* [metal] Copy program pages to extended memory at startup
* [metal] Reclaim base memory pages for later app use
* [metal] Load program pages beyond 1st 440 KiB to extended memory
o//examples/hellolua.com now runs correctly under QEMU (in
legacy BIOS mode).
* [metal] Place GDT in read/write segment
The CPU absolutely needs to alter the GDT when loading the
task register (via ltr). To account for this, I move the
GDT into a read/write data section. There is still a "rump"
read-only GDT in the text section that is used by the real
mode bootloader.
We also delay the loading of the task register (ltr) until
after the IDT and TSS are finally set up.
* [metal] Get examples/vga2.c serial output working for UEFI boot
* [metal] Get examples/vga2.c VGA output working for UEFI boot
* [metal] Allow munmap() to reclaim dynamically allocated pages
* Place TLS sections right after .text, not after embedded zip file

- Improve compatibility with Blink virtual machine
- Add non-POSIX APIs for joining threads and signal masks
- Never ever use anything except 32-bit integers for atomics
- Add some `#undef` statements to workaround `ctags` problems
This change adds a double linked list of threads, so that pthread_exit()
will know when it should call exit() from an orphaned child. This change
also improves ftrace and strace logging.
- clock_nanosleep() is now much faster on OpenBSD and NetBSD
- Thread joining is now much faster on NetBSD
- FreeBSD timestamps are now more accurate
- Thread spawning now goes faster on XNU
- Clean up the clone() code
- Clean up sigaction() code
- Add a port scanner example
- Introduce a ParseCidr() API
- Clean up our futex abstraction code
- Fix a harmless integer overflow in ParseIp()
- Use kernel semaphores on NetBSD to make threads much faster
- Exhaustively document cancellation points
- Rename SIGCANCEL to SIGTHR just like BSDs
- Further improve POSIX thread cancellations
- Ensure asynchronous cancellations work correctly
- Elevate the quality of getrandom() and getentropy()
- Make futexes cancel correctly on OpenBSD 6.x and 7.x
- Add reboot.com and shutdown.com to examples directory
- Remove underscore prefix from awesome timespec_*() APIs
- Create assertions that help verify our cancellation points
- Remove bad timespec APIs (cmp generalizes eq/ne/gt/gte/lt/lte)
This change makes some miracle modifications to the System Five system
call support, which lets us have safe, correct, and atomic handling of
thread cancellations. It all turned out to be cheaper than anticipated
because it wasn't necessary to modify the system call veneers. We were
able to encode the cancellability of each system call into the magnums
found in libc/sysv/syscalls.sh. Since cancellations are so waq, we are
also supporting a lovely Musl Libc mask feature for raising ECANCELED.
This change includes a fix to Fetch() where an out of bounds memory read
could happen, when the reverse proxied endpoint omits the content-length
header. This caused a bunch of NUL chars to appear on TurfWar's /statusz
since it wouldn't actually overrun the buffer, and if it did it would've
been caught by MODE=asan builds.
All tests pass now under WSL2. They should pass under WSL1 too, but only
WSL2 is integrated into the test fleet right now. This change also fills
in some gaps in the error numbers.
Fixes#665

- Introduce experimental JTqFpD APE prefix for non-Windows builds
- Invent blackhole daemon for firewalling IP addresses via UNIX named socket
- Add ProgramTokenBucket(), AcquireToken(), and CountTokens() APIs to redbean
If threads are being used, then fork() will now acquire and release and
runtime locks so that fork() may be safely used from threads. This also
makes vfork() thread safe, because pthread mutexes will do nothing when
the process is a child of vfork(). More torture tests have been written
to confirm this all works like a charm. Additionally:
- Invent hexpcpy() api
- Rename nsync_malloc_() to kmalloc()
- Complete posix named semaphore implementation
- Make pthread_create() asynchronous signal safe
- Add rm, rmdir, and touch to command interpreter builtins
- Invent sigisprecious() and modify sigset functions to use it
- Add unit tests for posix_spawn() attributes and fix its bugs
One unresolved problem is the reclaiming of *NSYNC waiter memory in the
forked child processes, within apps which have threads waiting on locks
- SQLite file locking now works on Windows
- SQLite will now use fdatasync() on non-Apple platforms
- Fix Ctrl-C handler on Windows to not crash with TLS
- Signals now work in multithreaded apps on Windows
- fcntl() will now accurately report EINVAL errors
- fcntl() now has excellent --strace logging
- Token bucket replenish now go 100x faster
- *NSYNC cancellations now work on Windows
- Support closefrom() on NetBSD
- use PAGE_RSRV bit (originally only for blinkenlights),
rather than PAGE_V bit, to indicate that a virtual address
page has been reserved — this should allow a program to
create & reserve inaccessible "guard pages"
- mark page table entries for non-code pages with PAGE_XD bit,
which should be supported on (circa) post-2004 x86-64 CPUs
The cosmopolitan command interpreter now has 13 builtin commands,
variable support, support for ; / && / || syntax, asynchronous support,
and plenty of unit tests with bug fixes.
This change fixes a bug in posix_spawn() with null envp arg. strace
logging now uses atomic writes for scatter functions. Breaking change
renaming GetCpuCount() to _getcpucount(). TurfWar is now updated to use
the new token bucket algorithm. WIN32 affinity masks now inherit across
fork() and execve().
libc/intrin/interrupts.S should not be linked in unless
an IDT (or TSS) is explicitly requested somewhere (i.e.
it should probably not be a mandatory module).
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
- Change IDT code so kprintf() isn't mandatory dependency
- Document current intentions around pthread_cancel()
- Make _npassert() an _unassert() in MODE=tiny
- fix rare thread exit race condition on openbsd
- pthread_getattr_np() now supplies detached status
- child threads may now pthread_join() the main thread
- introduce sigandset(), sigorset(), and sigisemptyset()
- introduce pthread_cleanup_push() and pthread_cleanup_pop()
- correctly check that virtual region we want to use is
unmapped, rather than accidentally clobbering existing pages
- avoid placing mmap'd memory at null virtual address
* [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
You can now do things like implement mutexes using futexes in your
redbean lua code. This provides the fastest possible inter-process
communication for your production systems when SQLite alone as ipc
or things like pipes aren't sufficient.
We need to make sure no existing mappings exist between the
MAP_GROWSDOWN page and the guard page, since otherwise it's
not going to be able to grow down thus causing difficult to
troubleshoot failures.
This change also found a few POSIX compliance bugs with errnos. Another
bug was discovered where, on Windows, pread() and pwrite() could modify
the file position in cases where ReadFile() returned an error e.g. when
seeking past the end of file. We also have more tests!
This change lets you use system() in an easier and portable way. The
problem with the call in the past has always been that bourne and
cmd.com on Windows have less than nothing in common, so pretty much the
only command system() could be used for across platforms was maybe echo.
cmd.exe is also a security liability due to its escaping rules.
Since cocmd.com implements 85% of what we need from bourne, in a really
tiny way, it makes perfect sense to be embedded in these functionss. We
get a huge performance boost too.
Fixes#644
