</p><div class="section" title="The C++ Interface"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="abi.cxx_interface"/>The C++ Interface</h3></div></div></div><p>
  C++ applications often depend on specific language support
  routines, say for throwing exceptions, or catching exceptions, and
  perhaps also depend on features in the C++ Standard Library.
</p><p>
  The C++ Standard Library has many include files, types defined in
  those include files, specific named functions, and other
  behavior. The text of these behaviors, as written in source include
  files, is called the Application Programing Interface, or API.
</p><p>
  Furthermore, C++ source that is compiled into object files is
  transformed by the compiler: it arranges objects with specific
  alignment and in a particular layout, mangling names according to a
  well-defined algorithm, has specific arrangements for the support of
  virtual functions, etc. These details are defined as the compiler
  Application Binary Interface, or ABI. The GNU C++ compiler uses an
  industry-standard C++ ABI starting with version 3. Details can be
  found in the <a class="link" href="http://www.codesourcery.com/public/cxx-abi/abi.html">ABI
  specification</a>.
</p><p>
 The GNU C++ compiler, g++, has a compiler command line option to
  switch between various different C++ ABIs. This explicit version
  switch is the flag <code class="code">-fabi-version</code>. In addition, some
  g++ command line options may change the ABI as a side-effect of
  use. Such flags include <code class="code">-fpack-struct</code> and
  <code class="code">-fno-exceptions</code>, but include others: see the complete
  list in the GCC manual under the heading <a class="link" href="http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Code-Gen-Options.html#Code%20Gen%20Options">Options
  for Code Generation Conventions</a>.
</p><p>
  The configure options used when building a specific libstdc++
  version may also impact the resulting library ABI. The available
  configure options, and their impact on the library ABI, are
  documented
<a class="link" href="configure.html" title="Configure">here</a>.
</p><p> Putting all of these ideas together results in the C++ Standard
library ABI, which is the compilation of a given library API by a
given compiler ABI. In a nutshell:
</p><p>
  <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">
    library API + compiler ABI = library ABI
  </span>”</span>
</p><p>
 The library ABI is mostly of interest for end-users who have
 unresolved symbols and are linking dynamically to the C++ Standard
 library, and who thus must be careful to compile their application
 with a compiler that is compatible with the available C++ Standard
 library binary. In this case, compatible is defined with the equation
 above: given an application compiled with a given compiler ABI and
 library API, it will work correctly with a Standard C++ Library
 created with the same constraints.
</p><p>
  To use a specific version of the C++ ABI, one must use a
  corresponding GNU C++ toolchain (i.e., g++ and libstdc++) that
  implements the C++ ABI in question.
</p></div><div class="section" title="Versioning"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="abi.versioning"/>Versioning</h3></div></div></div><p> The C++ interface has evolved throughout the history of the GNU
C++ toolchain. With each release, various details have been changed so
as to give distinct versions to the C++ interface.
</p><div class="section" title="Goals"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a id="abi.versioning.goals"/>Goals</h4></div></div></div><p>Extending existing, stable ABIs. Versioning gives subsequent
releases of library binaries the ability to add new symbols and add
functionality, all the while retaining compatibility with the previous
releases in the series. Thus, program binaries linked with the initial
release of a library binary will still run correctly if the library
binary is replaced by carefully-managed subsequent library
binaries. This is called forward compatibility.
</p><p>
The reverse (backwards compatibility) is not true. It is not possible
to take program binaries linked with the latest version of a library
binary in a release series (with additional symbols added), substitute
in the initial release of the library binary, and remain link
compatible.
</p><p>Allows multiple, incompatible ABIs to coexist at the same time.

 How can this complexity be managed? What does C++ versioning mean?
  Because library and compiler changes often make binaries compiled
  with one version of the GNU tools incompatible with binaries
  compiled with other (either newer or older) versions of the same GNU
  tools, specific techniques are used to make managing this complexity
  easier.
</p><p>
  The following techniques are used:

      Minimum environment that supports a versioned ABI: A supported
      dynamic linker, a GNU linker of sufficient vintage to understand
      demangled C++ name globbing (ld) or the Sun linker, a shared
      executable compiled
      with g++, and shared libraries (libgcc_s, libstdc++) compiled by
      a compiler (g++) with a compatible ABI. Phew.
    </p><p>
      On top of all that, an additional constraint: libstdc++ did not
      attempt to version symbols (or age gracefully, really) until
      version 3.1.0.
    </p><p>
      Most modern GNU/Linux and BSD versions, particularly ones using
      GCC 3.1 and later, will meet the
      requirements above, as does Solaris 2.5 and up.
    </p></div><div class="section" title="Configuring"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a id="abi.versioning.config"/>Configuring</h4></div></div></div><p>
      It turns out that most of the configure options that change
      default behavior will impact the mangled names of exported
      symbols, and thus impact versioning and compatibility.
    </p><p>
      For more information on configure options, including ABI
      impacts, see:
      <a class="link" href="configure.html" title="Configure">here</a>
    </p><p>
      There is one flag that explicitly deals with symbol versioning:
      --enable-symvers.
    </p><p>
      In particular, libstdc++-v3/acinclude.m4 has a macro called
      GLIBCXX_ENABLE_SYMVERS that defaults to yes (or the argument
      passed in via --enable-symvers=foo). At that point, the macro
      attempts to make sure that all the requirement for symbol
      versioning are in place. For more information, please consult
      acinclude.m4.

      When the GNU C++ library is being built with symbol versioning
      on, you should see the following at configure time for
      libstdc++:
    </p><pre class="screen">
<code class="computeroutput">
  checking versioning on shared library symbols... gnu
</code>
</pre><p>
  or another of the supported styles.
  If you don't see this line in the configure output, or if this line
  appears but the last word is 'no', then you are out of luck.
</p><p>
  If the compiler is pre-installed, a quick way to test is to compile
  the following (or any) simple C++ file and link it to the shared
  libstdc++ library:
</p><pre class="programlisting">
#include &lt;iostream&gt;
 
int main()
{ std::cout &lt;&lt; "hello" &lt;&lt; std::endl; return 0; }
 
%g++ hello.cc -o hello.out
 
%ldd hello.out
        libstdc++.so.5 =&gt; /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 (0x00764000)
        libm.so.6 =&gt; /lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0x004a8000)
        libgcc_s.so.1 =&gt; /mnt/hd/bld/gcc/gcc/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x40016000)
        libc.so.6 =&gt; /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x0036d000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 =&gt; /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00355000)
 
%nm hello.out
</pre><p>
If you see symbols in the resulting output with "GLIBCXX_3" as part
of the name, then the executable is versioned. Here's an example:
</p><p>
   <code class="code">U _ZNSt8ios_base4InitC1Ev@@GLIBCXX_3.4</code>
</p><p>
On Solaris 2, you can use <code class="code">pvs -r</code> instead:
</p><pre class="programlisting">
%g++ hello.cc -o hello.out
 
%pvs -r hello.out
        libstdc++.so.6 (GLIBCXX_3.4, GLIBCXX_3.4.12);
        libgcc_s.so.1 (GCC_3.0);
        libc.so.1 (SUNWprivate_1.1, SYSVABI_1.3);
</pre><p>
<code class="code">ldd -v</code> works too, but is very verbose.

      Testing for GNU C++ ABI changes is composed of two distinct
      areas: testing the C++ compiler (g++) for compiler changes, and
      testing the C++ library (libstdc++) for library changes.
    </p><p>
      Testing the C++ compiler ABI can be done various ways.
    </p><p>
      One.  Intel ABI checker.
    </p><p>
Two.
The second is yet unreleased, but has been announced on the gcc
mailing list. It is yet unspecified if these tools will be freely
available, and able to be included in a GNU project. Please contact
Mark Mitchell (mark@codesourcery.com) for more details, and current
status.
</p><p>
Three.
Involves using the vlad.consistency test framework. This has also been
discussed on the gcc mailing lists.
</p><p>
Testing the C++ library ABI can also be done various ways.
</p><p>
One.
(Brendan Kehoe, Jeff Law suggestion to run 'make check-c++' two ways,
one with a new compiler and an old library, and the other with an old
compiler and a new library, and look for testsuite regressions)
</p><p>
Details on how to set this kind of test up can be found here:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2002-08/msg00142.html
</p><p>
Two.
Use the 'make check-abi' rule in the libstdc++ Makefile.
</p><p>
This is a proactive check of the library ABI. Currently, exported symbol
names that are either weak or defined are checked against a last known
good baseline. Currently, this baseline is keyed off of 3.4.0
binaries, as this was the last time the .so number was incremented. In
addition, all exported names are demangled, and the exported objects
are checked to make sure they are the same size as the same object in
the baseline.
 
Notice that each baseline is relative to a <span class="emphasis"><em>default</em></span>
configured library and compiler: in particular, if options such as
--enable-clocale, or --with-cpu, in case of multilibs, are used at
configure time, the check may fail, either because of substantive
differences or because of limitations of the current checking
machinery.
</p><p>
This dataset is insufficient, yet a start. Also needed is a
comprehensive check for all user-visible types part of the standard
library for sizeof() and alignof() changes.
</p><p>
Verifying compatible layouts of objects is not even attempted.  It
should be possible to use sizeof, alignof, and offsetof to compute
offsets for each structure and type in the standard library, saving to
another datafile. Then, compute this in a similar way for new
binaries, and look for differences.
</p><p>
Another approach might be to use the -fdump-class-hierarchy flag to
get information. However, currently this approach gives insufficient
data for use in library testing, as class data members, their offsets,
and other detailed data is not displayed with this flag.
(See PR g++/7470 on how this was used to find bugs.)
</p><p>
Perhaps there are other C++ ABI checkers. If so, please notify
us. We'd like to know about them!

  Then, the "C" compiler is used to compile a source file that uses
  functions from each library.
</p><pre class="programlisting">

  This resulting binary, when executed, will be able to safely use
  code from both liba, and the dependent libstdc++.so.6, and libb,
  with the dependent libstdc++.so.5.

  Some features in the C++ language make versioning especially
  difficult. In particular, compiler generated constructs such as
  implicit instantiations for templates, typeinfo information, and
  virtual tables all may cause ABI leakage across shared library
  boundaries. Because of this, mixing C++ ABIs is not recommended at
  this time.
