These are mostly copied from riscv64. _Addr and _Reg had to become int
to match compiler-controlled parts of the ABI (result type of sizeof,
etc.). There is no kernel stat struct; the userspace stat matches
glibc in the sizes and offsets of all fields (including glibc's
__dev_t __pad1). The jump buffer is 12 words larger to account for 12
saved double-precision floats; additionally it should be 64-bit
aligned to save doubles.
The syscall list was significantly revised by deleting all time32 and
pre-statx syscalls, and renaming several syscalls that have different
names depending on __BITS_PER_LONG, notably mmap2 and _llseek.
futex was added as an alias to futex_time64 since it is widely used by
software which does not pass time arguments.
With the exception of a fenv implementation, the port is fully featured.
The port has been tested in or1ksim, the golden reference functional
simulator for OpenRISC 1000.
It passes all libc-test tests (except the math tests that
requires a fenv implementation).
The port assumes an or1k implementation that has support for
atomic instructions (l.lwa/l.swa).
Although it passes all the libc-test tests, the port is still
in an experimental state, and has yet experienced very little
'real-world' use.
this port assumes eabi calling conventions, eabi linux syscall
convention, and presence of the kernel helpers at 0xffff0f?0 needed
for threads support. otherwise it makes very few assumptions, and the
code should work even on armv4 without thumb support, as well as on
systems with thumb interworking. the bits headers declare this a
little endian system, but as far as i can tell the code should work
equally well on big endian.
some small details are probably broken; so far, testing has been
limited to qemu/aboriginal linux.
