defines _POSIX_CPUTIME but doesn't support the clock_* functions. I don't test the value of _POSIX_CPUTIME because the spec merely says that if it is defined, the CPU-specific timers are available, whereas it says that _POSIX_TIMERS must be defined and defined to a value greater than zero. However, this may not work, as the POSIX spec clearly states: "If the symbolic constant _POSIX_CPUTIME is defined, then the symbolic constant _POSIX_TIMERS shall also be defined by the implementation to have the value 200112L." If this doesn't work, I'll add more hacks for Darwin. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@171565 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
Design Of lib/System
====================
The software in this directory is designed to completely shield LLVM from any
and all operating system specific functionality. It is not intended to be a
complete operating system wrapper (such as ACE), but only to provide the
functionality necessary to support LLVM.
The software located here, of necessity, has very specific and stringent design
rules. Violation of these rules means that cracks in the shield could form and
the primary goal of the library is defeated. By consistently using this library,
LLVM becomes more easily ported to new platforms since the only thing requiring
porting is this library.
Complete documentation for the library can be found in the file:
llvm/docs/SystemLibrary.html
or at this URL:
http://llvm.org/docs/SystemLibrary.html
While we recommend that you read the more detailed documentation, for the
impatient, here's a high level summary of the library's requirements.
1. No system header files are to be exposed through the interface.
2. Std C++ and Std C header files are okay to be exposed through the interface.
3. No exposed system-specific functions.
4. No exposed system-specific data.
5. Data in lib/System classes must use only simple C++ intrinsic types.
6. Errors are handled by returning "true" and setting an optional std::string
7. Library must not throw any exceptions, period.
8. Interface functions must not have throw() specifications.
9. No duplicate function impementations are permitted within an operating
system class.
To accomplish these requirements, the library has numerous design criteria that
must be satisfied. Here's a high level summary of the library's design criteria:
1. No unused functionality (only what LLVM needs)
2. High-Level Interfaces
3. Use Opaque Classes
4. Common Implementations
5. Multiple Implementations
6. Minimize Memory Allocation
7. No Virtual Methods
