Raspberry pi isn't what I want.
I want to be able to compile / do serious development and being able
to run Linux would also help. I'm not comfortable moving outside of
Intel architecture and I want the horsepower I can get out of a Haswell
or Broadwell.
Thanks,

So, the history is more than this.
Larry Wall's Configure (capital C) for rn and Perl was the first step
at a shell script to examine system features and generate a config.h.
It was inspirational for autoconf, but autoconf doesn't use any of
its code, as far as I know.
Autoconf was designed to

Russ Cox is maintaining the draw package.

Nick Owens did a Plan 9 port (based on a slightly older version).

I really like rsc's libtask and have managed to hide it in a few products.
As for your question: What architecture? Any runtime available?
Personally, I've used libtask on ARM/x86 under Linux/OSX... hardly bare
metal though.
The current implementation depends mostly on the ucontext API +
Russ implemented his own setmcontext and getmcontext functions
to work on systems that doesn't properly support ucontext.
So I don't think you really need ucontext support in your libc.
By the way, I maintain an updated version of libtask:

David, it's good to hear you're keeping libtask updated... I'll check it

Your use is different and simple enough that I would suggest doing this from
scratch in pure C. Or start from an existing setjmp based implementation. It
should really be a couple pages of code at most.

I have been very very impressed with the performance of the pi2,
really quite a usable machine - though it is still a terminal.

Sounds like all you want are coroutines (with create, destroy switch-to
calls) and wait queues (with create, destroy, signal wait calls). With these
you can build channels easily. With a bit more work you can even implement
pre-emption but then you need mutexes. Setjmp/longjmp is fine (that
One other thing that I've looked at but never used is Adam Dunkels'
protothreads (http://dunkels.com/adam/pt/) although you'd still need to
roll your own channel library.

I don't intend to engage in yet another 9fans flame war. I do not
argue with your analysis or proposal. However, it's based on considerable
hindsight and experience that wasn't available when autotools started.
Additionally, systems in that time period were changing continually.
So it was not

Removing bloat unfortunately isn't going to happen in the mainline

Arnold,
I am not sure who I am addressing either :-) Just wanted to know where
this gawk port was heading.
The thing is that I use a slightly modified version of Plan 9's awk.
In this version, I added all the math functions from C and replaced
the random number generator by the Mersenne twister.
Anyone stripped rsc's libtask for use on a bare metal embedded system,
I'am about to do it but if somone already has I could steal it.

For portability changes, I think not much is needed.

Configure predates Linux.

I looked at proto, they are just state machines pretending to be threads (imho)

The system I am trying to add libtask to has no runtime other than libc.
Corrently it is an even based system that uses a min main loop and

Hence my desire to add co-routines + channels (i.e. exactly what libtask is)
