* restore use of .type in asm, but use modern @function (vs %function)Rich Felker2011-06-1420-0/+29
| | | | | | | | this seems to be necessary to make the linker accept the functions in a shared library (perhaps to generate PLT entries?) strictly speaking libc-internal asm should not need it. i might clean that up later.
* __syscall5 inline is having trouble with PIC; just use the function for nowRich Felker2011-06-141-0/+7

* fix race condition in pthread_killRich Felker2011-06-143-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | if thread id was reused by the kernel between the time pthread_kill read it from the userspace pthread_t object and the time of the tgkill syscall, a signal could be sent to the wrong thread. the tgkill syscall was supposed to prevent this race (versus the old tkill syscall) but it can't; it can only help in the case where the tid is reused in a different process, but not when the tid is reused in the same process. the only solution i can see is an extra lock to prevent threads from exiting while another thread is trying to pthread_kill them. it should be very very cheap in the non-contended case.
* run dtors before taking the exit-lock in pthread exitRich Felker2011-06-141-2/+2
| | | | previously a long-running dtor could cause pthread_detach to block.
* minor locking optimizationsRich Felker2011-06-142-2/+2

* avoid 64bit warnings when using pointers as entropy for temp namesRich Felker2011-06-132-2/+4

* fix sigset macro for 64-bit systems (<< was overflowing due to wrong type)Rich Felker2011-06-131-1/+1
|
* remove all .size and .type directives for functions from the asmRich Felker2011-06-1318-52/+0
| | | | | these are useless and have caused problems for users trying to build with non-gnu tools like tcc's assembler.
* remove old useless timezone.s file (unused)Rich Felker2011-06-131-27/+0

* fix fesetround - it was writing to status word instead of control wordRich Felker2011-06-131-3/+8
|
* floating point environment, untestedRich Felker2011-06-126-0/+144
| | | | | | | | | | at present the i386 code does not support sse floating point, which is not part of the standard i386 abi. while it may be desirable to support it later, doing so will reduce performance and require some tricks to probe if sse support is present. this first commit is i386-only, but it should be trivial to port the asm to x86_64.
* malloc: cast size down to int in bin_index functionsRich Felker2011-06-121-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | even if size_t was 32-bit already, the fact that the value was unsigned and that gcc is too stupid to figure out it would be positive as a signed quantity (due to the immediately-prior arithmetic and conditionals) results in gcc compiling the integer-to-float conversion as zero extension to 64 bits followed by an "fildll" (64 bit) instruction rather than a simple "fildl" (32 bit) instruction on x86. reportedly fildll is very slow on certain p4-class machines; even if not, the new code is slightly smaller.
* another return value fix for mktemp...Rich Felker2011-06-121-1/+2

* add netpacket/packet.hRich Felker2011-06-091-0/+44
| | | | | looks like busybox is going to want it, and apparently some other low-level network software does too...

* mq names without leading / have impl-def behavior; allowing them is easierRich Felker2011-06-072-9/+2

* define MQ_PRIO_MAXRich Felker2011-06-072-1/+2
|
* use __WCHAR_TYPE__ on i386 if it is definedRich Felker2011-06-071-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | unfortunately traditional i386 practice was to use "long" rather than "int" for wchar_t, despite the latter being much more natural and logical. we followed this practice, but it seems some compilers (clang and maybe certain gcc builds or others too..?) have switched to using int, resulting in spurious pointer type mismatches when L"..." wide strings are used. the best solution I could find is to use the compiler's definition of wchar_t if it exists, and otherwise fallback to the traditional definition. there's no point in duplicating this approach on 64-bit archs, as their only 32-bit type is int.
* mq send/recv functions are cancellation pointsRich Felker2011-06-072-2/+2

* implement mq_notifyRich Felker2011-06-071-2/+65

* add support for POSIX message queues, except mq_notifyRich Felker2011-06-0711-0/+133
|
* use __attribute__((const)) for errno and pthread_self if __GNUC__ is definedRich Felker2011-06-062-0/+6
| | | | | this is not too ugly and should result in significant code size and performance improvements for many programs.
* use volatile pointers for intentional-crash code.Rich Felker2011-06-062-3/+3
|
* fix handling of d_name in struct direntRich Felker2011-06-063-8/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | basically there are 3 choices for how to implement this variable-size string member: 1. C99 flexible array member: breaks using dirent.h with pre-C99 compiler. 2. old way: length-1 string: generates array bounds warnings in caller. 3. new way: length-NAME_MAX string. no problems, simplifies all code. of course the usable part in the pointer returned by readdir might be shorter than NAME_MAX+1 bytes, but that is allowed by the standard and doesn't hurt anything.
* safety fix for glob's vla usage: disallow patterns longer than PATH_MAXRich Felker2011-06-051-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | this actually inadvertently disallows some valid patterns with redundant / or * characters, but it's better than allowing unbounded vla allocation. eventually i'll write code to move the pattern to the stack and eliminate redundancy to ensure that it fits in PATH_MAX at the beginning of glob. this would also allow it to be modified in place for passing to fnmatch rather than copied at each level of recursion.
* eliminate (harmless in this case) vla usage in fnmatch.cRich Felker2011-06-051-1/+1

* missing prototypes for mbsnrtowcs and wcsnrtombsRich Felker2011-05-301-0/+6
|
* implement pthread_[sg]etconcurrency.Rich Felker2011-05-303-0/+18
| | | | | | there is a resource limit of 0 bits to store the concurrency level requested. thus any positive level exceeds a resource limit, resulting in EAGAIN. :-)

* initial implementation of posix_spawnRich Felker2011-05-2813-0/+218

* fix the last known rounding bug in floating point printingRich Felker2011-05-111-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | the observed symptom was that the code was incorrectly rounding up 1.0625 to 1.063 despite the rounding mode being round-to-nearest with ties broken by rounding to even last place. however, the code was just not right in many respects, and i'm surprised it worked as well as it did. this time i tested the values that end up in the variables round, small, and the expression round+small, and all look good.
* eventfd syscall wrapper and read/write wrappersRich Felker2011-05-084-0/+46

* optimize out useless default-attribute object in pthread_createRich Felker2011-05-071-7/+7
|
* optimize compound-literal sigset_t's not to contain useless hurd bitsRich Felker2011-05-073-5/+7
|
* overhaul implementation-internal signal protectionsRich Felker2011-05-0713-50/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | the new approach relies on the fact that the only ways to create sigset_t objects without invoking UB are to use the sig*set() functions, or from the masks returned by sigprocmask, sigaction, etc. or in the ucontext_t argument to a signal handler. thus, as long as sigfillset and sigaddset avoid adding the "protected" signals, there is no way the application will ever obtain a sigset_t including these bits, and thus no need to add the overhead of checking/clearing them when sigprocmask or sigaction is called. note that the old code actually *failed* to remove the bits from sa_mask when sigaction was called. the new implementations are also significantly smaller, simpler, and faster due to ignoring the useless "GNU HURD signals" 65-1024, which are not used and, if there's any sanity in the world, never will be used.
* reduce some ridiculously large spin countsRich Felker2011-05-062-2/+2
| | | | | | these should be tweaked according to testing. offhand i know 1000 is too low and 5000 is likely to be sufficiently high. consider trying to add futexes to file locking, too...
