[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: nasm-2.10.05-1
The cygwin package of nasm has been update to version 2.10.05. This is the latest stable upstream version available from http://nasm.us/ The Netwide Assembler, NASM, is an 80x86 and x86-64 assembler designed for portability and modularity. The full upstream changelog since the last Cygwin package (2.08.02) is long; below are excerpts for the two major upstream releases. The full history is available at http://nasm.us/doc/nasmdocc.html Version 2.10: - When optimization is enabled, mov r64,imm now optimizes to the shortest form possible between: mov r32,imm32 ; 5 bytes mov r64,imm32 ; 7 bytes mov r64,imm64 ; 10 bytes - Add support for the Intel AVX2 instruction set. - Add support for Bit Manipulation Instructions 1 and 2. - Add support for Intel Transactional Synchronization Extensions (TSX). - Add support for x32 ELF (32-bit ELF with the CPU in 64-bit mode.) - Add support for bigendian UTF-16 and UTF-32. Version 2.09: - Fixed assignment the magnitude of %rep counter. It is limited to 62 bits now. - Fixed NULL dereference if argument of %strlen resolves to whitespace. For example if nonexistent macro parameter is used. - %ifenv, %elifenv, %ifnenv, and %elifnenv directives introduced. - Fixed NULL dereference if environment variable is missed. - Updates of new AVX v7 Intel instructions. - PUSH imm32 is now officially documented. - Fix for encoding the LFS, LGS and LSS in 64-bit mode. - Fixes for compatibility with OpenWatcom compiler and DOS 8.3 file format limitation. - Macros parameters range expansion introduced. - Backward compatibility on expanging of local sigle macros restored. - 8 bit relocations for elf and bin output formats are introduced. - Short intersegment jumps are permitted now. - An alignment more than 64 bytes are allowed for win32, win64 output formats. - SECTALIGN directive introduced. - nojmp option introduced in smartalign package. - Short aliases win, elf and macho for output formats are introduced. Each stands for win32, elf32 and macho32 accordingly. - Faster handling of missing directives implemented. - Various small improvements in documentation. - No hang anymore if unable to open malloc.log file. - The environments without vsnprintf function are able to build nasm again. - AMD LWP instructions updated. - Tighten EA checks. We warn a user if there overflow in EA addressing. - Make -Ox the default optimization level. For the legacy behavior, specify -O0 explicitly. - Environment variables read with %! or tested with %ifenv can now contain non-identifier characters if surrounded by quotes. - Add a new standard macro package %use fp for floating-point convenience macros. -- Dean Scarff *** CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO *** If you want to unsubscribe from the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the List-Unsubscribe: tag in the email header of this message.

Re: nasm -- what format does cygwin use?
This is a *very* late reply to: http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2009-12/msg00208.html I am trying to compile a program that use nasm and it thought that gnuwin32 was a format for nasm (don't know if it used to be, but it's not now). Does cygwin use standard linux format now 'elf', or is it using win32?..or something else)? It looks like the list settled on the right answer, but I feel like a naughty maintainer having missed the thread (also because I should have added some backward-compatibility defaulting for -f gnuwin32). The -f gnuwin32 format was a hack which I removed once it was no longer needed, see here: http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2007-11/msg00587.html Use -f win32 if you want to link the object file using the cygwin binutils, but note that the default object extension is .obj. The cofftest.asm and cofftest.c that come with the nasm test suite) can confirm that -f win32 works with the latest cygwin binutils and gcc. However, as of the nasm-2.08.02-1 release (RFU'd but not uploaded/announced yet) I've re-added -f gnuwin32, but only as an alias for -f win32 with .o extensions; hopefully this will avoid the confusion above from occuring again, and keep people's build scripts working too. -- Dean http://scarff.id.au/ -- software bugs and workarounds -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

Re: Cygport bug: autoconf 2.6x check fails 2.61.
I don't see why both of those regexes wouldn't successfully match '2.61' already. Your patch looks like it's trying to make the regex accept 2.6 with no second digit after the decimal place as well. Can you perhaps clarify? Oh dear. Apparently MIME inline attachments + gmane + ezmlm isn't a good combination. There was an explanation ;) In short, the grep + cut doesn't quite work like it used to because there is a trailing period. The case glob (which is not a POSIX regex under the Bourne shell, right?) matches x2.61. as well as x2.60, which is what we want. Either way the whole thing isn't a robust check, autoconf's manual doesn't make any claims to insert that particular string. -- Dean -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

Can you find a better solution? PTC.
% wtf PTC
Gee... I don't know what PTC means...
Test by feature rather than by version: I guess I'm getting a little
inspiration from the subject material here (autoconf). Also there's
no need to be so sensitive to context and formatting changes (which a
grep | cut certainly is). I've got two mutually exclusive patches,
you can choose one or none as you see fit; I haven't tested them
against all the obvious Autoconf versions either (2.59, 2.60 and 2.61
would seem prudent). It's all a bit of an overkill though: I'm sure
my last patch will be fine for the forseeable future (and I feel bad
for dropping noisy patches on the cygwin list).
The first figures the help output is relatively stable, and
essentially all you want to know is whether configure supports a
docdir switch, so test for that. Of course, this will have problems
if someone clever decides to include --docdir= in their help output,
and somehow doesn't support it as an option (although all the autoconf
options are currently hardcoded in autoconf's general.m4).
Furthermore if the list of installation directory variables supported
by Autoconf keeps growing, they might just drop support for listing them
in the help in the one-line-per-option format.

The second approach is to actually *try* to use docdir. If configure
doesn't support it then it will fail quickly. If configure does
support it but fails for other reasons, it will write to config.log.
This relies on the config.log file and behaviour. It's also not very
extensible when there's more future-autoconf-features you want to take
advantage of. You can deal with that in the future, no? It's not the
most elegant piece of code either.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: nasm-2.00-1
Version 2.00-1 of nasm has been uploaded, and should be available on the cygwin mirrors in the near future. Please find it under the Devel category in cygwin's setup utility. This release constitutes a major revision of the upstream stable sources. From http://nasm.sf.net/ : After 7 months of intense development, the NASM team brings you NASM 2.0!!! This version of NASM supercedes version 0.98.39 (and Apple's 0.98.40) and introduces full 64-bit (x86-64/x64/AMD64/Intel 64) architecture and object file support. We have also addressed quite a few bugs and feature requests along the way. Special note: I have removed support for the GNUWin32 COFF format (-f gnuwin32 option). This format was introduced to work around historical disagreements between MinGW interpretation, Microsoft implementation, and the COFF/PE specifications of the VirtualSize field for .bss section headers. These have been (reportedly) resolved in binutils since 2003. Please use -f win32 now in contexts where -f gnuwin32 was used. If you get link errors, such as ld: PE operations on non PE file, when linking nasm objects produced with nasm -f win32, and you are using the latest version of Cygwin's binutils, please send a report to the cygwin mailing list.

Yep, the problem seemed to be that all the 3.2.3 stuff was in /usr/local
thus overriding the 3.3.1 files which use just the /usr prefix. Whether
this was a failure of the 3.2.3 uninstall script or not I'm not sure, I
had to remove all the old files manually (obviously uninstalling and
reinstalling 3.3.1 wouldn't help, as this wasn't the problem).
Problem solved, anyway.

Hi,
I'm getting link errors with libstdc++. At first I thought I must have
been missing a package, but AFAICS I have all the relevant ones. I
assumed libstdc++ would be linked in by default from a g++ command line.
I couldn't see anything similar mentioned in the archives. I assume
c++ wouldn't be broken by default for the whole distribution like this,
what have I forgotten (and out of interest, why does the 3.3.1 version
of gcc and g++ use the 3.2.3 specs)?

Whether this was a failure of the 3.2.3 uninstall script or not I'm not sure, I had to remove all the old files manually (obviously uninstalling and reinstalling 3.3.1 wouldn't help, as this wasn't the problem).

g++ link errors
Hi,
I'm getting link errors with libstdc++. At first I thought I must have
been missing a package, but AFAICS I have all the relevant ones. I
assumed libstdc++ would be linked in by default from a g++ command line.
I couldn't see anything similar mentioned in the archives. I assume
c++ wouldn't be broken by default for the whole distribution like this,
what have I forgotten (and out of interest, why does the 3.3.1 version
of gcc and g++ use the 3.2.3 specs)?

Re: [RFC] Globally creating a user and a group root
Corinna Vinschen wrote: The remaining problem is the special handling of root. I guess it's best to create the /etc/group entry already in mkgroup. For mkpasswd it might be best, to add a special handling like this: If a Windows user root exists, give it the uid 0. any chance you can poke the base-passwd script soon, to check for a user and a group with SID S-1-1-0 in the existing /etc/passwd and /etc/group files and remove them silently? Also it would be good if the script adds the following entry to /etc/group, if possible as the first line: root:S-1-5-32-544:0: I currently have an entry in /etc/passwd: root:unused_by_nt/2000/xp:500:513:U-SCARFF-BOX\root,S-1-5-21-1606980848-1563985344-1060284298-500:/home/root:/bin/bash This is a side-effect of using mkpasswd with the Administrator user renamed to root on XP. For me (and others like me who renamed the Administrator user) will this cause problems? Forgive me if I've overlooked where this point was addressed before in the thread, I only followed it loosely. -- Dean

Packages for upload: nasm (1.3.22 and 1.5.2)
New packages have been built against both cygwin 1.3.22 and 1.5.2 (latest non-snapshot available 30 Aug 2003), for the upstream release of nasm 0.98.37. The 1.5.2-built package is flagged as test; quick tests suggest it's compatible. Other changes: the postscript version of the documentation is no longer used, seeming as it's the same as the info and html outputs, and it just adds to the package size.

There's plenty of good editors (especially the ones intended for development) for windows that can handle LF as EOL. ConTEXT is quite nice if you go for 'free'/shareware. I use LF for all my sources, whether they're unix or not.

Or.. get the source package, find the icon file and replace it with the one you want before recompiling - no binary hacking required. Actually, as this is open source software and thus you have (access to) the source, the usual way of customizing your software is exactly like this: Use The Source, Duke!. HTH rlc FWIW: the icon files are in /usr/src/rxvt/W11/wrap when the rxvt source pack is installed. The README for Cygwin tells you how to build it all.(I must say, though, that I've never actually tried building rxvt myself..) This is what I've been doing ;) But it gets annoying having to rebuild the rxvt source - especially when for some reason it doesnt build OOT(cygwin-patched)B - or patch the binary myself whenever there's a new release, especially when its a patch that most users would enjoy (although it may bloat the binary by an extra 1k - so use upx :P).

Re: [nasm packaging review] was Re: Pending packages status
From: Dario Alcocer alcocer at helixdigital dot com Date: Mon, 30 Dec 2002 18:35:28 -0800 What problems exactly are you having with Ghostscript? I'll assume that you're referring to the Cygwin version of Ghostscript. They may not be a problem with ghostscript at all, contrary to what I said before. It may actually be a problem with the .ps that was generated. I have no experience with either format, but here's the error message from ps2pdf: $ ps2pdf -dOptimize=true nasmdoc.ps nasmdoc.pdf Error: /undefined in setpagesize Operand stack: Execution stack: %interp_exit .runexec2 --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval- - 2 %stopped_push --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- fa lse 1 %stopped_push 1 3 %oparray_pop 1 3 %oparray_pop .runexec 2 --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- 2 %stopped_push -- nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- Dictionary stack: --dict:1085/1123(ro)(G)-- --dict:0/20(G)-- --dict:111/200(L)-- Current allocation mode is local Current file position is 52386 GNU Ghostscript 7.05: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 The .ps was generated from a perl script that exited without error. The build works on debian with perl 5.8.0 and GNU Ghostscript 7.05. I'm using those same versions of each on cywin. I'm sorry for assuming this was a problem with ghostscript if it isn't. If you or anyone knows the source of this problem, I'd be happy to know. Otherwise, I'm quite happy to leave the pdf out - it would double the size of the binary package, and its not a format that is particularly useful (imho) in cygwin when there's html as well.

The only thing that seems to be missing is the documentation. The documentation provided by the binary package includes only the man pages for nasm and ndisasm. However, nasm has a very complete documentation with a lot of examples and available in several differen output formats (html, info, pdf). So, I think including one the .info files in the binary package along with the man pages is a good idea and will make the package complete.

An alternative would be to have a separate nasm-doc package with all the documentation, which would keep the smaller binary download for people that do not need the docs. I agree that both the man and info docs should be available in the binary distribution. As for the additional (pdf, ps, html) documentation, I'm open to suggestion. The extra docs are certainly very comprehensive, although I don't often consult them. I also notice that the nasm project provides a separate nasm-0.98.35-xdoc package. In any case, I'll repackage the existing package to make everything and make install_everything, I'll post an update soon.

[adding docs to nasm] unfulfilled build deps for pdf
As per your suggestion to add the extra docs to the nasm package, I have found that nasm requires AFPL ghostscript to build the pdf. This package is not currently part of cygwin (although there is an old contrib that never made it here: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2002-10/msg00185.html ). So my question is, is there a policy regarding relying on non-(official)cygwin packages for builds? I can easily just add the pdf built on linux to the binary package, but this would mean that the source package will be incapable (under cygwin) of producing the binary. The other option as Joshua suggested is to provide a separate docs package (which doesnt need a corresponding source).
