- renamed remaining os_ stuff in os/unix/ and os/bs2000/ to ap_ variants - merged the ap_dso_xxxx non-HPUX-specific #defines and the HPUX-specific functions - moved the FreeBSD-underscore hack from mod_so (where it was badly placed because it is a low-level stuff) to the dlsym() call in os/unix/os.c (where is is placed better because _there_ is the os-specific stuff) - some minor cleanups to os.h - additions to compat.h git-svn-id: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/branches/1.3.x@80886 13f79535-47bb-0310-9956-ffa450edef68

today figured out that their proprietary shl_xxx system calls are very close to the dlopen-style interface. And because our os/unix/ stuff already provides an abstraction layer we now can provide DSO support for HP/UX by emulating the dlopen-style interface while not changing anything inside mod_so ;-) git-svn-id: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/branches/1.3.x@80884 13f79535-47bb-0310-9956-ffa450edef68

DSO support for SVR4-based Unix platforms ========================================= What it provides: ----------------- This patch is another milestone in the DSO support for Apache 1.3. It adds Dynamic Shared Object (DSO) support for mostly all SVR4-based Unix platforms (We cannot test all of them of course, but Martin has at least tested it under SINIX-SVR4). Why is this patch a little bit larger then one would expect? Mostly because this support goes hand in hand by providing a special variant of the Apache core program. Read on if you are interested. Background: ----------- Usually the DSO mechanism was designed to be used for loading library code dynamically into the address space of a running program. Here the library code is a stand-alone program which has no knowledge of the program it is loaded into. Technically speaking this means that no symbols of the loading program are references in the DSO. The resolving is done only the other way: Symbols of the library are resolved for the program (either automatically by ld.so when one uses DSO-based libraries or manually via dlopen()/dlsym() when using DSO-based program extensions. Now when you use the latter situation the DSO usually contains a program extension. This extension usually uses symbols from the program it extends: from the API. Same here for Apache: The core provides API symbols and the extensions are Apache modules which use those symbols. Now comes the problem: when you load a DSO via dlopen() the loader has to resolve the symbols in this DSO. Symbols from other DSO-based libraries can be resolved the same way ld.so does. No problem. But to be able to resolve the API symbols the loader must be able to access them. Technically speaking one would say the API symbols have to be "exported". This is not the same as just being a "global" symbol, although a lot of platforms treat this equally. Actually it is this way: When the linker creates an executable program it does not treats global symbols as exported symbols. But because this is needed for extending the program via DSO, modern linkers usually either provide a flag (-rdynamic under Linux, etc.) or are smart enough to do the exportation automatically (Solaris, FreeBSD, etc.) But as life goes, there are linkers out there who neither provide a flag to force exportation nor are smart enough to do it automatically. FOR INSTANCE THE LINKER UNDER SVR4! That's the problem this patch has to solve. Solution: --------- We have to make sure the global symbols from the Apache core program are forced to be exported by the linker. The obvious way is this: Create a dummy.so with dummy references for _ALL_ global symbols and link httpd against this DSO. This works but has some drawbacks: You have to make sure the dummy.c source is always in sync with the list of global symbols (ARGL!) and you have to make sure the Unix loader can find "dummy.so" when starting httpd (Hmmmm). So Martin and I've searched for a better solution. And because I'm a Perl hacker I immediately tried to figure out why Perl is able to use the DSO mechanism without problems under SVR4 while Apache has such problems. The answer: Perl 5 uses a nifty trick. As we already know when program code stays in a DSO the global symbols have to be exportable. So, when we put the complete Apache core (the stuff httpd is usually build from) into a DSO we are finished. Because this is both portable and causes no sideeffects like having to sync a dummy.c source, etc. While the theory is simple, the correct solution was not such simple. Martin and I needed some iterations to provide this patch because we wanted to make it perfect and clean. That's why it's a little bit longer.... The Patch: ---------- The patch does the following: 1. It introduces a new Rule: SHARED_CORE 2. It makes the main() function from http_main.c configurable and sets it to ap_main if SHARED_CORE is active. 3. It adds two additional stand-alone main() functions to http_main.c which are triggered by SHARED_CORE_BOOTSTRAP and SHARED_CORE_TIESTATIC. 4. It splits the TARGET in Makefile.tmpl into subtargets. One for the standard way of creating just httpd from the .a files. And one for creating the alternative tuple: httpd/libhttpd.ep/libhttpd.so. The first one is SHARED_CORE_BOOTSTRAP+http_main.c, the second one is SHARED_CORE_TIESTATIC+httpd_main.c and the third one are the .a files which usually form the httpd. 5. The DSO section in Configure was extended to force SHARED_CORE under those platforms like SVR4 which essentially require SHARED_CORE to provide the SHARED_MODULE stuff. Bingo! 6. Some minor tweaks to APACI etc. to automatically install the SHARED_CORE generated stuff. Of course the complete stuff is disabled per default, so you don't see anything from it if SHARED_CORE is not activated. But just for fun you even can use it under platforms who do not require it. But currently you gain nothing here. I've tested this stuff under FreeBSD, Linux and Solaris to make sure none of the existing stuff gets broken. Martin has tested it under various SVR4 platforms to make sure it really solves our DSO problem for restrictive platforms like SVR4. The chance is high that this way we even can provide DSO support under AIX in the future. git-svn-id: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/branches/1.3.x@80857 13f79535-47bb-0310-9956-ffa450edef68
