README 

-*- mode: Outline -*-

This is version 0.92 of the unwind library.  At the moment, only the
IA-64 Linux (IPF Linux) platform is fully supported.  Some very basic
support for x86 exists also.  However, the x86 support is based purely
on the frame-chain and does not use unwind information, so its utility
is limited.

* General Build Instructions

In general, this library can be built and installed with the following
commands:

	$ ./configure
	$ make
	$ make install prefix=PREFIX

where PREFIX is the installation prefix.  By default, a prefix of
/usr/local is used, such that libunwind.a is installed in
/usr/local/lib and unwind.h is installed in /usr/local/include.  For
testing, you may want to use a prefix of /usr/local instead.

* Building with Intel ECC

To build libunwind with the Intel Electron compiler (ECC), it is
recommended to run configure like this:

	$ ./configure CC=ecc CXX=ecc CCAS=gcc

The reason for this is that ECC uses the Intel assembler, which
doesn't grok some of the IA-64 assembly code in the "tests" directory.

For an ECC-built version of libunwind to work properly, you also need
to ensure that /usr/include/asm/fpu.h contains a "long double" member
called "__dummy" in the declaration of "struct ia64_fpreg".  Without
that member, variables of type unw_context_t won't be aligned
properly.

* Regression Testing

After building the library, you can run a set of regression tests with:

	$ make check

Unless you have a very recent library and compiler installed, it is
currently expected to have the following tests fail:

	Gtest-init		(should work with glibc-2.3.1)
	Ltest-init		(should work with glibc-2.3.1)
	test-ptrace		(should work with glibc-2.3.1)
	run-ia64-test-dyn1	(should work with glibc-2.3.1)
