakf(int c) __attribute__((weak, alias("__weakf")));
42#
43# 2. #pragma weak
44#
45# This scheme is in use by many compilers other than the GNU C compiler.
46# It is also particularly easy to use, and fairly portable -- well, as
47# portable as these things get. If this scheme is detected first, the
48# preprocessor macro HAVE_SYS_WEAK_ALIAS_PRAGMA will be defined to 1. This
49# scheme is used as in the following code fragment:
50#
51# extern void weakf(int c);
52# #pragma weak weakf = __weakf
53# void __weakf(int c)
54# {
55# /* Function definition... */
56# }
57#
58# 3. #pragma _HP_SECONDARY_DEF
59#
60# This scheme appears to be in use by the HP compiler. As it is rather
61# specialized, this is one of the last schemes checked. If it is the first
62# one detected, the preprocessor macro HAVE_SYS_WEAK_ALIAS_HPSECONDARY
63# will be defined to 1. This scheme is used as in the following code
64# fragment:
65#
66# extern void weakf(int c);
67# #pragma _HP_SECONDARY_DEF __weakf weakf
68# void __weakf(int c)
69# {
70# /* Function definition... */
71# }
72#
73# 4. #pragma _CRI duplicate
74#
75# This scheme appears to be in use by the Cray compiler. As it is rather
76# specialized, it too is one of the last schemes checked. If it is the
77# first one detected, the preprocessor macro
78# HAVE_SYS_WEAK_ALIAS_CRIDUPLICATE will be defined to 1. This scheme is
79# used as in the following code fragment:
80#
81# extern void weakf(int c);
82# #pragma _CRI duplicate weakf as __weakf
83# void __weakf(int c)
84# {
85# /* Function definition... */
86# }
87#
88# In addition to the preprocessor macros listed above, if any scheme is
89# found, the preprocessor macro HAVE_SYS_WEAK_ALIAS will also be defined
90# to 1.
91#
92# Once a weak aliasing scheme has been found, a check will be performed to
93# see if weak aliases are honored across object file boundaries. If they
94# are, the HAVE_SYS_WEAK_ALIAS_CROSSFILE preprocessor macro is defined to
95# 1.
96#
97# This Autoconf macro also makes two substitutions. The first, WEAK_ALIAS,
98# contains the name of the scheme found (one of "attribute", "pragma",
99# "hpsecondary", or "criduplicate"), or "no" if no weak aliasing scheme
100# was found. The second, WEAK_ALIAS_CROSSFILE, is set to "yes" or "no"
101# depending on whether or not weak aliases may cross object file
102# boundaries.
