4 Subject: [PATCH] configure.ac: check if libatomic is needed
6 The mpd source code uses the C++11 <atomic> functionality, which
7 internally is implemented using the __atomic_*() gcc built-ins. On
8 certain architectures, the __atomic_*() built-ins are implemented in
9 the libatomic library that comes with the rest of the gcc runtime. Due
10 to this, code using <atomic> might need to link against libatomic,
11 otherwise one hits build issues such as:
13 GlobalEvents.cxx:(.text._ZN12GlobalEvents4EmitENS_5EventE+0x14): undefined reference to `__atomic_fetch_or_4'
15 on an architecture like SPARC.
17 To solve this, a configure.ac check is added to know if we need to
18 link against libatomic or not.
