Android NDK, Revision 9c (December 2013)
+
+
+This is a bug-fix-only release.
+-
+
- Important bug fixes: +
-
+
-
+
- Fixed a problem with GCC 4.8 ARM, in which the stack pointer is restored too early. This problem prevented the frame pointer from reliably accessing a variable in the stack frame. For more information, see http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58854. +
- - Fixed a problem with GCC 4.8 libstdc++, in which a bug in std::nth_element was causing generation of code that produced a random segfault. For more information, see https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=62910. +
- Fixed GCC 4.8 ICE in cc1/cc1plus with
-fuse-ld=mcld, so that the following error no longer occurs: +cc1: internal compiler error: in common_handle_option, at opts.c:1774
+ - Fixed
-mhard-floatsupport for__builtinmath functions. For ongoing information on fixes for -mhard-float with STL, please follow http://b.android.com/61784.
+
+
+ - Other bug fixes: +
-
+
-
+
- Header fixes:
+
-
+
- Changed prototype of
polltopoll(struct pollfd *, nfds_t, int);inpoll.h.
+ - Added
utimensattolibc.soin API levels 12 and 19. It is now present in levels 12-19.
+ - Introduced
futimensintolibc.so, as of API level 19.
+ - Added missing
clock_settime()andclock_nanosleep()totime.hfor API 8 and higher.
+ - Added
CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW, CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE, CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE, CLOCK_BOOTTIME, CLOCK_REALTIME_ALARM,andCLOCK_BOOTTIME_ALARMintime.h.
+ - Removed obsolete
CLOCK_REALTIME_HRandCLOCK_MONOTONIC_HR.
+
+ - Changed prototype of
- Refactored samples Teapot, MoreTeapots, and
source/android/ndk_helperas follows: +-
+
- They now use a hard-float abi for armeabi-v7a. +
- Android-19 now has immersive mode. +
- Fixed a problem with
Check_ReleaseStringUTFCharsin/system/lib/libdvm.sothat was causing crashes on x86 devices.
+
+ - Fixed ndk-build fails that happen in cygwin when the NDK package is referenced via symlink. +
- Fixed ndk-build.cmd fails that happen in windows
cmd.exewhenLOCAL_SRC_FILEScontains absolute paths. See https://android-review.googlesource.com/#/c/69992.
+ - Fixed ndk-stack to proceed even when it can't parse a frame due to inability to find a routine, filename, or line number. In any of those cases, it prints "??". +
- Fixed ndk-stack windows-x64_64 so that it no longer erroneously matches a frame line with a line in the
stack:+ section that doesn't containpc,eip, orip. For example: +I/DEBUG ( 1151): #00 5f09db68 401f01c4 /system/lib/libc.so
+ - Fixed gabi++ so that it:
+
-
+
- Does not use malloc() to allocate C++ thread-local + objects. +
- Avoids deadlocks in gabi++ in cases where libc.debug.malloc is non-zero in + userdebug/eng Android platform builds. +
+
+ - Header fixes:
+
- Other changes: +
-
+
-
+
- Added
LOCAL_EXPORT_LDFLAGS.
+ - Introduced the
NDK_PROJECT_PATH=nullsetting for use in an integrated build system where options are explicitly passed tondk-build. With this setting,ndk-buildmakes no attempt to look forNDK_PROJECT_PATH.This setting also prevents variables from deriving default settings from NDK_PROJECT_PATH. As a result, the following variables must now be explicitly specified (with their default values if such exist):NDK_OUT, NDK_LIBS_OUT, APP_BUILD_SCRIPT, NDK_DEBUG(optional, default to 0), and otherAPP_*'s contained inApplication.mk.
+ APP_ABIcan now be enumerated in a comma-delimited list. For example: +APP_ABI := "armeabi,armeabi-v7a"
+- Provided the ability (option
-g) to rebuild all of STL with debugging info in an optional, separate package calledandroid-ndk-r9c-cxx-stl-libs-with-debugging-info.zip. This option helps ndk-stack to provide better a stack dump across STL. This change should not affect the code/size of the final, stripped file.
+ - Enhanced
hello-jnisamples to reportAPP_ABIat compilation.
+ - Used the
artool in Deterministic mode (option-D) to build static libraries. For more information, see http://b.android.com/60705.
