31 /* GCC doesn't correctly implement the structure and union return
32 conventions of the N32 and N64 ABIs on IRIX 6, as described in the
33 MIPSpro N32 ABI Handbook, ch. 2, Calling Convention Implementations, p.7.
34 The ABI requires that structures (or trailing parts of structures) smaller
35 than 8 bytes (a 64-bit register) are left-justified, whereas GCC
36 right-justifies them.
37
38 While GCC is internally consistent, calling routines compiled with a
39 compiler that does implement the documented ABI (like SGIs MIPSpro C
40 compiler) doesn't work. This is primarily an issue for system libraries
41 like libc. Fortunately, there exist only very few routines that return
42 structures by value, so until the underlying bug is fixed, it is possible
43 to work around it by providing wrappers for the few affected routines.
44
45 These wrappers rely on the fact that e.g. libc contains weak versions of
46 those routines, and the real implementation is provided by _-prefixed
47 variants. So we can provide our own versions, which will only be linked
48 if the application uses any of the affected functions, calling the private
49 variants and then shifting the result as required.
