This commits simply uses CC as CC_FOR_BUILD and the same for
corresponding flags if we're not cross-compiling. This has a number of
benefits in this common case:
- It avoids strange cases where very old compilers are used (#768).
- Flags are consistently set for CC and CC_FOR_BUILD.
- ./configure is faster.
- You get compiler x consistently if you set CC=x; we got this wrong
in CI in the past.
./configure warns if a _FOR_BUILD variable is set but ignored because
we're not cross-compiling.
The change exposed that //-style comments are used in gen_context.c,
which is also fixed by this commit.
This commit also reorganizes code in configure.ac to have a cleaner
separation of sections.
make ECMULT_GEN_PREC_BITS configurable
ecmult_static_context.h: add compile time config assertion (#3) - Prevents accidentally using a file which was generated with a
different configuration.
README: mention valgrind issue
With --with-ecmult-gen-precision=8, valgrind needs a max stack size
adjustment to not run into a stack switching heuristic:
http://valgrind.org/docs/manual/manual-core.html
> -max-stackframe= [default: 2000000]
> The maximum size of a stack frame. If the stack pointer moves by more than this amount then Valgrind will assume that the program is switching to a different stack.
You may need to use this option if your program has large stack-allocated arrays.
basic-config: undef ECMULT_WINDOW_SIZE before (re-)defining it
This vastly shrinks the size of the context required for signing on devices with
memory-mapped Flash.
Tables are generated by the new gen_context tool into a header.
