It's now possible to use execve() when the parent process isn't built by
cosmo. In such cases, the current process will kill all threads and then
linger around, waiting for the newly created process to die, and then we
propagate its exit code to the parent. This should help bazel and others
Allocating private anonymous memory is now 5x faster on Windows. This is
thanks to VirtualAlloc() which is faster than the file mapping APIs. The
fork() function also now goes 30% faster, since we are able to avoid the
VirtualProtect() calls on mappings in most cases now.
Fixes#1253
Commit bc6c183 introduced a bunch of discrepancies between what files
look like in the repo and what clang-format says they should look like.
However, there were already a few discrepancies prior to that. Most of
these discrepancies seemed to be unintentional, but a few of them were
load-bearing (e.g., a #include that violated header ordering needing
something to have been #defined by a 'later' #include.)
I opted to take what I hope is a relatively smooth-brained approach: I
reverted the .clang-format change, ran clang-format on the whole repo,
reapplied the .clang-format change, reran clang-format again, and then
reverted the commit that contained the first run. Thus the full effect
of this PR should only be to apply the changed formatting rules to the
repo, and from skimming the results, this seems to be the case.
My work can be checked by applying the short, manual commits, and then
rerunning the command listed in the autogenerated commits (those whose
messages I have prefixed auto:) and seeing if your results agree.
It might be that the other diffs should be fixed at some point but I'm
leaving that aside for now.
fd '\.c(c|pp)?$' --print0| xargs -0 clang-format -i
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.)
* [metal] Ensure DF is clear when calling C from exception handler
* [metal] Mark some internal routines and declarations as `@internal`
* [metal] Fix crash under UEFI when command line string is NULL
* [metal] Fix argc & argv[] setting, & VM page freeing, for UEFI
Part of the memory occupied by the argv[] contents was
erroneously used for page tables & then later erroneously
freed. The symptom was that argv[0] would show up as an
empty string ("").
This change fixes Cosmopolitan so it has fewer opinions about compiler
warnings. The whole repository had to be cleaned up to be buildable in
-Werror -Wall mode. This lets us benefit from things like strict const
checking. Some actual bugs might have been caught too.
The *NSYNC linked list API is good enough that it deserves to be part of
the C libray, so this change writes an improved version of it which uses
that offsetof() trick from the Linux Kernel. We vendor all of the *NSYNC
tests in third_party which helped confirm the needed refactoring is safe
This change also deletes more old code that didn't pan out. My goal here
is to work towards a vision where the Cosmopolitan core libraries become
less experimental and more focused on curation. This better reflects the
current level of quality we've managed to achieve.
- Found some bugs in LLVM compiler-rt library
- The useless LIBC_STUBS package is now deleted
- Improve the overflow checking story even further
- Get chibicc tests working in MODE=dbg mode again
- The libc/isystem/ headers now have correctly named guards
This change integrates e58abc1110b335a3341e8ad5821ad8e3880d9bb2 from
https://github.com/ahgamut/musl-cross-make/ which fixes the issues we
were having with our C language extension for symbolic constants. This
change also performs some code cleanup and bug fixes to getaddrinfo().
It's now possible to compile projects like ncurses, readline and python
without needing to patch anything upstream, except maybe a line or two.
Pretty soon it should be possible to build a Linux distro on Cosmo.
- ASAN memory morgue is now lockless
- Make C11 atomics header more portable
- Rewrote pthread keys support to be lockless
- Simplify Python's unicode table unpacking code
- Make crash report write(2) closer to being atomic
- Make it possible to strace/ftrace a single thread
- ASAN now checks nul-terminated strings fast and properly
- Windows fork() now restores TLS memory of calling thread
* [metal] Refactoring: separate out sys_writev_vga() and _vga_init() modules
* [metal] Read VGA info from BDA before long mode entry, not after
If using a pre-existing VGA text console, the VGA initialization
code now retrieves the cursor position & character height from
the BIOS data area while still in real mode — rather than
reading from the BIOS data area only after entering long mode.
(This should help make the code more correct, if Cosmopolitan
were to support UEFI graphics output in the future. If the
program were booted via UEFI, then the long mode IsMetal()
code would still be activated, but the BIOS data area might
not have been initialized in that case.)
This change also means that there are now a few more fields
in the `struct mman`.
* [metal] VGA console can now show "screen of death" upon a crash
There is now a new function _klog_vga(), which can be called
by kprintf() to output system messages — e.g. information about
CPU exceptions — on the VGA screen.
* [metal] CPU exception handler now dumps cr2 value
* [metal] Add demo of program crash reporting w/ bare metal VGA TTY
* [metal] Reduce size of "screen of death" code
* Test output of colors for VGA graphics modes in examples/vga.c
* [metal] Character output in VGA graphics modes is mostly working
* [metal] Mention magic key to switch video mode, at bootup
