This commit improves the handling of the "atomic stuff" in the libdrm
package. libdrm can either use the atomic intrinsics (4 byte variant)
when available, or otherwise can use libatomic_ops. Note that the
dependency on atomic operations is not from libdrm itself, but only
from some specific DRM drivers only.
Amongst other things, it fixes the build of the libdrm package on
SPARCv8, therefore fixing:
http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/74dd29b5ea146c320fde80a87a2fc910de9b7f60/
This commit does a number of changes that are all related to each
other:
- Removes the dependency of the Intel DRM driver on
libatomic_ops. The Intel DRM driver builds perfectly fine without
libatomic_ops, as long as 4-byte variant __sync operations are
available, which is always the case on x86 and x86_84 (which are
the only architectures on which the Intel DRM driver can be
enabled).
- Adds an hidden Config.in boolean option
BR2_PACKAGE_LIBDRM_HAS_ATOMIC that allows DRM driver that need
atomic operation to know whether atomic support is available
(either through intrinsics or through libatomic_ops).
- Adds an hidden BR2_PACKAGE_LIBDRM_ENABLE_ATOMIC Config.in option
that DRM drivers that need atomic operation should select to ensure
that the relevant dependencies are selected. It simply selects
libatomic_ops if 4-byte atomic intrinsics are not available. We
could let each DRM driver do this, but having an intermediate
option avoids a bit of duplication.
- Adds a patch that defines AO_REQUIRE_CAS before including
<atomic_ops.h>. This is needed because libdrm uses the
AO_compare_and_swap_full() which is only provided on all
architectures when AO_REQUIRE_CAS is defined. The exact same fix
was done in the erlang package in commit
4a9df29424.
- Adds the dependency on libatomic_ops when the package is enabled,
and passes the necessary CFLAGS on SPARCv8 to make the thing build
properly. The same CFLAGS are passed in the nginx package and bdwgc
package.
