Update timezone data to 2016b Changes affecting future time stamps New zones Europe/Astrakhan and Europe/Ulyanovsk for Astrakhan and Ulyanovsk Oblasts, Russia, both of which will switch from +03 to +04 on 2016-03-27 at 02:00 local time. They need distinct zones since their post-1970 histories disagree. New zone Asia/Barnaul for Altai Krai and Altai Republic, Russia, which will switch from +06 to +07 on the same date and local time. Also, Asia/Sakhalin moves from +10 to +11 on 2016-03-27 at 02:00. (Thanks to Alexander Krivenyshev for the heads-up, and to Matt Johnson and Stepan Golosunov for followup.) As a trial of a new system that needs less information to be made up, the new zones use numeric time zone abbreviations like "+04" instead of invented abbreviations like "ASTT". Haiti will not observe DST in 2016. (Thanks to Jean Antoine via Steffen Thorsen.) Palestine's spring-forward transition on 2016-03-26 is at 01:00, not 00:00. (Thanks to Hannah Kreitem.) Guess future transitions will be March's last Saturday at 01:00, not March's last Friday at 24:00. Changes affecting past time stamps Europe/Chisinau observed DST during 1990, and switched from +04 to +03 at 1990-05-06 02:00, instead of switching from +03 to +02. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.) 1991 abbreviations in Europe/Samara should be SAMT/SAMST, not KUYT/KUYST. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.) The update produced (apparently benign) warnings from zic as suggested here: http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/tz-announce/2016-March/000036.html Bug: 27656428 Change-Id: I31c7805b6fdb458c3ee9e695b3dff7bd003d8cab
The C library. Stuff like fopen(3)
and kill(2)
.
The math library. Traditionally Unix systems kept stuff like sin(3)
and cos(3)
in a separate library to save space in the days before shared libraries.
The dynamic linker interface library. This is actually just a bunch of stubs that the dynamic linker replaces with pointers to its own implementation at runtime. This is where stuff like dlopen(3)
lives.
The C++ ABI support functions. The C++ compiler doesn't know how to implement thread-safe static initialization and the like, so it just calls functions that are supplied by the system. Stuff like __cxa_guard_acquire
and __cxa_pure_virtual
live here.
The dynamic linker. When you run a dynamically-linked executable, its ELF file has a DT_INTERP
entry that says “use the following program to start me”. On Android, that‘s either linker
or linker64
(depending on whether it’s a 32-bit or 64-bit executable). It's responsible for loading the ELF executable into memory and resolving references to symbols (so that when your code tries to jump to fopen(3)
, say, it lands in the right place).
The tests/
directory contains unit tests. Roughly arranged as one file per publicly-exported header file.
The benchmarks/
directory contains benchmarks.
Adding a system call usually involves:
As mentioned above, this is currently a two-step process:
This is fully automated (and these days handled by the libcore team, because they own icu, and that needs to be updated in sync with bionic):
If you make a change that is likely to have a wide effect on the tree (such as a libc header change), you should run make checkbuild
. A regular make
will not build the entire tree; just the minimum number of projects that are required for the device. Tests, additional developer tools, and various other modules will not be built. Note that make checkbuild
will not be complete either, as make tests
covers a few additional modules, but generally speaking make checkbuild
is enough.
The tests are all built from the tests/ directory.
$ mma $ adb remount $ adb sync $ adb shell /data/nativetest/bionic-unit-tests/bionic-unit-tests32 $ adb shell \ /data/nativetest/bionic-unit-tests-static/bionic-unit-tests-static32 # Only for 64-bit targets $ adb shell /data/nativetest64/bionic-unit-tests/bionic-unit-tests64 $ adb shell \ /data/nativetest64/bionic-unit-tests-static/bionic-unit-tests-static64
The host tests require that you have lunch
ed either an x86 or x86_64 target.
$ mma $ mm bionic-unit-tests-run-on-host32 $ mm bionic-unit-tests-run-on-host64 # For 64-bit *targets* only.
As a way to check that our tests do in fact test the correct behavior (and not just the behavior we think is correct), it is possible to run the tests against the host's glibc. The executables are already in your path.
$ mma $ bionic-unit-tests-glibc32 $ bionic-unit-tests-glibc64
For either host or target coverage, you must first:
$ export NATIVE_COVERAGE=true
bionic_coverage=true
in libc/Android.mk
and libm/Android.mk
.$ mma $ adb sync $ adb shell \ GCOV_PREFIX=/data/local/tmp/gcov \ GCOV_PREFIX_STRIP=`echo $ANDROID_BUILD_TOP | grep -o / | wc -l` \ /data/nativetest/bionic-unit-tests/bionic-unit-tests32 $ acov
acov
will pull all coverage information from the device, push it to the right directories, run lcov
, and open the coverage report in your browser.
First, build and run the host tests as usual (see above).
$ croot $ lcov -c -d $ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT -o coverage.info $ genhtml -o covreport coverage.info # or lcov --list coverage.info
The coverage report is now available at covreport/index.html
.
Bionic's test runner will run each test in its own process by default to prevent tests failures from impacting other tests. This also has the added benefit of running them in parallel, so they are much faster.
However, this also makes it difficult to run the tests under GDB. To prevent each test from being forked, run the tests with the flag --no-isolate
.
This probably belongs in the NDK documentation rather than here, but these are the known ABI bugs in the 32-bit ABI:
time_t
is 32-bit. http://b/5819737. In the 64-bit ABI, time_t is 64-bit.
off_t
is 32-bit. There is off64_t
, and in newer releases there is almost-complete support for _FILE_OFFSET_BITS
. Unfortunately our stdio implementation uses 32-bit offsets and -- worse -- function pointers to functions that use 32-bit offsets, so there's no good way to implement the last few pieces http://b/24807045. In the 64-bit ABI, off_t is off64_t.
sigset_t
is too small on ARM and x86 (but correct on MIPS), so support for real-time signals is broken. http://b/5828899 In the 64-bit ABI, sigset_t
is the correct size for every architecture.
