  145. If you answer Y here, the uClibc native shared library loader will
  146. only load shared libraries, which do not need to modify any non-writable
  147. segments. These libraries haven't set the DT_TEXTREL tag in the dynamic
  148. section (==> objdump). So all your libraries must be compiled with
  149. -fPIC or -fpic, and all assembler function must be written as position
  150. independent code (PIC).

  186. If you wish to support both uClibc and glibc on the same system, it
  187. is necessary to set this to something other than "ld.so" to avoid
  188. conflicts with glibc, which also uses "ld.so". This prevents both
  189. libraries from using the same /etc/ld.so.* files. If you wish to
  190. support both uClibc and glibc on the same system then you should set
  191. this to "ld-uClibc.so".

  199. If you wish to build uClibc with support for global constructor
  200. (ctor) and global destructor (dtor) support, then answer Y here.
  201. When ctor/dtor support is enabled, binaries linked with uClibc must
  202. also be linked with crtbegin.o and crtend.o which are provided by gcc
  203. (the "*startfile:" and "*endfile:" settings in your gcc specs file
  204. may need to be adjusted to include these files). This support will
  205. also add a small amount of additional size to each binary compiled vs
  206. uClibc. If you will be using uClibc with C++, or if you need the gcc
  207. __attribute__((constructor)) and __attribute__((destructor)) to work,
  208. then you definitely want to answer Y here. If you don't need ctors

  229. Say Y here if you wish to be able to debug applications that use
  230. uClibc's pthreads library. By enabling this option, a library
  231. named libthread_db will be built. This library will be dlopen()'d
  232. by gdb and will allow gdb to debug the threads in your application.
  233. IMPORTANT NOTE! Because gdb must dlopen() the libthread_db library,
  234. you must compile gdb with uClibc in order for pthread debugging to
  235. work properly.

  243. (i.e. files greater then 2 GiB) then answer Y. Do not enable this
  244. if you are using an older Linux kernel (2.0.x) that lacks large file
  245. support. Enabling this option will increase the size of uClibc.

  250. help
  251. "malloc" use mmap for all allocations and so works very well on MMU-less
  252. systems that do not support the brk() system call. It is pretty smart
  253. about reusing already allocated memory, and minimizing memory wastage.
  254. This is the default for uClinux MMU-less systems.
  255. "malloc-simple" was written from scratch for uClibc, and is the
  256. simplest possible (and therefore smallest) malloc implementation.
  257. This uses only the mmap() system call to allocation memory, and does
  258. not use the brk() system call at all, making it a fine choice for
  259. MMU-less systems with very limited memory. It is rather dumb, and
  260. certainly isn't the fastest. But it is 100% standards compliant,
  261. thread safe, and very small.
  262. "malloc-standard" is derived from the public domain dlmalloc
  263. implementation by Doug Lea. It is quite fast, and is pretty smart
  264. about reusing already allocated memory, and minimizing memory
  265. wastage. This uses brk() for small allocations, while using mmap()
