There is important information about booting non-ack images in docs/UPDATING. ack/aout-format images can't be built any more, and booting clang/ELF-format ones is a little different. Updating to the new boot monitor is recommended. Changes in this commit: . drop boot monitor -> allowing dropping ack support . facility to copy ELF boot files to /boot so that old boot monitor can still boot fairly easily, see UPDATING . no more ack-format libraries -> single-case libraries . some cleanup of OBJECT_FMT, COMPILER_TYPE, etc cases . drop several ack toolchain commands, but not all support commands (e.g. aal is gone but acksize is not yet). . a few libc files moved to netbsd libc dir . new /bin/date as minix date used code in libc/ . test compile fix . harmonize includes . /usr/lib is no longer special: without ack, /usr/lib plays no kind of special bootstrapping role any more and bootstrapping is done exclusively through packages, so releases depend even less on the state of the machine making them now. . rename nbsd_lib* to lib* . reduce mtree

|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn fputc
|
|
function
|
|
writes the character
|
|
.Fa c
|
|
(converted to an ``unsigned char'')
|
|
to the output stream pointed to by
|
|
.Fa stream .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn putc
|
|
acts essentially identically to
|
|
.Fn fputc ,
|
|
but is a macro that expands in-line.
|
|
It may evaluate
|
|
.Fa stream
|
|
more than once, so arguments given to
|
|
.Fn putc
|
|
should not be expressions with potential side effects.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn putchar
|
|
is identical to
|
|
.Fn putc
|
|
with an output stream of
|
|
.Em stdout .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn putc_unlocked
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn putchar_unlocked
|
|
functions provide functionality identical to that of
|
|
.Fn putc
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn putchar ,
|
|
respectively, but do not perform implicit locking of the streams they
|
|
operate on.
|
|
In multi-threaded programs they may be used
|
|
.Em only
|
|
within a scope in which the stream
|
|
has been successfully locked by the calling thread using either
|
|
.Xr flockfile 3
|
|
or
|
|
.Xr ftrylockfile 3 ,
|
|
and may later be released using
|
|
.Xr funlockfile 3 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn putw
|
|
function
|
|
writes the specified
|
|
.Em int
|
|
to the named output
|
|
.Fa stream .
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The functions,
|
|
.Fn fputc ,
|
|
.Fn putc
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn putchar
|
|
return the character written.
|
|
If an error occurs, the value
|
|
.Dv EOF
|
|
is returned.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn putw
|
|
function
|
|
returns 0 on success;
|
|
.Dv EOF
|
|
is returned if
|
|
a write error occurs,
|
|
or if an attempt is made to write a read-only stream.

|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
The size and byte order of an
|
|
.Em int
|
|
varies from one machine to another, and
|
|
.Fn putw
|
|
is not recommended for portable applications.
