Re: [PATCH] win64 support for libffi (2/2)


There seem to be some win32 patches in sourceware libffi that aren't in gcc/libffi. Probably some other things as well.

The libffi ABI has changed? Are you sure?
No, I'm not clear, I'm repeating something I was told second- hand:

http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2009-02/msg00051.html

Maybe I just meant that the API has changed, not the ABI?

Neither have changed AFAIAA. There are some updates and fixes in gcc
that are not yet in upstream libffi.

Ok, this is what I mean:


admin@ubik /tmp/libffi/upstream
$ tail -2 /tmp/libffi/upstream/libffi-3.0.8/libtool-version
# CURRENT:REVISION:AGE
5:9:0

admin@ubik /tmp/libffi/upstream
$ tail -2 /gnu/gcc/gcc/libffi/libtool-version
# CURRENT:REVISION:AGE
4:1:0

Maybe it needs to be merged in both directions.
