        * ffi.c: Moved prototypes for ffi_call_?32() to here from

        ffi_mips.h because extended_cif is not defined in ffi_mips.h.

Mon Oct 14 12:42:02 1996  Anthony Green  

        * ffi.c: Interface changes based on feedback from Jim Blandy.

Thu Oct 10 11:22:16 1996  Anthony Green  

        * n32.S, ffi.c: Lots of changes to support passing and

        returning structures with the n32 calling convention.

        * n32.S: Fixed fn pointer bug.

        * ffi.c (ffi_prep_cif_machdep): Fix for o32 structure

        return values.

        (ffi_prep_args): Fixed n32 structure passing when structures

        partially fit in registers.

Wed Oct  9 13:49:25 1996  Anthony Green  

        * objects.mak: Added n32.o.

        * n32.S: Created.

        * ffi.c (ffi_prep_args): Added magic to support proper

        n32 processing.

Tue Oct  8 10:37:35 1996  Anthony Green  

        * ffi.c: Moved ffi_type definitions to types.c.

        (ffi_prep_args): Fixed type promotion bug.

        * o32.S: This code is only built for o32 compiles.

        A lot of the #define cruft has moved to ffi_mips.h.

        * ffi.c (ffi_prep_cif_machdep): Fixed arg flags. Second arg

        is only processed if the first is either a float or double.

Mon Oct  7 15:33:59 1996  Anthony Green  

        * o32.S: Modified to compile under each of o32, n32 and n64.

        * ffi.c (FFI_*_TYPEDEF): Removed redundant ';'

Fri Oct  4 09:53:25 1996  Anthony Green  

        * ffi.c (ffi_call): Removed FFI_ABI arg, and swapped

        remaining args.

Wed Oct  2 17:41:22 1996  Anthony Green  

        * o32.S: Removed crufty definitions.

Wed Oct  2 12:53:42 1996  Anthony Green  

        * ffi.c (ffi_prep_cif): cif->rvalue no longer initialized to NULL.

        (ffi_prep_cif_machdep): Moved all machine independent cif processing

        to src/prep_cif.c. Introduced ffi_prep_cif_machdep. Return types

        of FFI_TYPE_STRUCT are no different than FFI_TYPE_INT.

Tue Oct  1 17:11:02 1996  Anthony Green  

        * ffi.c, o32.S, object.mak: Created

--- libffi/src/sparc ------------------------------------------------------

Tue Feb 24 16:33:18 1998  Anthony Green  

        * ffi.c (ffi_prep_args): Added long double support.

Thu May  8 16:53:58 1997  Anthony Green  

        * objects.mak: Removed.

Thu May  1 16:07:56 1997  Anthony Green  

        * v8.S: Fixed minor portability problem reported by

        Russ McManus .

Tue Nov 26 14:12:43 1996  Anthony Green  

        * v8.S: Used STACKFRAME define elsewhere.

        * ffi.c (ffi_prep_args): Zero out space when USING_PURIFY

        is set.

        (ffi_prep_cif_machdep): Allocate the correct stack frame

        space for functions with < 6 args.

Tue Oct 29 15:08:55 1996  Anthony Green  

        * ffi.c (ffi_prep_args): int z is now size_t z.

Mon Oct 14 13:31:24 1996  Anthony Green  

        * v8.S (ffi_call_V8): Gordon rewrites this again. It looks

        great now.

        * ffi.c (ffi_call): The comment about hijacked registers

        is no longer valid after gordoni hacked v8.S.

        * v8.S (ffi_call_V8): Rewrote with gordoni. Much simpler.

        * v8.S, ffi.c: ffi_call() had changed to accept more than

        two args, so v8.S had to change (because it hijacks incoming

        arg registers).

        * ffi.c: Interface changes based on feedback from Jim Blandy.

Thu Oct 10 17:48:16 1996  Anthony Green  

        * ffi.c, v8.S, objects.mak: Created.
