#


menu "General Library Settings"

config HAVE_PIC
	bool "Generate Position Independent Code (PIC)"
	default y
	help
	  If you wish to build uClibc with support for shared libraries then
	  answer Y here.  If you only want to build uClibc as a static library,
	  then answer N.

config HAVE_SHARED
	bool "Enable support for shared libraries"
	depends on HAVE_PIC
	default y
	help
	  If you wish to build uClibc with support for shared libraries then
	  answer Y here.  If you only want to build uClibc as a static library,
	  then answer N.

config BUILD_UCLIBC_LDSO
	bool "Compile native shared library loader"
	depends on HAVE_SHARED
	default y
	help
	  uClibc has a native shared library loader for some architectures.
	  If you answer Y here, the uClibc native shared library loader will
	  be built for your target architecture.  If this option is available,
	  to you, then you almost certainly want to answer Y.

config UCLIBC_HAS_THREADS
	bool "POSIX Threading Support"
	default y
	help
	  If you want to compile uClibc with pthread support, then answer Y.  
	  This will increase the size of uClibc by adding a bunch of locking
	  to critical data structures, and adding extra code to ensure that
	  functions are properly reentrant.

	  If your applications require pthreads, answer Y.

config UCLIBC_HAS_LFS
	bool "Large File Support"
	default y
	help
	  If you wish to build uClibc with support for accessing large files 
	  (i.e. files greater then 2 GiB) then answer Y.  Do not enable this 
	  if you are using an older Linux kernel (2.0.x) that lacks large file 
	  support.  Enabling this option will increase the size of uClibc.

choice
	prompt "Malloc Implementation"
	default "malloc-930716"
	help
	  "malloc" use mmap for all allocations and so works very well on MMU-less
	  systems that do not support the brk() system call.   It is pretty smart
	  about reusing already allocated memory, and minimizing memory wastage.

	  "malloc-930716" is derived from libc-5.3.12 and uses the brk() system call
	  for all memory allocations.  This makes it very fast.  It is also pretty
	  smart about reusing already allocated memory, and minimizing memory wastage.
	  Because this uses brk() it will not work on uClinux MMU-less systems.

	  If unsure, answer "malloc".

config MALLOC
	bool "malloc"

config MALLOC_930716
	bool "malloc-930716"
	depends on UCLIBC_HAS_MMU

endchoice

config HAS_SHADOW
	bool "Shadow Password Support"
	default y
	help
	  Answer N if you do not need shadow password support.  
	  Most people will answer Y.

config UCLIBC_HAS_REGEX
	bool "Regular Expression Support"
	default y
	help
	  Posix regular expression code is really big -- 27k all by itself.
	  If you don't use regular expressions, turn this off and save space.
	  Of course, if you only staticly link, leave this on, since it will
	  only be included in your apps if you use regular expressions.

config UNIX98PTY_ONLY
	bool "Support only Unix 98 PTYs"
	default y
	help
	  If you want to support only Unix 98 PTYs enable this.  Some older
	  applications may need this disabled.  For most current programs, 
	  you can generally answer Y.

config ASSUME_DEVPTS
	bool "Assume that /dev/pts is a devpts or devfs file system"
	default y
	help
	  Enable this if /dev/pts is on a devpts or devfs filesystem.  Both
	  these filesystems automatically manage permissions on the /dev/pts 
	  devices.  You may need to mount your devpts or devfs filesystem on
	  /dev/pts for this to work.

	  Most people should answer Y.

endmenu



menu "Networking Support"

config UCLIBC_HAS_IPV6
	bool "IP version 6 Support"
	default n
	help
	  If you want to include support for the next version of the Internet
	  Protocol (IP version 6) then answer Y.
	  
	  Most people should answer N.

config UCLIBC_HAS_RPC
	bool "Remote Procedute Call (RPC) support"
	default n
	help
	  If you want to include RPC support, enable this.  RPC is rarely used 
	  for anything except for the NFS filesystem.  Unless you plan to use NFS, 
	  you can probably leave this set to N and save some space.  If you need
	  to use NFS then you should answer Y.

config UCLIBC_HAS_FULL_RPC
	bool "Full RPC support"
	depends on UCLIBC_HAS_RPC
	default n
	help
	  Normally we enable just enough RPC support for things like rshd and
	  nfs mounts to work.  If you find you need the rest of the RPC stuff, 
	  then enable this option.  Most people can safely answer N.

endmenu


menu "String and Stdio Support"

config UCLIBC_HAS_WCHAR
	bool "Wide Charactor Support"
	default n
	help
	  Answer Y to enable wide char support.  This will make uClibc much
	  bigger.

	  Most people will answer N.

config UCLIBC_HAS_LOCALE
	bool "Locale Support"
	depends on UCLIBC_HAS_WCHAR
	default n
	help
	  Answer Y to enable locale support.  This will make uClibc much
	  bigger.

	  Most people will answer N.

config USE_OLD_VFPRINTF
	bool "Use the old vfprintf implementation"
	default n
	help
	  Set to true to use the old vfprintf instead of the new.  This is roughly
	  C89 compliant, but doesn't deal with qualifiers on %n and doesn't deal with
	  %h correctly or %hh at all on the interger conversions.  But on i386 it is
	  over 1.5k smaller than the new code.  Of course, the new code fixes the
	  above mentioned deficiencies and adds custom specifier support similar to
	  glibc, as well as handling positional args.  This will be rewritten at some 
	  point to bring it to full C89 standards compliance.

	  Most people will answer N.

endmenu

menu "Library Installation Options"

config SHARED_LIB_LOADER_PATH
	string "Shared library loader path"
	depends on BUILD_UCLIBC_LDSO
	default "$(DEVEL_PREFIX)/lib"
	help
	  When using shared libraries, this path is the location where the
	  shared library will be invoked.  This value will be compiled into
	  every binary compiled with uClibc.

	  BIG FAT WARNING:
	  If you do not have a shared library loader with the correct name
	  sitting in the directory this points to, your binaries will not 
	  run.

config SYSTEM_LDSO
	string "System shared library loader"
	depends on !BUILD_UCLIBC_LDSO
	default "/lib/ld-linux.so.2"
	help
	  If you are using shared libraries, but do not want/have a native
	  uClibc shared library loader, please specify the name of your
	  target system's shared library loader here...

	  BIG FAT WARNING:
	  If you do not have a shared library loader with the correct name
	  sitting in the directory this points to, your binaries will not 
	  run.

config DEVEL_PREFIX
	string "uClibc development environment directory"
	default "/usr/$(TARGET_ARCH)-linux-uclibc"
	help
	  DEVEL_PREFIX is the directory into which the uClibc development
	  environment will be installed.   The result will look something
	  like the following:
	      $(DEVEL_PREFIX)/
	          lib/            <contains all runtime and static libs>
		  include/        <Where all the header files go>
	  This value is used by the 'make install' Makefile target.  Since this
	  directory is compiled into the uclibc cross compiler spoofer, you
	  have to recompile uClibc if you change this value...

config SYSTEM_DEVEL_PREFIX
	string "uClibc development environment system directory"
	default "$(DEVEL_PREFIX)"
	help
	  SYSTEM_DEVEL_PREFIX is the directory prefix used when installing
	  bin/arch-uclibc-gcc, bin/arch-uclibc-ld, etc.   This is only used by
	  the 'make install' target, and is not compiled into anything.  This
	  defaults to $(DEVEL_PREFIX)/usr, but makers of .rpms and .debs will
	  want to set this to "/usr" instead.

endmenu

menu "uClibc hacking options"

config DODEBUG
	bool "Build uClibc with debugging symbols"
	default n
	help
	  Say Y here if you wish to compile uClibc with debugging symbols.
	  This will allow you to use a debugger to examine uClibc internals
	  while applications are running.  This increases the size of the
	  library considerably and should only be used when doing development.
	  If you are doing development and want to debug uClibc, answer Y.

	  Otherwise, answer N.
