Plus + // some fields can sometimes be omitted. This looseness makes it hard to base + // any kind of decisions on the triplet without canonicalizing it and then + // splitting it into components. the way we are going to split it is like + // this: + // + // CPU + // + // This one is reasonably straightforward. Note that we always expect at + // least two components with the first being the CPU. In other words, we + // don't try to guess what just 'mingw32' might mean like config.sub does. + // + // VENDOR + // + // This can be a machine vendor as in i686-apple-darwin8, a toolchain vendor + // as in i686-lfs-linux-gnu, or something else as in arm-softfloat-linux-gnu. + // Just as we think vendor is pretty irrelevant and can be ignored, comes + // MinGW-W64 and calls itself *-w64-mingw32. While it is tempting to + // attribute w64 to OS-ABI, the MinGW-W64 folks insist it is a (presumably + // toolchain) vendor. + // + // To make thing more regular we also convert the information-free vendor + // names 'pc', 'unknown' and 'none' to the empty name. + // + // OS/KERNEL-OS/OS-ABI + // + // This is where things get really messy and instead of trying to guess, we + // call the entire thing SYSTEM. Except, in certain cases, we factor out the + // trailing version, again, to make SYSTEM easier to compare to. For example, + // *-darwin14.5.0 becomes 'darwin' and '14.5.0'. + // + // Again, to make things more regular, if the first component in SYSTEM is + // none, then it is removed (so *-none-eabi becomes just 'eabi'). + // + // Values for two-component systems (e.g., linux-gnu) that don't specify + // VENDOR explicitly are inherently ambiguous: is 'linux' VENDOR or part of + // SYSTEM? The only way to handle this is to recognize their specific names + // as special cases and this is what we do for some of the more common + // ones. The alternative would be to first run such names through config.sub + // which adds explicit VENDOR and this could be a reasonable fallback + // strategy for (presumably less common) cases were we don't split things + // correctly. + // + // Note also that the version splitting is only done for certain, + // commonly-used targets. + // + // Some examples of canonicalization and splitting: + // + // x86_64-apple-darwin14.5.0 x86_64 apple darwin 14.5.0 + // x86_64-unknown-freebsd10.2 x86_64 freebsd 10.2 + // i686-elf i686 elf + // arm-eabi arm eabi + // arm-none-eabi arm eabi + // arm-none-linux-gnueabi arm linux-gnueabi + // arm-softfloat-linux-gnu arm softfloat linux-gnu + // i686-pc-mingw32 i686 mingw32 + // i686-w64-mingw32 i686 w64 mingw32 + // i686-lfs-linux-gnu i686 lfs linux-gnu + // x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu x86_64 linux-gnu + // x86_64-linux-gnux32 x86_64 linux-gnux32 + // + // References: + // + // 1.
