On Windows, mmap() now chooses addresses transactionally. It reduces the
risk of badness when interacting with the WIN32 memory manager. We don't
throw darts anymore. There is also no more retry limit, since we recover
from mystery maps more gracefully. The subroutine for combining adjacent
maps has been rewritten for clarity. The print maps subroutine is better
This change goes to great lengths to perfect the stack overflow code. On
Windows you can now longjmp() out of a crash signal handler. Guard pages
previously weren't being restored properly by the signal handler. That's
fixed, so on Windows you can now handle a stack overflow multiple times.
Great thought has been put into selecting the perfect SIGSTKSZ constants
so you can save sigaltstack() memory. You can now use kprintf() with 512
bytes of stack available. The guard pages beneath the main stack are now
recorded in the memory manager.
This change fixes getcontext() so it works right with the %rax register.
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 addresses various open source compatibility issues, so that
we pass 313/411 of the tests in https://github.com/jart/libc-test where
earlier today we were passing about 30/411 of them, due to header toil.
Please note that Glibc only passes 341/411 so 313 today is pretty good!
- Make the conformance of libc/isystem/ headers nearly perfect
- Import more of the remaining math library routines from Musl
- Fix inconsistencies with type signatures of calls like umask
- Write tests for getpriority/setpriority which work great now
- conform to `struct sockaddr *` on remaining socket functions
- Import a bunch of uninteresting stdlib functions e.g. rand48
- Introduce readdir_r, scandir, pthread_kill, sigsetjmp, etc..
Follow the instructions in our `tool/scripts/cosmocc` toolchain to run
these tests yourself. You use `make CC=cosmocc` on the test repository
