Subject: [PATCH] Darwin, libgfortran : Do not use environ directly from the  library.
Date: Fri, 20 Nov 2020 20:54:30 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <573D3BC5-53B5-4B29-8C03-5B8D60B5B485@sandoe.co.uk> (raw)

Hi,

not sure if this is covered directly by my Darwin maintainer’s hat so …

-----

On macOS / Darwin, the environ variable can be used directly in the
code of an executable, but cannot be used in the code of a shared
library (i.e. libgfortran.dylib)**

In such cases, the  function _NSGetEnviron should be called to get
the address of 'environ’.

tested on a number of Darwin platforms old and new, and on
x86_64/powerpc64-linux,

OK for master?
… and backports to open branches?
thanks
Iain

** we’ve been “getting away with it” because of the application of
dynamic_lookup in a rather broad manner, which I’m about to get rid
of.

libgfortran/ChangeLog:

	* intrinsics/execute_command_line.c (environ): Use
	_NSGetEnviron to get the environment pointer on Darwin.
