Hello all, The OCaml language [1] version 5.0 [2] was released last year, switching to a multicore runtime. The previous version, 4.14, supported Cygwin, MinGW-w64, and MSVC on Windows. The current version now supports Cygwin and MinGW-w64, and we're working towards restoring MSVC support.
The multicore runtime has been written using pthreads, and we're already using winpthreads for the MinGW-w64 port. We're hoping to use winpthreads for the MSVC ports, and I intend to submit patches enabling that. I'm testing my code with MSVC (latest preview, 19.39), MinGW-w64+GCC, MinGW-w64+clang, and clang-cl. I have patches enabling MSVC support, fixing sane warnings raised by the above compilers, fixing little bugs, and improving POSIX compatibility. I've tried to keep them as minimal as possible. This is a first batch of various patches, that I hope won't be too controversial. MSVC doesn't yet build this patch series, but the related patches are small. Let me know if you have any questions, Best regards, Antonin Décimo [1]: https://ocaml.org/ [2]: https://ocaml.org/changelog?t=ocaml Antonin Décimo (18): winpthreads: Ignore MSVC object files winpthreads: Move likely/unlikely to misc.h, noop under MSVC winpthreads: Inline INIT_RWLOCK into its only callsite winpthreads: Format error string with snprintf winpthreads: Use _strdup variant instead of strdup winpthreads: PIMAGE_TLS_CALLBACK returns void, not BOOL winpthreads: Fix TLS thread callback initializers on MSVC x64 winpthreads: Use __assume(0) MSVC builtin for unreachable code winpthreads: Fix printf format specifiers winpthreads: Protect macros with do { ... } while (0) idiom winpthreads: Prevent scoping issues and warnings in cleanup_push/pop winpthreads: Fix include style winpthreads: Small cleanups for clang winpthreads: AC_PROG_RANLIB is obsoleted by LT_INIT winpthreads: Add windres-rc, a wrapper for windres to rc winpthreads: Fix __WINPTHREAD_ENABLE_WRAP_API typo winpthreads: Don't assign within a conditional expression winpthreads: Fix strict prototypes warnings .gitignore | 2 + .../winpthreads/build-aux/windres-rc | 158 ++++++++++++++++++ mingw-w64-libraries/winpthreads/configure | 117 ++----------- mingw-w64-libraries/winpthreads/configure.ac | 9 +- .../winpthreads/include/pthread.h | 25 ++- mingw-w64-libraries/winpthreads/src/barrier.c | 6 +- mingw-w64-libraries/winpthreads/src/barrier.h | 9 +- mingw-w64-libraries/winpthreads/src/clock.c | 4 +- mingw-w64-libraries/winpthreads/src/cond.c | 12 +- mingw-w64-libraries/winpthreads/src/cond.h | 10 +- mingw-w64-libraries/winpthreads/src/misc.c | 2 +- mingw-w64-libraries/winpthreads/src/misc.h | 38 +++-- mingw-w64-libraries/winpthreads/src/mutex.c | 7 +- mingw-w64-libraries/winpthreads/src/rwlock.c | 12 +- mingw-w64-libraries/winpthreads/src/rwlock.h | 3 - mingw-w64-libraries/winpthreads/src/sem.c | 6 +- .../winpthreads/src/spinlock.c | 3 - mingw-w64-libraries/winpthreads/src/thread.c | 69 ++++---- mingw-w64-libraries/winpthreads/src/thread.h | 2 +- .../winpthreads/src/version.rc | 18 +- 20 files changed, 306 insertions(+), 206 deletions(-) create mode 100644 mingw-w64-libraries/winpthreads/build-aux/windres-rc -- 2.43.0 _______________________________________________ Mingw-w64-public mailing list Mingw-w64-public@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mingw-w64-public
