* fix failure of wide printf/scanf functions to set wide orientationRich Felker2014-07-022-0/+3
| | | | | | in some cases, these functions internally call a byte-based input or output function before calling getwc/putwc, so they cannot rely on the latter to set the orientation.
* fix incorrect return value for fwide functionRich Felker2014-07-011-1/+2
| | | | | | when the orientation of the stream was already set, fwide was incorrectly returning its argument (the requested orientation) rather than the actual orientation of the stream.
* replace all remaining internal uses of pthread_self with __pthread_selfRich Felker2014-06-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | prior to version 1.1.0, the difference between pthread_self (the public function) and __pthread_self (the internal macro or inline function) was that the former would lazily initialize the thread pointer if it was not already initialized, whereas the latter would crash in this case. since lazy initialization is no longer supported, use of pthread_self no longer makes sense; it simply generates larger, slower code.
* add O_CLOEXEC fallback for open and related functionsRich Felker2014-06-062-0/+3
| | | | | | | since there is no easy way to detect whether open honored or ignored the O_CLOEXEC flag, the optimal solution to providing a fallback is simply to make the fcntl syscall to set the close-on-exec flag immediately after open returns.
* fix fd leak in tmpfile when the fdopen operation failsRich Felker2014-06-061-1/+2
| | | | | | | | this condition could only happen due to malloc failure. the fdopen operation is also moved to take place after the unlink to minimize the window during which a link to the file exists in the directory table.
* simplify vasprintf implementationRich Felker2014-06-041-14/+1
| | | | | | | | the old implementation preallocated a buffer in order to try to avoid calling vsnprintf more than once. not only did this potentially lead to memory fragmentation from trimming with realloc; it also pulled in realloc/free, which otherwise might not be needed in a static linked program.
* use cleaner code for handling float rounding in vfprintfSzabolcs Nagy2014-05-301-3/+1
| | | | | | | CONCAT(0x1p,LDBL_MANT_DIG) is not safe outside of libc, use 2/LDBL_EPSILON instead. fix was proposed by Morten Welinder.
* support linux kernel apis (new archs) with old syscalls removedRich Felker2014-05-295-2/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | such archs are expected to omit definitions of the SYS_* macros for syscalls their kernels lack from arch/$ARCH/bits/syscall.h. the preprocessor is then able to select the an appropriate implementation for affected functions. two basic strategies are used on a case-by-case basis: where the old syscalls correspond to deprecated library-level functions, the deprecated functions have been converted to wrappers for the modern function, and the modern function has fallback code (omitted at the preprocessor level on new archs) to make use of the old syscalls if the new syscall fails with ENOSYS. this also improves functionality on older kernels and eliminates the incentive to program with deprecated library-level functions for the sake of compatibility with older kernels. in other situations where the old syscalls correspond to library-level functions which are not deprecated but merely lack some new features, such as the *at functions, the old syscalls are still used on archs which support them. this may change at some point in the future if or when fallback code is added to the new functions to make them usable (possibly with reduced functionality) on old kernels.
* fix missing declaration of strcpy in implementation of tmpnamRich Felker2014-05-271-0/+1
|
* overhaul tmpfile, tmpnam, and tempnam functionsRich Felker2014-05-273-55/+48
| | | | | | | these all now use the shared __randname function internally, rather than duplicating logic for producing a random name. incorrect usage of the access syscall (which works with real uid/gid, not effective) has been removed, along with unnecessary heavy dependencies like snprintf.
* support kernels with no SYS_open syscall, only SYS_openatRich Felker2014-05-243-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | open is handled specially because it is used from so many places, in so many variants (2 or 3 arguments, setting errno or not, and cancellable or not). trying to do it as a function would not only increase bloat, but would also risk subtle breakage. this is the first step towards supporting "new" archs where linux lacks "old" syscalls.
* fix printf rounding with %g for some corner case midpointsRich Felker2014-04-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | the subsequent rounding code assumes the end pointer (z) accurately reflects the end of significance in the decimal expansion, but for certain large integers, spurious trailing zero slots were left behind when applying the binary exponent. issue reported by Morten Welinder; the analysis of the cause was performed by nsz, who also proposed this change.
* fix failure of printf %g to strip trailing zeros in some casesRich Felker2014-04-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | the code to strip trailing zeros was only looking in the last slot for up to 9 zeros, assuming that the rounding code had already removed fully-zero slots from the end. however, this ignored cases where the rounding code did not run at all, which occur when the value being printed is exactly representable in the requested precision. the simplest solution is to move the code that strips trailing zero slots to run unconditionally, immediately after rounding, rather than as the last step of rounding.
* fix carry into uninitialized slots during printf floating point roundingRich Felker2014-04-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | in cases where rounding caused a carry, the slot into which the carry was taking place was unconditionally treated as valid, despite the possibility that it could be a new slot prior to the beginning of the existing non-rounded number. in theory this could lead to unbounded runaway carry, but in order for that to happen, the whole uninitialized buffer would need to have been pre-filled with 32-bit integer values greater than or equal to 999999999. patch based on proposed fix by Morten Welinder, who also discovered and reported the bug.
* always initialize thread pointer at program startRich Felker2014-03-242-14/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | this is the first step in an overhaul aimed at greatly simplifying and optimizing everything dealing with thread-local state. previously, the thread pointer was initialized lazily on first access, or at program startup if stack protector was in use, or at certain random places where inconsistent state could be reached if it were not initialized early. while believed to be fully correct, the logic was fragile and non-obvious. in the first phase of the thread pointer overhaul, support is retained (and in some cases improved) for systems/situation where loading the thread pointer fails, e.g. old kernels. some notes on specific changes: - the confusing use of libc.main_thread as an indicator that the thread pointer is initialized is eliminated in favor of an explicit has_thread_pointer predicate. - sigaction no longer needs to ensure that the thread pointer is initialized before installing a signal handler (this was needed to prevent a situation where the signal handler caused the thread pointer to be initialized and the subsequent sigreturn cleared it again) but it still needs to ensure that implementation-internal thread-related signals are not blocked. - pthread tsd initialization for the main thread is deferred in a new manner to minimize bloat in the static-linked __init_tp code. - pthread_setcancelstate no longer needs special handling for the situation before the thread pointer is initialized. it simply fails on systems that cannot support a thread pointer, which are non-conforming anyway. - pthread_cleanup_push/pop now check for missing thread pointer and nop themselves out in this case, so stdio no longer needs to avoid the cancellable path when the thread pointer is not available. a number of cases remain where certain interfaces may crash if the system does not support a thread pointer. at this point, these should be limited to pthread interfaces, and the number of such cases should be fewer than before.
* fix incorrect rounding in printf floating point corner casesRich Felker2014-03-091-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | the printf floating point formatting code contains an optimization to avoid computing digits that will be thrown away by rounding at the specified (or default) precision. while it was correctly retaining all places up to the last decimal place to be printed, it was not retaining enough precision to see the next nonzero decimal place in all cases. this could cause incorrect rounding down in round-to-even (default) rounding mode, for example, when printing 0.5+DBL_EPSILON with "%.0f". in the fix, LDBL_MANT_DIG/3 is a lazy (non-sharp) upper bound on the number of zeros between any two nonzero decimal digits.
* fix buffer overflow in printf formatting of denormals with low bit setRich Felker2014-03-091-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | empirically the overflow was an off-by-one, and it did not seem to be overwriting meaningful data. rather than simply increasing the buffer size by one, however, I have attempted to make the size obviously correct in terms of bounds on the number of iterations for the loops that fill the buffer. this still results in no more than a negligible size increase of the buffer on the stack (6-7 32-bit slots) and is a "safer" fix unless/until somebody wants to do the proof that a smaller buffer would suffice.
* in fdopen, avoid setting O_APPEND flag if it's already setRich Felker2014-02-071-1/+2
| | | | | | | this saves a syscall in the case where the underlying open already took place with O_APPEND, which is common because fopen with append modes sets O_APPEND at the time of open before passing the file descriptor to __fdopen.
* fix ftello result for append streams with unflushed outputRich Felker2014-02-072-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | when there is unflushed output, ftello (and ftell) compute the logical stream position as the underlying file descriptor's offset plus an adjustment for the amount of buffered data. however, this can give the wrong result for append-mode streams where the unflushed writes should adjust the logical position to be at the end of the file, as if a seek to end-of-file takes place before the write. the solution turns out to be a simple trick: when ftello (indirectly) calls lseek to determine the current file offset, use SEEK_END instead of SEEK_CUR if the stream is append-mode and there's unwritten buffered data. the ISO C rules regarding switching between reading and writing for a stream opened in an update mode, along with the POSIX rules regarding switching "active handles", conveniently leave undefined the hypothetical usage cases where this fix might lead to observably incorrect offsets. the bug being fixed was discovered via the test case for glibc issue
* add __isoc99_vfscanf weak alias to vfscanfSzabolcs Nagy2014-01-081-0/+2
| | | | | this glibc abi compatibility function was missed when the scanf aliases were added.
* include cleanups: remove unused headers and add feature test macrosSzabolcs Nagy2013-12-126-9/+3
|
* minor vfprintf and vfwprintf changes to please static code analyzersSzabolcs Nagy2013-10-072-6/+11
| | | | add missing va_end and remove some unnecessary code.
* removed unused variable in vfwprintfRich Felker2013-10-041-2/+1
|
* fix special-case breakage in popen due to reversed argument orderRich Felker2013-09-011-1/+1
|
* 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.
* protect against long double type mismatches (mainly powerpc for now)Rich Felker2013-08-021-0/+7
| | | | | | check in configure to be polite (failing early if we're going to fail) and in vfprintf.c since that is the point at which a mismatching type would be extremely dangerous.
* fix uninitialized/stale use of alloc (%m modifier) flag in scanfRich Felker2013-07-202-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | for conversion specifiers, alloc is always set when the specifier is parsed. however, if scanf stops due to mismatching literal text, either an uninitialized (if no conversions have been performed yet) or stale (from the previous conversion) of the flag will be used, possibly causing an invalid pointer to be passed to free when the function returns.
* fix scanf %c conversion wrongly storing a terminating null byteRich Felker2013-06-222-4/+8
| | | | | this seems to have been a regression from the refactoring which added the 'm' modifier.
* implement 'm' modifier for wide scanf variantsRich Felker2013-06-061-7/+40
|
* implement the 'm' (malloc) modifier for scanfRich Felker2013-06-051-22/+48
| | | | | this commit only covers the byte-based scanf-family functions. the wide functions still lack support for the 'm' modifier.
* refactor wide-char scanf string handlingRich Felker2013-06-051-55/+32
| | | | | | this brings the wide version of the code into alignment with the byte-based version, in preparation for adding support for the m (malloc) modifier.
* simplify some logic in scanf and remove redundant invalid-format checkRich Felker2013-06-041-18/+8
|
* refactor scanf core to use common code path for all string formatsRich Felker2013-06-041-85/+52
| | | | | | | | | | | the concept here is that %s and %c are essentially special-cases of %[, with some minimal additional special-casing. aside from simplifying the code and reducing the number of complex code-paths that would need changing to make optimizations later, the main purpose of this change is to simplify addition of the 'm' modifier which causes scanf to allocate storage for the string being read.
* fix argument omission in ABI-compat weak_alias for fscanfRich Felker2013-04-061-1/+1
|
* Add ABI compatability aliases.Isaac Dunham2013-04-0511-0/+33
| | | | | | | | GNU used several extensions that were incompatible with C99 and POSIX, so they used alternate names for the standard functions. The result is that we need these to run standards-conformant programs that were linked with glibc.
* rewrite popen to use posix_spawn instead of fragile vfork hacksRich Felker2013-03-241-41/+41
|
* document self-synchronized destruction issue for stdio lockingRich Felker2012-12-101-0/+10
|
* always add memory streams to stdio open file listRich Felker2012-11-093-18/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | per interpretation for austin group issue #626, fflush(0) and exit() must block waiting for a lock if another thread has locked a memory stream with flockfile. this adds some otherwise-unnecessary synchronization cost to use of memory streams, but there was already a synchronization cost calling malloc anyway. previously the stream was only added to the open file list in single-threaded programs, so that upon subsequent call to pthread_create, locking could be turned on for the stream.
* clean up sloppy nested inclusion from pthread_impl.hRich Felker2012-11-082-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | this mirrors the stdio_impl.h cleanup. one header which is not strictly needed, errno.h, is left in pthread_impl.h, because since pthread functions return their error codes rather than using errno, nearly every single pthread function needs the errno constants. in a few places, rather than bringing in string.h to use memset, the memset was replaced by direct assignment. this seems to generate much better code anyway, and makes many functions which were previously non-leaf functions into leaf functions (possibly eliminating a great deal of bloat on some platforms where non-leaf functions require ugly prologue and/or epilogue).
* clean up stdio_impl.hRich Felker2012-11-0835-2/+83
| | | | | | | | | | | this header evolved to facilitate the extremely lazy practice of omitting explicit includes of the necessary headers in individual stdio source files; not only was this sloppy, but it also increased build time. now, stdio_impl.h is only including the headers it needs for its own use; any further headers needed by source files are included directly where needed.
* fix more unused variable warningsRich Felker2012-11-012-3/+2
| | | | | | | some of these were coming from stdio functions locking files without unlocking them. I believe it's useful for this to throw a warning, so I added a new macro that's self-documenting that the file will never be unlocked to avoid the warning in the few places where it's wrong.
* separate getc/putc from fgetc/fputcRich Felker2012-10-274-6/+25
| | | | | | | | | for conformance, two functions should not have the same address. a conforming program could use the addresses of getc and fgetc in ways that assume they are distinct. normally i would just use a wrapper, but these functions are so small and performance-critical that an extra layer of function call could make the one that's a wrapper nearly twice as slow, so I'm just duplicating the code instead.
* correct locking in stdio functions that tried to be lock-freeRich Felker2012-10-246-16/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | these functions must behave as if they obtain the lock via flockfile to satisfy POSIX requirements. since another thread can provably hold the lock when they are called, they must wait to obtain the lock before they can return, even if the correct return value could be obtained without locking. in the case of fclose and freopen, failure to do so could cause correct (albeit obscure) programs to crash or otherwise misbehave; in the case of feof, ferror, and fwide, failure to obtain the lock could sometimes return incorrect results. in any case, having these functions proceed and return while another thread held the lock was wrong.
* greatly improve freopen behaviorRich Felker2012-10-243-15/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. don't open /dev/null just as a basis to copy flags; use shared __fmodeflags function to get the right file flags for the mode. 2. handle the case (probably invalid, but whatever) case where the original stream's file descriptor was closed; previously, the logic re-closed it. 3. accept the "e" mode flag for close-on-exec; update dup3 to fallback to using dup2 so we can simply call __dup3 instead of putting fallback logic in freopen itself.
* remove useless failure-check from freopen (can't happen)Rich Felker2012-10-241-2/+2
|
* fix copy/paste error in popen changes that broke signalsRich Felker2012-10-211-1/+1
| | | | signal mask was not being restored after fork, but instead blocked again.
* fix usage of locks with vforkRich Felker2012-10-191-1/+1
| | | | | | __release_ptc() is only valid in the parent; if it's performed in the child, the lock will be unlocked early then double-unlocked later, corrupting the lock state.
* avoid raising spurious division-by-zero exception in printfRich Felker2012-10-181-1/+1
|
* overhaul system() and popen() to use vfork; fix various related bugsRich Felker2012-10-181-24/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | since we target systems without overcommit, special care should be taken that system() and popen(), like posix_spawn(), do not fail in processes whose commit charges are too high to allow ordinary forking. this in turn requires special precautions to ensure that the parent process's signal handlers do not end up running in the shared-memory child, where they could corrupt the state of the parent process. popen has also been updated to use pipe2, so it does not have a fd-leak race in multi-threaded programs. since pipe2 is missing on older kernels, (non-atomic) emulation has been added. some silly bugs in the old code should be gone too.
