Ping. Could anyone review the patch? Kind regards, Evgeny Astigeevich

When an executable (e.g. for bare metal environment) is statically linked with libc++ the following code might not work as expected: ``` #include <iostream> class Foo { public: Foo(int n) { std::cout << "Hello World - " << n << std::endl; } }; Foo f(5); int main() { return 0; } ``` The program hangs or crashes because 'std::cout' is not initialized before 'Foo f(5)'. The standard says: > 27.3 Standard iostream objects > Header <iostream> synopsis > (2) ... The objects are constructed, and the associations are > established at some time prior to or during first time an object of > class basic_ios<charT,traits>::Init is constructed, and in any case before > the body of main begins execution [264]. The objects are not destroyed during > program execution [265]. > And footnote 265 says: > Constructors and destructors for static objects can access these > objects to read input from stdin or write output to stdout or stderr. The similar issue was raised more than year ago. A patch was proposed but not committed. See discussion of it here: [[ http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/cfe-commits/Week-of-Mon-20130304/075363.html | initial patch ]] [[ http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/cfe-commits/Week-of-Mon-20130325/077130.html | review, suggestion for #ifdef ]] The proposed patch caused initialization/deinitialization of the std streams as many times as the static Init objects were created. The current patch fixes this issue. A number of uses is counted by means of __shared_count. It is used instead of a 'int' variable because it is thread-safe. The standard allows multi-threaded initialization of static objects from different compilation modules. http://reviews.llvm.org/D12689 Files: include/ios src/iostream.cpp -- IMPORTANT NOTICE: The contents of this email and any attachments are confidential and may also be privileged.
