* Reorder Launch arguments, pass aarch64 os
Third and fourth arguments are now identical between cosmo and Launch.
By passing sp as argument 4, we save a bit of register juggling.
Fourth argument (os) is now always passed by the loader on aarch64. It
is not yet processed by cosmo. Pushing this change separately, as the
cosmo side turns out to be somewhat more involved.
* cosmo2 receives os from loader
FreeBSD aarch64 now traps early rather than pretending to be Linux.
o/aarch64/examples/env.com still works on Linux and Xnu.
The ape loader now passes the program executable name directly as a
register. `x2` is used on aarch64, `%rdx` on x86_64. This is passed
as the third argument to `cosmo()` (M1) or `Launch` (non-M1) and is
assigned to the global `__program_executable_name`.
`GetProgramExecutableName` now returns this global's value, setting
it if it is initially null. `InitProgramExecutableName` first tries
exotic, secure methods: `KERN_PROC_PATHNAME` on FreeBSD/NetBSD, and
`/proc` on Linux. If those produce a reasonable response (i.e., not
`"/usr/bin/ape"`, which happens with the loader before this change),
that is used. Otherwise, if `issetugid()`, the empty string is used.
Otherwise, the old argv/envp parsing code is run.
The value returned from the loader is always the full absolute path
of the binary to be executed, having passed through `realpath`. For
the non-M1 loader, this necessitated writing `RealPath`, which uses
`readlinkat` of `"/proc/self/fd/[progfd]"` on Linux, `F_GETPATH` on
Xnu, and the `__realpath` syscall on OpenBSD. On FreeBSD/NetBSD, it
punts to `GetProgramExecutableName`, which is secure on those OSes.
With the loader, all platforms now have a secure program executable
name. With no loader or an old loader, everything still works as it
did, but setuid/setgid is not supported if the insecure pathfinding
code would have been needed.
Fixes#991.
At least in neovim, `│vi:` is not recognized as a modeline because it
has no preceding whitespace. After fixing this, opening a file yields
an error because `net` is not an option. (`noet`, however, is.)
This change ports APE Loader to Linux AARCH64, so that Raspberry Pi
users can run programs like redbean, without the executable needing
to modify itself. Progress has also slipped into this change on the
issue of making progress better conforming to user expectations and
industry standards regarding which symbols we're allowed to declare
This version has better error messages and safety checks. It supports
loading static position-independent executables. It correctly handles
more kinds of weird ELF program header layouts. A force flag has been
added to avoid system execve(). Finally the longstanding misalignment
with our ELF PT_NOTE section has been addressed.
