qmathe 7e5d437065 Restored r35794 changes (that were removed in r35893) but applied them to the
GNUMakefile rather than the Makefile.

This fixes segfaults in programs compiled with Clang using -fobjc-nonfragile-abi 
on Linux x86-32, for a GNUmakefile-based build with GNUstep Make active.

thebeing a106ba85af * Update Makefile.clang to the present state (and add deprecation notice).
* Store version info for the makefiles in one place (version.make).
* Update Makefile to build assembly correctly with GCC.

thebeing f845df37c1 Add objc/blocks_private.h header to expose some internals of the blocks runtime
that are accessed by libdispatch. Also rename the relevant structs to be
compatible with the BlocksRuntime from compiler-rt.

rfm 2a3a93ec38 Modified to use old style Makefile if GNUstep-make is not available (will not
get used on systems where GNU make is not availble).

theraven db1c9052de Remove the GNUmakefile. It can't be used for bootstrapping and maintaining two parallel build systems is just asking for trouble. 14 years ago

theraven fce7c776b6 Tweak build to only enable optimisation in non-debug builds. 15 years ago
theraven bc87ed22e1 Implemented support for __weak with ARC.
ARC functions are all now exposed in a header, but not yet documented.  See the ARC ABI spec for now:

http://clang.llvm.org/docs/AutomaticReferenceCounting.html#runtime

theraven b5380d50d3 Added support for ARC.
Weak references are still not supported, but code that doesn't use them (i.e. any code that wants to be compatible with OS X 10.6) will work fine.

The current implementation is VERY inefficient and has a large number of missed optimisation opportunities: this is the 'make it right' phase, and should be almost equivalent to explicit retain / release code.

theraven b296b18571 Improvements to GC mode:
- Add objc_gc_collectable_address() to determine whether a pointer is managed
  by the GC

- If LIBOBJC_CANARIES is set (optionally to a random number seed) then store a
  canary value after every allocation returned by
  objc_gc_allocate_collectable() and, when it is finalised, check that the
  canary has not been modified, aborting if it has.  This catches some
  heap-buffer overflows, and currently causes GNUstep to abort.

- If LIBOBJC_LOG_ALLOCATIONS is set to a file name, log all GC-managed
  allocations to that file.  This gives something like malloc_history on OS X.

- objc_memmove_collectable() now guarantees that all copied pointers remain
  visible to the GC at all times (which was the point of the function - the
  original implementation was just a quick stub).

theraven e05c9c2ff5 More GC fixes 15 years ago
theraven fcc47bc7ce Fix building without GC support. Still need to make sure that some of the GC functions always work, since they are expected to be no-ops in non-GC mode. 15 years ago
theraven 929f8f95b4 Improved a few GC functions.
Added objc-auto.h header, providing (documented) public interfaces to this
functionality.
15 years ago
theraven ad16172625 First pass at implementing Apple-compatible GC using Boehm. Still needs some tidying, but the following work:
- __strong pointers, preventing objects from being freed

_ __weak pointers are automatically freed when the last remaining __strong pointer goes away

- objc_gc_{retain,release}_np() functions, which can be used to implement CFRetain() and CFRelease() (adds an reference count - the object will not be collected until after its last retain is gone.

registered with the runtime.
