* Fix include paths in include/bits/types/*.h.Joseph Myers2017-06-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Various include/bits/types/*.h files do where the path specified is relative to the toplevel glibc source directory. That has the wrong number of ../ components to achieve the desired effect; it actually searches relative to include/ for a file that does not exist there, then goes on to search the #include <> paths specified with -I, eventually finding the desired file via such a path (e.g. sysdeps/nptl/) with the right number of directory components. Before that it searches include/../.. because of the -Iinclude, meaning that an appropriately named file outside the glibc source tree can affect the build. This patch changes all those files to do #include <path> without the ../../, as some such files already do. Tested for x86_64. * include/bits/types/clock_t.h: Use #include <path> instead of #include "../../path". * include/bits/types/clockid_t.h: Likewise. * include/bits/types/struct_iovec.h: Likewise. * include/bits/types/struct_itimerspec.h: Likewise. * include/bits/types/struct_osockaddr.h: Likewise. * include/bits/types/struct_sigstack.h: Likewise. * include/bits/types/struct_timespec.h: Likewise. * include/bits/types/struct_timeval.h: Likewise. * include/bits/types/struct_tm.h: Likewise. * include/bits/types/time_t.h: Likewise. * include/bits/types/timer_t.h: Likewise.
* Fix sys/socket.h namespace issues from sys/uio.h inclusion (bug 21426).Joseph Myers2017-04-251-0/+1
sys/socket.h includes sys/uio.h to get the definition of the iovec structure. POSIX allows sys/socket.h to make all sys/uio.h symbols visible. However, all of sys/uio.h is XSI-shaded, so for non-XSI POSIX this results in conformtest failures (for sys/socket.h and other headers that include it): Namespace violation: "UIO_MAXIOV" Namespace violation: "readv" Namespace violation: "writev" Now, there is some ambiguity in POSIX about what namespace reservations apply in this case - see http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1127 - but glibc convention would still avoid declaring readv and writev, for example, for feature test macros that don't include them (if only headers from the relevant standard are included), even if such declarations are permitted, so there is a bug here according to glibc conventions. This patch moves the struct iovec definition to a new bits/types/struct_iovec.h header and includes that from sys/socket.h instead of including the whole of sys/uio.h. This fixes the namespace issue; however, three files in glibc that were relying on the implicit inclusion needed to be updated to include sys/uio.h explicitly. So there is a question of whether sys/socket.h should continue to include sys/uio.h under some conditions, such as __USE_XOPEN or __USE_MISC or __USE_XOPEN || __USE_MISC, for greater compatibility with code that (wrongly) expects this optional inclusion to be present there. (I think the three affected files in glibc should still have explicit sys/uio.h inclusions added in any case, however.) Tested for x86_64. [BZ #21426] * misc/bits/types/struct_iovec.h: New file. * misc/Makefile (headers): Add bits/types/struct_iovec.h. * include/bits/types/struct_iovec.h: New file. * bits/uio.h (struct iovec): Replace by inclusion of <bits/types/struct_iovec.h>. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/bits/uio.h (struct iovec): Likewise. * socket/sys/socket.h: Include <bits/types/struct_iovec.h> instead of <sys/uio.h>. * nptl/tst-cancel4.c: Include <sys/uio.h> * posix/test-errno.c: Likewise. * support/resolv_test.c: Likewise. * conform/Makefile (test-xfail-POSIX2008/arpa/inet.h/conform): Remove. (test-xfail-POSIX2008/netdb.h/conform): Likewise. (test-xfail-POSIX2008/netinet/in.h/conform): Likewise. (test-xfail-POSIX2008/sys/socket.h/conform): Likewise.
