Renaming gc() to _gc() was a mistake since the better thing to do is put
it behind the _COSMO_SOURCE macro. We need this change because I haven't
wanted to use my amazing garbage collector ever since we renamed it. You
now need to define _COSMO_SOURCE yourself when using amalgamation header
and cosmocc users need to pass the -mcosmo flag to get the gc() function
Some other issues relating to cancelation have been fixed along the way.
We're also now putting cosmocc in a folder named `.cosmocc` so it can be
more safely excluded by grep --exclude-dir=.cosmocc --exclude-dir=o etc.
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.)
- Get mprotect_test working on aarch64
- Get completion working on python.com repl again
- Improve quality of printvideo.com and printimage.com
- Fix bug in openpty() so examples/script.c works again
This makes breaking changes to add underscores to many non-standard
function names provided by the c library. MODE=tiny is now tinier and
we now use smaller locks that are better for tiny apps in this mode.
Some headers have been renamed to be in the same folder as the build
package, so it'll be easier to know which build dependency is needed.
Certain old misguided interfaces have been removed. Intel intrinsics
headers are now listed in libc/isystem (but not in the amalgamation)
to help further improve open source compatibility. Header complexity
has also been reduced. Lastly, more shell scripts are now available.
- Fix Makefile flaking due to ZIPOBJ_FLAGS generation
- Make printf() floating point and gdtoa thread safe
- Polish up the runit / runitd programs some more
- Prune some more makefile dependencies
A new rollup tool now exists for flattening out the headers in a way
that works better for our purposes than cpp. A lot of the API clutter
has been removed. APIs that aren't a sure thing in terms of general
recommendation are now marked internal.
There's now a smoke test for the amalgamation archive and gigantic
header file. So we can now guarantee you can use this project on the
easiest difficulty setting without the gigantic repository.
A website is being created, which is currently a work in progress:

- Emulator can now test the αcτµαlly pδrταblε εxεcµταblε bootloader
- Whipped up a webserver named redbean. It services 150k requests per
second on a single core. Bundling assets inside zip enables extremely
fast serving for two reasons. The first is that zip central directory
lookups go faster than stat() system calls. The second is that both
zip and gzip content-encoding use DEFLATE, therefore, compressed
responses can be served via the sendfile() system call which does an
in-kernel copy directly from the zip executable structure. Also note
that red bean zip executables can be deployed easily to all platforms,
since these native executables work on Linux, Mac, BSD, and Windows.
- Address sanitizer now works very well
