Update GMP to version 5.0.2


Changes between GMP version 5.0.1 and 5.0.2

  BUGS FIXED
  * Many minor bugs related to portability fixed.

  * The support for HPPA 2.0N now works, after an assembly bug fix.

  * A test case type error has been fixed.  The symptom of this bug
    was spurious 'make check' failures.

  SPEEDUPS
  * None, except indirectly through recognition of new CPUs.

  FEATURES
  * Fat builds are now supported for 64-bit x86 processors also under Darwin.

  MISC
  * None.

Fix build on Solaris 10.

Unfortunately, with recent gcc, the x86 version of mpn fails to build on
Solaris.  Add it to Darwin on the list of platforms for which we build a
generic mpn instead.

Update to GMP 5.0.1


Changes in GMP 5.0.1

BUGS FIXED

  - Fat builds fixed.
  - Fixed crash for huge multiplies when old FFT_TABLE2 type of parameter selection tables' sentinel was smaller than multiplied
    operands.
  - The solib numbers now reflect the removal of the documented but preliminary mpn_bdivmod function; we correctly flag
    incompatibility with GMP 4.3. GMP 5.0.0 has this wrong, and should perhaps be uninstalled to avoid confusion.

SPEEDUPS

  - Multiplication of large numbers has indirectly been sped up through better FFT tuning and processor recognition. Since many
    operations depend on multiplication, there will be a general speedup.

FEATURES

  - More Core i3, i5 an Core i7 processor models are recognised.
  - Fixes and workarounds for Mac OS quirks should make this GMP version build using many of the different versions of "Xcode".

MISC

  - The amount of scratch memory needed for multiplication of huge numbers have been reduced substantially (but is still larger
    than in GMP 4.3.)
  - Likewise, the amount of scratch memory needed for division of large numbers have been reduced substantially.
  - The FFT tuning code of tune/tuneup.c has been completely rewritten, and new, large FFT parameter selection tables are provided
    for many machines.
  - Upgraded to the latest autoconf, automake, libtool.


Changes in GMP 5.0.0

BUGS FIXED

  - None (contains the same fixes as release 4.3.2).

SPEEDUPS

  - Multiplication has been overhauled:
     1. Multiplication of larger same size operands has been improved with the addition of two new Toom functions and a new
        internal function mpn_mulmod_bnm1 (computing U * V mod (B^n-1), B being the word base. This latter function is used for the
        largest products, waiting for a better Schoenhage-Strassen U * V mod (B^n+1) implementation.
     2. Likewise for squaring.
     3. Multiplication of different size operands has been improved with the addition of many new Toom function, and by selecting
        underlying functions better from the main multiply functions.
  - Division and mod have been overhauled:
     1. Plain "schoolbook" division is reimplemented using faster quotient approximation.
     2. Division Q = N/D, R = N mod D where both the quotient and remainder are needed now runs in time O(M(log(N))). This is an
        improvement of a factor log(log(N))
     3. Division where just the quotient is needed is now O(M(log(Q))) on average.
     4. Modulo operations using Montgomery REDC form now take time O(M(n)).
     5. Exact division Q = N/D by means of mpz_divexact has been improved for all sizes, and now runs in time O(M(log(N))).
  - The function mpz_powm is now faster for all sizes. Its complexity has gone from O(M(n)log(n)m) to O(M(n)m) where n is the size
    of the modulo argument and m is the size of the exponent. It is also radically faster for even modulus, since it now partially
    factors such modulus and performs two smaller modexp operations, then uses CRT.
  - The internal support for multiplication yielding just the lower n limbs has been improved by using Mulders' algorithm.
  - Computation of inverses, both plain 1/N and 1/N mod B^n have been improved by using well-tuned Newton iterations, and
    wrap-around multiplication using mpn_mulmod_bnm1.
  - A new algorithm makes mpz_perfect_power_p asymptotically faster.
  - The function mpz_remove uses a much faster algorithm, is better tuned, and also benefits from the division improvements.
  - Intel Atom and VIA Nano specific optimisations.
  - Plus hundreds of smaller improvements and tweaks!

FEATURES

  - New mpz function: mpz_powm_sec for side-channel quiet modexp computations.
  - New mpn functions: mpn_sqr, mpn_and_n, mpn_ior_n, mpn_xor_n, mpn_nand_n, mpn_nior_n, mpn_xnor_n, mpn_andn_n, mpn_iorn_n,
    mpn_com, mpn_neg, mpn_copyi, mpn_copyd, mpn_zero.
  - The function mpn_tdiv_qr now allows certain argument overlap.
  - Support for fat binaries for 64-bit x86 processors has been added.
  - A new type, mp_bitcnt_t for bignum bit counts, has been introduced.
  - Support for Windows64 through mingw64 has been added.
  - The cofactors of mpz_gcdext and mpn_gcdext are now more strictly normalised, returning to how GMP 4.2 worked. (Note that also
    release 4.3.2 has this change.)

MISC

  - The mpn_mul function should no longer be used for squaring, instead use the new mpn_sqr.
  - The algorithm selection has been improved, the number of thresholds have more than doubled, and the tuning and use of existing
    thresholds have been improved.
  - The tune/speed program can measure many of new functions.
  - The mpn_bdivmod function has been removed. We do not consider this an incompatible change, since the function was marked as
    preliminary.
  - The testsuite has been enhanced in various ways.


Changes in GMP 4.3.2

Bugs:

  - Fixed bug in mpf_eq.
  - Fixed overflow issues in mpz_set_str, mpz_inp_str, mpf_set_str, and mpf_get_str.
  - Avoid unbounded stack allocation for unbalanced multiplication.
  - Fixed bug in FFT multiplication.

Speedups:

  - None, except that improved processor recognition helps affected processors.

Features:

  - Recognise more "Core 2" processor variants.
  - The cofactors of mpz_gcdext and mpn_gcdext are now more strictly normalised, returning to how GMP 4.2 worked.

Update to 4.3.1. Add gnu-gpl-v3 to LICENSE, since README claims it
also affects some files.

Changes between GMP version 4.3.0 and 4.3.1

  Bugs:
  * Fixed bug in mpn_gcdext, affecting also mpz_gcdext and mpz_invert.
    The bug could cause a cofactor to have a leading zero limb, which
    could lead to crashes or miscomputation later on.
  * Fixed some minor documentation issues.

  Features:
  * Workarounds for various issues with Mac OS X's build tools.
  * Recognise more IBM "POWER" processor variants.


Changes between GMP version 4.2.X and 4.3.0

  Bugs:
  * Fixed bug in mpz_perfect_power_p with recognition of negative perfect
    powers that can be written both as an even and odd power.
  * We might accidentally have added bugs since there is a large amount of
    new code in this release.

  Speedups:
  * Vastly improved assembly code for x86-64 processors from AMD and Intel.
  * Major improvements also for many other processor families, such as
    Alpha, PowerPC, and Itanium.
  * New sub-quadratic mpn_gcd and mpn_gcdext, as well as improved basecase
    gcd code.
  * The multiply FFT code has been slightly improved.
  * Balanced multiplication now uses 4-way Toom in addition to schoolbook,
    Karatsuba, 3-way Toom, and FFT.
  * Unbalanced multiplication has been vastly improved.
  * Improved schoolbook division by means of faster quotient approximation.
  * Several new algorithms for division and mod by single limbs, giving
    many-fold speedups.
  * Improved nth root computations.
  * The mpz_nextprime function uses sieving and is much faster.
  * Countless minor tweaks.

  Features:
  * Updated support for fat binaries for x86_32 include current processors
  * Lots of new mpn internal interfaces.  Some of them will become public
    in a future GMP release.
  * Support for the 32-bit ABI under x86-apple-darwin.
  * x86 CPU recognition code should now default better for future
    processors.
  * The experimental nails feature does not work in this release, but
    it might be re-enabled in the future.

  Misc:
  * The gmp_version variable now always contains three parts.  For this
    release, it is "4.3.0".

Use standard location for LICENSE line (in MAINTAINER/HOMEPAGE/COMMENT
block). Uncomment some commented out LICENSE lines while here.

Disable C++ and fat binary support when using Sun Studio, they don't build.

Enable building the fat binary unless we're using Darwin;
this seems to make the most sense for bulk builds to me.
Should any other platforms fail, we can make a note of it
and exclude them along with Darwin.

Also, add two distribution patches from upstream:

[2008-11-09]
	When calling mpf_set_str (perhaps indirectly via
	mpf_init_set_str or mpf_inp_str, or via the C++ interface) with the
	argument for the base set to 0, any exponent will be ignored.
[2008-11-08]
	The mpf_eq function sometimes compares too few bits, not
	just too many (the latter is documented).
	This might lead to precision loss. When the experimental
	--enable-nails feature is enabled at the same time --enable-cxx is
	enabled, make check fails. This failure is actually due to bugs
	in tests/cxx/t-prec.cc, which makes it use mpf_eq incorrectly.
	This patch makes mpf_eq compare the right number of bits,
	neither too few, nor to many.
	The patch also fixes the test case, and documentation.

	(not strictly necessary, but I figured I'd keep in line with
	their recommendations)

PKGREVISION++

Update to 4.2.4:

Changes between GMP version 4.2.3 and 4.2.4

  Bugs:
  * Fix bug with parsing exponent '+' sign in mpf.
  * Fix an allocation bug in mpf_set_str, also affecting mpf_init_set_str, and
    mpf_inp_str.

  Speedups:
  * None, except that proper processor recognition helps affected processors.

  Features:
  * Recognize new AMD processors.

Update to gmp-4.2.3.

Changes between GMP version 4.2.2 and 4.2.3:

  Bugs:
  * Fix x86 CPU recognition code to properly identify recent AMD and Intel
    64-bit processors.
  * The >> operator of the C++ wrapper gmpxx.h now does floor rounding, not
    truncation.
  * Inline semantics now follow the C99 standard, and works with recent GCC
    releases.
  * C++ bitwise logical operations work for more types.
  * For C++, gmp.h now includes cstdio, improving compiler compatibility.
  * Bases > 36 now work properly in mpf_set_str.

  Speedups:
  * None, except that proper processor recognition helps affected processors.

  Features:
  * The allocation functions now detect overflow of the mpz_t type.  This means
    that overflow will now cause an abort, except when the allocation
    computation itself overflows.  (Such overflow can probably only happen in
    powering functions; we will detect powering overflow in the future.)

Add distribution patch (from gmplib.org) for the following bug:

    When using mpf_set_str, mpf_init_set_str, or mpf_inp_str
    with a base > 36, the supplied base will actually be ignored,
    and the exponent 0 will be supplanted. [2007-12-10]

All tests pass on NetBSD/amd64 4.99.58.

Bump revision.

Put back a couple of IRIX conditionals the way they used to behave,
e.g. match IRIX 5.x but not 6.x. Some of these may indeed apply to 6.x
too, but let's be conservative. PR pkg/38224.

Update HOMEPAGES and MASTER_SITES; from Sergey Svishchev.

Sunpro accepts __attribute__((mode ...)), but ignores it. Fixed the
configure test and reported it upstream.

comment out LICENESE for now.

Update to version 4.2.2.  Support DESTDIR installation.  Add option
to build a "fat" binary on (${MACHINE_ARCH} == "i386" && ${OPSYS} != "Darwin").
This isn't enabled by default now, but it might be useful for build builds,
as it uses cpuid at runtime to choose the most appropriate assembler code.
Insofar as I can tell, no BUILDLINK_A[BP]I_DEPENDS bump is necessary.

NOTE: Support for Darwin-*-i386 and Darwin-*-x86_64 has been improved,
see below.  Thus, I recommend that we test building the assembler code
on Darwin at some point.

Changes between GMP version 4.2.1 and 4.2.2:
	* License is now LGPL version 3.
Bugs:
	* Shared library numbers corrected for libcxx.
	* Fixed serious bug in gmpxx.h where a=a+b*c would generate garbage.
	  Note that this only affects C++ programs.
	* Fix crash in mpz_set_d for arguments with large negative exponent.
	* Fix 32-bit ABI bug with Itanium assembly for popcount and hamdist.
	* Fix assembly syntax problem for powerpc-ibm-aix with AIX
	  native assembler.
	* Fix problems with x86 --enable-fat, where the compiler where told to
	  generate code for the build machine, not plain i386 code as it should.
	* Improved recognition of powerpc systems wrt Altivec/VMX capability.
	* Misc minor fixes, mainly workarounds for compiler/assembler bugs.
Speedups:
	* "Core 2" and Pentium 4 processors, running in 64-bit mode will get a
	  slight boost as they are now specifically recognized.
Features:
	* New support for x86_64-solaris
	* New, rudimentary support for x86-apple-darwin and x86_64-apple-darwin.
	  (Please see http://gmplib.org/macos.html for more information.)

Fix abusers of LOWER_OPSYS to check OPSYS or MACHINE_PLATFORM instead.

Don't use x86 assembly on Darwin, as it doesn't build.

pkglint cleanup; update HOMEPAGE/MASTER_SITES.
From Sergey Svishchev in private mail.

Update to GNU MP 4.2.1

Changes between GMP version 4.2 and 4.2.1

  Bugs:
  * Shared library numbers corrected.
  * Broken support for 32-bit AIX fixed.
  * Misc minor fixes.

  Speedups:
  * Exact division (mpz_divexact) now falls back to plain division for large
    operands.

  Features:
  * Support for some new systems.


Changes between GMP version 4.1.4 and 4.2

  Bugs:
  * Minor bug fixes and code generalizations.
  * Expanded and improved test suite.

  Speedups:
  * Many minor optimizations, too many to mention here.
  * Division now always subquadratic.
  * Computation of n-factorial much faster.
  * Added basic x86-64 assembly code.
  * Floating-point output is now subquadratic for all bases.
  * FFT multiply code now about 25% faster.
  * Toom3 multiply code faster.

  Features:
  * Much improved configure.
  * Workarounds for many more compiler bugs.
  * Temporary allocations are now made on the stack only if small.
  * New systems supported: HPPA-2.0 gcc, IA-64 HP-UX, PowerPC-64 Darwin,
    Sparc64 GNU/Linux.
  * New i386 fat binaries, selecting optimised code at runtime (--enable-fat).
  * New build option: --enable-profiling=instrument.
  * New memory function: mp_get_memory_functions.
  * New Mersenne Twister random numbers: gmp_randinit_mt, also now used for
    gmp_randinit_default.
  * New random functions: gmp_randinit_set, gmp_urandomb_ui, gmp_urandomm_ui.
  * New integer functions: mpz_combit, mpz_rootrem.
  * gmp_printf etc new type "M" for mp_limb_t.
  * gmp_scanf and friends now accept C99 hex floats.
  * Numeric input and output can now be in bases up to 62.
  * Comparisons mpz_cmp_d, mpz_cmpabs_d, mpf_cmp_d recognise infinities.
  * Conversions mpz_get_d, mpq_get_d, mpf_get_d truncate towards zero,
    previously their behaviour was unspecified.
  * Fixes for overflow issues with operands >= 2^31 bits.

  Caveats:
  * mpfr is gone, and will from now on be released only separately.  Please see
    www.mpfr.org.

Instead of setting compiler flags in each package if it uses C99,
allow USE_LANGUAGES+=c99 and let gcc and mipspro do the right thing.
May need to be reviewed/added for other compilers.

corrected LOWER_OPSYS matching for IRIX 5

* Honor PKGINFODIR.
* List the info files directly in the PLIST.

Point MAINTAINER to pkgsrc-users@NetBSD.org in the case where no
developer is officially maintaining the package.

The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list).  Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.

Make this work on IRIX, by passing -c99 (if mipspro is used) and by
ensuring that the conftests are actually removed and therefor capabilities
can actually be detected (rather than configure failing for them)

Remove USE_GNU_TOOLS and replace with the correct USE_TOOLS definitions:

	USE_GNU_TOOLS	-> USE_TOOLS
	awk		-> gawk
	m4		-> gm4
	make		-> gmake
	sed		-> gsed
	yacc		-> bison

Remove USE_BUILDLINK3 and NO_BUILDLINK; these are no longer used.

Add patch provided by Richard Earnshaw in PR 23181:
"GMP does not handle pure-endian FP on ARM"
Bump PKGREVISION.

Changes 4.1.4:
* Bug fix to FFT multiplication code (crash for huge operands).
* Bug fix to mpf_sub (miscomputation).
* Support for powerpc64-gnu-linux.
* Better support for AMD64 in 32-bit mode.
* Upwardly binary compatible with 4.1.3, 4.1.2, 4.1.1, 4.1, 4.0.1, 4.0,
  and 3.x versions.

Libtool fix for PR pkg/26633, and other issues.  Update libtool to 1.5.10
in the process.  (More information on tech-pkg.)

Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.

Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.

Changes 4.1.3:
* Bug fixes.
* mpz_export allows NULL for countp parameter.

LIBTOOL_OVERRIDE and SHLIBTOOL_OVERRIDE are now lists of shell globs
relative to ${WRKSRC}.  Remove redundant LIBTOOL_OVERRIDE settings that
are automatically handled by the default setting in bsd.pkg.mk.

This package uses C++.  Also some reorg to improve readability.

In the new compiler selection framework, GCC_REQD is appended to, not
overridden.

	Zimmermann.  Also fix a memory leak for invalid input.

	* mpfr/set_q.c: Allow for 1 bit numerator or denominator.

executable/patchname/whatnot.

While there, introduce BUILD_USES_MSGFMT as shorthand to pull in
devel/gettext unless /usr/bin/msgfmt exists (i.e. on post-1.5 -current).
