But there are some macros that vary: + +`FAILURE_EXIT_CODE' + A C expression for the status code to be returned when the + compiler exits after serious errors. + +`SUCCESS_EXIT_CODE' + A C expression for the status code to be returned when the + compiler exits without serious errors. + +`USE_C_ALLOCA' + Define this macro to indicate that the compiler is running with + the `alloca' implemented in C. This version of `alloca' can be + found in the file `alloca.c'; to use it, you must also alter the + `Makefile' variable `ALLOCA'. + + This macro, unlike most, describes the machine that the compiler + is running on, rather than the one the compiler is compiling for. + Therefore, it should be set in the `xm-MACHINE.h' file rather + than in the `tm-MACHINE.h' file. + + If you do define this macro, you should probably do it as follows: + + #ifndef __GNUC__ + #define USE_C_ALLOCA + #else + #define alloca __builtin_alloca + #endif + + so that when the compiler is compiled with GNU CC it uses the + more efficient built-in `alloca' function. + + In addition, configuration files for system V define `bcopy', +`bzero' and `bcmp' as aliases. Some files define `alloca' as a macro +when compiled with GNU CC, in order to take advantage of the benefit +of GNU CC's built-in `alloca'. + + |
