- Always use string pooling when building: this helps reducing the
size of the binaries due to string redundancy coming from the usage
of __FILE__ / __RELFILE__ in the debugging helper macros. Note also
that GCC builds use string pooling by default.
- Use suitable add_compile_flags() command.
- Add some explanative comments for some settings.
Some numbers (obtained with my local builds):
Before / After => Reduction
===========================
freeldr.sys : 443 KB ( 453.632 bytes) / 364 KB ( 372.736 bytes) => ~ 18%
win32k.sys : 1877 KB (1.922.048 bytes) / 1562 KB (1.599.488 bytes) => ~ 17%
ntoskrnl.exe : 2253 KB (2.307.072 bytes) / 1902 KB (1.947.136 bytes) => ~ 15.6%
kernel32.dll : 3008 KB (3.080.192 bytes) / 2906 KB (2.975.744 bytes) => ~ 3.4%
* Add an NDK header to define INIT_FUNCTION/INIT_SECTION globally
* Use _declspec(allocate(x)) and _declspec(code_seg(x)) on MSVC versions that support it
* Use INIT_FUNCTION on functions only and INIT_SECTION on data only (required by MSVC)
* Place INIT_FUNCTION before the return type (required by MSVC)
* Make sure declarations and implementations share the same modifiers (required by MSVC)
* Add a global linker option to suppress warnings about defined but unused INIT section
* Merge INIT section into .text in freeldr
* Remove unused cmake modules - Both are unedited versions of modules provided by cmake itself
* Remove Compiler/GNU.cmake - Only chang was various _INIT flags, which are handled
via CMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE instead
* Remove Platform/Windows.cmake - There's no clear explination for this file being in reactos
and is simply an old version of the one in cmake
* Remove Platform/Windows-MSVC.cmake - _INIT variable changes moved to overrides-msvc.cmake
Remove /implib from link commands
* Remove CMakeDetermineASMCompiler.cmake - Only change from 3.2 is the addition of a compiler list for the generic ASM dialect, but toolchain files explicitly set a compiler so the list is never used
- SIZE_T -> ULONG in KsecGatherEntropyData
- Add missing ZwQueryInformationProcess() prototype for x64 build of btrfs
- Fix ml.exe path for VS 2017 Community Edition
- Add missing Handle32ToHandle to basetsd.h
