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

  177. (ctor) and global destructor (dtor) support, then answer Y here.
  178. When ctor/dtor support is enabled, binaries linked with uClibc must
  179. also be linked with crtbegin.o and crtend.o which are provided by gcc
  180. (the "*startfile:" and "*endfile:" settings in your gcc specs file
  181. may need to be adjusted to include these files). This support will
  182. also add a small amount of additional size to each binary compiled vs
  183. uClibc. If you will be using uClibc with C++, or if you need the gcc
  184. __attribute__((constructor)) and __attribute__((destructor)) to work,
  185. then you definitely want to answer Y here. If you don't need ctors
  186. or dtors and want your binaries to be as small as possible, then

  192. Propolice stack protection.
  193. More about it on <http://www.research.ibm.com/trl/projects/security/ssp> .
  194. To be able to use it, you'll also need a propolice patched gcc,
  195. supporting the -fstack-protector[-all] options. It is a specially patched
  196. gcc version, were __guard and __stack_smash_handler are removed from libgcc.
  197. Most people will answer N.
  198. config UCLIBC_PROFILING
  199. bool "Support gprof profiling"
  200. default y
  201. help
  202. If you wish to build uClibc with support for application profiling
  203. using the gprof tool, then you should enable this feature. Then in
  204. addition to building uClibc with profiling support, you will also
  205. need to recompile all your shared libraries with the profiling
  206. enabled version of uClibc. To add profiling support to your
  207. applications, you must compile things using the gcc options
  208. "-fprofile-arcs -pg". Then when you run your applications, a
  209. gmon.out file will be generated which can then be analyzed by
  210. 'gprof'.
  211. These exist a number of less invasive alternatives that do not
  212. require your to specially instrument your application, and recompile
  213. and relink everything.
  214. Many people have had good results using the combination of Valgrind
  215. to generate profiling information and KCachegrind for analysis:
  216. http://developer.kde.org/~sewardj/
  217. http://kcachegrind.sourceforge.net/
  218. The OProfile system-wide profiler is another alternative:
  219. http://oprofile.sourceforge.net/
  220. Prospect is another alternative based on OProfile:
  221. http://prospect.sourceforge.net/
  222. And the Linux Trace Toolkit (LTT) is also a fine tool:
  223. http://www.opersys.com/LTT/
  224. If none of these tools do what you need, you can of course enable
  225. this option, rebuild everything, and use 'gprof'. There is both a
  226. size and performance penalty to profiling your applications this way,
  227. so most people should answer N.

  236. If you want to compile uClibc with pthread support, then answer Y.
  237. This will increase the size of uClibc by adding a bunch of locking
  238. to critical data structures, and adding extra code to ensure that
  239. functions are properly reentrant.

  246. Say Y here if you wish to be able to debug applications that use
  247. uClibc's pthreads library. By enabling this option, a library
  248. named libthread_db will be built. This library will be dlopen()'d
  249. by gdb and will allow gdb to debug the threads in your application.
  250. IMPORTANT NOTE! Because gdb must dlopen() the libthread_db library,
  251. you must compile gdb with uClibc in order for pthread debugging to
  252. work properly.
  253. If you are doing development and want to debug applications using
  254. uClibc's pthread library, answer Y. Otherwise, answer N.

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

  268. help
  269. "malloc" use mmap for all allocations and so works very well on MMU-less
  270. systems that do not support the brk() system call. It is pretty smart
  271. about reusing already allocated memory, and minimizing memory wastage.
  272. This is the default for uClinux MMU-less systems.
  273. "malloc-simple" was written from scratch for uClibc, and is the
  274. simplest possible (and therefore smallest) malloc implementation.
  275. This uses only the mmap() system call to allocation memory, and does
  276. not use the brk() system call at all, making it a fine choice for
  277. MMU-less systems with very limited memory. It is rather dumb, and
  278. certainly isn't the fastest. But it is 100% standards compliant,
  279. thread safe, and very small.
  280. "malloc-standard" is derived from the public domain dlmalloc
  281. implementation by Doug Lea. It is quite fast, and is pretty smart
  282. about reusing already allocated memory, and minimizing memory
  283. wastage. This uses brk() for small allocations, while using mmap()
  284. for larger allocations. This is the default malloc implementation

  890. The additional environment variable:
  891. LD_DEBUG_OUTPUT=file
  892. redirects the diagnostics to an output file created using
