Hi Jeff,
May I apply the patch below please ?
It adds a support for a new define which can be enabled in
libc/include/sys/config.h. This define suppresses support for the
on_exit() function, which can significantly reduce the size of the
_reent structure. This is important for targets with a small
address space (eg the xstormy16). The patch also uses the GCC
poison pragma to stop user applications from using on_exit() if this
define has been enabled.
I would think a better tack would be a macro that changes the _fns from being:
void (*_fns[_ATEXIT_SIZE])(void); /* the table itself */
to:
void **_fns; /* the table itself */
and then allocate it if the user ever needed on_exit functionality. Obviously
you would have to check whether it was allocated or not.
