- You can now use _gc(malloc()) in multithreaded programs
- This change fixes a bug where fork() on NT disabled TLS
- Fixed TLS code morphing on XNU/NT, for R8-R15 registers
OpenBSD's qsort() function is more secure than the ones used by
FreeBSD, NetBSD and MacOS. The best part is it goes faster too!
This change also imports the OpenBSD mergesort() and heapsort()
pthread_mutex_lock() now uses a better algorithm which goes much faster
in multithreaded environments that have lock contention. This comes at
the cost of adding some fixed-cost overhead to mutex invocations. That
doesn't matter for Cosmopolitan because our core libraries all encode
locking operations as NOP instructions when in single-threaded mode.
Overhead only applies starting the moment you first call clone().
This change fixes a nasty bug where SIG_IGN and SIG_DFL weren't working
as advertised on BSDs. This change also fixes the tkill() definition on
MacOS so it maps to __pthread_kill().
This change restores the .symtab symbol table files in our flagship
programs (e.g. redbean.com, python.com) needed to show backtraces. This
also rolls back earlier changes to zip.com w.r.t. temp directories since
the right way to do it turned out to be the -b DIR flag.
This change also improves the performance of zip.com. It turned out
mmap() wasn't being used, because zip.com was assuming a 4096-byte
granularity, but cosmo requires 65536. There was also a chance to speed
up stdio scanning using the unlocked functions.
fgets() is now 4x faster which makes Make 2% faster. Landlock Make now
has a builtin $(uniq ...) function that uses critbit trees rather than
functional programming. Since uniq is the most important function this
optimization makes our cold start latency 15% faster.
- Polyfill pselect() on Windows
- Add -O NOFILE flag to pledge.com
- Polyfill ppoll() on NetBSD, XNU, and Windows
- Support negative numbers and errno in sizetol()
- Add .RSS, .NOFILE, and .MAXCORE to Landlock Make
- Fix issue with .PLEDGE preventing touching of output files
- Add __watch() function (like ftrace) for logging memory changes
We now guarantee TMPDIR will be defined on a per build rule basis. It'll
be an absolute path. It'll be secure and unique. It'll be rm -rf'd after
the last shell script line in your build rule is executed. If $TMPDIR is
already defined, then it'll be created as a subdirectory of your $TMPDIR
and then replace the variable with the new definition. The Landlock Make
repository will be updated with examples shortly after this change which
shall be known as Landlock Make 1.1.1.
See #530
It turned out that specifying all SRCS and INCS as dependencies on the
pattern rules for all headers, caused `make` memory usage to skyrocket
from 40mb ot 160mb. This change also reduces the build graph another 4%.
