Allows the user to reset the prefix character for introducing recipe lines
from the default (tab) to any other single character, and back again.
Also, reworked the manual to consistently use the word "recipe" to describe
the set of commands we use to update a target, instead of the various
phrases used in the past: "commands", "command lines", "command scripts",
etc.

string into the strcache. As a side-effect, many more structure members and
function arguments can/should be declared const.
As mentioned in the changelog, unfortunately measurement shows that this
change does not yet reduce memory. The problem is with secondary expansion:
because of this we store all the prerequisites in the string cache twice.
First we store the prerequisite string after initial expansion but before
secondary expansion, then we store each individual file after secondary
expansion and expand_deps(). I plan to change expand_deps() to be callable
in either context (eval or snap_deps) then have non-second-expansion
targets call expand_deps() during eval, so that we only need to store that
dependency list once.

A few changes from char* to void* where appropriate, and removing of
unnecessary casts.
Much more work on const-ifying the codebase. This round involves some code
changes to make it correct. NOTE!! There will almost certainly be problems
on the non-POSIX ports that will need to be addressed after the const changes
are finished: they will need to be const-ified properly and there may need to
be some changes to allocate memory, etc. as well.
The next (last?) big push for this, still to come, is const-ifying the
filenames in struct file, struct dep, etc. This will allow us to store file
names in the string cache and finally resolve Savannah bug #15182 (make uses
too much memory), among other advantages.

- Add more warnings.
- Rename variables that mask out-scope vars with the same name.
- Remove all casts of return values from xmalloc, xrealloc, and alloca.
- Remove casts of the first argument to xrealloc.
- Convert all bcopy/bzero/bcmp invocations to use memcp/memmove/memset/memcmp.

I decided this feature was too impacting to make the permanent default
behavior. This set of changes makes the default behavior of make the
old behavior (no second expansion). If you want second expansion, you
must define the .SECONDEXPANSION: special target before the first target
that needs it.
This set of changes ONLY fixes explicit and static pattern rules to work
like this. Implicit rules still have second expansion enabled all the
time: I'll work on that next.
Note that there is still a backward-incompatibility: now to get the old
SysV behavior using $$@ etc. in the prerequisites list you need to set
.SECONDEXPANSION: as well.

Taylor. There are two forms of this: first, it was possible to lose
tokens when using -j and -l at the same time, because waiting jobs were
not checked when determining whether any jobs were outstanding. Second,
if you had an exported recursive variable that contained a $(shell ...)
function there is a possibility to lose tokens, since a token was taken
but the child list was not updated until after the shell function was
complete.
To resolve this I introduced a new variable that counted the number of
tokens we have obtained, rather than checking whether there were any
children on the list. I also added some sanity checks to make sure we
weren't writing back too many or not enough tokens. And, the master
make will drain the token pipe before exiting and compare the count of
tokens at the end to what was written there at the beginning.
Also:
* Ensure a bug in the environment (missing "=") doesn't cause make to core.
* Rename the .DEFAULT_TARGET variable to .DEFAULT_GOAL, to match the
terminology in the documentation and other variables like MAKECMDGOALS.
* Add documentation of the .DEFAULT_GOAL special variable.
Still need to document the secondary expansion stuff...

I did this by adding intelligence into the algorithm such that the
second expansion was only actually performed when the prerequisite list
contained at least one "$", so we knew it is actually needed.
Without this we were using up a LOT more memory, since every single
target (even ones never used by make) had their file variables
initialized. This also used a lot more CPU, since we needed to create
and populate a new variable hash table for every target.
There is one issue remaining with this feature: it leaks memory. In
pattern_search() we now initialize the file variables for every pattern
target, which allocates a hash table, etc. However, sometimes we
recursively invoke pattern_search() (for intermediate files) with an
automatic variable (alloca() I believe) as the file. When that function
returns, obviously, the file variable hash memory is lost.

none of these have impacts that are visible to the user (although in
some cases that appears to be nothing more than dumb luck :-/).

reported by Markus Mauhart <qwe123@chello.at>. One was a simple typo; to
fix the other we call patsubst_expand() for all instances of variable
substitution, even when there is no '%'. We used to call subst_expand()
with a special flag set in the latter case, but it didn't work properly
in all situations. Easier to just use patsubst_expand() since that's
what it is.

Also a small patch from Hartmut Becker <Hartmut.Becker@compaq.com> for VMS.

Apply patch #1022: fix a memory corruption on very long target-specific
variable definition lines.
|
|
Implement a fix for bug # 2169: too many OSs, even major OSs like Solaris,
don't properly implement SA_RESTART: important system calls like stat() can
still fail when SA_RESTART is set. So, forget the BROKEN_RESTART config
check and get rid of atomic_stat() and atomic_readdir(), and implement
permanent wrappers for EINTR checking on various system calls (stat(),
fstat(), opendir(), and readdir() so far).

enable the automake ansi2knr capability.
Right now this doesn't quite build using a K&R compiler because of a
problem with the loadavg test program, but the rest of the code works. I'm
asking the automake list about this problem.

Implemented enhancement #1391: allow "export" in target-specific
variable definitions.
Change the Info name of the "Automatic" node to "Automatic Variables".
Add text clarifying the scope of automatic variables to that section.
