* bits/syscall.h: add process_madvise from linux v5.10Szabolcs Nagy2021-02-151-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | mainly added to linux to allow a central process management service in android to give MADV_COLD|PAGEOUT hints for other processes, see linux commit ecb8ac8b1f146915aa6b96449b66dd48984caacc mm/madvise: introduce process_madvise() syscall: an external memory hinting API
* bits/syscall.h: add __NR_close_range from linux v5.9Szabolcs Nagy2020-11-291-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | see linux commit 9b4feb630e8e9801603f3cab3a36369e3c1cf88d arch: wire-up close_range() linux commit 278a5fbaed89dacd04e9d052f4594ffd0e0585de open: add close_range()
* bits/syscall.h: add __NR_faccessat2 from linux v5.8Szabolcs Nagy2020-09-091-0/+1
| | | | | | | | the linux faccessat syscall lacks a flag argument that is necessary to implement the posix api, see linux commit c8ffd8bcdd28296a198f237cc595148a8d4adfbe vfs: add faccessat2 syscall
* add pidfd_getfd and openat2 syscall numbers from linux v5.6Szabolcs Nagy2020-09-091-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | also added clone3 on sh and m68k, on sh it's still missing (not yet wired up), but reserved so safe to add. see linux commit fddb5d430ad9fa91b49b1d34d0202ffe2fa0e179 open: introduce openat2(2) syscall linux commit 9a2cef09c801de54feecd912303ace5c27237f12 arch: wire up pidfd_getfd syscall linux commit 8649c322f75c96e7ced2fec201e123b2b073bf09 pid: Implement pidfd_getfd syscall linux commit e8bb2a2a1d51511e6b3f7e08125d52ec73c11139 m68k: Wire up clone3() syscall
* remove legacy time32 timer[fd] syscalls from public syscall.hRich Felker2020-02-051-4/+4
| | | | | | | this extends commit 5a105f19b5aae79dd302899e634b6b18b3dcd0d6, removing timer[fd]_settime and timer[fd]_gettime. the timerfd ones are likely to have been used in software that started using them before it could rely on libc exposing functions.
* remove further legacy time32 clock syscalls from public syscall.hRich Felker2020-02-051-4/+4
| | | | | this extends commit 5a105f19b5aae79dd302899e634b6b18b3dcd0d6, removing clock_settime, clock_getres, clock_nanosleep, and settimeofday.
* remove legacy clock_gettime and gettimeofday from public syscall.hRich Felker2020-01-301-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | some nontrivial number of applications have historically performed direct syscalls for these operations rather than using the public functions. such usage is invalid now that time_t is 64-bit and these syscalls no longer match the types they are used with, and it was already harmful before (by suppressing use of vdso). since syscall() has no type safety, incorrect usage of these syscalls can't be caught at compile-time. so, without manually inspecting or running additional tools to check sources, the risk of such errors slipping through is high. this patch renames the syscalls on 32-bit archs to clock_gettime32 and gettimeofday_time32, so that applications using the original names will fail to build without being fixed. note that there are a number of other syscalls that may also be unsafe to use directly after the time64 switchover, but (1) these are the main two that seem to be in widespread use, and (2) most of the others continue to have valid usage with a null timeval/timespec argument, as the argument is an optional timeout or similar.
* add clone3 syscall number from linux v5.3Szabolcs Nagy2019-12-301-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | the syscall number is reserved on all targets, but it is not wired up on all targets, see linux commit 8f6ccf6159aed1f04c6d179f61f6fb2691261e84 Merge tag 'clone3-v5.3' of ... brauner/linux linux commit 8f3220a806545442f6f26195bc491520f5276e7c arch: wire-up clone3() syscall linux commit 7f192e3cd316ba58c88dfa26796cf77789dd9872 fork: add clone3
* add pidfd_open syscall number from linux v5.3Szabolcs Nagy2019-12-301-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | see linux commit 7615d9e1780e26e0178c93c55b73309a5dc093d7 arch: wire-up pidfd_open() linux commit 32fcb426ec001cb6d5a4a195091a8486ea77e2df pid: add pidfd_open()
* move time_t and suseconds_t definitions to common alltypes.h.inRich Felker2019-11-021-3/+0
| | | | | | | now that all 32-bit archs have 64-bit time_t (and suseconds_t), the arch-provided _Int64 macro (long or long long, as appropriate) can be used to define them, and arch-specific definitions are no longer needed.
* move time64 ioctl numbers to generic bits/ioctl.hRich Felker2019-11-021-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | now that all 32-bit archs have 64-bit time types, the values for the time-related ioctls can be shared. the mechanism for this is an arch/generic version of the bits header. archs which don't use the generic header still need to duplicate the definitions. x32, which does not use the new time64 values of the macros, already has its own overrides, so this commit does not affect it.
* move time64 socket options from arch bits to top-level sys/socket.hRich Felker2019-11-021-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | now that all 32-bit archs have 64-bit time types, the values for the time-related socket option macros can be treated as universal for 32-bit archs. the sys/socket.h mechanism for this predates arch/generic and is instead in the top-level header. x32, which does not use the new time64 values of the macros, already has its own overrides, so this commit does not affect it.
* switch all existing 32-bit archs to 64-bit time_tRich Felker2019-11-028-20/+43
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | this commit preserves ABI fully for existing interface boundaries between libc and libc consumers (applications or libraries), by retaining existing symbol names for the legacy 32-bit interfaces and redirecting sources compiled against the new headers to alternate symbol names. this does not necessarily, however, preserve the pairwise ABI of libc consumers with one another; where they use time_t-derived types in their interfaces with one another, it may be necessary to synchronize updates with each other. the intent is that ABI resulting from this commit already be stable and permanent, but it will not be officially so until a release is made. changes to some header-defined types that do not play any role in the ABI between libc and its consumers may still be subject to change. mechanically, the changes made by this commit for each 32-bit arch are as follows: - _REDIR_TIME64 is defined to activate the symbol redirections in public headers - COMPAT_SRC_DIRS is defined in arch.mak to activate build of ABI compat shims to serve as definitions for the original symbol names - time_t and suseconds_t definitions are changed to long long (64-bit) - IPC_STAT definition is changed to add the IPC_TIME64 bit (0x100), triggering conversion of semid_ds, shmid_ds, and msqid_ds split low/high time bits into new time_t members - structs semid_ds, shmid_ds, msqid_ds, and stat are modified to add new 64-bit time_t/timespec members at the end, maintaining existing layout of other members. - socket options (SO_*) and ioctl (sockios) command macros are redefined to use the kernel's "_NEW" values. in addition, on archs where vdso clock_gettime is used, the VDSO_CGT_SYM macro definition in syscall_arch.h is changed to use a new time64 vdso function if available, and a new VDSO_CGT32_SYM macro is added for use as fallback on kernels lacking time64.
* move pthread types out of per-arch alltypes.hRich Felker2019-10-171-8/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | policy has long been that these definitions are purely a function of whether long/pointer is 32- or 64-bit, and that they are not allowed to vary per-arch. move the definition to the shared alltypes.h.in fragment, using integer constant expressions in terms of sizeof to vary the array dimensions appropriately. I'm not sure whether this is more or less ugly than using preprocessor conditionals and two sets of definitions here, but either way is a lot less ugly than repeating the same thing for every arch.
* define LONG_MAX via arch alltypes.h, strip down bits/limits.hRich Felker2019-10-172-7/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | LLONG_MAX is uniform for all archs we support and plenty of header and code level logic assumes it is, so it does not make sense for limits.h bits mechanism to pretend it's variable. LONG_BIT can be defined in terms of LONG_MAX; there's no reason to put it in bits. by moving LONG_MAX definition to __LONG_MAX in alltypes.h and moving LLONG_MAX out of bits, there are now no plain-C limits that are defined in the bits header, so the bits header only needs to be included in the POSIX or extended profiles. this allows the feature test macro logic to be removed from the bits header, facilitating a long-term goal of getting such logic out of bits. having __LONG_MAX in alltypes.h will allow further generalization of headers. archs without a constant PAGESIZE no longer need bits/limits.h at all.
* move __BYTE_ORDER definition to alltypes.hRich Felker2019-10-172-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | this change is motivated by the intersection of several factors. presently, despite being a nonstandard header, endian.h is exposing the unprefixed byte order macros and functions only if _BSD_SOURCE or _GNU_SOURCE is defined. this is to accommodate use of endian.h from other headers, including bits headers, which need to define structure layout in terms of endianness. with time64 switch-over, even more headers will need to do this. at the same time, the resolution of Austin Group issue 162 makes endian.h a standard header for POSIX-future, requiring that it expose the unprefixed macros and the functions even in standards-conforming profiles. changes to meet this new requirement would break existing internal usage of endian.h by causing it to violate namespace where it's used. instead, have the arch's alltypes.h define __BYTE_ORDER, either as a fixed constant or depending on the right arch-specific predefined macros for determining endianness. explicit literals 1234 and 4321 are used instead of __LITTLE_ENDIAN and __BIG_ENDIAN so that there's no danger of getting the wrong result if a macro is undefined and implicitly evaluates to 0 at the preprocessor level. the powerpc (32-bit) bits/endian.h being removed had logic for varying endianness, but our powerpc arch has never supported that and has always been big-endian-only. this logic is not carried over to the new __BYTE_ORDER definition in alltypes.h.
* remove per-arch definitions for va_listRich Felker2019-10-171-3/+0
| | | | | | | now that commit f7f1079796abc6f97c69521d2334e9c7d3945dd8 removed the legacy i386 conditional definition, va_list is in no way arch-specific, and has no reason to be in the future. move it to the shared part of alltypes.h.in
* remove i386 support for legacy struct __va_listRich Felker2019-10-171-5/+0
| | | | | | | | commit ffaaa6d230512f3a7f3d040b943517728f3dc3cf removed the corresponding stdarg.h support for compilers without va_list builtins, but failed to remove the alternate type definition, leaving incorrect va_list definitions in place with compilers that don't define __GNUC__ with a value >= 3.
* add new syscall numbers from linux v5.2Szabolcs Nagy2019-09-111-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | new mount api syscalls were added, same numers on all targets, see linux commit a07b20004793d8926f78d63eb5980559f7813404 vfs: syscall: Add open_tree(2) to reference or clone a mount linux commit 2db154b3ea8e14b04fee23e3fdfd5e9d17fbc6ae vfs: syscall: Add move_mount(2) to move mounts around linux commit 24dcb3d90a1f67fe08c68a004af37df059d74005 vfs: syscall: Add fsopen() to prepare for superblock creation linux commit ecdab150fddb42fe6a739335257949220033b782 vfs: syscall: Add fsconfig() for configuring and managing a context linux commit 93766fbd2696c2c4453dd8e1070977e9cd4e6b6d vfs: syscall: Add fsmount() to create a mount for a superblock linux commit cf3cba4a429be43e5527a3f78859b1bfd9ebc5fb vfs: syscall: Add fspick() to select a superblock for reconfiguration linux commit 9c8ad7a2ff0bfe58f019ec0abc1fb965114dde7d uapi, x86: Fix the syscall numbering of the mount API syscalls [ver #2] linux commit d8076bdb56af5e5918376cd1573a6b0007fc1a89 uapi: Wire up the mount API syscalls on non-x86 arches [ver #2]
* move IPC_STAT definition to a new bits/ipcstat.h fileRich Felker2019-08-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | otherwise, 32-bit archs that could otherwise share the generic bits/ipc.h would need to duplicate the struct ipc_perm definition, obscuring the fact that it's the same. sysvipc is not widely used and these headers are not commonly included, so there is no performance gain to be had by limiting the number of indirectly included files here. files with the existing time32 definition of IPC_STAT are added to all current 32-bit archs now, so that when it's changed the change will show up as a change rather than addition of a new file where it's less obvious that the value is changing vs the generic one that was used before.

* collapse out byte order conditions in bits/sem.h for fixed-endian archsRich Felker2019-07-291-5/+0
| | | | | having preprocessor conditionals on byte order in the bits headers for fixed-endian archs is confusing at best. remove them.

* duplicate generic bits/shm.h for each arch using it, in prep to changeRich Felker2019-07-291-0/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | there are more archs sharing the generic 64-bit version of the struct, which is uniform and much more reasonable, than sharing the current "generic" one, and depending on how time64 sysvipc is done for 32-bit archs, even more may be sharing the "64-bit version" in the future. so, duplicate the current generic to all archs using it (arm, i386, m68k, microblaze, or1k) so that the generic can be changed freely. this is recorded as its own commit mainly as a hint to git tooling, to assist in copy/move tracking.
* add new syscall numbers from linux v5.1Szabolcs Nagy2019-07-011-0/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | syscall numbers are now synced up across targets (starting from 403 the numbers are the same on all targets other than an arch specific offset) IPC syscalls sem*, shm*, msg* got added where they were missing (except for semop: only semtimedop got added), the new semctl, shmctl, msgctl imply IPC_64, see linux commit 0d6040d4681735dfc47565de288525de405a5c99 arch: add split IPC system calls where needed new 64bit time_t syscall variants got added on 32bit targets, see linux commit 48166e6ea47d23984f0b481ca199250e1ce0730a y2038: add 64-bit time_t syscalls to all 32-bit architectures new async io syscalls got added, see linux commit 2b188cc1bb857a9d4701ae59aa7768b5124e262e Add io_uring IO interface linux commit edafccee56ff31678a091ddb7219aba9b28bc3cb io_uring: add support for pre-mapped user IO buffers a new syscall got added that uses the fd of /proc/<pid> as a stable handle for processes: allows sending signals without pid reuse issues, intended to eventually replace rt_sigqueueinfo, kill, tgkill and rt_tgsigqueueinfo, see linux commit 3eb39f47934f9d5a3027fe00d906a45fe3a15fad signal: add pidfd_send_signal() syscall on some targets (arm, m68k, s390x, sh) some previously missing syscall numbers got added as well.
* add io_pgetevents and rseq syscall numbers from linux v4.18Szabolcs Nagy2018-12-091-0/+2
| | | | | | | | io_pgetevents is new in linux commit 7a074e96dee62586c935c80cecd931431bfdd0be rseq is new in linux commit d7822b1e24f2df5df98c76f0e94a5416349ff759
* add support for arch-specific ptrace command macrosSzabolcs Nagy2018-07-171-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sys/ptrace.h is target specific, use bits/ptrace.h to add target specific macro definitions. these macros are kept in the generic sys/ptrace.h even though some targets don't support them: PTRACE_GETREGS PTRACE_SETREGS PTRACE_GETFPREGS PTRACE_SETFPREGS PTRACE_GETFPXREGS PTRACE_SETFPXREGS so no macro definition got removed in this patch on any target. only s390x has a numerically conflicting macro definition (PTRACE_SINGLEBLOCK). the PT_ aliases follow glibc headers, otherwise the definitions come from linux uapi headers except ones that are skipped in glibc and there is no real kernel support (s390x PTRACE_*_AREA) or need special type definitions (mips PTRACE_*_WATCH_*) or only relevant for linux 2.4 compatibility (PTRACE_OLDSETOPTIONS).
* use PAGESIZE rather than PAGE_SIZE in user.h bitsRich Felker2018-03-101-2/+2
| | | | align with commit c9c2cd3e6955cb1d57b8be01d4b072bf44058762.
* reverse definition dependency between PAGESIZE and PAGE_SIZERich Felker2018-03-101-1/+1
| | | | | | PAGESIZE is actually the version defined in POSIX base, with PAGE_SIZE being in the XSI option. use PAGESIZE as the underlying definition to facilitate making exposure of PAGE_SIZE conditional.
* i386: add arch_prctl syscall number from linux v4.12Szabolcs Nagy2017-11-051-0/+1
| | | | | syscall for i386 compat mode on x86_64 for non-x86_64 prctls. new in linux commit 79170fda313ed5be2394f87aa2a00d597f8ed4a1
* add statx syscall numbers from linux v4.11Szabolcs Nagy2017-11-051-0/+1
| | | | | statx was added in linux commit a528d35e8bfcc521d7cb70aaf03e1bd296c8493f (there is no libc wrapper yet and microblaze and sh misses the number).
* make syscall.h consistent with linuxSzabolcs Nagy2017-09-061-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | most of the found naming differences don't matter to musl, because internally it unifies the syscall names that vary across targets, but for external code the names should match the kernel uapi. aarch64: __NR_fstatat is called __NR_newfstatat in linux. __NR_or1k_atomic got mistakenly copied from or1k. arm: __NR_arm_sync_file_range is an alias for __NR_sync_file_range2 __NR_fadvise64_64 is called __NR_arm_fadvise64_64 in linux, the old non-arm name is kept too, it should not cause issues. (powerpc has similar nonstandard fadvise and it uses the normal name.) i386: __NR_madvise1 was removed from linux in commit 303395ac3bf3e2cb488435537d416bc840438fcb 2011-11-11 microblaze: __NR_fadvise, __NR_fstatat, __NR_pread, __NR_pwrite had different name in linux. mips: __NR_fadvise, __NR_fstatat, __NR_pread, __NR_pwrite, __NR_select had different name in linux. mipsn32: __NR_fstatat is called __NR_newfstatat in linux. or1k: __NR__llseek is called __NR_llseek in linux. the old name is kept too because that's the name musl uses internally. powerpc: __NR_{get,set}res{gid,uid}32 was never present in powerpc linux. __NR_timerfd was briefly defined in linux but then got renamed.
* reduce impact of REG_* namespace pollution in x86[_64] signal.hRich Felker2017-01-041-19/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | when _GNU_SOURCE is defined, which is always the case when compiling c++ with gcc, these macros for the the indices in gregset_t are exposed and likely to clash with applications. by using enum constants rather than macros defined with integer literals, we can make the clash slightly less likely to break software. the macros are still defined in case anything checks for them with #ifdef, but they're defined to expand to themselves so that non-file-scope (e.g. namespaced) identifiers by the same names still work. for the sake of avoiding mistakes, the changes were generated with sed via the command: sed -i -e 's/#define *\(REG_[A-Z_0-9]\{1,\}\) *\([0-9]\{1,\}\)'\ '/enum { \1 = \2 };\n#define \1 \1/' \ arch/i386/bits/signal.h arch/x86_64/bits/signal.h arch/x32/bits/signal.h
* add pkey_{mprotect,alloc,free} syscalls from linux v4.9Szabolcs Nagy2016-12-291-0/+3
| | | | | see linux commit e8c24d3a23a469f1f40d4de24d872ca7023ced0a and linux Documentation/x86/protection-keys.txt
* remove legacy i386 fallback stdarg implementation and frameworkRich Felker2016-12-151-9/+0
| | | | | | | | | this has been slated for removal for a long time. there is fundamentally no way to implement stdarg without compiler assistance; any attempt to do so has serious undefined behavior; its working depends not just (as a common misconception goes) on ABI, but also on assumptions about compiler code generation internal to a translation unit, which is not subject to external ABI constraints.
* make brace placement in public header typedef'd structs consistentRich Felker2016-07-031-4/+2
| | | | | | commit befa5866ee30d09c0c96e88af2eabff5911342ea performed this change for struct definitions that did not also involve typedef, but omitted the latter.
* make brace placement in public header struct definitions consistentRich Felker2016-07-032-6/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | placing the opening brace on the same line as the struct keyword/tag is the style I prefer and seems to be the prevailing practice in more recent additions. these changes were generated by the command: find include/ arch/*/bits -name '*.h' \ -exec sed -i '/^struct [^;{]*$/{N;s/\n/ /;}' {} + and subsequently checked by hand to ensure that the regex did not pick up any false positives.
* add preadv2 and pwritev2 syscall numbers for linux v4.6Szabolcs Nagy2016-06-091-0/+2
| | | | | | | | the syscalls take an additional flag argument, they were added in commit f17d8b35452cab31a70d224964cd583fb2845449 and a RWF_HIPRI priority hint flag was added to linux/fs.h in 97be7ebe53915af504fb491fb99f064c7cf3cb09. the syscall is not allocated for microblaze and sh yet.
* deduplicate __NR_* and SYS_* syscall number definitionsBobby Bingham2016-05-121-381/+0
|
* add copy_file_range syscall numbers from linux v4.5Szabolcs Nagy2016-03-191-0/+2
| | | | | | | it was introduced for offloading copying between regular files in linux commit 29732938a6289a15e907da234d6692a2ead71855 (microblaze and sh does not yet have the syscall number.)
* deduplicate bits/mman.hSzabolcs Nagy2016-03-181-59/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | currently five targets use the same mman.h constants and the rest share most constants too, so move them to sys/mman.h before the bits/mman.h include where the differences can be corrected by redefinition of the macros. this fixes two minor bugs: POSIX_MADV_DONTNEED was wrong on most targets (it should be the same as MADV_DONTNEED), and sh defined the x86-only MAP_32BIT mmap flag.
* deduplicate the bulk of the arch bits headersRich Felker2016-01-2712-630/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | all bits headers that were identical for a number of 'clean' archs are moved to the new arch/generic tree. in addition, a few headers that differed only cosmetically from the new generic version are removed. additional deduplication may be possible in mman.h and in several headers (limits.h, posix.h, stdint.h) that mostly depend on whether the arch is 32- or 64-bit, but they are left alone for now because greater gains are likely possible with more invasive changes to header logic, which is beyond the scope of this commit.
* add MCL_ONFAULT and MLOCK_ONFAULT mlockall and mlock2 flagsSzabolcs Nagy2016-01-261-0/+1
| | | | | | | | they lock faulted pages into memory (useful when a small part of a large mapped file needs efficient access), new in linux v4.4, commit b0f205c2a3082dd9081f9a94e50658c5fa906ff1 MLOCK_* is not in the POSIX reserved namespace for sys/mman.h
* add mlock2 syscall number from linux v4.4Szabolcs Nagy2016-01-261-0/+2

* add new membarrier, userfaultfd and switch_endian syscallsSzabolcs Nagy2016-01-261-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | new in linux v4.3 added for aarch64, arm, i386, mips, or1k, powerpc, x32 and x86_64. membarrier is a system wide memory barrier, moves most of the synchronization cost to one side, new in kernel commit 5b25b13ab08f616efd566347d809b4ece54570d1 userfaultfd is useful for qemu and is new in kernel commit 8d2afd96c20316d112e04d935d9e09150e988397 switch_endian is powerpc only for switching endianness, new in commit 529d235a0e190ded1d21ccc80a73e625ebcad09b
* add new i386 socket syscall numbersSzabolcs Nagy2016-01-261-0/+30
| | | | | | | | new in linux v4.3 commit 9dea5dc921b5f4045a18c63eb92e84dc274d17eb direct calls instead of socketcall allow better seccomp filtering. musl continues to use socketcalls internally on i386. (older kernels would need a fallback mechanism if the direct calls were used.)
* adjust i386 max_align_t definition to work around some broken compilersRich Felker2015-12-291-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | at least gcc 4.7 claims c++11 support but does not accept the alignas keyword, causing breakage when stddef.h is included in c++11 mode. instead, prefer using __attribute__((__aligned__)) on any compiler with GNU extensions, and only use the alignas keyword as a fallback for other C++ compilers. C code should not be affected by this patch.
* move O_PATH definition back to arch bitsRich Felker2015-04-011-0/+1
| | | | | | | while it's the same for all presently supported archs, it differs at least on sparc, and conceptually it's no less arch-specific than the other O_* macros. O_SEARCH and O_EXEC are still defined in terms of O_PATH in the main fcntl.h.
* fix MINSIGSTKSZ values for archs with large signal contextsRich Felker2015-03-181-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | the previous values (2k min and 8k default) were too small for some archs. aarch64 reserves 4k in the signal context for future extensions and requires about 4.5k total, and powerpc reportedly uses over 2k. the new minimums are chosen to fit the saved context and also allow a minimal signal handler to run. since the default (SIGSTKSZ) has always been 6k larger than the minimum, it is also increased to maintain the 6k usable by the signal handler. this happens to be able to store one pathname buffer and should be sufficient for calling any function in libc that doesn't involve conversion between floating point and decimal representations. x86 (both 32-bit and 64-bit variants) may also need a larger minimum (around 2.5k) in the future to support avx-512, but the values on these archs are left alone for now pending further analysis. the value for PTHREAD_STACK_MIN is not increased to match MINSIGSTKSZ at this time. this is so as not to preclude applications from using extremely small thread stacks when they know they will not be handling signals. unfortunately cancellation and multi-threaded set*id() use signals as an implementation detail and therefore require a stack large enough for a signal context, so applications which use extremely small thread stacks may still need to avoid using these features.
