The C standard, when defining field width and precision, never gives
any limit on the values used for them (except, I believe, that they
fit within an int). In other words, if the user gives a field width of
32145 and a precision of 9218, the implementation has to handle these
values correctly. However, when such kinds of high numbers are used
with integer conversions, cosmopolitan is limited by an internal
buffer size of 144, which means precisions and field widths have to
fit within this, which violates the standard.
This means that for example, the following program:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
int main()
{
char buf2[512] = {};
int i = snprintf(buf2, sizeof(buf2), "%.9999u", 10);
printf("%d %zu\n", i, strlen(buf2));
}
would, instead of printing "9999 511" (the correct output), instead
print "144 144" under cosmopolitan.
This patch fixes this.
The C standard states that, within the context of a printf-family
function, when specifying the precision of a conversion specification:
> A negative precision argument is taken as if the precision were
> omitted.
- Quoth the C Standard, 7.23.6.1. The fprintf function
Cosmopolitan instead treated negative precision arguments as
though they had a value of 0, which was non-conforming. This
change fixes that. Another issue we found relates to:
> For o conversion, it increases the precision, if and only if
> necessary, to force the first digit of the result to be a zero (if
> the value and precision are both 0, a single 0 is printed).
- Quoth the C standard, 7.23.6.1.6. The fprintf function
When printing numbers in their alternative form, with a precision and
with a conversion specifier of o (octal), Cosmopolitan wasn't following
the standard in two ways:
1. When printing a value with a precision that results in 0-padding,
cosmopolitan would still add an extra 0 even though this should be
done "if and only if necessary"
2. When printing a value of 0 with a precision of 0, nothing is
printed, even though the standard specifically states that a single
0 is printed in this case
This change fixes those issues too. Furthermore, regression tests have
been introduced to ensure Cosmopolitan continues to be conformant
going forward.

The standard states that, when the # flag is used:
> The result is converted to an "alternative form". [...] For x (or X)
conversion, a nonzero result has 0x (or 0X) prefixed to it.
- C standard, 7.23.6.1. The fprintf function
cosmopolitan fails to use the correct alternative form (0X) when the X
conversion specifier is used, instead using 0x, which is not
capitalized.
This patch fixes this, along with the several tests that test for the
wrong behavior.
The C standard states, for conversions using the d, i, b, B, o, u, x or X conversion specifiers:
> The precision specifies the minimum number of digits to appear; if
> the value being converted can be represented in fewer digits, it is
> expanded with leading zeros.
- C standard, 7.23.6.1. The fprintf function
However, cosmopolitan currently suppresses the addition of leading
zeros when the minus flag is set. This is not reflected by anything
within the C standard, meaning that behavior is incorrect.
This patch fixes this.
* Implement S conversion specifier for printf-related functions
POSIX specifies that a conversion specifier of S must be interpreted
the same way as %ls. This patch implements this.
* clang-format

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 some minor issues in ar.com
- Have execve() look for `ape` command
- Rewrite NT paths using /c/ rather /??/c:/
- Replace broken GCC symlinks with .sym files
- Rewrite $PATH environment variables on startup
- Make $(APE_NO_MODIFY_SELF) the default bootloader
- Add all build command dependencies to build/bootstrap
- Get the repository mostly building from source on non-Linux
This commit makes numerous refinements to cosmopolitan memory handling.
The default stack size has been reduced from 2mb to 128kb. A new macro
is now provided so you can easily reconfigure the stack size to be any
value you want. Work around the breaking change by adding to your main:
STATIC_STACK_SIZE(0x00200000); // 2mb stack
If you're not sure how much stack you need, then you can use:
STATIC_YOINK("stack_usage_logging");
After which you can `sort -nr o/$MODE/stack.log`. Based on the unit test
suite, nothing in the Cosmopolitan repository (except for Python) needs
a stack size greater than 30kb. There are also new macros for detecting
the size and address of the stack at runtime, e.g. GetStackAddr(). We
also now support sigaltstack() so if you want to see nice looking crash
reports whenever a stack overflow happens, you can put this in main():
ShowCrashReports();
Under `make MODE=dbg` and `make MODE=asan` the unit testing framework
will now automatically print backtraces of memory allocations when
things like memory leaks happen. Bugs are now fixed in ASAN global
variable overrun detection. The memtrack and asan runtimes also handle
edge cases now. The new tools helped to identify a few memory leaks,
which are fixed by this change.
This change should fix an issue reported in #288 with ARG_MAX limits.
Fixing this doubled the performance of MKDEPS.COM and AR.COM yet again.
- Better UBSAN error messages
- POSIX Advisory Locks polyfills
- Move redbean manual to /.help.txt
- System call memory safety in ASAN mode
- Character classification now does UNICODE
We can put this back the moment someone requests it. Pain-free garbage
collection for the C language is pretty cool. All it does is overwrite
the return address with a trampoline that calls free(). It's not clear
what it should be named if it's made a public API.
