and add a new helper target and script, "show-buildlink3", that outputs
a listing of the buildlink3.mk files included as well as the depth at
which they are included.
For example, "make show-buildlink3" in fonts/Xft2 displays:
zlib
fontconfig
iconv
zlib
freetype2
expat
freetype2
Xrender
renderproto
* Correct bug in configure script: --enable-portable-binary option was ignored!
* Threads compilation fix on AIX: prefer xlc_r to cc_r, and don't use
either if we are using gcc.
* Updated FAQ to note that Apple gcc 4.0.1 on MacOS/Intel is broken,
and suggest a workaround. configure script now detects Core/Duo arch.
* Use -maltivec when checking for altivec.h.
* Performance improvements for Intel EMT64.
* Performance improvements for large-size transforms with SIMD.
* Cycle counter support for Intel icc and Visual C++ on x86-64.
* In fftw-wisdom tool, replaced obsolete --impatient with --measure.
* Fixed compilation failure with AIX/xlc; thanks to Joseph Thomas.
* Windows DLL support for Fortran API (added missing __declspec(dllexport)).
* SSE/SSE2 code works properly (i.e. disables itself) on older 386 and 486
CPUs lacking a CPUID instruction; thanks to Eric Korpela.
RECOMMENDED is removed. It becomes ABI_DEPENDS.
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED.foo becomes BUILDLINK_ABI_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.foo becomes BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS does not change.
IGNORE_RECOMMENDED (which defaulted to "no") becomes USE_ABI_DEPENDS
which defaults to "yes".
Added to obsolete.mk checking for IGNORE_RECOMMENDED.
I did not manually go through and fix any aesthetic tab/spacing issues.
I have tested the above patch on DragonFly building and packaging
subversion and pkglint and their many dependencies.
I have also tested USE_ABI_DEPENDS=no on my NetBSD workstation (where I
have used IGNORE_RECOMMENDED for a long time). I have been an active user
of IGNORE_RECOMMENDED since it was available.
As suggested, I removed the documentation sentences suggesting bumping for
"security" issues.
As discussed on tech-pkg.
I will commit to revbump, pkglint, pkg_install, createbuildlink separately.
Note that if you use wip, it will fail! I will commit to pkgsrc-wip
later (within day).
* Faster FFTW_ESTIMATE planner.
* New (faster) algorithm for REDFT00/RODFT00 (type-I DCT/DST) of odd size.
* "4-step" algorithm for faster FFTs of very large sizes (> 2^18).
* Faster in-place real-data DFTs (for R2HC and HC2R r2r formats).
* Faster in-place non-square transpositions (FFTW uses these internally
for in-place FFTs, and you can also perform them explicitly using
the guru interface).
* Faster prime-size DFTs: implemented Bluestein's algorithm, as well
as a zero-padded Rader variant to limit recursive use of Rader's algorithm.
* SIMD support for split complex arrays.
* Much faster Altivec/VMX performance.
* New fftw_set_timelimit function to specify a (rough) upper bound to the
planning time (does not affect ESTIMATE mode).
* Removed --enable-3dnow support; use --enable-k7 instead.
* FMA (fused multiply-add) version is now included in "standard" FFTW,
and is enabled with --enable-fma (the default on PowerPC and Itanium).
* Automatic detection of native architecture flag for gcc. New
configure options: --enable-portable-binary and --with-gcc-arch=<arch>,
for people distributing compiled binaries of FFTW (see manual).
* Automatic detection of Altivec under Linux with gcc 3.4 (so that
same binary should work on both Altivec and non-Altivec PowerPCs).
* Compiler-specific tweaks/flags/workarounds for gcc 3.4, xlc, HP/UX,
Solaris/Intel.
* Various documentation clarifications.
* 64-bit clean. (Fixes a bug affecting the split guru planner on
64-bit machines, reported by David Necas.)
* Fixed Debian bug no.259612: inadvertent use of SSE instructions on
non-SSE machines (causing a crash) for --enable-sse binaries.
* Fixed bug that caused HC2R transforms to destroy the input in
certain cases, even if the user specified FFTW_PRESERVE_INPUT.
* Fixed bug where wisdom would be lost under rare circumstances,
causing excessive planning time.
* FAQ notes bug in gcc-3.4.[1-3] that causes FFTW to crash with SSE/SSE2.
* Fixed accidentally exported symbol that prohibited simultaneous
linking to double/single multithreaded FFTW (thanks to Alessio Massaro).
* Support Win32 threads under MinGW (thanks to Alessio Massaro).
framework. The list of changes include:
* Modify compiler.mk so that "c" is always prepended to USE_LANGUAGES,
so we no longer need to say it in package Makefiles. Packages
should now append to USE_LANGUAGES instead of setting it.
* Create mk/compiler/f2c.mk which implements another pseudo-compiler
"f2c" that may be used with any C compiler backend, e.g.
PKGSRC_COMPILER= f2c ccache gcc
* Teach the various "real" compiler files, e.g., sunpro.mk, mipspro.mk,
etc., to use f2c if the native Fortran compiler isn't present.
Packages that use Fortran should now simply include the line:
USE_LANGUAGES+= fortran
in the package Makefile.
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
All library names listed by *.la files no longer need to be listed
in the PLIST, e.g., instead of:
lib/libfoo.a
lib/libfoo.la
lib/libfoo.so
lib/libfoo.so.0
lib/libfoo.so.0.1
one simply needs:
lib/libfoo.la
and bsd.pkg.mk will automatically ensure that the additional library
names are listed in the installed package +CONTENTS file.
Also make LIBTOOLIZE_PLIST default to "yes".
* Some speed improvements in SIMD code.
* --without-cycle-counter option is removed. If no cycle counter is found,
then the estimator is always used. A --with-slow-timer option is provided
to force the use of lower-resolution timers.
* Added missing static keyword that prevented simultaneous linkage
of different-precision versions; thanks to Rasmus Larson for the bug report.
* Corrected accidental omission of f77_wisdom.f file; thanks to Alan Watson.
* Removed non-portable use of 'tempfile' in fftw-wisdom-to-conf script;
thanks to Nicolas Decoster for the patch.
* Added 'make smallcheck' target in tests/ directory, at the request of
James Treacy.
Major goals of this release:
* Speed: often 20% or more faster than FFTW 2.x, even without SIMD (see below).
* Complete rewrite, to make it easier to add new algorithms and transforms.
* New API, to support more general semantics.
Other enhancements:
* SIMD acceleration on supporting CPUs (SSE, SSE2, 3DNow!, and AltiVec).
(With special thanks to Franz Franchetti for many experimental prototypes
and to Stefan Kral for the vectorizing generator from fftwgel.)
* True in-place 1d transforms of large sizes (as well as compressed
twiddle tables for additional memory/cache savings).
* More arbitrary placement of real & imaginary data, e.g. including
interleaved (as in FFTW 2.x) as well as separate real/imag arrays.
* Efficient prime-size transforms of real data.
* Multidimensional transforms can operate on a subset of a larger matrix,
and/or transform selected dimensions of a multidimensional array.
* By popular demand, simultaneous linking to double precision (fftw),
single precision (fftwf), and long-double precision (fftwl) versions
of FFTW is now supported.
* Cycle counters (on all modern CPUs) are exploited to speed planning.
* Efficient transforms of real even/odd arrays, a.k.a. discrete
cosine/sine transforms (types I-IV). (Currently work via pre/post
processing of real transforms, ala FFTPACK, so are not optimal.)
* DHTs (Discrete Hartley Transforms), again via post-processing
of real transforms (and thus suboptimal, for now).
* Support for linking to just those parts of FFTW that you need,
greatly reducing the size of statically linked programs when
only a limited set of transform sizes/types are required.
* Canonical global wisdom file (/etc/fftw/wisdom) on Unix, along
with a command-line tool (fftw-wisdom) to generate/update it.
* Fortran API can be used with both g77 and non-g77 compilers
simultaneously.
* Multi-threaded version has optional OpenMP support.
* Authors' good looks have greatly improved with age.

further information.
out of date - it was based on a.out OBJECT_FMT, and added entries in the
generated PLISTs to reflect the symlinks that ELF packages uses. It also
tried to be clever, and removed and recreated any symbolic links that were
created, which has resulted in some fun, especially with packages which
use dlopen(3) to load modules. Some recent changes to our ld.so to bring
it more into line with other Operating Systems also exposed some cracks.
+ Modify bsd.pkg.mk and its shared object handling, so that PLISTs now contain
the ELF symlinks.
+ Don't mess about with file system entries when handling shared objects in
bsd.pkg.mk, since it's likely that libtool and the BSD *.mk processing will
have got it right, and have a much better idea than we do.
+ Modify PLISTs to contain "ELF symlinks"
+ On a.out platforms, delete any "ELF symlinks" from the generated PLISTs
+ On ELF platforms, no extra processing needs to be done in bsd.pkg.mk
+ Modify print-PLIST target in bsd.pkg.mk to add dummy symlink entries on
a.out platforms
+ Update the documentation in Packages.txt
With many thanks to Thomas Klausner for keeping me honest with this.
