From e2ac49d3d7c6445c07467e2a4d271d5664f83830 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff Johnston Date: Tue, 2 Jul 2013 21:30:57 +0000 Subject: 2013-07-02 Joey Ye Lite exit support. * README: Add information about lite-exit. * acconfig.h (_LITE_EXIT): New macro. * configure.in (enable-lite-exit): New option. (_LITE_EXIT): Define new macro. * configure: Regenerated. * newlib.hin (_LITE_EXIT): New macro. * libc/stdlib/__atexit.c [_LITE_EXIT]: Add dummy explicit reference to __call_exitprocs. * libc/stdlib/cxa_atexit.c [_LITE_EXIT]: Make __register_exitproc a weak reference. * libc/stdlib/exit.c (exit)[_LITE_EXIT]: Remove TWS and weakly reference __call_exitprocs. --- newlib/libc/stdlib/__atexit.c | 36 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 36 insertions(+) (limited to 'newlib/libc/stdlib/__atexit.c') diff --git a/newlib/libc/stdlib/__atexit.c b/newlib/libc/stdlib/__atexit.c index f04f00d8e..d36a1a4e5 100644 --- a/newlib/libc/stdlib/__atexit.c +++ b/newlib/libc/stdlib/__atexit.c @@ -1,5 +1,35 @@ /* * Common routine to implement atexit-like functionality. + * + * This is also the key function to be configured as lite exit, a size-reduced + * implementation of exit that doesn't invoke clean-up functions such as _fini + * or global destructors. + * + * Default (without lite exit) call graph is like: + * _start -> atexit -> __register_exitproc + * _start -> __libc_init_array -> __cxa_atexit -> __register_exitproc + * on_exit -> __register_exitproc + * _start -> exit -> __call_exitprocs + * + * Here an -> means arrow tail invokes arrow head.
