* fix typo in comment in __randnameRich Felker2013-09-041-1/+1

* fix mips-specific bug in synccall (too little space for signal mask)Rich Felker2013-09-021-5/+3
| | | | | switch to the new __block_all_sigs/__restore_sigs internal API to clean up the code too.
* in synccall, ignore the signal before any threads' signal handlers returnRich Felker2013-09-021-4/+4
| | | | | | this protects against deadlock from spurious signals (e.g. sent by another process) arriving after the controlling thread releases the other threads from the sync operation.
* fix invalid pointer in synccall (multithread setuid, etc.)Rich Felker2013-09-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | the head pointer was not being reset between calls to synccall, so any use of this interface more than once would build the linked list incorrectly, keeping the (now invalid) list nodes from the previous call.
* fix special-case breakage in popen due to reversed argument orderRich Felker2013-09-011-1/+1
|
* add workaround header for wait.h remapping to sys/wait.hRich Felker2013-09-011-0/+2
|
* fix missing return value warning in faccessat, minor cleanupRich Felker2013-08-311-1/+1
| | | | | clone will pass the return value of the start function to SYS_exit anyway; there's no need to call the syscall directly.
* fix invalid %m format crash in wide scanf variantsRich Felker2013-08-311-0/+2
| | | | the wide variant was missed in the previous commit.
* avoid crash in scanf when invalid %m format is encounteredRich Felker2013-08-311-0/+2
| | | | | | | invalid format strings invoke undefined behavior, so this is not a conformance issue, but it's nicer for scanf to report the error safely instead of calling free on a potentially-uninitialized pointer or a pointer to memory belonging to the caller.
* remove incorrect cancellation points from realpathRich Felker2013-08-311-4/+4
|
* debloat realpath's allocation strategyRich Felker2013-08-311-12/+6
| | | | | | | | | rather than allocating a PATH_MAX-sized buffer when the caller does not provide an output buffer, work first with a PATH_MAX-sized temp buffer with automatic storage, and either copy it to the caller's buffer or strdup it on success. this not only avoids massive memory waste, but also avoids pulling in free (and thus the full malloc implementation) unnecessarily in static programs.
* make realpath use O_PATH when opening the fileRich Felker2013-08-311-1/+1
| | | | | | this avoids failure if the file is not readable and avoids odd behavior for device nodes, etc. on old kernels that lack O_PATH, the old behavior (O_RDONLY) will naturally happen as the fallback.
* fix regression in creation of ldso symlinkRich Felker2013-08-311-1/+1
| | | | DESTDIR was wrongly included in the symlink contents.
* fix breakage in synccall due to incorrect signal restoration in sigqueueRich Felker2013-08-311-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | commit 07827d1a82fb33262f686eda959857f0d28cd8fa seems to have introduced this issue. sigqueue is called from the synccall core, at which time, even implementation-internal signals are blocked. however, pthread_sigmask removes the implementation-internal signals from the old mask before returning, so that a process which began life with them blocked will not be able to save a signal mask that has them blocked, possibly causing them to become re-blocked later. however, this was causing sigqueue to unblock the implementation-internal signals during synccall, leading to deadlock.

* only expose struct tcphdr under _GNU_SOURCERich Felker2013-08-301-1/+3
| | | | | | | | the BSD and GNU versions of this structure differ, so exposing it in the default _BSD_SOURCE profile is possibly problematic. both versions could be simultaneously supported with anonymous unions if needed in the future, but for now, just omitting it except under _GNU_SOURCE should be safe.
* add struct tcphdr in netinet/tcp.hRich Felker2013-08-301-0/+33
|
* remove -Wcast-align from --enable-warningsRich Felker2013-08-281-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | I originally added this warning option based on a misunderstanding of how it works. it does not warn whenever the destination of the cast has stricter alignment; it only warns in cases where misaligned dereference could lead to a fault. thus, it's essentially a no-op for i386, which had me wrongly believing the code was clean for this warning level. on other archs, numerous diagnostic messages are produced, and all of them are false-positives, so it's better just not to use it.
* optimized C memcpyRich Felker2013-08-281-16/+111
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | unlike the old C memcpy, this version handles word-at-a-time reads and writes even for misaligned copies. it does not require that the cpu support misaligned accesses; instead, it performs bit shifts to realign the bytes for the destination. essentially, this is the C version of the ARM assembly language memcpy. the ideas are all the same, and it should perform well on any arch with a decent number of general-purpose registers that has a barrel shift operation. since the barrel shifter is an optional cpu feature on microblaze, it may be desirable to provide an alternate asm implementation on microblaze, but otherwise the C code provides a competitive implementation for "generic risc-y" cpu archs that should alleviate the urgent need for arch-specific memcpy asm.
* stdbool.h should define __bool_true_false_are_defined even for C++Rich Felker2013-08-281-2/+2
| | | | | | | | while the incorporation of this requirement from C99 into C++11 was likely an accident, some software expects it to be defined, and it doesn't hurt. if the requirement is removed, then presumably __bool_true_false_are_defined would just be in the implementation namespace and thus defining it would still be legal.
* fix invalid instruction mnemonics in powerpc fenv asmRich Felker2013-08-271-3/+3
| | | | | there is no non-dot version of the andis instruction, but there's no harm in updating the flags anyway, so just use the dot version.
* optimized C memsetRich Felker2013-08-271-12/+77
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | this version of memset is optimized both for small and large values of n, and makes no misaligned writes, so it is usable (and near-optimal) on all archs. it is capable of filling up to 52 or 56 bytes without entering a loop and with at most 7 branches, all of which can be fully predicted if memset is called multiple times with the same size. it also uses the attribute extension to inform the compiler that it is violating the aliasing rules, unlike the previous code which simply assumed it was safe to violate the aliasing rules since translation unit boundaries hide the violations from the compiler. for non-GNUC compilers, 100% portable fallback code in the form of a naive loop is provided. I intend to eventually apply this approach to all of the string/memory functions which are doing word-at-a-time accesses.
* add attribute((may_alias)) checking in configureRich Felker2013-08-271-0/+21
| | | | | | this will be needed for upcoming commits to the string/mem functions to correct their unannounced use of aliasing violations for word-at-a-time search, fill, and copy operations.
* add the %s (seconds since the epoch) format to strftimeRich Felker2013-08-251-0/+4
| | | | | | this is a nonstandard extension but will be required in the next version of POSIX, and it's widely used/useful in shell scripts utilizing the date utility.
* fix strftime regression in %e formatRich Felker2013-08-241-2/+2
| | | | %e pads with spaces instead of zeros.
* properly fill in tzname[] for old (pre-64-bit-format) zoneinfo filesRich Felker2013-08-241-1/+22
| | | | | in this case, the first standard-time and first daylight-time rules should be taken as the "default" ones to expose.
* minor fix to tz name checkingRich Felker2013-08-241-2/+2
| | | | | if a zoneinfo file is not (or is no longer) in use, don't check the abbrevs pointers, which may be invalid.
* fix strftime handling of time zone dataRich Felker2013-08-244-8/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | this may need further revision in the future, since POSIX is rather unclear on the requirements, and is designed around the assumption of POSIX TZ specifiers which are not sufficiently powerful to represent real-world timezones (this is why zoneinfo support was added). the basic issue is that strftime gets the string and numeric offset for the timezone from the extra fields in struct tm, which are initialized when calling localtime/gmtime/etc. however, a conforming application might have created its own struct tm without initializing these fields, in which case using __tm_zone (a pointer) could crash. other zoneinfo-based implementations simply check for a null pointer, but otherwise can still crash of the field contains junk. simply ignoring __tm_zone and using tzname[] would "work" but would give incorrect results in time zones with more complex rules. I feel like this would lower the quality of implementation. instead, simply validate __tm_zone: unless it points to one of the zone name strings managed by the timezone system, assume it's invalid. this commit also fixes several other minor bugs with formatting: tm_isdst being negative is required to suppress printing of the zone formats, and %z was using the wrong format specifiers since the type of val was changed, resulting in bogus output.
* make dlopen honor the rpath of the main programRich Felker2013-08-231-1/+1
| | | | | | this seems to match what other systems do, and seems useful for programs that have their libraries and plugins stored relative to the executable.
* fix mishandling of empty or blank TZ environment variableRich Felker2013-08-231-1/+1
| | | | | | the empty TZ string was matching equal to the initial value of the cached TZ name, thus causing do_tzset never to run and never to initialize the time zone data.
* fix regression in dn_expand/reverse dnsRich Felker2013-08-231-1/+1
| | | | | | off-by-one error copying the name components was yielding junk at the beginning and truncating one character at the end (of every component).
* fix bugs in $ORIGIN handlingRich Felker2013-08-231-3/+9
| | | | | | | | 1. an occurrence of ${ORIGIN} before $ORIGIN would be ignored due to the strstr logic. (note that rpath contains multiple :-delimited paths to be searched.) 2. data read by readlink was not null-terminated.
* use AT_EXECFN, if available, for dynamic linker to identify main programRich Felker2013-08-231-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | fallback to argv[0] as before. unlike argv[0], AT_EXECFN was a valid (but possibly relative) pathname for the new program image at the time the execve syscall was made. as a special case, ignore AT_EXECFN if it begins with "/proc/", in order not to give bogus (and possibly harmful) results when fexecve was used.
* add rpath $ORIGIN processing to dynamic linkerRich Felker2013-08-231-3/+59
|
* add recursive rpath support to dynamic linkerRich Felker2013-08-231-12/+13
| | | | | | | | | | previously, rpath was only honored for direct dependencies. in other words, if A depends on B and B depends on C, only B's rpath (if any), not A's rpath, was being searched for C. this limitation made rpath-based deployment difficult in the presence of multiple levels of library dependency. at present, $ORIGIN processing in rpath is still unsupported.
* fix missing string.h in strftime.c (needed by new strftime code)Rich Felker2013-08-231-0/+1
| | | | this bug was masked by local experimental CFLAGS in my config.mak.
* fix some documentation typosRich Felker2013-08-222-2/+2
|
* add strftime and wcsftime field widthsRich Felker2013-08-222-24/+81
| | | | | | | | | at present, since POSIX requires %F to behave as %+4Y-%m-%d and ISO C requires %F to behave as %Y-%m-%d, the default behavior for %Y has been changed to match %+4Y. this seems to be the only way to conform to the requirements of both standards, and it does not affect years prior to the year 10000. depending on the outcome of interpretations from the standards bodies, this may be adjusted at some point.
* simplify strftime and fix integer overflowsRich Felker2013-08-221-28/+12
| | | | | | | | | | use a long long value so that even with offsets, values cannot overflow. instead of using different format strings for different numeric formats, simply use a per-format width and %0*lld for all of them. this width specifier is not for use with strftime field widths; that will be a separate step in the caller.
* strftime cleanup: avoid recomputing strlen when it's knownRich Felker2013-08-221-10/+16
|
* more strftime refactoringRich Felker2013-08-221-23/+25
| | | | | | | make __strftime_fmt_1 return a string (possibly in the caller-provided temp buffer) rather than writing into the output buffer. this approach makes more sense when padding to a minimum field width might be required, and it's also closer to what wcsftime wants.
* begin refactoring strftime to make adding field widths easierRich Felker2013-08-221-151/+161
|
* add SUN_LEN macro to sys/un.h under appropriate feature testsRich Felker2013-08-211-0/+19
| | | | | this is ugly and useless, but it seems to be the least-ugly way to provide it...
* unbreak vwarn: print ": " before errno messageRich Felker2013-08-211-2/+5
| | | | | patch by Strake. this seems to be a regression caused by fixing the behavior of perror("") to match perror(0) at some point in the past.
* fix two bugs in sed code configure uses to save command lineRich Felker2013-08-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | one place where semicolon (non-portable) was still used in place of separate -e options (copied over from an old version of this code), and use of a literal slash in the bracket expression for the final command, despite slash being used as the delimiter for the s command.
* re-add logic for ignoring failure of ld.so symlink installationRich Felker2013-08-181-1/+1
| | | | this was inadvertently removed when switching to the new install.sh.
* fix fenv exception functions to mask their argumentSzabolcs Nagy2013-08-188-18/+55
| | | | | | | | | | | fesetround.c is a wrapper to do the arch independent argument check (on archs where rounding mode is not stored in 2 bits __fesetround still has to check its arguments) on powerpc fe*except functions do not accept the extra invalid flags of its fpscr register the useless FENV_ACCESS pragma was removed from feupdateenv
* optimize x86 feclearexcept: only use save/restore x87 fenv if neededSzabolcs Nagy2013-08-182-27/+38
| | | | | | | the x87 exception summary (ES) and stack fault (SF) flags may be spuriously cleared by feclearexcept using the fnclex instruction, but these flags are not observable through libc hence maintaining their state is not critical.
* remove the __mxcsr member from fenv_t on i386 to follow the glibc abiSzabolcs Nagy2013-08-181-1/+0
| | | | | | in the previous commit sse fenv support was added, but there is no need to save mxcsr (sse fenv register) so fix the abi incompatibility with glibc.
