Asm files for OpenSSL depends on the version of assembler.
We provide two sets of asm files, one is asm_latest(avx2 and addx
supported) and the other asm_obsolute(without avx1/2 and addx)
The asm_latest needs the version of gas >= 2.23, llvm >= 3.3
or ml64 >= 12 as defined in
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/OpenSSL_1_0_2-stable/crypto/sha/asm/sha512-x86_64.pl#L112-L129
, otherwise asm_obsolute are used.
We take MSVS_VERSION in gyp as a version check of assembler on
Windows because the path to ml64.exe was set after configure in
vcbuild.bat and executing ml64.exe was failed in configure.

Snapshots speed up start-up by a few milliseconds but are potentially
dangerous because of the fixed hash seed that is used for strings and
dictionaries, making collision denial-of-service attacks possible.
Release builds on iojs.org have snapshots disabled but source builds
did not, until now.
The risk for individual source builds is low; the binary gets a random
32 bits hash seed that should be hard to guess by an external attacker.
It's when binaries are distributed by, for example, a distro vendor
that the fixed hash seed becomes a vulnerability, because then it's
possible to target a large group of people at once.
People that really need the faster start-up time can use the new
--with-snapshot configure flag.

If icu data is missing print a warning unless either --download=all or
--download=icu is set. If set then automatically download, verify (MD5)
and unpack the ICU data if not already available.
There's a "list" of URLs being used, but right now only the first is
picked up. The logic works something like this:
* If there is no directory deps/icu,
* If no zip file (currently icu4c-54_1-src.zip),
* Download zip file (icu-project.org -> sf.net)
* Verify the MD5 sum of the zipfile
* If bad, print error and exit
* Unpack the zipfile into deps/icu
* If deps/icu now exists, use it, else fail with help text
Add the configuration option "--with-icu-source=..."
Usage:
* --with-icu-source=/path/to/my/other/icu
* --with-icu-source=/path/to/icu54.zip
* --with-icu-source=/path/to/icu54.tgz
* --with-icu-source=http://example.com/icu54.tar.bz2
Add the configuration option "--with-icu-locals=...". Allows choosing
which locales are used in the "small-icu" case.
Example:

The two main goals of this change are:
- To make it easier to build the Intl option using ICU (particularly,
using a newer ICU than v8/Chromium's version)
- To enable a much smaller ICU build with only English support The goal
here is to get node.js binaries built this way by default so that the
Intl API can be used. Additional data can be added at execution time
(see Readme and wiki)
More details are at https://github.com/joyent/node/pull/7719
In particular, this change adds the "--with-intl=" configure option to
provide more ways of building "Intl":
- "full-icu" picks up an ICU from deps/icu
- "small-icu" is similar, but builds only English
- "system-icu" uses pkg-config to find an installed ICU
- "none" does nothing (no Intl)
For Windows builds, the "full-icu" or "small-icu" options are added to
vcbuild.bat.
Note that the existing "--with-icu-path" option is not removed from
configure, but may not be used alongside the new option.
Wiki changes have already been made on
https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Installation
and a new page created at
https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Intl
(marked as provisional until this change lands.)
Summary of changes:
* README.md : doc updates
* .gitignore : added "deps/icu" as this is the location where ICU is
unpacked to.
* Makefile : added the tools/icu/* files to cpplint, but excluded a
problematic file.
* configure : added the "--with-intl" option mentioned above.
Calculate at config time the list of ICU source files to use and data
packaging options.
* node.gyp : add the new files src/node_i18n.cc/.h as well as ICU
linkage.
* src/node.cc : add call into
node::i18n::InitializeICUDirectory(icu_data_dir) as well as new
--icu-data-dir option and NODE_ICU_DATA env variable to configure ICU
data loading. This loading is only relevant in the "small"
configuration.
* src/node_i18n.cc : new source file for the above Initialize..
function, to setup ICU as needed.
* tools/icu : new directory with some tools needed for this build.
* tools/icu/icu-generic.gyp : new .gyp file that builds ICU in some new
ways, both on unix/mac and windows.
* tools/icu/icu-system.gyp : new .gyp file to build node against a
pkg-config detected ICU.
* tools/icu/icu_small.json : new config file for the "English-only" small
build.
* tools/icu/icutrim.py : new tool for trimming down ICU data. Reads the
above .json file.
* tools/icu/iculslocs.cc : new tool for repairing ICU data manifests
after trim operation.
* tools/icu/no-op.cc : dummy file to force .gyp into using a C++ linker.
* vcbuild.bat : added small-icu and full-icu options, to call into

This commit removes the simple/test-event-emitter-memory-leak test for

Profiling suggested that on Linux sometimes over 10% of CPU time was
being spent inside the systemtap probe entry points in the binding
layer, even when the process was not actively being traced with the
`stap` tool.
That's why this commit makes it possible to use the *_ENABLED() macros
and bail out early when we're not being traced, reducing the overhead
of unused probes to (almost) zero.
Said macros were already being generated by `dtrace -h` but were not
usable because they rely on external definitions. To remedy that, we
now generate the accompanying object files with `dtrace -G`.
This commit includes a change to libuv that has been landed upstream in
commit joyent/libuv@3c172ea.
No one in this day and age should be using SSLv2 so disable it by
default. You can re-enable it with `./configure --with-sslv2` but

because we've got quite a lot of them now.
Keep --prefix at the top because that's arguably the one people will be
looking for most.
The previous commit removes our patch that builds V8 at -O2 rather
than -O3 so there is not much point in keeping the configure switch
around.
The reason it did so was to work around an assortment of compiler and
linker bugs. In particular, certain combinations of g++ and binutils
generate bad or no code when -ffunction-sections or -finline-functions
is enabled (which -O3 implicitly does.)
It was quite the problem back in the day because everyone and his dog
built from source. Now that we have prebuilt binaries and packages
available, there is no longer a pressing need to be so accommodating.
If you experience spurious (or possibly not so spurious) segmentation
faults after this commit, you need to upgrade your compiler/linker

Subject: [nodejs] nodejs 0.10.12 and Angstrom issues
This reverts commit acbdabb74b.
Resolves minor discrepancies between android and standard POSIX systems.
In addition, some configure parameters were added, and a helper-script
for android configuration. Ideally, this script should be merged into
the standard configure script.
To build for android, source the android-configure script with an NDK
path:
source ./android-configure ~/android-ndk-r8d
This will create an android standalone toolchain and export the
necessary environment parameters.
After that, build as normal:
make -j8
After the build, you should now have android-compatible NodeJS binaries.
In case of cross-compilation host_arch_cc() function could return
target arch if CC was set to target arch compiler. Host arch
compiler should always be used in this case. This was broken
by commit 707863c.
Consider a user on his Mac, who wants to cross-compile for his Linux ARM device:
./configure --dest-cpu=arm --dest-os=linux
Before this patch, for example, DTrace probes would incorrectly attempt to be
enabled because the configure script is running on a MacOS machine, even though
we're trying to compile a binary for `linux`.
With this patch, the `--dest-os` flag is respected throughout the configure
script, thus leaving DTrace probes disabled in this cross-compiling scenario.
V8 was upgraded to 3.18 in commit 9f68226. The knobs that control the
ARM build have changed in a number of ways. This commit patches the
configure script to reflect that. Should fix the Raspberry Pi build.
Fixes#5329.
When building custom `node` versions (e.g., floating features/fixes from
different versions) it's often useful to specify a custom tag which
easily identifies build when invoking `node -v`.
Introduce a way to specify this tag in `node_version.h` file or by
running `./configure --tag="<tag>"`. Insert it right after the patch
version (and before `-pre`, if build is not a release).
Closes#4452.
DTrace on Linux should not be enabled by default because not all systems will
have the proper headers installed. Only enable when --with-dtrace is passed to
the configure script.
Unconditionally compile V8 with -fno-strict-aliasing on all platforms.
gcc 4.5.2 on sunos generates bad code when -fstrict-aliasing is enabled, which
undoubtedly means that there are more buggy versions of gcc out there.
-fstrict-aliasing does not give a significant performance boost so let's just
disable it.
Fixes#3736.
V8 on ARM requires that armv7 is set. We don't have a good way to detect the
CPU model right now so we pick a default and hope that it works okay for the
majority of people.
Non-scientific sampling - the ARM hardware I have lying around the house -
suggests that ARMv5 and ARMv6 are still most common so armv7=0 it is.
This obviously needs to be revisited sometime in the future.
Compile at -O2 and disable optimizations that trigger gcc bugs.
Some people still reported mksnapshot crashes after commit b40f813 ("build: fix
spurious mksnapshot crashes for good" - so much for that).
Average performance of the -O2 binary is on par with the -O3 binary. Variance
on the http_simple bytes/8 benchmark appears to be slightly greater but small
enough that the possibly of it being noise cannot be excluded.
The new binary very slightly but consistently outperforms the -O3 binary (by
about 0.5%) on the mostly CPU-bound bytes/102400 benchmark. That could be an
artifact of the system I benchmarked it on, a Core 2 Duo with a puny 32 kB of
L1 instruction cache. The smaller binary seems to play nicer with the cache.
A variety of gcc bugs made mksnapshot crash with either a segmentation fault
or a 'pure virtual method callled' run-time error.
After much wailing and gnashing of teeth I managed to deduce that the bugs
show up when:
1. gcc 4.5.2 for i386-pc-solaris2.11 is used and -fstrict-aliasing is
enabled, or
2. gcc version 4.4.6 for x86_64-redhat-linux is used and
-ffunction-sections -finline-functions at -O2 or higher is enabled
Therefore, disable -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections unconditionally
and disable -fstrict-aliasing only on Solaris.
The -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections switches were nonsense anyway
because we don't link with -Wl,--gc-sections.
It has been conclusively demonstrated that the -fstrict-aliasing bugs in gcc's
optimizer are not limited to the 4.5.x releases only.
Fixes#3601 among others.
The heuristic introduced in f78ce08 ("build: handle output of localized gcc or
clang") does not handle "branded" versions of gcc, i.e. a gcc whose output has
been customized by the distro vendor.
Fixes#3601.
Before this commit, we used to scan the output of `$CC -v` for strings like
"gcc version x.y.z".
It was pointed out that this approach fails with localized versions of gcc
because those print (for example) "gcc versión x.y.z".
Use the output of `$CC --version` instead and only look at the first line.
For consistency's sake, rename:
--openssl-use-sys
--openssl-includes
--openssl-libpath
To:
--shared-openssl
--shared-openssl-includes
--shared-openssl-libpath
And add --shared-openssl-libname while we're at it.
The old switches still work but `./configure --help` won't print them.
Fixes#3591.
Make configure start gyp with the same python interpreter that is used to

A compiler bug in older versions of gcc makes it do unsafe optimizations at -O1
and higher. This manifested itself with (at least) gcc 4.5.2 on SmartOS because
it made V8 hang in a busy loop.
See http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45883
On one of my OS X Lion machines, it always reports i386, even though 64-bit
is supported. This lookup better matches how WAF determines the host arch,
which was correctly getting 64-bit even on this screwy machine.
It was decided that the performance benefits that isolates offer (faster spin-up
times for worker processes, faster inter-worker communication, possibly a lower
memory footprint) are not actual bottlenecks for most people and do not outweigh
the potential stability issues and intrusive changes to the code base that
first-class support for isolates requires.
Hence, this commit backs out all isolates-related changes.
Good bye, isolates. We hardly knew ye.
We keep around WAF for node-waf only.
We need great diligence by people over the next couple weeks to work out all
the kinks in the GYP build system. We realize that it is currently several

This is sloppy: after each ObjectWrap allocation the user needs to
call ObjectWrap::InformV8ofAllocation(). In addition each class deriving
from ObjectWrap needs to implement the virtual method size() which should
return the size of the derived class. If I was better at C++ I could
possibly make this less ugly. For now this is how it is.
Memory usage looks much better after this commit.
